- More about Protection against Internal Hazards in the Design of Nuclear Power Plants
Internal hazards in a nuclear power plant are critical to safety and must be considered in the design. This Safety Guide provides recommendations to regulatory bodies, designers, and licensees to assess and protect against these hazards, including fires, explosions, missiles, pipe breaks, flooding, collapse of structures, and falling objects.

The design of items critical to safety in a nuclear power plant must account for internal hazards. The primary objective is to incorporate appropriate features that effectively prevent and mitigate internal hazards, ensuring that safety is not compromised. This Safety Guide serves as a valuable resource for regulatory bodies, nuclear power plant designers, and licensees. It offers recommendations on hazard assessment, including the evaluation of combinations of hazards, and design concepts for safeguarding against internal hazards in nuclear power plants. These recommendations are aligned with the requirements outlined in IAEA Safety Standards Series No. SSR 2/1 (Rev. 1), titled "Safety of Nuclear Power Plants: Design."
Within the scope of this Safety Guide, a comprehensive review of internal hazards is conducted. These hazards encompass fires, explosions, missiles, pipe breaks, flooding, structural collapse, and the release of hazardous substances originating within the site boundary. A particular emphasis is placed on heavy load drop, electromagnetic interference, and the management of hazardous substances.
By addressing these internal hazards, the Safety Guide aims to enhance the safety of nuclear power plants and contribute to the overall reliability and security of the nuclear industry. It provides valuable guidance for stakeholders involved in the design, construction, and operation of nuclear power facilities, helping them to implement effective measures to mitigate the risks associated with internal hazards and maintain the highest standards of safety.
