ed in accordance with criteria and standards (or their equivalent) cited in this SRP section, thereby ensuring that RCPB components will be tested to the highest quality standards practical.62 3.10-15 DRAFT Rev. 3 - April 1996 6. Compliance with Appendix B to 10 CFR Part 50 requires that applicants establish and maintain an acceptable quality assurance program, including design, testing, and records control. Appendix B to 10 CFR Part 50 applies to this SRP section because the reviewer evaluates design, testing, and records for the qualification of equipment, plus associated supports, designated as important to safety. Subsection II.1 describes testing and analysis related to seismic and dynamic qualification of equipment. Subsection II.3 describes recordkeeping requirements for seismic and dynamic qualification of equipment. ANSI/IEEE Std 344-1987, as endorsed by Regulatory Guide 1.100, provides additional guidance for the design, testing, and documentation of the seismic and dynamic qualification of equipment important to safety. Meeting the requirements of Appendix B to 10 CFR Part 50 provides assurance that designs, tests, and documentation related to qualification of equipment important to safety will comply with established standards and criteria, thereby ensuring that such equipment will be capable of performing its intended safety functions.63 7. Compliance with Section VI(a) of Appendix A to 10 CFR Part 100 requires that systems, structures, and components important to safety be designed to resist seismic events. Section VI(a) of Appendix A to 10 CFR Part 100 applies to this SRP section because the reviewer evaluates seismic and dynamic test and evaluation programs for electrical and mechanical equipment, plus associated supports, designated as important to safety. ANSI/IEEE Std 344-1987, as endorsed by Regulatory Guide 1.100, provides additional guidance for establishing acceptable seismic and dynamic test (or evaluation) qualification criteria for electric
