Standards for qualifying mechanical equipment in NPPs

[ccll1]

I am rather familiar with qualification of electrical equipment in nuclear power plants (such as IEEE 323, IEEE 344 etc.).

However, a extensive web inquiry about qualification of mechanical equipment did not yield any results (beside ASME NQA-1, which seems to discuss general quality requirements for manufacturers of mechanical equipment).

So what's the equivalent of IEEE 323 for mechanical equipment in NPPs?

There are a variety of ASME codes, and some ANSI/ANS standards.

There is the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel (BPV) Code, Section III.

Besides Title 10 of Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR), particularly part 50, there are NUREGs and Reg Guides, particularly NUREG-0800.
