    • Reliability of electric power facilities

  • Technical requirements
    • Compliance with related national rules such as Electric Utility Act, Atomic Energy Act, Building Act, Framework Act on Fire Services.

      • Developed by the adaptation of foreign reference standards applied to electric power facilities in Korea.

      • Identical to the reference standards except for some editorial changes such as the use of KEPIC’s own categorizing & numbering system.

      • Developed on the basis of advanced domestic technologies in the absence of proper foreign reference standards.

  • Administrative requirements
    • Based on ASME BPVC Sec.Ⅲ NCA “General Requirements” and modified to be suitable for the industrial circumstances and situation in Korea.

      • Established KEPIC’s own Certification System for nuclear safety-related items including nuclear certification, authorized inspection, RPE, etc.

      • Adopted the ISO 9000 quality system and the authorized inspection system for non-nuclear safety related and thermal power items.
