Identification and analysis of human errors underlying electrical/electronic component related events reported by nuclear power plants licensees

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:5455731
; ;
This report provides a useful and adaptable data base of over 700 human error events associated with the operation, testing, maintenance of instrumentation, control and in-plant electrical power components in licensed nuclear power plants. More than 8000 Licensee Event Report (LER) Abstracts were retrieved from the Department of Energy (DOE)/RECON Data Base, Nuclear Safety Information Center (NSIC) File for certain specific safety related systems. The data developed in this report were obtained by the application of a practical and workable human error identification methodology. The resulting human error data base is several times larger than would have been available based solely on licensee identification of human error. This data base is intended to provide a realistic assessment of the real human error populations obtainable from the LERs.
