Summary Normal accident theory and Swiss cheese model are influential models in studying system accident causation. This paper is going to help us to gain understanding of both models and to critically compare them. The first part of the study is an introduction of the both models. In the second part‚ Three Mile Island nuclear accident will be taken as an example to see how the models analyse causations of an accident. In this part‚ the fact of the accident will be presented first‚ then normal accident
