Q

B21 - NS4

Which two trip channels, if simultaenously actuated, will not result in any NS4 isolations?

How does a loss of RPS effect NS4?

A

A&C or D&B - IB/OB logic Is AD & BC, 1/22 is AC & BD. IB/OB logic requires both channels in a trip system to get either an IB or OB isolation. Either of these two configurations will leave both types of isolations a single trip from actuation, but won’t actuate anything individually.

Loss of RPS will result in effected division receiving an isolation signal once RPS power is restored.

Q

B21 - NS4

RHR A is in use for SDC & a loss of B RPS occurs. What happens to SDC?

A

SDC is lost because SDC trip channels are split on their divisional power.

The IB & OB trip systems each have a channel supplied by each division (A is powered from RPS A & D is powered from RPS B).

This means that a loss of either RPS system will break continuity in the trip channel for BOTH IB & OB isolations.

Q

B33 - Recirc

How do RCP behave when starting in fast and slow?

A

Starting in fast, breakers close and pump increases to rated speed.

Starting in slow, pumps are initially started in fast and then the 5 breaker opens allowing the pump to coast down to 25% flow. From there, slow speed breakers will close.

Q

C11 - CRDH

What is the purpose of the FCVs in the CRDH system?

What position does the valve fail in a loss of power?

What position for a loss of air?

What position for a scram?

What are the implications of this valve closing all the way?

A

FCV maintains a constant DP across the CRDH system, maintaining a constant flow.

Valve is pnuematic.

On a loss of air, valve fails closed.

On a scram, valve fails closed.

When the FCVs are closed, all flow is directed to the charging header (except for a small amount allowed to pass by for cooling downstream), which is the motive force of the scram.

Q

R10 - Regarding Aux Transfer Switch function

What is the purpose of the Aux Transfer Switch?
Will the transfer still happen with the switch in “Off”?

A

Aux Transfer Switch will prevent powering an L bus from 2 seperate transformers, which would result in twice the fault current with a fault in the affected L bus.

With the switch in “Off,” the transfer still occurs.

Q

C41 - SLC

What are squib valves?

The continuity of the A SLC system squib valve is not illuminated. The operator determines that the bulb is good. What does this mean for system operability?

A

Squib valves are valves that have a disc loaded with an explosive charge. When SLC is initiated, these valves blow their disc to allow for SLC flow.

With the light not illuminated, that portion of the SLC system will not function, but the remaining squib valve will allow for full flow from both pumps due to the characteristics of the positive displacement SLC pumps.

C61 - Remote Shutdown

How do SRVs respond when RSD is in control?

If RSD is in control, how will SRVs respond to relief and ADS signals?

A

The three SRVs on the RSD panel will have their applicable ADS, relief, and/or setpoint set-down actuations overridden.

If in RSD control, ADS, SPSD, and relief will still occur on the other division, as well as the remaining 16 valves not on the RSD panel as applicable.

Q

E12 - RHR

Describe the logic requirements to cause an RHR LOCA signal to initiate.

A

It is an arrangement of series/parallel requirements that will initiate on two signals of either/or drywell pressure or reactor water level.

It is coincident protected in that you need two signals, but it can be a mix of either signal. See picture.

72
Q

E12 - RHR

Describe the sequence of events that occur when a LOCA signal is received.

A

RHR LOCA signal received
Diesel starts
RHR Pumps start

7.72# in Containment
&&
1.68# in DW || bypass keylock

Bypasses the containment pressure & time delay requirements.

75
Q

E12 - RHR

What pressure is required to allow for the RHR injection valve to open during a LOCA? (Blue Light Permissive)

What is the purpose of this permissive?

Explain how this permissive works.

What pressure is required to allow for the RHR pumps to actually inject into the vessel?

A

< 530# downstream of the injection valve.

Protects piping upstream of RHR injection valve (not rated for that high of pressure).

As soon as the light is illuminated, a 15 minute timer begins. The valve can be open within that 15 mins regardless of whether the light is on or not (to allow for venting leakby). The valve can always be opened when the light is illuminated, even past 15 minutes.

At less than 280#, RHR pumps can actually inject.

76
Q

E12 - RHR

Which RHR signals/actuations can not be overridden?

A

Containment Spray
10 Min TD Close of the HX Bypass valve

77
Q

E12 - RHR

A RHR HX bypass valve is failed open due to a power issue.

How is the operability of LPCI & containment spray effected?

LPCI is operable.

Containment spray is not operable.

78
Q

E12 - RHR

Only RHR A & B have trips.

Trips on no suction path, overcurrent, or undervoltage.

79
Q

E12 - RHR

How do RHR pumps behave during a LOOP?

LOCA?

LOOP with a LOCA?

A

During a LOOP, the pumps will trip.

