Description
Summary:The findings of the Working Group on Independence Criteria, SC-6.5 of the Nuclear Power Engineering Committee, are presented. The Working Group reviewed several test reports on cable separation testing programs undertaken by electric power utilities to demonstrate adequate independence of electrical circuits within nuclear power plant systems. The materials and methodology used to conduct the tests are discussed. Test results are summarized, with recommendations for reductions and enhancements to the separation distances of IEEE Std. 384.< >
