Safety objectives and acceptance criteria

This section should refer to the principles and objectives of nuclear safety, radiation protection and technical safety applicable to the particular plant design, as previously identified in the chapter on general design aspects [20, 21]. 

In addition, detailed acceptance criteria specific to structures, systems and components for different classes of events and types of analyses should be specified. These acceptance criteria should be such that frequent events should have minor consequences and events that may result in severe consequences should be of a very low probabihty. 

The specification of the detailed acceptance criteria should be well justified and documented in this part of the SAR. The recommendations on the specification of acceptance criteria provided in Ref. [4] should be considered in the preparation of this section of the SAR.
