This Standard defines requirements for the periodic inspection of pressure retaining systems, components, and supports that form part of a CANDU nuclear power plant.

Periodic inspection (see Annex A for additional guidance) is considered to include the fluid boundary portions of components and piping, including their supports that comprise

(a) systems containing fluid that directly transports heat from nuclear fuel;

(b) systems essential for the safe shutdown of the reactor or the safe cooling of the fuel, or both, in the event of a process system failure;

(c) other systems or components whose failure could jeopardize the integrity of the systems described in Item (a) or (b), or both; and

(d) supplemental inspections for components exposed to conditions beyond the known experience base.

1.2  

This Standard addresses

(a)   failure aspects;

(b)   classification of areas subject to inspection;

(c)   provision for access;

(d)   inspection techniques and procedures;

(e)   personnel qualifications;

(f)    frequency of inspection;

(g)   responsibilities;

(h)   documentation;

(i)    records;

(l)    repair requirements.

1.3  

In CSA Standards, “shall” is used to express a requirement, i.e., a provision that the user is obliged to satisfy in order to comply with the standard; “should” is used to express a recommendation or that which is advised but not required; “may” is used to express an option or that which is permissible within the limits of the standard; and “can” is used to express possibility or capability. Notes accompanying clauses do not include requirements or alternative requirements; the purpose of a note accompanying a clause is to separate from the text explanatory or informative material.

This Standard has been updated to take into consideration the changes in testing and evaluating the energy efficiency of room air conditioners specified in the final rule (76FR1035, January 6, 2011) of the United States Department of Energy (DOE) publication 10 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), Part 430, appendix F, subpart B.

1.1 SCOPE

This standard applies to compressed natural gas hose assemblies which are used for NGV dispensing stations. to connect the dispenser to the refueling nozzle, or used as part of a vehicle on-board fuel system and or for gas lines which carry vented gas back to a safe location.

This standard applies to newly manufactured hose and hose assemblies for: 1

connecting the dispenser to the fueling nozzle, high pressure (class A)

flexible hoses used on fuel station equipment (class D )

            Note: Refer to ANSI NGV 3.1-2013 /CSA 12.3-2013, Part 22 for Class B and C vehicle  hoses.

Compliance with these certification and recertification processes provides evidence that the individual meets the minimum competence for knowledge skills and abilities to be designated as a Certified EDO (CEDO). The process is consistent with industry-accepted professional practice and legal recommendations.

This document has been developed to assist the following groups:

• EDO candidates
• CEDO’s
• Educational institutions and other organizations that design or offer vocational training programs for EDO candidates
• Educational institutions, gamma radiography licensees and other organizations that design or offer on-the-job or apprenticeship programs for EDO candidates
• Any organization or government department that administers, on behalf of the CNSC, the written examination or practical examination to EDO certification candidates or CEDO renewal of certification candidates.

This document has been developed through the participation of professionals from CSA Group, radiography industry and government departments and regulators through membership in the primary scheme committee and various sub-committees, and through surveys of the stakeholder population determined by the scheme committee.
