Summary

Machine-generated summary

The buyer requires laboratory testing of KPoSG and KPoBOV type cables that are safety-relevant for Units 5 and 6 of Kozloduy NPP EAD. The purpose is to assess the cables' qualified service life and their ability to perform their required functions under harsh environmental conditions (LOCA), in line with Technical Specification No. 25.EP-2.TZ.1530. The scope includes developing a test plan for the laboratory investigation, testing two selected type samples of each cable type. For each cable type, one sample is aged to demonstrate a 5-year service life and the other a 10-year service life, with reference dates of 30 June 2029 for KPoSG and 30 June 2033 for KPoBOV. Testing includes accelerated thermal and radiation ageing and LOCA chamber exposure. A report with a conclusion on the demonstrated qualified service life must be delivered.
