Abstract
The LESSEPS project was conducted in the framework of the Probabilistic Safety Assessment of the PALUEL power plant (PSA 1300), from 1986 to 1989. It has led to the creation of LESSEPS 1300, a fully computerized knowledge base on the PALUEL power plant, including methods, reliability models and programs. From the experience gained, we can draw two main conclusions: -this computerized and detailed knowledge base on a nuclear plant is a powerful tool to perform sensitivity studies, when functional assumptions or reliability data are changed. -to be used correctly, either by people who didn`t participate in its creation or for purposes for which it was not initially developed such an important knowledge base should have two essential characteristics: a great user-friendliness of the tools, and a great transparency, as regards the assumptions. Therefore, part of the `post-PSA 1300 study program` is devoted to: (1) the development of a workstation for reliability engineers, (2) an important methodological work to determine the validity range of the different methods used. (3) a validation program of these tools and of the methodological approach in the framework of practical studies.
