1.1 Scope. This standard sets forth the requirements for a calibration program to control and verify the accuracy of measuring and test equipment used to ensure that important parts of a nuclear facility are in conformance with prescribed technical requirements and that data provided by testing, inspection, or maintenance are valid. These requirements also cover modifications and those activities occurring during the operating phase that are comparable in nature and extent to related activities occurring during the initial construction of the facility.
1.2 Applicability. The requirements of this standard apply to the measuring and test equipment used during the installation, Inspection, test, or maintenance activities performed at a nuclear facility. Measuring and test equipment does not include test equipment used for preliminary checks where data obtained will not be used to determine acceptability or be the basis for design or engineering evaluation.
The extent to which the individual requirements of this standard apply will depend upon the nature and scope of the work to be performed and the Importance of the item or service involved.
The requirements of this standard are intended to be applied to measuring and test equipment used in safety systems equipment. However, they may also be applied to measuring and test equipment used on nonsafety related systems equipment.
1.3 Responsibility. It is the responsibility of the organization invoking this standard to provide for the establishment and execution of a calibration program for the plant consistent with the provisions of this standard. The work of establishing practices and procedures and providing the resources in terms of personnel, equipment, and services to implement the requirements of this standard may be delegated to other organization.s, and such delegation shall be documented. In any case, the organization invoking this standard shall retain responsibility for overall program effectiveness.IEEE 498-1985 pdf download.
