General Design Criteria/Standards cont'd

DOE-HDBK-6004-99

Penetration Assemblies in Containment Structures for Nuclear Stations (see also Regulatory Guide

1.63), should be used as a design guide.

Penetrations should be designed to meet the same requirements of robustness and leak tightness as

the penetrated containment or confinement (shield) system. The safety analysis should determine the

safety-class of each electrical confinement penetration.

6. Safety-class design criteria for electric power systems: Safety-class power supplies, including

batteries, emergency power supply from diesel generator(s), and the on-site electric distribution

system, should have sufficient independence, redundancy, and testability to perform their safety

functions assuming a single failure.

Acceptance is based on meeting, either wholly or in part as necessary, the following specific safety

design criteria:
