Abstract :
The ITER safety team, including the Joint Central Team (JCT) and Home Teams, has considered the hazards associated with the design. The nature of these hazards suggest general safety approaches and criteria. Considering the challenges of the ITER experimental mission, we identify principal safety functions and a basic safety design strategy to meet project safety and environmental criteria
