Human error rates: initial quantification from instrumentation/control data
Conference
·
OSTI ID:6181447
This paper reports on a practical method of quantifying human errors made in conjunction with testing, maintaining, and operating specific instrumentation and control (I and C) components in reactor safety systems of licensed nuclear power plants. This quantification of human error is measured in terms of human error rate (HER); namely, the ratio of the number of human errors (of a specific type) to the number of opportunities for those particular errors. The HER's generated in this work provide a needed next step to the safety system valve and pump related human error endeavor reported this past year and detailed in NUREG/CR-1880.
