Guidelines for Inservice Testing at Nuclear Power Plants: Inservice Testing of Pumps and Valves and Inservice Examination and Testing of Dynamic Restr (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781499650679)

The staff of the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is issuing Revision 2 to the NUREG-1482, "Guidelines for Inservice Testing at Nuclear Power Plants," to assist the nuclear industry in establishing a basic understanding of the regulatory basis for pump and valve inservice testing (IST) programs and dynamic restraint (snubbers) examination and testing programs. This NUREG also provides information regarding the NRC's involvement in the development of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) Code for Operation and Maintenance of Nuclear Power Plants (OM Code). In this NUREG, the staff discusses OM Code inquiries, the inservice examination and testing of snubbers, pump and valve IST, the use of ASME code cases, conditions on the use of the OM Code, guidance for OM Code noncompliance, requests for alternatives to the OM Code at operating commercial nuclear power plants, and the development of IST programs for new reactors*.
