Non-Proprietary HF V&V Implementation Plan APR1400-E-I-NR-14008-NP, Rev. 1 ABSTRACT This document provides the implementation plan (IP) for the Human Factors Engineering (HFE)
Verification and Validation (V&V) program element, which is one of twelve program elements within the Advanced Power Reactor 1400 (APR1400) HFE Program. This IP governs the technical activities conducted within the verification and validation (V&V) program element by defining the scope and methodology of the V&V, including the output products generated and the qualifications of the personnel who will generate those products.
The main purposes of the V&V is to comprehensively determine that the human system interface (HSI) design conforms to HFE design principles and that it enables plant personnel to successfully perform their tasks to assure plant safety and operational goals.
The scope of the V&V program includes the main control room (MCR), remote shutdown room (RSR),
and voice communications when it can influence the MCR crews performance, between the MCR and the technical support center (TSC), emergency operations facility (EOF) and other off site emergency entities.
The V&V program also includes local control stations (LCS) associated with important human actions.
This report contains the V&V IP describing five major V&V activities that are in full compliance with NUREG-0711, Human Factors Engineering Program Review Model:
- 1. Sampling of operational conditions (SOC)
- 2. Design Verification
- 3. Integrated System Validation (ISV)
- 4. Human Engineering Discrepancy (HED) Resolution
- 5. Documentation of the results of the V&V program in a results summary report (ReSR)
It is impractical and unnecessary to review the entire HSI; therefore a SOC process is applied to support the selection of HSIs to include in the V&V. The resulting HSIs are applied as guidance for the design verification and are incorporated into realistic scenarios that are used in the ISV.
The design verification is composed of two types of evaluations, task support verification and human factors engineering (HFE) design verification. Task support verification will assess the HSI design to ensure that it supports the tasks identified in the task analysis (TA). The HFE design verification confirms that the HSI meets the HFE requirements of the Style Guide (Reference 2). The design verification is completed early in the V&V program so that any HSI modifications identified during the design verification and determined to require a change to the HSI design are completed before the start of the ISV.
The ISV confirms the acceptable performance of the integrated system through comprehensive performance based, human in the loop, testing on a verified dynamic MCR simulator using a set of scenarios based on the SOC. As needed, part task simulation and interface mockup are used to augment the application of the simulator. The use of these alternative test platforms is limited to cases where the use of the MCR simulator is not reasonable, e.g., local control stations identified by the treatment of important human actions (TIHA) and the TSC.
KEPCO & KHNP vii
Non-Proprietary HF V&V Implementation Plan APR1400-E-I-NR-14008-NP, Rev. 1 Acceptable performance of the HSI is based on measures of plant performance, human task performance, situation awareness, cognitive and physical workload, and anthropometric and physiological factors.
Measures are divided into two types, pass/fail and diagnostic.
The human engineering discrepancies process is used to track, through closure, all discrepant findings resulting from the V&V program.
The V&V program uses results from the operating experience review (OER), TA, TIHAs, staffing and qualifications (S&Q) and human system interface design (HD). The V&V program also applies the results of the procedure and training development programs.
The V&V program confirms that the HSI design conforms to HFE design principals and that plant staff are able to perform their tasks to achieve plant safety and plant operational goals. The V&V results are documented in the ReSR. The ReSR confirms that the V&V program was conducted in accordance with this implementation plan and the HSI design is acceptable.

- 1. PURPOSE The purpose of the human factors verification and validation (V&V) is to comprehensively determine, through evaluations and performance tests, that the integrated system design of the Advanced Power Reactor 1400 (APR1400) conforms to accepted human factors engineering (HFE) design principles, and that the design ensures that plant personnel are able to successfully perform their tasks to achieve plant safety and power production goals.
