NFPA 806 PDF

Help ensure a safe and responsible change process for fire protection programs of advanced nuclear reactor electric generating plants.

The need for improved fire protection in nuclear power facilities has been demonstrated through a variety of notable incidents in the United States and internationally. NFPA 806, Performance-Based Standard for Fire Protection for Advanced Nuclear Reactor Electric Generating Plants Change Process, provides comprehensive criteria for risk-informed fire protection in advanced nuclear power plants during their construction and all phases of operation, including degraded conditions and final shutdown and decommissioning.

This document is a fundamental resource for designers, code enforcers, installers and facility managers, or anyone else involved in plant change processes such as performing risk analysis, fire modeling, and plant operations. The standard offers guidance vital to help minimize the effects of fire on the integrity of plant components and on the safety of the public, plant personnel, and business operations in:

• Advanced light water reactors
• Advanced heavy water reactors
• Advanced gas-cooled reactors
• Advanced liquid metal reactors
• Other types of advanced reactors
