1/ Technology safety.
2/ Construction safety.
3/ Safety on fire and explosion prevention.
4/ The safe areas and corridors.
5/ The regulations on environmental protection.
6/ Withstanding the expected loads during operation and occurring breakdown faults.
7/ Do not create a chain breakdown fault from a single fault.
