Learning objectives

The purpose of this module is to present in a first part the principles of nuclear security and certain monitoring and evaluation tools that ensure or improve safety.

In particular, the differences between the park PERs and the RPR are discussed, whether in terms of:

  • operation (systems used in normal operation or accident, main regulations and principles of pilotage in mode T)
  • driving (composition of the driving team, presentation of the HMIs)
  • safety demonstration (principles of safety demonstration and design impact of the INB Order, differences from the English safety authority)

Second, major accidents at IMT, Chernobyl and Fukushima Daichi plants are presented and analysed. The lessons learned from these accidents and the resulting improvement in the safety of facilities are presented in both physical and organizational terms. In terms of illustration and in connection with the Fukushima accident, progress in preventing the risk of hydrogen explosion is detailed.
