What is 10CFR50 Appendix B?
The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is responsible for licensing and monitoring the operation of nuclear utility power plants throughout the U.S. under legislation passed by Congress as Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations. Appendix B to Section 50, (i.e. 10CFR50 Appendix B) contains the 18 quality assurance criteria that the nuclear plant operator must meet. Plant operators pass these requirements down to their suppliers if you wish to sell materials, services, equipment, software, or other products for the operation of the facility, must also meet these requirements.
