Q

During 100% power operation one of the two operating Cooling Tower Pumps trip.
A rapid power reduction has been commenced per ONP26 as directed by ONP-14.
The Turbine Operator has elected to use the “Runback To 50%” option for reducing
Main Turbine load.
During the Runback the Turbine Operator notes the “HOLD” push button on the DEH
Operator Console is illuminated. Turbine power is 99% when the HOLD light
illuminated condition is noted.
The reason the “HOLD” pushbutton light is illuminated is that:
A. The runback has stopped and will not restart until the SETTER is adjusted.
B. Runback was selected while the Turbine control was in the MANUAL mode.
C. The light is illuminated in RUNBACK when ACTUAL is different from SETTER.
D. The attempt to initiate RUNBACK to 50% while in AUTO has failed.

A

C. The light is illuminated in RUNBACK when ACTUAL is different from SETTER.

A. INCORRECT. “RUNBACK” is a function of the Operator AUTO program. The
Setter does not have to be adjusted when the “Runback” option is selected.
This light is illuminated when ACTUAL is different from SETTER during
RUNBACK. It is a normal condition during RUNBACK and is expected.
B. INCORRECT. The Turbine must be in AUTO mode in order to select either
RUNBACK to 5% or Runback to 50%. RUNBACK is not available when in
MANUAL mode.
C. CORRECT. “RUNBACK” is a function of the Operator AUTO program. This
light is illuminated when ACTUAL is different from SETTER during RUNBACK.
It is a normal condition during RUNBACK and is expected to illuminate when the
ACTUAL turbine load becomes less than the load indicated in the SETTER.
D. INCORRECT. This is an expected condition for RUNBACK when the ACTUAL
load is different from the load indicated by the SETTER.

Q

The Plant is at 100% power.
SOLA Transformer, X-95, has been de-energized due to a problem with the transformer.
EK-0318, “TURBINE PANEL TROUBLE” has just annunciated.
The Operator checks the EH Priority 3 Alarms and finds that the alarm “UPS On bat” has annunciated.
The Auxiliary Operator sent to check the Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) reports
the “NORMAL” and “BATTERY” lights are flashing.
What is the consequence of having a UPS problem concurrent with a loss of SOLA transformer X-95?
A. The manual overspeed trip in the Main Turbine pedestal is the only overspeed protection if the UPS battery fails.
B. Alarm EK-0102, “TURBINE OVERSPEED TRIP” is lost if both DPU-2 and DPU-52 are reenergized.
C. Loss of both Overspeed Protection cabinets, DPU-2 and DPU-52, will result in a Main Turbine trip.
D. If DPU-2 power is interrupted, the turbine “Runback” feature is no longer available
for a plant emergency down power.

A

C. Loss of both Overspeed Protection cabinets, DPU-2 and DPU-52, will result in a Main Turbine trip.

16; SOP 8; LP-EHC, Rev 17; ARP-2, Attachment 1; ARP-1.
A. INCORRECT. A loss of power from the UPS batteries concurrent with SOLA
XFMR O.O.S. results in a loss of power to both OPC units (DPU-2 and DPU-52).
De-energizing both DPU-2 and DPU-52 result in a turbine trip.
B. INCORRECT. EK-0102 is initiated by 63/AST-1 on the AUTO Stop Oil system.
It is not associated with the DEH cabinet overspeed trips.
C. CORRECT. Loss of both DPU-2 and DPU-52 result in a DEH trip of the Main
Turbine. Loss of both of these units, which would occur if power is lost from
both L-81 and L-83, result in a total loss of Overspeed protection from the DEH
System, therefore the turbine trips.
D. INCORRECT. The turbine Runback feature is part of the DEH Operator AUTO
control and is not affected by the OPC cabinet power supply problem.
