Nuclear power plants - Instrumentation and control systems important to safety - Selection and use of wireless devices

IEC 62988:2018 establishes requirements relevant to the selection and use of wireless devices in instrumentation and control (I&C) systems important to safety used in nuclear power plants (NPPs). Those I&C systems may fully consist of wireless devices. This document applies to the I&C of new NPPs and to backfit of I&C in existing NPPs. Every wireless device or wireless system that is important to safety is in the scope of this document. Both fixed and mobile devices and all data types (voice, process data, etc.) are included within the scope if they provide a safety classified function. This document restricts the use of wireless devices to systems supporting category C functions according to IEC 61226, excluding explicitly their use for categories A and B. Non-safety devices and systems may use this document as guidelines, for example to ensure that important to safety devices are not disturbed.

Centrales nucléaires de puissance - Systèmes d'instrumentation et de contrôle-commande importants pour la sûreté - Sélection et utilisation des appareils sans fil

L'IEC 62988:2018 établit les exigences applicables pour la sélection et l’utilisation des appareils sans fil intégrés dans les systèmes d’instrumentation et de contrôle-commande (I&C) importants pour la sûreté employés dans les centrales nucléaires de puissance (CNP). Ces systèmes d’I&C peuvent être intégralement constitués d’appareils sans fil. Le présent document est applicable pour la construction des nouvelles CNP et pour la rénovation de l’I&C sur les CNP existantes. Tous les appareils sans fil ou les systèmes sans fil importants pour la sûreté relèvent du domaine du présent document. Les appareils fixes comme les appareils mobiles et tous les types de données (voix, données du procédé, etc.) sont couverts par le domaine du présent document s’ils réalisent une fonction classée de sûreté. Le présent document restreint l’utilisation des appareils sans fil aux systèmes réalisant des fonctions de sûreté de catégorie C telle que définie par l’IEC 61226, et exclut explicitement leur utilisation pour les catégories A et B. On peut utiliser le présent document comme un guide pour les appareils et les systèmes non classés de sûreté, par exemple pour s’assurer que les appareils importants pour la sûreté ne sont pas perturbés.

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 t