The V&V ensures that the integrated system design:
- Consistent with the APR1400 design
- Remains within acceptable performance conditions under a broad set of operating modes and conditions
- Provides the alarms, displays and controls required to support personnel tasks as defined by the task analysis (TA) and
- Meet the guidance in the Style Guide (Reference 2)
The goals of the V&V implementation plan (IP) are to:
- Identify a sample of operating conditions that represent a broad range of events that could be encountered during operation, reflect the characteristics expected to contribute to variations in the APR1400 performance, and consider the safety significance of the HSI
- Ensure that the human-system interface (HSI) inventory and its characteristics accurately represent the HSI system per the sampling of operational conditions (SOC)
- Verify that the HSI contains the required alarms, information, controls and task support as defined by the task analysis (TA)
- Validate that the HSI design (HD) supports the safe operation of the plant through an integrated system validation (ISV)
- Identify and evaluate human engineering discrepancies (HEDs) that result from the V&V
- To achieve its purpose and goals, the V&V uses the output from the:
- Operating experience review (OER)
- TA
- Treatment of important human actions (TIHA)
- Staffing and qualification (S&Q)
- HD
- Operating procedures development and training programs The V&V IP provides a description of the methods, measures, and acceptance criteria that are required to be performed to achieve an effective V&V evaluation that fully meets NUREG-0711, Human Factors KEPCO & KHNP 1
Non-Proprietary HF V&V Implementation Plan APR1400-E-I-NR-14008-NP, Rev. 1 Engineering Program Review Model.
The results from the V&V are documented in the V&V results summary report (ReSR), which serves to demonstrate that the V&V was performed in accordance with this IP and its implementation procedures and that the HD is acceptable.

Non-Proprietary HF V&V Implementation Plan APR1400-E-I-NR-14008-NP, Rev. 1
- 2. SCOPE The HF V&V Implementation Plan applies to all HSIs in the main control room (MCR), remote shutdown room (RSR), and voice communications when HSI design can influence the MCR crews performance, between the MCR and the technical support center (TSC), emergency operation facility (EOF) and other off site emergency entities. This IP also applies the V&V process to the HSIs at the local control stations (LCSs) associated with important human actions (IHAs).
The V&V process consists of five activities:
- 1. Sampling of operational conditions (SOC):
- Identify conditions that are representative of the range of events that could be encountered during plant operation,
- Reflect the characteristics expected to contribute to variations in the operation performance and consider the safety significance of HSIs
- 2. HFE design verification:
- Determine the HSI inventory and characterizing of the HSI displays, controls, and related equipment that are within the scope defined by the selected sample of operational conditions.
- Verify through task support verification that the HSI provides the needed alarms, information, controls, and task support defined by the TA for personnel performing their tasks.
- Verify through HFE design verification that the HD conforms to the Style Guide
- 3. Integrated system validation (ISV):
- Validate, through human in the loop performance tests, that the integrated system design (e.g.,
hardware, software, procedures, personnel elements) supports the safe operation of the plant.
- 4. HED resolution:
- Evaluate HEDs to determine whether they require corrections
- Identify design solutions to address HEDs that must be corrected
- Verify the completed implementation of the HED design solutions and documents the HED in the issue tracking system (ITS)
- 5. ReSR
- Documents the results of the V&V KEPCO & KHNP 3

- 1. Bias Bias is an aspect of an evaluation methodology that systematically modifies performance or its interpretation.
- 2. Important Human Actions (IHAs)
Important human actions consist of those actions that meet either risk or deterministic criteria in terms of plant safety.
- Risk-important human actions: Actions defined by risk criteria that plant personnel use to assure plant safety. There are absolute and relative criteria for defining risk important human actions.
For absolute criteria, a risk-important human action (RIHAs) is any action whose successful performance is needed to reasonably assure that predefined risk criteria are met. For relative criteria, the risk-important actions are defined as those with the greatest risk compared to all human actions. Risk-important human actions based on relative criteria can be identified quantitatively from risk analyses, and qualitatively from various criteria, such as an evaluation of the task performance based on considering performance-shaping factors.
- Deterministically identified important human actions: Deterministic engineering analyses typically are completed and described as part of the APR1400 DCD. Such analyses include instrumentation and controls (I&C) as described in Chapter 7 and transient and accident analyses, as described in Chapter 15. These deterministic analyses also credit human actions.
