Background===

Experience shows that lightning can pose operational threats to production and utilization facilities. Therefore, protection is essential to avoid malfunc tions and upsets that, in turn, can lead to reactor trips. Nuclear power plants and other facilities should have a well-designed and properly installed lightning protection system (LPS) to safeguard their SSCs from lightning strikes and the resulting secondary effects. To protect against the effects of lightning strikes, the LPS should incorporate strike termination devices, discharge down conductors, and a grounding system. To protect against the secondary effects of lightning strikes, such as potentially dis ruptive surges and EMI/RFI that can propagate to internal structures and cause damage to safety-rel ated systems, the LPS should also incorporate appropriate individual equipment grounding systems and surge protection devices (SPDs).

The NRC staff has reviewed IEEE Std. 665-1995, IEEE Std. 666-20 07, IEEE Std. 1050-2004, and IEEE Std. C62.23-2017 and dete rmined that, with certain clarifications, they are acceptable guidance for lightning protection for production and utilization facilit ies.

IEEE Std. 665-1995 (R2001) describes facility grounding practices and serves as the primary source of guidance on lightning protection for structures at po wer generating stations. As such, this guidance identifies the grounding practices that the electric u tility industry has generally accepted as contributing to effective grounding systems for personnel safet y and equipment protection in generating stations. This document also provides guidance for the design o f generating station grounding systems and grounding practices applied to generating station indoor an d outdoor structures and equipment.

IEEE Std. 666-2007 describes grounding practices for neutral gr ounding and grounding methods for medium-voltage equipment. As such, this design guide is int ended for application to generating station service systems that supply electric power to auxiliary equipment. It applies to all types of generating stations that produ ce electric power and is particularly applicable to stations in which the electric power service is required to perform continuously. Suc h a service system consists of a main auxiliary power distribution ne twork that might supply many sub systems (including direct current systems and Class 1E power systems), much of which is medium-vo ltage (2.4-13.8 kV) equipment.

This guidance addresses recommendations for neutral grounding, as well as the grounding of generating station auxiliaries. It also covers grounding method s for both low-voltage (120-480 V) and medium-voltage power service sy stems. The low-voltage grounding methods parallel similar guidance in IEEE Std. 665. In addition, this guidance document covers surge protection of transformers, switchgear, and motors, paralleling similar guidance in IEEE Std. C62.23.

IEEE Std. 1050-2004 describes design and installation practices regarding grounding methods for instrumentation and control (I&C) equipment. As such, this guid ance recommends grounding methods for I&C equipment to achieve a suitable level of protection for per sonnel and equipment, as well as suitable noise immunity for signal-ground references in generating stations. IEEE Std. 1050-2004 is

RG 1.204, Rev. 1, Page 4 comprehensive, in that it covers both theoretical and practical aspects of grounding and noise minimization.

Surge protection measures are vital for protection of the power plant, ancillary facilities that could impact safety, the switchyard, the electrical distributio n system, safety-related I&C systems, and communication systems from both direct lightning strikes and th e resulting power surges. SPDs should be applied at the entry and egress points for signal-, communicati on-, and power-line conductors. They should also be applied to any equipment that is thought to be v ulnerable to high-energy surges. The selection of SPDs typically depends on the location of the devi ces and the size(s) needed to prevent the energy from a lightning strike from impinging a facility or pie ce of equipment.

IEEE Std. C62.23-2017 describes surge protection application pr actices applicable to power generating stations. As such, this guidance consolidates many e lectric utility industry practices, accepted theories, existing standards/guides, definitions, and technical references as they specifically pertain to surge protection. This guidance document also provides information on proper surge protection techniques and interference reduction practices for communicati on, control, and protection circuits. The guidance covers the protection of transmission lines and switch yard equipment from direct lightning strikes (using overhead ground wires, tower footing resistance, counterpoise wires, and surge arresters on transmission lines); protection of distribution lines from dire ct lightning strikes, switching surges, and ferroresonance; and the selection of arrestors for distribution lines. The guidance covers the protection of both indoor and outdoor equipment (including transformers, moto rs, switchgear, etc.) from direct lightning strikes, incoming surges, internally generated surges, and ground potential rises. It also covers the protection of control and communication circuits and discus ses the beneficial effects of shielding, grounding, and cable routing in t he power plant buildings. In a ddition, the guidance covers the protection of remote ancillary facilities, dealing primarily with protecti on from direct lightning strikes and the surges induced on underground cables.

IEEE Std. 665-1995, IEEE Std. 666-2007, IEEE Std. 1050-2004, an d IEEE Std. C62.23-2017 reference other IEEE guidance documents that contain useful inf ormation but are not endorsed in this RG; these secondary references are listed in Appendix A for clarity. Two other useful secondary references are National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) Standard 780, Stan dard for the Installation of Lightning Protection Systems, (Ref. 5) and Underwriters Laboratories (UL) Standard 96A, Installation Requirements for Lightning Protection Systems, (Ref. 6). While the NRC staff is not endorsing these two standards due to their exclusion of electric power generati on facilities, staff notes that Annex B Principles of Lightning Protection and Annex D Inspection an d Maintenance of Lightning Protection Systems in NFPA 780 provide usef ul information on testing and maintenance practices that licensees and applicants may wish to reference in developing their own testing and maintenance practices.

