Nuclear Safety Case · The safe operating envelope derived from the safety case

Operating rules and limits

The limits and conditions of operation, the basis for them, and the documents that keep the plant inside them or bring it back: operating rules, chemistry limits and emergency operating procedures.

“If this document changed, would the change have to be categorised as affecting the safety case, independently assessed, and possibly agreed with the regulator before it is made?”

  • Station and spent fuel storage operating rules
  • Limits and conditions of operation basis
  • Primary circuit chemistry limits
  • Emergency operating procedures
  • Normal operating procedures, which change through the operating instructions arrangements
