Prepare for the challenges of protecting light water nuclear power plants from fire and its potential effects on operations.

It’s critical to cultivate superior fire protection practices and strategies for light water nuclear power plants. NFPA 805, Performance-Based Standard for Fire Protection for Light Water Reactor Electric Generating Plants, outlines the procedures for implementing performance-based provisions to assist in improving nuclear safety, reducing radioactive release, and minimizing plant damage and interruption of business.

The standard applies to all phases of existing plant operation from fundamental fire protection program design and elements to the determination of fire protection systems and features. Requirements also cover fire protection during degraded conditions and decommissioning and permanent shutdown of light water reactor electric generating plants.