Consideration of International Standards

The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) works with member states and other partners to promote the safe, secure, and peaceful use of nuclear technologies. The IAEA develops Safety Requirements and Safety Guides for protecting people and the en vironment from harmful effects of ionizing radiation. This system of safety fundamentals, safety requirements, safety guides, and other relevant reports, reflects an international perspective on what constitutes a high level of safety. To inform its development of this RG, the NRC considered IAEA Safety Requ irements and Safety Guides pursuant to the Commissions International Policy Statement (Ref. 17) an d Management Directive and Handbook 6.6, Regulatory Guides (Ref. 18).

This RG is consistent with the general principles of IAEA Speci fic Safety Guide No. SSG-34, Design of Electrical Power Systems for Nuclear Power Plants, issued March 2016 (Ref. 19), which

RG 1.204, Rev. 1, Page 5 provides guidance for lightning protection of internal and exte rnal systems and components important for safe plant operation.

Documents Discussed in Staff Regulatory Guidance

This RG endorses, in part, the use of one or more codes or sta ndards developed by external organizations, and other third-party guidance documents. These codes, standards, and third-party guidance documents may contain references to other codes, standards, or third-party guidance documents (secondary references). If a secondary reference has itself been incorporated by reference into NRC regulations as a requirement, then licensees and applicants mus t comply with that standard as set forth in the regulation. If the secondary reference has been endorsed in a RG as an acceptable approach for meeting an NRC requirement, then the standard constitutes a met hod acceptable to the NRC staff for meeting that regulatory requirement as described in the specific RG. If the secondary reference has neither been incorporated by refe rence into NRC regulations nor endorsed in a RG, then the secondary reference is neither a legally-binding requirement nor a gener ic NRC-approved acceptable approach for meeting an NRC requirement. However, licensees and applicants m ay consider and use the information in the secondary reference, if appropriately justified, consistent with current regulatory practice, and consistent with applicable NRC requirements.

RG 1.204, Rev. 1, Page 6 C. STAFF REGULATORY GUIDANCE

The collective guidance in IEEE Std. 665-1995 2; IEEE Std. 666-2007; IEEE Std.1050-2004; and IEEE C62.23-2017 provide an acceptable approach to the NRC staf f for meeting the agencys regulatory requirements for adequate lightning protection of SSCs in produ ction and utilization facilities with the clarifications below.

1. LPSs should be inspected following installation, and systems sh ould be inspected on a regular, periodic basis throughout their lifetime. LPS systems should b e inspected whenever any alterations or repairs are made to a protected structure, as well as following any known lightning transient to the system. An LPS should be visually inspected at least annually. In areas where severe climatic changes occur, it is advisable to inspect the LPS semiannually or following extreme changes in ambient temperature. An in-depth inspection of the LPS every 3 -5 years to assess the effects of aging is also recommended.

2. Testing and maintenance procedures should be established for ea ch LPS. The frequency of testing and maintenance will depend on w eather-related degradation of protective features, frequency and severity of damage attributable to lightning transients, and re quired protection level. Also, an LPS testing and maintenance program should include (1) inspection o f all conductors and system components, (2) tightening of all clamps and splicers, (3) meas urement of the earth grounding resistance, (4) measurement of the resistance of ground terminals, (5) inspection or testing (or both) of SPDs to assess their effectiveness, (6) periodic testing and maintenance of earth grounding systems, (7) refastening and tightening of components and condu ctors as required, (8) inspection and testing when the LPS has been altered by additions to, or chang es in, the structure, and (9) complete records.

2 IEEE Std. 665-1995 Section 5.7.4 should reference IEEE Std. 142-1991 Subclause 4.2.3 rather than IEEE Std. 142-1991 Subclause 4.2.4.

RG 1.204, Rev. 1, Page 7 D. IMPLEMENTATION

The NRC staff may use this RG as a reference in its regulatory processes, such as licensing, inspection, or enforcement. However, the NRC staff does not intend to use the guidance in this RG to support NRC staff actions in a manner that would constitute bac kfitting as that term is defined in 10 CFR 50.109, Backfitting, and as described in NRC Management Direc tive 8.4, Management of Backfitting, Forward Fitting, Issue Finality, and Information Requests, (Re f. 20), nor does the NRC staff intend to use the guidance to affect the issue finality of an approval un der 10 CFR Part 52, Licenses, Certifications, and Approvals for Nuclear Power Plants. The staff also does not intend to use the guidance to support NRC staff ac tions in a manner that constitu tes forward fitting as that term is defined and described in Management Directive 8.4. If a licensee believ es that the NRC is using this RG in a manner inconsistent with the di scussion in this Implementation section, then the licensee may file a backfitting or forward fitting a ppeal with the NRC in accordance with the process in Management Directive 8.4.