- 3. Human-System Interface (HSI)
A human system interface (HSI) is that part of the system through which personnel interact to perform their functions and tasks. Major HSIs include alarms, information displays, controls, and procedures. HSI use can be influenced directly by factors such as (1) the organization of HSIs into workstations (e.g., consoles and panels); (2) the arrangement of workstations and supporting equipment into facilities, such as a main control room, remote shutdown station, local control stations, the technical support center (TSC), and the emergency operation facility (EOF);
and (3) the environmental conditions in which the HSIs are used, including temperature, humidity, ventilation, illumination, and noise. The use of HSIs also can be affected indirectly by other aspects of plant design and operation, such as personnel training, shift schedules, work practices, and management and organizational factors, such as the safety culture of the plant staff.
- 4. Plant The operating unit of a nuclear power station, including the nuclear steam supply system, the turbine, electrical generator, and all associated systems and components (commonly referred to as the balance of plant). For a multi-unit plant, the term plant refers to all systems and processes associated with a specific units ability to produce electrical power, even though other units might share some systems or portions of systems.
- 5. Primary Tasks Primary Tasks are those tasks performed by personnel to supervise the plant (e.g., monitoring, detection, situation assessment, response planning, and response implementation).
KEPCO & KHNP 69
Non-Proprietary HF V&V Implementation Plan APR1400-E-I-NR-14008-NP, Rev. 1
- 6. Operating Procedures Written instructions providing guidance to plant personnel for operating and maintaining the plant, and for handling disturbances and emergency conditions.
- 7. Secondary Tasks Secondary tasks are those tasks personnel must complete when interfacing with the HSI, such as navigation through computer screens to find a needed display and HSI configuration.
Complicated secondary tasks often have negative effects on the performance of primary tasks.
- 8. Simulator A facility that physically represents the HSI configuration and that dynamically represents the operating characteristics and responses of the plant in real time.

Non-Proprietary HF V&V Implementation Plan APR1400-E-I-NR-14008-NP, Rev. 1 APPENDIX A NUREG-0711 REVIEW CRITERIA CONFORMANCE TABLE NUREG-0711 Rev. 3 Criteria IP Section(s) 11.4.1 Sampling of Operational Conditions 4.1 Sampling of As stated in Section 11.2, the objective of the Sampling of Operational Operational Conditions review is to verify that the applicant identified a sample of Conditions operational conditions that (1) includes conditions representative of the range of events that could be Table 4-1, 4-2, 4-3 encountered during the plants operation, (2) reflects the characteristics expected to contribute to variations in the systems performance, and (3) considers the safety significance of HSIs.
These sample characteristics are best identified by using a multidimensional sampling strategy to reasonably assure that V&V evaluations include variation along important dimensions.
The sampling methodology will identify a range of operational conditions to guide Task Support Verification, HFE Design Verification, and ISV. The NRCs review of this activity considers the dimensions to be used to identify and select conditions, and their integration into scenarios.

Non-Proprietary HF V&V Implementation Plan APR1400-E-I-NR-14008-NP, Rev. 1 NUREG-0711 Rev. 3 Criteria IP Section(s) forcing contexts known to challenge human performance. It also should include situations specifically designed to create human errors to assess the systems error tolerance, and the ability of personnel to recover from any errors, should these occur, for example:
- High-Workload Situations - The sample should include situations where variations in human performance due to high workload and multitasking situations can be assessed.
- Varying-Workload Situations - The sample should include situations wherein variations in human performance due to workload transitions can be determined.
These include conditions where there is (1) a sudden increase in the number of signals that must be detected and processed after a period in which signals were infrequent, and (2) a rapid reduction in the need for detecting signals and processing demands following a time of high sustained task-demand.
- Fatigue Situations - To the extent possible, the sample should include situations that may be associated with fatigue, such as work on backshifts and tasks performed frequently with repetitive actions, such as repeated inputs to a touch screen during plant operations or pulling rods.
