  • Abstract
    This paper discusses continuing activity, since that reported by us two years ago,1 on the certifiable simulation of a seismic event applied to Class IE electrical equipment. It explains a variety of acceptable seismic simulation inputs. It provides sufficient mathematical background, application data for relative evaluation, and test data supporting the usage of the selected input signal.
