Nuclear power plants - Instrumentation, control and electrical power systems important to safety - Categorization of functions and classification of systems

This document establishes, for nuclear power plants2, a method of assignment of the functions specified for the plant into categories according to their importance to safety. Subsequent classification of the I&C and electrical power systems performing or supporting these functions, based on the assigned category, then determines relevant design criteria. The design criteria, when applied, ensure the achievement of each function in accordance to its importance to safety. In this document, the criteria are those of functionality, reliability, performance, environmental qualification (e.g. seismic) and quality assurance (QA). This document is applicable to: - the functions important to safety that are performed by I&C systems and supported by electrical power systems (categorization of I&C functions), - the I&C systems that enable those functions to be implemented (classification of I&C systems), - the electrical power systems that support those functions (classification of electrical power systems). The systems under consideration provide automated protection, closed or open loop control, information to the operating staff, and electrical power supply to systems. These systems keep the NPP conditions inside the safe operating envelope and provide automatic actions, or enable manual actions, that prevent or mitigate accidents, or that prevent or minimize radioactive releases to the site or wider environment. The I&C and electrical power systems that fulfil these roles safeguard the health and safety of the NPP operators and the public. This document follows the general principles given in IAEA Safety Requirement SSR-2/1 and Safety Guides SSG-30, SSG-34 and SSG-39, and it defines a structured method of applying the guidance contained in those codes and standards to the I&C and electrical power systems that perform functions important to safety in a NPP. This document is read in association with the IAEA guides together with IEC 61513 and IEC 63046 in implementing the requirements of the IEC 61508 series. The overall classification scheme of structures, systems and components for NPPs can be summarized as follows by Figure 1.

Centrales nucléaires de puissance – Systèmes d'instrumentation, de contrôle-commande et d'alimentation électrique importants pour la sûreté – Catégorisation des fonctions et classement des systèmes

l'IEC 61226:2020 établit, pour les centrales nucléaires de puissance , une méthode d'affectation en catégories des fonctions spécifiées pour la centrale, sur la base de leur importance pour la sûreté. Le classement, sur la base de la catégorie attribuée, des systèmes d'I&C et d'alimentation électrique assurant ou contribuant à la réalisation de ces fonctions détermine alors les critères de conception appropriés. Les critères de conception, dès lors qu'ils sont appliqués, garantissent que chaque fonction est réalisée selon son importance pour la sûreté. Les critères retenus dans le présent document concernent la fonctionnalité, la fiabilité, les performances, la qualification aux conditions environnementales (par exemple, la qualification sismique) et l'assurance qualité (AQ). Cette édition inclut les modifications techniques majeures suivantes par rapport à l'édition précédente: - l'alignement sur les exigences, les recommandations et la terminologie de l'AIEA, surtout la prise en compte du document SSR 2/1 (ayant remplacé le NS-R-1) et du guide SSG 30; - l'extension du domaine d'application aux systèmes d'alimentation électrique; - le déplacement des exigences détaillées applicables aux fonctions et aux systèmes d'I&C dans une annexe normative, qui sera supprimée à l'issue de la mise à jour de l'IEC 61513.

CATEGORIZATION OF FUNCTIONS AND CLASSIFICATION OF SYSTEMS
FOREWORD

1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising

all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote

international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To

this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications,

Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC

Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested

in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-

governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely

with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by

agreement between the two organizations.

2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international

consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all

interested IEC National Committees.

3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National

Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC

Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any

misinterpretation by any end user.

4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications

transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence

between any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in

the latter.

5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity

assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any

services carried out by independent certification bodies.

6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.

7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and

members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or

other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and

expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC

Publications.

8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is

indispensable for the correct application of this publication.

9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of

patent rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.

International Standard IEC 61226 has been prepared by subcommittee 45A: Instrumentation,

control and electrical power systems of nuclear facilities, of IEC technical committee 45:

Nuclear instrumentation.

This fourth edition cancels and replaces the third edition published in 2009. This edition

constitutes a technical revision.

This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous

edition:

a) to align on IAEA requirements, recommendations and terminology, particularly to take into

account the replacement of NS-R-1 by SSR 2/1 and publication of SSG 30;
b) to extend the scope to electrical power systems;

c) to move the detailed requirements applying to functions and I&C systems to a normative

annex, which will be removed after updating IEC 61513.

