Electrical Equipment Qualification
We accompany you with our long-term experience and sophisticated knowledge of electrical equipment qualification
The challenge For electrical equipment a huge number of qualification requirements need to be met. They include environmental conditions such as temperature, humidity and air pressure as well as operational conditions or constraints encompass-ing electromagnetic interferences, switching operations, start-up operations, voltage fluctuations and short-circuit faults. Electrical equipment must also be qualified against hazards such as earthquakes, airplane crashes, explosion pressure waves, flooding and possible tsunamis, as well as against internal events. These include loss-of-coolant accidents (LOCAs), leakages, pipe breaks, fire, and severe accidents (e.g. core meltdown). The final challenge is the increasing use of digital components for electrical equip-ment.
The solutionAREVA NP’s qualification experts prepare and perform a wide range of tasks comprehensively in accordance with French RCC-E standards. These tasks include preparing a qualification program and supporting the suppliers with their test specification as well as offering supervision and support during the entire RCC-E test sequence. Our experts are also responsible for conducting a review of test results and reports and supporting the required design changes during the qualification campaign. Non-qualification man-agement is then carried out by the experts, as well as provision of reports such as the Qualification Summary Report and the Qualification Evaluation Synthesis Report (NSQ). Within the final step our experts are involved in to overcome the above-mentioned challenge is the issuance of a refer-ence file.
