Abstract

The Fukushima Nuclear Accident has attracted social public attention to the severe accident. The instruments used to monitor the processing of severe accident could perform the function correctly in the time frame required during and after the Severe Accident Management Guidance (SAMG). International and domestic regulations and standards are all required these instruments available during severe accident. However, it’s still not set down relevant standard that how to analyze the instrument survivability assessment and qualify these instruments. This paper introduces the requirements of relevant regulations and standards, factors, methods of instrument survivability assessment and technology status of instrument survivability assessment. On the basis of assessment method of second-generation plus nuclear power plants, the assessment method of HPR1000 was studied and confirmed. It is improved and optimized on environment, qualification requirement, etc.
