SSPS and Eagle Flashcards
What are all the inputs to SSPS?
- Eagle 21
- Ni’s
- Seismic
- Field contacts
What are the field contacts that input to SSPS?
- RCP Breaker
- RCP UV
- RCP UF
- AST oil pressure
- SV position
What is the major function of:
eagle 21
SSPS
eagle 21 - determine if parameter exceeds setpoint
SSPS - determine if coincidence is met for an actuation
How many ways are there to actuate a slave relay?
What are the different ways?
two
- Master relay - provides 48 volts (control power) to close contact allowing 120 volts to loads from safeguards driver
- Test - provides 48 volts (control power) to close contact allowing 120 volts to loads from test panel
Do the Ni racks input into eagle 21?
- Yes, but only for OPAT and OTAT calculations, delta I is sent from Ni’s -> eagle 21 (LCP does calc)
- Ni’s determine own setpoints and send to SSPS directly
Why do the majority of channels in RPS de-energize to actuate?
Which channels energize to actuate?
- ensures channels are fail-safe except those that would cause major plant upset if actuated erroniously
- energize to actuate
- CNMT Spray actuation chnls
- Seismic trip chnls
- RCP bus UF chnls
- SLI
What does it mean if a channel bistable (postage stamp) is blinking?
The bistable is tripped but only by one train (A or B)
in MUX we set one train to monitor A+B => the trains are alternated when sending light to postage stamp. If blinking, we know one train actuated but other did not
What parameter affect OT delta T?
How do they affect it?
-
Tave
- Tave up -> setpoint down
- Tave down -> setpoint up
-
Ppzr
- Ppzr up -> setpoint up
- Ppzr down -> setpoint down
-
delta I
- delta I up -> setpoint down
- delta I down -> setpoint down
What parameters affect OP delta T?
How do they affect the setpoint?
-
Tave
- Tave up -> setpoint down
- Tave down -> no effect
OP delta T only has penaties, no bonus points
Which trip breakers give you P-4a?
P-4b?
What breakers does SSPS train A actuate?
SSPS train B?
- P-4a = RTB A + BYP A
- P-4b = RTB B + BYP B
- train A actuates: RTB A + BYP B
- train B actuates: RTB B + BYP A
How are the BYP rx trip breakers different from the RTB?
Which of the following trips does not directly actuate both the UV trip coil and Shunt trip coil?
Manual SI
Auto SI
Manual Rx trip
Auto Rx trip
- BYP do not have the UV aux coil => auto trips will not energize the shunt coil
- Manual SI does not de-energize the UV coil
- however all SI give you auto Rx trip signal
What are the “monitor Light boxes” indicating?
Briefly describe what is being monitored by Monitor Light Box:
A
B
C
D
- If valves or components are out of their required positions (based on plant conditions), (out of position = illuminated)
- A - ESF valves (pre actuation)
- B - Phase A and CVI valves
- C - SI, FWI, SG equipment
- D - Phase B and SLI
What are the “Bistable Status lights” (postage stamps) monitoring?
What are the P.S. to the lights?
- provides indication to control room of all input signals to ESFAS (trip or non-trip)(P-signals, C-signals, Rx trips, ESFAS actuations)
- Ch 1 - PY-14
- Ch 2 - PY-11A
- Ch 3 - PY- 12
- Ch 4 - PY-13A
What are the Power supplies to:
Monitor Box A
Monitor Box B
Monitor Box C
Monitor Box D
- A
- PY-12
- B
- Trn A PY-13A
- Trn B PY-12
- C
- PY-12
- D
- Trn A PY-13A
- Trn B PY-12
When do the “Monitor Light Boxes” provide indication of valves and components out of position?
When do the “Bistable Status Lights” provide indication of inputs to ESFAS?
- B, C, and D are armed 20 seconds after an actuation signal, then provide indication
- A is always armed and providing indication
- BSL are always providing indication of inputs
