Revision Standard - Active.
Guidance for evaluating human-system performance related to systems, equipment, and facilities in nuclear power generating stations is provided. Specific evaluation techniques and rationale for their application within the integrated systems approach to plant design, operations, and maintenance described in IEEE Std 1023™ are summarized.

This document provides guidance for evaluating human-system performance related to systems, equipment, and facilities6 in nuclear power generating stations and other nuclear facilities. It summarizes specific evaluation techniques and presents rationale for their application within the integrated systems approach to plant design, operations, and maintenance described in IEEE Std 1023™.
This document provides guidance for the selection and application of human performance evaluation techniques. It summarizes various techniques and presents recommendations for their application. Tasks to which they may be applied include the following: a) Investigating human-system performance characteristics b) Testing design or operating approaches for adequacy c) Comparing alternative designs or configurations d) Evaluating the maintainability of the system This guide is for use by personnel who are familiar with the concepts of formal human factors analysis but not necessarily familiar with the details of specific techniques.
