This standard provides general requirements, direction, and methods for qualifying Class1E electric cables, field splices, factory splices, and factory rework for service in nuclear power generating stations. Categories of cables covered are those used for power, control, and instrumentation services, including signal and communication cables. Field cables, wires, and splices are within the scope of this standard. Cables, wires, and splices within or integral to other devices(e.g., instruments, panels, motors, etc.) should be qualified using the requirements in the applicable device standard or IEEE Std 323TM-1983, as appropriate. However, this standard's requirements may be applied to the wire and cable within these devices.

IEEE Standard for Qualifying Electric Cables and Splices for Nuclear Facilities
General requirements and methods for qualifying electric cables, and splices for nuclear facilities are provided in this standard. Cable, wire, and splices within or integral to other devices (e.g., instruments, panels, motors) should be qualified using the requirements in the applicable device standard or IEEE/IEC Std 60780-323™:2016. However, the requirements set in this standard may be applied to the cable and splices within these devices. For qualification of fiber optic cable, refer to IEEE Std 1682™.
These standards have been replaced with a revised version of the standard, or by a compilation of the original active standard and all its existing amendments, corrigenda, and errata.