INTRODUCTION
a) Technical background, main issues and organisation of the standard

This International Standard responds to an International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA)

requirement to identify and classify nuclear power plants important to safety items on the

basis of their functions and safety significance. With the application of the concept of

Defence in Depth, which is implemented through the combination of a number of

consecutive and sufficiently independent levels of protection, the functions important to

safety are distributed over several systems or subsystems. In addition, with programmable

digital items now being used for NPP instrumentation and control systems, each system or

sub-system often performs many functions. Therefore, it is the intent of this standard to

establish the criteria and methods to be used to:

– identify and assign the functions important to safety into categories, depending on their

contribution to the prevention and mitigation of postulated initiating events (PIE);

– classify accordingly the I&C and electrical power systems which are necessary to

perform these functions.

According to IAEA Safety Standard SSR-2/1 (Requirement 22), the method for classifying

the items important to safety shall be based primarily on deterministic methods,

complemented where appropriate by probabilistic methods. Several possible approaches

for use of probabilistic safety assessment (PSA) for classification are described in

IEC TR 61838.

b) Situation of the current standard in the structure of the SC 45A standard series

IEC 61226 is directly referenced by IEC 61513 and is the second level SC 45A document

that deals with the categorization of functions and classification of I&C and electrical

power systems.

For more details on the structure of the SC 45A standard series, see item d) of this

introduction.
c) Recommendation and limitation regarding the application of this document

Correct categorization of functions is essential to ensure the appropriate degree of

attention by the plant's designers, operators and regulatory authorities to the specification,

design, qualification, quality assurance (QA), manufacturing, installation, maintenance,

and testing of the systems that ensure the safety functions.

This standard establishes the criteria and methods to be used to assign the functions of a

NPP accomplished by I&C and electrical power systems to three categories A, B and C,

which depend on the importance of the function for safety. Functions with no direct safety

role are non categorized (NC).

The category to which a function is assigned determines technical requirements based on

providing the appropriate level of assurance that the function will be executed on demand

with the required performance and reliability and have the necessary environmental

durability and QA. The level of assurance to be shown for each of these aspects shall be

consistent with the importance of the function to safety.

d) Description of the structure of the IEC SC 45A standard series and relationships

with other IEC documents and other bodies documents (IAEA, ISO)
The top-level documents of the IEC SC 45A standard series are IEC 61513 and

IEC 63046. IEC 61513 provides general requirements for I&C systems and equipment that

are used to perform functions important to safety in NPPs. IEC 63046 provides general

requirements for electrical power systems of NPPs; it covers power supply systems

including the supply systems of the I&C systems. IEC 61513 and IEC 63046 are to be

considered in conjunction and at the same level. IEC 61513 and IEC 63046 structure the

IEC SC 45A standard series and shape a complete framework establishing general

requirements for instrumentation, control and electrical systems for nuclear power plants.

IAEA SSR-2/1 requirement 22 considering also requirements 4, 18 and 27.

oSIST prEN IEC 61226:2021
IEC 61226:2020  IEC 2020 – 7 –

IEC 61513 and IEC 63046 refer directly to other IEC SC 45A standards for general topics

related to categorization of functions and classification of systems, qualification,

separation, defence against common cause failure, control room design, electromagnetic

compatibility, cybersecurity, software and hardware aspects for programmable digital

systems, coordination of safety and security requirements and management of ageing.

The standards referenced directly at this second level should be considered together with

IEC 61513 and IEC 63046 as a consistent document set.

At a third level, IEC SC 45A standards not directly referenced by IEC 61513 or by

IEC 63046 are standards related to specific equipment, technical methods, or specific

activities. Usually these documents, which make reference to second-level documents for

general topics, can be used on their own.

A fourth level extending the IEC SC 45 standard series, corresponds to the Technical

Reports which are not normative.

The IEC SC 45A standards series consistently implements and details the safety and

security principles and basic aspects provided in the relevant IAEA safety standards and

in the relevant documents of the IAEA nuclear security series (NSS). In particular, this

includes the IAEA requirements SSR-2/1, establishing safety requirements related to the

design of nuclear power plants (NPPs), the IAEA Safety Guide SSG-30 dealing with the

safety classification of structures, systems and components in NPPs, the IAEA Safety

Guide SSG-39 dealing with the design of instrumentation and control systems for NPPs,

the IAEA Safety Guide SSG-34 dealing with the design of electrical power systems for

NPPs
