Abstract
The process of standards development is reviewed using the "Criteria for the Periodic Testing of Nuclear Power Generation Station Protection Systems" as an example. Areas considered include the need for a standard, the requirements of a standards document, draft preparation, and the obtaining of consensus and approval. Some of the problems of the consensus process are described. Responsibilities of the engineering community are reviewed.
