16
Q

What are the matrix power supplies and what happens if one were to fail?

A
  • PNA, PNB, PNC, PND

- A single failure of above will trip (2) RTSG breakers, no reactor trip.

17
Q

How do initiation circuits interface with matrix relays and how do they trip the reactor?

A
  • The relays at the bottom of the matrix ladders are associated with individual contacts in the initiation circuits.
  • If any of the (6) contacts in an initiation circuit is opened, the K relay is de-energized which opens & closes contacts (shunt & UV) in the associated RTSG, opening that breaker.
18
Q

What is the control power source for the RTSGs and what happens if one were to fail?

A
  • PKA, PKB, PKC, PKD

- A single RTSG associated with that power source would open, no reactor trip.

19
Q

Describe the High LPD/Low DNBR operational bypass.

A

The bypass may be manually input below 10-4% power to defeat trips from abnormal CEA alignment during startup. Bypass is automatically removed above 10-4% power.

20
Q

Describe the Low PZR Pressure operational bypass.

A

Allows RCS heatup/cooldown. Defeats RPS & ESFAS actuation. Is manually input below 400 psia and is automatically removed above 500 psia.

21
Q

Describe the Hi Log Power operational bypass.

A

May be manually bypassed above 10-4% power, and must be done before 10-2% trip. Is automatically removed at 10-4% on power reduction.

22
Q

What is the hierarchy for the trip channel bypass interlock?

A

Priority is given alphabetically and only 1 channel may be bypassed. (if C is bypassed and A is taken to bypass, C will come out of bypass and A will be in bypass)

23
Q

Describe operation of the Test PB for the bistable status indicators.

A

Depressing the button will illuminate all (3) lights. Releasing will only extinguish the BYPASS light. RESET must be pressed and will extinguish the P & T lights if conditions are clear.

24
Q

What parameters can be lowered via reset PB?

A

-Low PZR Pressure
(drops trip 400 psia below RCS pressure, 10s delay to press again)
-Lo SG Pressure
(drops trip 200 psia below SG pressure, 10s delay to press again)

25
Q

What will initiate a MSIS?

A
  • Low SG pressure = 960 psia
  • High SG Level = 91%
  • High Containment Pressure = 3psig
26
Q

How is an ESFAS signal manually input from the Aux Relay Cabinets? How is it cleared?

A
  • To initiate, both trip PBs must be depressed.

- To reset, only one PB need be pressed.

27
Q

What is unique about the AFAS manual initiation switches?

A

They are maintained (no spring return) sothe isolation and reg valves can open and close on level. If the switches are not returned to normal after actuation, the valve will remain open and may overfeed SGs.

28
Q

What are the SPS trips and how do they trip the reactor?

A
  • 2409 psia pressurizer pressure (PT 199A-D)

- RTSGs are opened & MG Set output contactors are opened.

29
Q

What conditions are required for DAFAS initiation?

A

-SG levels <20.3% WR with no MSIS or AFAS

MSIS defeats DAFAS to prevent feeding faulted generator

30
Q

What systems makeup the PPS?

A
  • RPS (CPC & analog trips)

- ESFAS, SPS, DAFAS

31
Q

What RPS controls/indications are available at the RSDP?

A
  • Low PZR pressure bypass switch
  • Low PZR pressure bypass permissive indicator
  • Low PZR pressure reset switch
  • Low SG pressure reset switch
  • Low PZR pressure pretrip indicator
  • Low SG pressure pretrip indicator