During a LOCA, C RHR Pump starts instantly upon signal receipt. A & B RHR pumps will start 5 seconds later.

During a LOOP with a LOCA, they will follow the LOCA rules as soon as power is restored to their busses.

80
Q

E12 - RHR

The RHR suction and Test return valves monitor each other as permissives.

Why are they monitoring each other, and in what arrangement are they monitoring?

How does this change when RHR is in RSD control?

A

They monitor each other to prevent enabling a drain path from the reactor vessel to the suppression pool.

The SDC suction isolation (E12-F006) monitors both the SP suction (E12-F004) & the Test Return to SP (E12-F024). If either of these valves are open, SDC suction isolation will not open.

The SP suction isolation monitors the SDC suction isolation, and will not open unless the SDC isolation is closed.

The Test Return valve monitors the SDC isolation and will not open unless the SDC isolation is closed.

While in Remote Shutdown control, the SP suction isolation does not monitor the SDC isolation.

81
Q

E12 - RHR

Describe the min flow valve logic for the RHR system.

When will the LPCS pump begin injecting into the core?

A

Auto open with Pump Brkr closed, < 1650 GPM flow for 8 seconds time delay.

At < 450#

82
Q

E21 - LPCS

Describe the sequence of events when LPCS initiates

A

RHR LOCA signal
Injection valve begins to open
LPCS pump starts
Test Return valve closes if open
Min flow valve opens with flow < 1350 GPM
Flow initiates to core @ < 450#

83
Q

E21 - LPCS

Describe how the LPCS pump behaves during the following:

LOOP
LOCA
LOOP with LOCA

A

During LOCA, pump will start 15 seconds after signal is received. This is to prevent overloading the LH-1-A xfmer.

During a LOOP, with a LOCA signal present and the pump online, the breaker for the LPCS pump will ride the bus and restart immediately upon restoration.

During a LOOP and a LOCA signal occurs, the pump will immediately restart upon restoration of power to the bus UNLESS power is not restored within 19 seconds, at which point it will follow the 15 second logic.

84
Q

E21 - LPCS

The LPCS injection valve has a permissive as indicated by a blue light. How does this permissive work?

When will this valve automatically open?

A

Blue light will illuminate when pressure downstream of the injection valve is < 600#.

This light will remain energized as long as pressure stays below this threshold.

When the light initially illuminates, the injection valve can be opened for UP TO 15 MINUTES, regardless of what pressure downstream of the injection valve indicates.

After this point, the valve will not open unless the permissive light is lit.

Injection valve will open automatically with a LOCA signal present and the permissive satisfied.

85
Q

E22 - HPCS

Describe how the HPCS pump works during the following:

LOOP
LOCA
LOOP with LOCA

A

During LOCA, pump will start 10 seconds after signal is received. This is to prevent overloading the LH-1-A xfmer.

During a LOOP, with a LOCA signal present and the pump online, the breaker for the HPCS pump will ride the bus and restart immediately upon restoration.

During a LOOP and a LOCA signal occurs, the pump will immediately restart upon restoration of power to the bus UNLESS power is not restored within 14 seconds, at which point it will follow the 10 second logic.

86
Q

E22 - HPCS

The HPCS pump & HPCS injection valves can be overridden.

When are these overrides functioning?

What is the difference between the pump & injection valve override logic?

How is the override reset?

A

These overrides can be implemented any time with a LOCA signal present.

The pump override logic will reset on a loss of power to its bus. The injection valve logic will not reset on a loss of power to its bus.

These overrides are not defeated until the LOCA initiation signal is cleared & the seal-in-reset pushbutton is depressed.

87
Q

E22 - HPCS

Describe the orientation of the HPCS initiation logic circuitry.

When can HPCS signal be defeated, and how can it be defeated?

A

HPCS Logic is 4 channels of Rx Water Level & 4 channels of Drywell Pressure arranged in a series/parallel circuit that allows for high redundancy while eliminated the possibility of a single instrument failure initiating HPCS.

The signal can ONLY be defeated in a high drywell pressure condition. If level is below level 2, the override will not work.

Override by depressing seal-in-reset pushbutton.

88
Q

E22 - HPCS

The HPCS SP suction isolation valve has permissives & automatic features associated with its opening. What are these permissives and automatic features?

Can these automatic features be overridden?

A

The HPCS SP suction isolation valve requires that the test return valves to the CST be shut before it can be opened. This is to prevent the possibility of pumping the SP to the CST.

The SP suction isolation valve will automatically open under two conditions: SP Level reaches 18.4’ or CST level lowers below 98,000 gallons.

These automatic open features can be defeated by taking the SP suction isolation to close once the valve has fully opened.

89
Q

E22 - HPCS

The HPCS CST suction isolation valve is normally open, and the preferred source for LOCA initiation.

What automatic features exist with this valve?

