IEEE 690-2018

IEEE Standard for Design and Installation of Cable Systems for Class 1E Circuits in Nuclear Power Generating Stations

This standard provides direction for the design and installation of safety-related electrical cable systems, including associated circuits, in nuclear power generating stations. Also provided is guidance for the design, installation and performance requirements of those non-safety related cable systems that may affect the function of safety related systems. It provides guidance on applications of cable-penetration, fire stops, cable fire breaks, and cable-system enclosures for cable systems for Class 1E circuits.

P690
Standard for Design and Installation of Cable Systems for Class 1E Circuits in Nuclear facilities

This standard provides direction for the design and installation of safety-related electrical cable systems, including associated circuits, in nuclear facilities. Guidance is also provided for: - Design, installation, and performance requirements of those nonsafety related cable systems that may affect the function of safety related systems. - Applications of cable-penetration, fire stops, cable fire breaks, and cable-system enclosures for cable systems for Class 1E circuits.

No Active Standards

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.


No Superseded Standards

These standards have been removed from active status through a ballot where the standard is made inactive as a consensus decision of a balloting group.


No Inactive-Withdrawn Standards

These standards are removed from active status through an administrative process for standards that have not undergone a revision process within 10 years.
