skos:definition "An identified 'event' that leads to 'anticipated operational occurrences' or <br/>
'accident conditions'.<br/>
This term (often shortened to <i><b>initiator</b></i>) is used in relation to 'event' reporting <br/>and 'analysis', i.e. when such 'events' have occurred. For the consideration of <br/>hypothetical 'events' considered at the 'design' stage, the term <i>postulated <br/>initiating event</i> is used.<br/>
<i><b>postulated initiating event (PIE).</b></i> An 'event' identified during 'design' as <br/>capable of leading to 'anticipated operational occurrences' or <i>accident <br/>conditions</i>.<br/>
The primary causes of 'postulated initiating events' may be credible equipment <br/>'failures' and 'operator' errors (both within and external to the 'facility') or human <br/>induced or natural 'events'.<br/>" (en)
