ANS 54.1-2020 defines safety objectives; sodium fast reactor design criteria (SFRDCs); selection criteria for licensing-basis events; and criteria for the classification of structures, systems, and components (SSCs) that can be used by designers and regulators of SFR nuclear power plants. It is intended to provide the necessary guidance to the designer in order to "bridge" the existing light water reactor-focused general design criteria (GDCs) contained in Appendix A to 10 CFR 50 and other regulatory requirements to the development of their respective principal design criteria, while retaining the underlying safety principles of the GDCs.

ANS 53.1-2011 (R2016) applies to the safety design process for plants. This standard provides a process for establishing top-level safety criteria; safety functions; top-level design criteria; licensing-basis events; design-basis accidents; safety classification of systems, structures, and components (SSCs); safety analyses; defense-in-depth; and adequate assurance of special treatment requirements for safety-related SSCs throughout the operating life of the plant. This standard does not provide detailed guidance for design; other existing standards cover that.

This standard establishes the nuclear safety criteria and functional design requirements of structures, systems, and components of stationary pressurized water reactor (PWR) power plants. Operations, maintenance, and testing requirements are covered only to the extent that they affect design provisions. A methodology is given for classifying all equipment into one of three Safety Classes according to its importance to nuclear safety or into a Non-Nuclear Safety Class. Another methodology is given for identifying and categorizing into one of five Plant Conditions the normal operations and events for which the plant shall be designed. Acceptance criteria are given for each Plant Condition. Specific design requirements are given for each major system in a typical plant. These requirements are related to other, more specific design standards and are intended to amplify the criteria given in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 10, "Energy," Part 50, "Licensing of Production and Utilization Facilities," Appendix A, "General Design Criteria for Nuclear Power Plants".
