Relevant regulations require computational-and-experimental evaluation of the seismic adequacy of systems and equipment of each NPP unit, including the experimental study of the dynamic behavior of several thousand items of equipment in actual condition. Possible options for reducing the scope of equipment subject to visual checks, dynamic testing, and computational seismic adequacy analysis are examined. Procedures for optimizing the scope of the computational-and-experimental analysis of seismic adequacy are proposed.
