Two nuclear power plants (NPPs) are in operation in Slovakia equipped with WWER440/V213 type reactors. The Jaslovske Bohunice V2 NPP has two reactors in operation, the Mochovce NPP has also two reactors in operation and another two reactor units are under construction which will be given into operation in 2013. Full power and shutdown level 1 and level 2 probabilistic safety assessment (PSA) as part of the plant safety report were performed for these plants by the RELKO PSA team. The role of PSA for NPPs is an estimation of the risks in absolute terms and in comparison with other risks of the technical and the natural world. Plant-specific PSAs are being prepared for the NPPs and being applied for detection of weaknesses, design improvement and backfitting, incident analysis, accident management, emergency preparedness, prioritization of Research & Development and support of regulatory activities. There are three levels of PSA, being performed for full power operation and shutdown operating modes of the plant:  Level 1 PSA: The dominant accident sequences leading to the core damage are identified and the core damage frequency is calculated. The strengths and weaknesses of the safety systems and procedures to prevent the core damage are also provided as results.  Level 2 PSA: The ways in which radioactive releases from the plant can occur are identified and the magnitudes and frequency of release are calculated. Detailed analyses of the containment are performed. Safety measures are proposed to minimize the release of radioactive materials into the environment after a severe accident.  Level 3 PSA: The public health and other societal risks such as contamination of land or food are estimated. Damage to people (number of fatalities, the number of injured, reduction of life expectancy) and damage to property (loss of agricultural products and of natural resources, destruction, the cost of relocating the population and decontaminating effecting areas, etc.) are identified and safety measures are proposed to be implemented to minimize the risk. The Nuclear Regulatory Authority does not require the level 3 PSA for NPPs in Slovakia, however, the performance of analyses is strongly recommended. There are two basic types of the plant outage: unplanned maintenance outages due to the repair of the components and planned refuelling outages. The differences are in:
