Abstract :
A test model was developed that conservatively envelops worst-case nuclear plant conditions and provides for economy of testing. The model was tested against a sequence of events including a single failure of the electrical-auxiliary system protective-device scheme coupled with the most vulnerable and likely raceway interactions