- Environmental Factors - To the extent possible, the sample should include environmental conditions that may cause human performance to vary, e.g., poor lighting, extreme temperatures, high noise, and simulated radiological contamination.
11.4.1.2 Identification of Scenarios 4.1.2 Identification (1) The applicant should combine the results of the sampling to identify a set of Scenarios of V&V scenarios to guide subsequent analyses. Table 4-1, 4-2, 4-3 (2) The applicant should not bias the scenarios by overly representing the following: 4.1.2 Identification
- scenarios for which only positive outcomes are expected of Scenarios,
- scenarios that, for ISV, are relatively easy to conduct (e.g., scenarios Scenario Design should not be avoided simply because they are demanding to set up Requirements and run on a simulator)
- scenarios that, for ISV, are familiar and well structured (e.g., which address familiar systems and failure modes that are highly compatible with plant procedures, such as textbook design-basis accidents) 11.4.1.3 Scenario Definition 4.1.3 Scenario (1) The applicant should identify operational conditions and scenarios to be Definition used for HSI Task Support Verification, Design Verification, and ISV. The applicant should develop detailed scenarios suitable for use on a full- Reference 4 scope simulator. The level of detail should be comparable to what one would include in a test plan. For each one, the following information should 4.1.4 Scenario be defined to reasonably assure that important dimensions of performance Components are addressed, and to allow the scenarios to be accurately and consistently presented for repeated trials:
- a description of the scenario and any pertinent prior history necessary for personnel to understand the state of the plant at the start-up of the scenario
- specific initial conditions (a precise definition of the plants functions, processes, systems, component conditions, and performance parameters, e.g., similar to that at shift turnover)

(3) HED Identification - The applicant should identify an HED when a 4.4.3 HED characteristic of the HSI is "discrepant" from a guideline. Identification (4) HED Documentation - The applicant should document HEDs in terms of 4.5.9.5 HED the HSI involved, and how its characteristics depart from a particular Evaluation guideline. Documentation (5) Additional Considerations for Reviewing the HFE Aspects of Plant Modifications - In addition to any of the criteria above that relate to the modification being reviewed, the applicant should address the following considerations:
- The scope of HFE design verification may be restricted to the modified HSIs and their interactions with the rest of the HSIs.
- When both old and new versions of similar HSIs are available, this verification should offer reasonable assurance that their means of presentation and methods of operation are compatible, such that personnel performance will not be impaired when alternating the use of each one.
- HEDs should be identified for the following:
- failure to meet "personnel-identified" functionality in addition to that specified by system designers. When a digital system replaces an existing system, it is important to ensure that all operational uses of the former system were addressed, even those that were not intended in the original design. The replacement system's design should consider the ways in which personnel actually used the former system
- poor integration with the rest of the HSI
- poor integration with procedures and training
- Temporary configurations of the HSIs and plant systems that operations and maintenance personnel may use when the plant is not shutdown, should be reviewed to verify that their design is consistent with the principles of good HFE design, including consistency with the rest of the HSIs.
11.4.3 Integrated System Validation 4.5 Integrated As stated in Section 11.2, the objective of the ISV review is to verify that the System Validation applicant validated, using performance-based tests, that the integrated system design (e.g., hardware, software, procedures and personnel elements) supports the safe operation of the plant.
The scenarios for ISV should be performed using a simulator, or other suitable representation of the system, to determine the complete designs adequacy to support safe operations.
Validation should be performed after the resolution of all significant HEDs identified in verification reviews.
Applicants submitting an ISV IP for staff review should follow the general guidance in Section 1.2.2. The IP should describe the methodology of the tests that will be performed. It should identify the specific scenarios to be used, and detail them at a level that will support the staffs review, using the criteria stated in this section. The level of scenario detail should be comparable to that in a test plan. For each scenario, the applicant should specify the specific KEPCO & KHNP A6
Non-Proprietary HF V&V Implementation Plan APR1400-E-I-NR-14008-NP, Rev. 1 NUREG-0711 Rev. 3 Criteria IP Section(s) performance measures used for pass/fail along with the criteria for diagnostic evaluations to be used in assessing the results. The NRC will not accept submittals that merely provide a plan for developing the detailed ISV methodology.
