The CSA N285 series of Standards specifies requirements applicable to nuclear power plants in Canada and references the applicable requirements of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code (BPVC). The specific objectives of these Standards are as follows: to establish technical requirements for pressure boundary items of CANDU® power reactors, in a format that regulatory authorities can reference; to establish requirements for each class of system, component, or support, consistent with the Nuclear Safety and Control Act (Act) and its Regulations; to reference applicable requirements of the ASME BPVC where they are appropriate to CANDU® power reactors; to specify rules and material requirements for the design, fabrication, installation, quality assurance, and inspection of those pressure-retaining components and supports for which the ASME BPVC does not specify requirements; and to establish rules for the periodic inspection of pressure-retaining components in CANDU® nuclear power plants.
