Abstract
Fire loss data are received and compiled by various organizations and for a variety of purposes. Such information regarding fires within nuclear power plants is received by the NRC; the nuclear plant insurers (American Nuclear Insurers and Nuclear Mutual Limited); and such utility organizations as the Institute for Nuclear Power Operations, the Fire Protection Committee of Edison Electric Institute, and the TVA. Compilations of such data in forms suitable for frequency analyses and remedial research have occasionally been prepared; examples of such compilations are cited in this report, which also provides another such compilation that covers operating nuclear plants for the period 1978 through 1981. Limited statistical analyses of fires in that period are reported, together with recommendations for improved, continuous reporting and the availability of fire loss data.Keywords