11.4.3.1 Validation Team (1) The applicant should describe how the team performing the validation has independence from the personnel responsible for the actual design.
11.4.3.2 Test Objectives (1) The applicant should develop detailed test objectives to provide evidence that the integrated system adequately supports plant personnel in safely operating the plant, to include the following considerations:
- Validate the acceptability of the shift staffing level(s), the assignment of tasks to crew members, and crew coordination within the control room, between the control room and local control stations and support centers, and with individuals performing tasks locally. This should encompass validating minimum shift staffing levels, nominal levels, maximum levels, and shift turnover (see Section 6 for definitions).
- Validate that the design has adequate capability for alerting, informing controlling, and feedback such that personnel tasks are successfully completed during normal plant evolutions, transients, design-basis accidents, and also under selected, risk significant events beyond-design basis, as defined by sampling operational conditions.
- Validate that specific personnel tasks can be accomplished within the time and performance criteria, with effective situational awareness, and acceptable workload levels that balance vigilance and personnel burden.
- Validate that the HSIs minimize personnel error and assure error detection and recovery capability when errors occur.
- Validate the assumptions about performance on important HAs.
- Validate that the personnel can effectively transition between the HSIs and procedures in accomplishing their tasks, and that interface management tasks, such as display configuration and navigation, are not a distraction or an undue burden.
11.4.3.3 Validation Testbeds 4.5.3 Validation A testbed is the HSI representation used to perform validation evaluations. One Testbed approach an applicant can use to acceptably meet criteria 1 through 7 in this 3 Methodology section is to use a testbed that is compliant with "Nuclear Power Plant Overview Simulators for Use in Operator Training" (ANS, 2009).
(1) Interface Completeness - The applicants testbed should represent completely the integrated system. It should include HSIs and procedures 4.1 Sampling of not specifically required in the test scenarios. Operational (2) Interface Physical Fidelity - The testbeds HSIs and procedures should be Conditions represented with high physical fidelity to the reference design, including the presentation of alarms, displays, controls, job aids, procedures, communications equipment, interface management tools, layout, and spatial relationships.
(3) Interface Functional Fidelity - The testbeds HSI and procedure 4.5.1 Validation functionality should be represented with high fidelity to the reference Team design. All HSI functions should be available.
(4) Environmental Fidelity - The testbeds environmental fidelity should be 4.5.2 Test represented with high physical fidelity to the reference design, including Objectives the expected levels of lighting, noise, temperature, and humidity. Thus, for 1 Purpose example, the noise contributed by equipment, such as air-handling units, KEPCO & KHNP A7
Non-Proprietary HF V&V Implementation Plan APR1400-E-I-NR-14008-NP, Rev. 1 NUREG-0711 Rev. 3 Criteria IP Section(s) computers, and communications equipment should be represented in validation tests.
(5) Data Completeness Fidelity - Information and data provided to personnel should completely represent the plants systems they monitor and control.
(6) Data Content Fidelity - The testbeds data content fidelity should be 4.5.3 Validation represented with high physical fidelity to the reference design. The Testbeds presentation of information and controls should rest on an underlying model accurately mirroring the reference plant. The model should provide input to the HSI such that the information accurately matches that which is presented during operations.
(7) Data Dynamics Fidelity - The testbeds data dynamics fidelity should be represented with high fidelity to the reference design. The process model should be able to provide input to the HSI so that information flow and control responses occur accurately and within the correct response time; e.g., information should be sent to personnel with the same delays as occur in the plant.
(8) For important HAs at complex HSIs remote from the main control room (e.
g., a remote shutdown facility), where timely, precise actions are essential, the use of a simulator or mockup should be considered to verify that the requirements for human performance can be met. (For less important HAs, or for non complex HSIs, human performance may be assessed on analysis, such as task analysis, rather than on simulations.)
(9) The applicant should verify the conformance of the testbed to the testbed-required characteristics before validation tests are conducted.
