REVIEW RESPONSIBILITIES Primary - Organization responsible for the review of instrumentation and controls Secondary - None Review Note: The revision numbers of Regulatory Guides (RG) and the years of endorsed industry standards referenced in this Standard Review Plan (SRP) section are centrally maintained in SRP Section 7.1-T (Table 7-1). Therefore, the individual revision numbers of RGs (except RG 1.97) and years of endorsed industry standards are not shown in this section. References to industry standards incorporated by reference into regulation (IEEE Std 279-1971 and IEEE Std 603-1991) and industry standards that are not endorsed by the agency do include the associated year in this section. See Table 7-1 to ensure that the appropriate RGs and endorsed industry standards are used for the review. 7.4-2 Draft Revision 6 – August 2015 I. AREAS OF REVIEW The objectives of the review are to confirm that the safe shutdown systems satisfy the requirements of the acceptance criteria and guidelines applicable to safety systems and that they will perform their safety functions during all plant conditions for which they are required. This SRP section describes the review process and acceptance criteria for those instrumentation and control (I&C) systems used to achieve and maintain a safe shutdown condition of the plant as required by Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) Part 50, “Domestic Licensing of Production and Utilization Facilities,” Appendix A, “General Design Criteria for Nuclear Power Plants,” General Design Criterion (GDC) 13, “Instrumentation and Control,” and GDC 19, “Control Room.” To the extent that the engineered safety feature (ESF) systems are used to achieve and maintain safe shutdown, the review of these systems in this section is limited to those features that are unique to safe shutdown and not directly related to accident mitigation. The features within the scope of SRP Section 7.4 may involve individual component
