1 Pressure retaining portions and supports of mechanical
equipment that form part of the reactor coolant pressure
boundary (RCPB) whose failure could cause a loss of reactor
coolant exceeding the reactor coolant normal makeup
capability
2 Pressure retaining portions and supports of primary
containment, and to pressure‐retaining portions and supports
that are not included in SC‐1 and are designed to accomplish
the following nuclear safety functions that:
1. provide fission product barrier or primary containment
radioactive material holdup or isolation;
2. provide emergency heat removal for the primary
containment atmosphere to an intermediate heat sink, or
emergency removal of radioactive material from the
primary containment atmosphere (e.g. containment spray);
3. introduce emergency negative reactivity to make the reactor
sub‐critical (e.g. boron injection system), or restrict the
addition of positive reactivity via pressure boundary
equipment;
4. ensure emergency core cooling where the equipment
provides coolant directly to the core (e.g. residual heat
removal and emergency core cooling); or
5. provide or maintain sufficient reactor coolant inventory for
