IEC 62765-2:2019 identifies minimum requirements and applicable practices for correcting and preventing any potential impacts on nuclear power plant (NPP) safety due to the ageing of temperature sensors, such as NPP resistance temperature detectors (RTDs) and thermocouples (TCs).
This document provides strategies, technical requirements, and recommended practices for the management of the ageing of temperature sensors important to safety in nuclear power plants (NPPs) to ensure that ageing can be identified and that suitable remedial actions are undertaken as necessary to demonstrate that the safety of the plant will not be impaired. This document is aligned with IEC 62342, which provides guidance on ageing management for instrumentation and control (I&C) systems important to safety in NPPsTechnology -

IEC 62765-1:2015 provides strategies, technical requirements, and recommended practices for the management of ageing to ensure that ageing of pressure transmitters important to safety in nuclear power plants (NPPs) can be identified and that suitable remedial actions are undertaken as necessary to demonstrate that the safety of the plant will not be impaired. This standard is aligned with IEC 62342, which provides guidance on ageing management for I&C systems important to safety in NPPs. This standard, IEC 62765-1, is the first part for pressure transmitters in the IEC 62765 sensor and transmitter series for pressure, temperature, neutron and other sensors.

IEC 62705:2014 applies to radiation monitoring system (RMS) installed in the nuclear power plants (NPPs). This standard gives requirements for the lifecycle management of RMSs and gives guidance on the application of existing IEC standards covering the design and qualification of systems and equipment. This standard may be applicable to other nuclear facilities (e.g. nuclear fuel storage and processing sites) by evaluating the differences from NPPs.

Technical committeeTypeAcronymIEC 62671CommitteePublished year2013Description
IEC 62671:2013 addresses certain devices that contain embedded software or electronically-configured digital circuits that have not been produced to other IEC Standards which apply to systems and equipment important to safety in nuclear power plants, but which are candidates for use in nuclear power plants. It provides requirements for the selection and evaluation of such devices where they have dedicated, limited, and specific functionality and limited configurability. The contents of the corrigendum of September 2016 have been included in this copy.

Technical committeeTypeAcronymIEC 62651CommitteePublished year2013Description
IEC 62651:2013 describes the requirements for thermocouples suitable for nuclear power plant (NPP) applications. Thermocouples are widely used in NPPs with other temperature measurement devices such as resistance temperature detectors. They are simple and robust and have some specific characteristics (range of measurement and maximum temperature) which make them uniquely suitable for some measurements. The requirements given in this standard for thermocouples include design, materials, manufacturing, testing, calibration, procurement, and inspection.

Technical committeeTypeAcronymIEC 62646CommitteePublished year2016Description
IEC 62646:2016 establishes requirements for the whole life cycle of operating procedures that the designer wishes to computerise. It also provides guidance for making decisions about which types of procedures should be computerised and to what extent. Once computerised, procedures are designated as "computer-based procedures" (CBP). This new edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition: clarification of the way in which the standard is to be used in conjunction with related standards.
This publication is to be read in conjunction with IEC 60964:2009 and IEC 61839:2000.

IEC 62645:2019 establishes requirements and provides guidance for the development and management of effective computer security programmes for I&C programmable digital systems. Inherent to these requirements and guidance is the criterion that the power plant I&C programmable digital system security programme complies with the applicable country’s requirements.
This document defines adequate measures for the prevention of, detection of and reaction to malicious acts by digital means (cyberattacks) on I&C programmable digital systems. This includes any unsafe situation, equipment damage or plant performance degradation.
This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition published in 2014. This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition:
a) to align the standard with the new revisions of ISO/IEC 27001;
b) to review the existing requirements and to update the terminology and definitions;
c) to take account of, as far as possible, requirements associated with standards published since the first edition;
d) to take into account the fact that cybersecurity techniques, but also national practices evolve.Technology -
Technical committeeTypeAcronymIEC 62566-2CommitteePublished year2020Description
IEC 62566-2:2020 provides requirements for achieving highly reliable HDL-Programmed Devices (HPDs), for use in I&C systems of nuclear power plants performing functions of safety category B or C as defined by IEC 61226.
The programming of HPDs relies on Hardware Description Languages (HDL) and related software tools. They are typically based on blank Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) or similar micro-electronic technologies such as Programmable Logic Devices (PLD), Complex Programmable Logic Devices (CPLDs), etc. General purpose integrated circuits such as microprocessors are not HPDs.
This document provides requirements on:
a) a dedicated HPD life-cycle addressing each phase of the development of HPDs, including specification of requirements, design, implementation, integration and validation, as well as verification activities associated with each phase,
b) planning and complementary activities such as modification and production,
c) selection of pre-developed components. This includes micro-electronic technologies and Pre-Developed Blocks (PDBs),
d) tools used to design, implement and verify HPDs.Technology -

IEC 62465:2010 provides strategies, technical requirements, and recommended practices for the management of normal ageing of cabling systems that are important to safety in nuclear power plants. The main requirements are presented in the body of this International Standard followed by a number of informative annexes with examples of cable testing techniques, procedures, and equipment that are available for the nuclear industry to use to ensure that ageing degradation will not impact plant safety.
