GENERAL REQUIREMENTS
• Every year to two years, the power plant is shut down for an
outage.
• During outage most of maintenance work is done.
• Outages are used to perform activities that cannot be done when
the plant is operating:
− Reactor refuelling and other preparations (removal of reactor head,
upper internals),
− Preventive maintenance on equipment that runs all the time, for
example turbine-generator, which is inspected every 5 to 10 years,
also transformers are checked out each outage,
− Modifications or replacements of major equipment, as a steam
generator, that cannot be shutdown.
TYPES OF MAINTENANCE

Introduction
Maintenance programmes
Ageing management
• Takes into account the plant equipment ageing process through the
various activities of operation, surveillance and maintenance.
• Important to recognize ageing processes (physical degradation) –
in order to maintain long term operating characteristics.
• Assessments are made how the ageing of SSCs would increase the
potential for common mode failures - to provide assurance of the
availability of aged SSCs important to safety until the end of
service.
• The programme to manage the ageing process contains elements
such as:
− Identification of components that are susceptible to ageing degradation
that could affect plant safety;
− Adequacy of current methods for inspection, surveillance, maintenance
and testing for the detection of ageing problems;
− Appropriate records toBasic
enable the ageing process to be tracked.

MATERIAL CONDITIONS
Learning objectives
After completing this chapter, the trainee will be able to:
1. Explain the purpose of maintaining good material
conditions.
2. List some examples of good material conditions.
Learning objectives
After completing this chapter, the trainee will be able to:
1. Explain what materials management ensures.
2. Describe the procurement, storage and control of spare
parts.
3. Understand the importance of preventing counterfeit,
fraudulent and suspect items (CFSI) from entering the
facility, and in identifying and disposing of CFSI that
already exist.
Procurement
• Procurement specifications are clear and unambiguous, include
current technical and QA requirements and include the requirement
that no substitutions of materials or components should be made
without advising the purchaser.
• Same technical standards and QA requirements as the equivalent
installed plant items.
• Obtained only from suppliers who are qualified
• Spare parts must have all the necessary certificates.
• Receipt inspections - assurance of compliance with design,
procurement specifications and QA requirements.
• Process for certifying commercial-grade material.
• Materials and parts needed for outages are ordered well in advance
- to support the outage schedule.