11.4.3.4 Plant Personnel 4.5.4 Plant (1) Participants in the applicants validation tests should be representative of Personnel plant personnel who will interact with the HSI (e.g., licensed operators, (Participants) rather than training personnel or engineers).
(2) To properly account for human variability, the applicant should use a sample of participants that reflects the characteristics of the population from which it is drawn. Those characteristics expected to contribute to variations in system performance should be specifically identified; the sampling process should reasonably assure that the validation encompasses variation along that dimension. Determining Table 4-4 representativeness should include considering the participants license type and qualifications, skill/experience, age, and general demographics.
(3) In selecting personnel for participating in the tests, the applicant should consider the minimum shift staffing levels, nominal levels, and maximum levels, including shift supervisors, reactor operators, shift technical advisors, etc.
(4) The applicant should prevent bias in the sample of participants by avoiding the use of participants who:
- are members of the design organization
- participated in prior evaluations
- were selected for some specific characteristic, such as crews identified as good performers or more experienced 11.4.3.5 Performance Measurement 4.5.5 Performance ISV employs a hierarchal set of performance measures including measures of Measures plant performance, personnel task performance, situation awareness, cognitive workload, and anthropometric/physiological factors. Errors of omission and commission also are identified. A hierarchal set of measures provides sufficient information to validate the integrated system design and affords a basis to KEPCO & KHNP A8
Non-Proprietary HF V&V Implementation Plan APR1400-E-I-NR-14008-NP, Rev. 1 NUREG-0711 Rev. 3 Criteria IP Section(s) evaluate deficiencies in performance and thereby identify needed improvements. Pass/fail measures are those used to determine whether the design is or is not validated. Diagnostic measures are used to better understand personnel performance and to facilitate the analyses of errors and HEDs.

- time
- accuracy
- frequency
- amount achieved or accomplished
- consumption or quantity used
- subjective reports of participants
- behavior categorization by observers
- The analysis of primary tasks will support the identification of errors of omission (primary tasks not performed). Also, any actions and tasks that operators actually perform that deviate from the primary tasks should be identified and noted. These actions should be used to identify errors of commission.
(3) The applicant should identify the secondary task measures applicable to each scenario.
(4) The applicant should identify the measures of situation awareness applicable to each scenario (5) The applicant should identify the workload measures obtained for each scenario.

Information and (2) The applicant should specify when each measure is obtained (recorded), Validation Criteria such as continuously, at specific points during the scenario, or after the scenario ends.
(3) The applicant should describe the characteristics (see Table 11-1) of the performance measures.
Table 11-1 Characteristics of Performance Measures Table 4-6 Construct Validity A measure should represent accurately the aspect of performance it is intended to measure.
Reliability A measure should be repeatable; e.g., same behavior measured in exactly the same way under identical circumstances should yield the same results.
Sensitivity A measure's range (scale) and its frequency (how often data are collected) should be appropriate to that aspect of performance being assessed.

Benchmark The observed performance of the integrated system is compared with a criterion established using a benchmark system, e.g., a current system is predefined as acceptable.
Norm The observed performance of the integrated system is compared with a criterion using many predecessor systems (rather than a single benchmark system).
Expert Judgment The observed performance of the integrated system is compared with a criterion established by subject-matter experts.
(5) The applicant should identify whether each measure is a pass/fail one or a diagnostic one.

The procedures should detail the types of information that should be 5 Implementation logged (e.g., when the tests were performed, deviations from the test Team procedures and why they occurred, and any unusual events that may be important to understanding how a test was run or for interpreting the findings from it). The procedure also should state when the types of information should be recorded.
(2) The applicants test procedures should minimize the opportunity for bias in the test personnels expectations and in the participants responses.
11.4.3.6.3 Training Test Personnel 4.5.6.3 Test (1) The applicant should train test personnel (those who conduct or administer Personnel Training the validation tests) on the following:
- the use and importance of test procedures

- the importance of accurately documenting problems arising during testing, even if they were due to an oversight or error of those conducting the test 11.4.3.6.4 Training Participants (1) The applicants training of participants should be very similar to the training plant personnel receive. It should reasonably assure that the participants knowledge of the plants design, and operations, and the use of the HSIs and procedures represents that of experienced plant personnel.
