This document establishes requirements for the human-machine interface in the main control rooms of nuclear power plants. The document also establishes requirements for the selection of functions, design consideration and organization of the human-machine interface and procedures which are used systematically to verify and validate the functional design. These requirements reflect the application of human factors engineering principles as they apply to the human-machine interface during plant operational states and accident conditions (including design basis and design extension conditions), as defined in IAEA SSR-2/1 and IAEA NP-T-3.16. This document does not cover special purpose or normally unattended
control points, such as those provided for shutdown operations from outside the main control room or for radioactive waste handling, or emergency response facilities. Detailed equipment design is outside the scope of this document.Cross References:EN 60709EN ISO 11064 seriesIEC 62645IEC 60960ISO 11064IEC 62859IEC 61771EN 61513IEC 62003EN 61227IEC 61227IEC 61226EN 61772EN 60780-323IEC 60980IEC 60671EN 62241IAEA NS-G-1.9IEC 60965IEC 61839IAEA NS-G-1.11IEC 61513EN 60671IEC 60709IEC 61225EN 61226IAEA NP-T-3.16EN 60965IEC/IEEE 60780-323IEC 62241IEC 62646IEC 61772EN 61839IAEA Safety Glossary:2016IAEA SSG-39IEC 62954IAEA SSR-2/1:2012Incorporates the following:Amendment, July 2019