A

The CST suction isolation valve will open on a LOCA signal if the valve is closed and the SP suction isolation is closed. If the SP suction isolation is closed, it will not open.

If the SP suction isolation is closed, the CST suction isolation will automatically open ONLY if a LOCA signal is present.

90
Q

E22 - HPCS

The HPCS Injection valve has features associated with its automatic actuation.

What conditions will allow for the HPCS injection valve to open automatically?

If the HPCS injection valve logic is overridden, what will happen if the control switch is taken to Open when above L8 in the vessel?

If the HPCS injection valve is overridden, how does it respond to level changes in a LOCA condition?

A

The HPCS injection valve will automatically actuate itself to maintain reactor level between L2 & L8.

The valve will automatically open if a LOCA signal is present and either of the following conditions exist:
- Vessel level reaches L2
- Vessel level is below L8 & the High Water Level Seal-In reset pushbutton is depressed.

If the valve logic is overridden, the valve can be closed manually at any time, but the valve can only be opened if the high water level seal-in is not active.

The valve’s automatic features are disabled when the valve is overridden.

91
Q

E22 - HPCS

Describe the HPCS min flow logic

A

AUTO OPEN < 725 GPM && > 145#
AUTO CLOSE > 725 GPM || < 145#

92
Q

E51 - RCIC

Plant operating @ 100% power and a RCIC signal inadvertently initiates.

What automatic actions will occur when this scenario happens?

How would this scenario change if the plant was at a lower power? What else can change how this scenario unfolds?

Where does this trip signal get indication of reactor power?

Is there a way to defeat this trip signal?

A

The RFPTs & the Main Turbine will trip in 4.5 minutes from the time the RCIC signal initiated.

If power was below 95%, this trip signal would be instantaneous, and a scram would be generated on MT trip.

There is a High Power RCIC Trip Setpoint switch, if taken from AUTO to DISABLE, the switch would cause the turbine trips instantly when the RCIC signal initiates.

This trip signal derives reactor power from Turbine 1st stage shell pressure. The 95% estimate is approx. 670#.

De-energizing D1B08 (Gland Seal Compressor Bkr) will de-energize the non-divisional logic responsible for this trip.

93
Q

E51 - RCIC

List the isolation signals for RCIC.

One of the signals is only present on Division 1, which is it? What makes this signal different than all the others?

Some signals have time delays. List time delays with their associated signals.

A

RCIC equipment room High Temperature
MSL pipe tunnel high temp (29 min time delay)
RHR equipment room high temperature
High steam flow sensed upstream of F063 (8 sec TD)
High steam flow downstream of F063 (8 second TD)
Steam supply low pressure
Turbine rupture disc exhaust line pressure high
Manual

The manual signal is only present on division 1. This signal is unique in that it will only actuate on an automatic system initiation, and only if the signal is sealed in.

94
Q

E51 - RCIC

How will the RCIC system respond to a RCIC turbine trip signal?

How will the RCIC system respond to a L8 signal?

A

The trip throttle valve will close, followed by the injection valves & min flow valve.

The steam admission valve will close, followed by the injection & min flow valve.

95
Q

E51 - RCIC

The RCIC steam admission valve (E51-F045) has some logic and permissive associated with its open & close signals. Describe it.

A

The F045 will only open & closed based off of Reactor level. No other signal will automatically actuate this valve. It will open on L2 & close on L8.

This valve has permissives associated with its opening. It will not open if the steam exhaust to SP valve (F068) is not open.

96
Q

E51 - RCIC

The RCIC turbine has various trips. List them, and the method in which they stop the RCIC turbine.

Which trips are active when RCIC is in remote shutdown control?

A

High exhaust pressure > 25#
Low pump suction pressure
RCIC isolation
Remote trip PB
Mechanical Overspeed

All trips will fast close the TTV except for the mechanical overspeed, which will trip the turbine locally & dump control oil.

The mechanical overspeed is the only trip active when in RSD control.

97
Q

E51 - RCIC

Most of RCICs electrical equipment is DC powered. Which valve motors are NOT powered by DC power.

A

The INBD/OTBD steam isolations
The steam supply bypass (for warming up the line)
The Exhaust Vac Bkr INBD/OTBD isolations

98
Q

E51 - RCIC

Describe the min flow logic for the RCIC min flow valve

Describe the logic for the RCIC injection valve

A

Min Flow
AUTO OPEN < 120 gpm && > 125# discharge pressure
AUTO CLOSE > 180 gpm || TTV or F045 shu

Injection
AUTO OPEN RCIC Initiation && F045 Open && TTV Open
AUTO CLOSE F045 closed || TTV closed

99
Q

E51 - RCIC

Describe the interlocks between the RCIC SP & CST suction isolation valves.

Which valve can be overridden? When will its override clear?

