Appendix A
A1 What reaction is required from the safety-related parts of the control system(s) when faults occur?
A2 In which safety-related part(s) of the control system should faults be assumed?
A3 Do both random and systematic faults need to be considered?
A4 Which faults should be assumed in the components of the safety-related parts of the control system?
A5 Has the correct reference category been selected in respect of the requirement for detecting faults?
A6 What should the next action of the control system be if a fault has been detected?
A7 What is necessary to meet the maintenance requirement?
A8 What methods should be used for fault detection?
A9 Has the risk reduction been achieved?
A10 Have ergonomic principles being considered?
A11 Have the relationships between safety, reliability, availability and ergonomics been optimized in such a way that the safety measures will be maintained during the lifetime of the system, and do not tempt personnel to defeat the safety functions?