Participants should not be trained specifically to carry out the selected validation scenarios.
(2) To assure that the participants performance is representative of plant personnel, the applicants training of participants should result in near asymptotic performance (e.g., stable, not significantly changing from trial to trial) and should be tested for such before conducting the validation.
11.4.3.6.5 Pilot Testing 4.5.6.5 Pilot (1) The applicant should conduct a pilot study before the validation tests begin Testing to offer an opportunity for the applicant to assess the adequacy of the test design, performance measures, and data-collection methods.

- Task Support Verification (Section 11.4.2.2, criterion 3) Criteria
- HFE Design Verification (Section 11.4.2.3, criterion 3 and criterion 5 for plant modifications)
- ISV (Section 11.4.3.5.2, criterion 4)
As stated in Section 11.2, the objectives of the NRC staffs review is to verify that the applicant has (1) evaluated HEDs to determine if they require correction, (2) identified design solutions to address HEDs that must be corrected, and (3) verified the completed implementation of these HED design solutions. The applicants resolution of HEDs is reviewed by the NRC staff using the guidance is this section. HED Resolution can be performed iteratively throughout V&V. Thus, issues identified during one V&V activity can be addressed and resolved before starting another.
(1) HED Analysis - The applicants HED analyses should include the 4.5.9.1 HED following: Analysis
- Personnel Tasks and Functions - The impact of HEDs on personnel tasks and the functions supported by those tasks.
- Plant Systems - The impact of HEDs on plant systems, considering the safety significance of that system(s), their effect on accident analyses, and their relationship to risk-significant sequences in the plants PRA.
- Cumulative Effects of HEDs - The analysis of HEDs should identify the 4.5.7.3 Extent of cumulative effects that multiple HEDs may have on plant safety and the Issue personnel performance. Determination
- HEDs as Indications of Broader Issues - As well as addressing specific HEDs, the applicants analysis should determine whether the HEDs point to potentially broader problems.
(2) Selection of HEDs to Correct - The applicant should conduct an evaluation 4.5.9.2 Selection of to identify which HEDs to correct. HEDs to Correct The evaluation should identify those HEDs that are acceptable as is (The Additional Information below provides examples).
The remaining discrepancies should be denoted as HEDs to be addressed by the HED-resolution process.
HEDs the applicant should correct are those with direct safety consequences, namely, those that could adversely impact personnel 4.5.9.2 Priority 1 performance such that the margin of plant safety may be reduced below 4.5.9.3 Priority 1 an acceptable level. Unacceptability is indicated by such conditions as violations of Technical Specification safety limits, operating limits, or limiting conditions for operations, or failing an ISV pass/fail criterion.
HEDs with potential safety impact, not as severe as those described above, also should be corrected unless the applicant justifies leaving the KEPCO & KHNP A12
Non-Proprietary HF V&V Implementation Plan APR1400-E-I-NR-14008-NP, Rev. 1 NUREG-0711 Rev. 3 Criteria IP Section(s) condition as is.
The applicant should correct HEDs that may adversely impact personnel performance in a way that has potential consequences to plant performance or SSC operability, and personnel performance or efficiency.
This may include failing to meet personnel information needs or violating HFE guidelines for tasks associated with plant productivity, availability, and protecting investment.
(3) Development of Design Solutions - The applicant should identify design solutions to correct HEDs. As part of the design solution, the application should evaluate the interrelationships of individual HEDs.
(4) Design Solution Evaluation - The applicant should evaluate design solutions to demonstrate the resolution of that HED and to ensure that new HEDs are not introduced. Generally, the evaluation should use the V&V method that originally detected the HED.
(5) HED Evaluation Documentation - The applicant should document each 4.5.9.5 HED HED, including: Evaluation
- the basis for not correcting an HED Documentation
- related personnel tasks and functions
- related plant systems
