IEC 61839:2000 pdf free download Nuclear power plants – Design of control rooms – Functional analysis and assignment
1 Scope and object
This International Standard specifies functional analysis and assignment procedures (FA and A, sometimes called allocation of functions) for the design of the control-room system for nuclear power plants and gives rules for developing criteria for the assignment of functions.
This standard supplements IEC 60964, which applies to the design of the control-room for nuclear power plants.
The purpose of this standard is to provide specific requirements for carrying out the functional analysis and assignment required in 3.1 and 3.2 of IEC 60964, and therefore supersedes the guidance given in A.3.1 and A.3.2 of IEC 60964.
This standard is applicable to the design of new control-rooms or to backfits (design renewal and design modifications) to existing control-rooms. In the latter case, particular caution is to be exercised to identify areas indirectly affected as well as those directly affected.

3 Definitions
For the purpose of this International Standard, the definitions given in IEC 60964 and the following definitions apply:
3.1
accident conditions
set of conditions identified in the safety or transient analysis reports and/or in the emergency operating procedures
3.2
functional assignment
distribution of functions among the human and automated constituents of a system
3.3
human machine interface, HMI
interface between operating staff and I and C system and computer systems linked with the plant. The interface includes displays, controls, and the Operator Support System interface (see man/machine interface in IEC 60964)
3.4
probabilistic risk assessment (PRA)
methodological approach to identify accident sequences that can follow from a broad range of initiating events; it includes the systematic and realistic determination of accident frequencies and consequences
3.5
control function
control actions performed by humans or machines for the accomplishment of a functional goal including the associated information acquisition and processing 1 )