A

CST suction isolation valve is the preferred source & normally lined up.

If SP level reaches 18.4’ or CST level lowers below 98,000 gallons, the SP suction isolation will open.

If the SP suction isolation reaches full open, the CST suction isolation will close.

The CST suction isolation does not respond to changes in CST level or SP level. It will auto close if the SP suction isolation full opens, and auto open if there is a RCIC initiation signal & the SP suction isolation is not full open.

The SP suction isolation can not open if the test return valves to the CST are open.

The SP suction isolation can be overridden. The override will clear once the RCIC initiation signal clears.

List the automatic actions associated with xmitter failures

1 failed, 2 failed, and 3 failed xmitters

A

If 1 of 3 bad, median level will omit the highest signal and utilize the two remaining signals.

If 2 of 3 bad, system shifts to manual and uses the last good reading (will not adjust and control level automatically)

With 3 of 3 bad, system shifts to manual and fails to the low end of the Narrow Range band, propogating a Level 3 signal (will get a level 3 downshift)

A containment purge supply fan operates.

A CVDWP exhaust fan operates.

CVDWP exhausts to the U1 Plant Vent

122
Q

M15 - AEGTS

How does B/U Drywell Purge work?

A

Isolation valve taps in to the CGM system and sucked out by AEGTS system to treat and discharge.

This is the normal means of controlling DW pressure in Mode 1 conditions.

123
Q

M15 - AEGTS

What signals will auto-start the non-running AEGTS system?

How can you differentiate between the two?

Which starts can be overridden, if any?

A

AEGTS auto-starts on RHR LOCA or Low Flow Auto Start ( < 1500 CFM)

Easy way to differentiate is that the Electric Heating Coil will not start on a Low Flow auto-start.

Either start can be overridden off, but if the low flow condition still exists the auto-start will reinitiate as soon as the control switch is released from STOP position (it is spring returned to auto).

124
Q

B AEGTS exhausts to U2 Plant Vent

126
Q

M16/M17 - Vac Breakers

Explain how the Cont and DW vac breakers work.

Which isolation signal do these respond to, and how do they respond to it?

A

DW Vac Breaker MOVs are normally closed and will open when a vacuum condition exists in the DW. They will remain open until an operator closes them.

Cont Vac Breaker MOVs are normally open and will cycle closed in an overpressure condition, and cycle open when a vacuum exists.

Both systems will isolate on a BOP isolation. They will override their isolation signal when vacuum conditions exist and follow their normal logic.

127

Q

M25/26 - CR Vent

What signals cause a CR vent shift to emergency recirc?

When an initiation signal is overridden, how will CR vent respond to another intitation signal?

A

RHR LOCA, LOOP, High Gas Rad

If the signal is overridden, it will still shift to Emergency Recirc if one of the other signals comes in.

131
Q

M25/26 - CR Vent

How does CR Vent respond to the following ONIs:

ONI-C61 Evac of CR
ONI-D17 High Rad Levels in Plant
ONI-P52 - Loss of IA
ONI-R25-2 Loss of Non-Essential 120v Bus

A

ONI-C61
The system starts on high gas alarm on CR Rad monitor, this is an entry condition to ONI-C61

ONI-D17
High rad signals can cause the CRER system to automatically start

ONI-P52
If no bypass signal present (LOOP, LOCA, High Rad), damper will reposition to Emergency Recirc mode and trip the running train.

ONI-R25-2
If both K-1-A & K-1-N have lost power, the system will shift to emergency recirc due to loss of signal from CR Rad monitor

132
Q

What is the power & temperature limits of the recombiners?

At what hydrogen concentration must they be shutdown? Why?

A

1225F - 1400F

75kw or 1400F

At 6% hydrogen concentration they must be shutdown to prevent overheating.

135
Q

M51 - CGMC

What CGM compressor trips are active during LOCA conditions?

A

RHR Breaker open (no cooling supply)
RHR Cooling supply valve < 90% open (no cooling supply)
Compressor discharge outlet < 90% open (no discharge path)

136
Q

M51 - CGMC

How many hydrogen ignitors exist per division?

How many are required for the division of ignitors to be operable?

A

52 in Div 1, 50 in Div 2

> 90% of ignitors in a division must be operable.

137
Q

M51 - CGMC

Div 1 ignitors are online providing hydrogen control in containment and drywell when power is momentarily interrupted.

Power is restored, what is the status of the Div 1 hydrogen ignitors?

A

The ignitors are de-energized after power restoration.

This precludes starting of ignitors if hydrogen concentration is outside of its limits.

138
Q

M51 - CGMC

List the requirements for each hydrogen control system operability & the actions required when not met.

Where does each requirement live?

A

Ignitors
Two subsystems operable, with >90% of ignitors in each subsystem operable.

If they are both inoperable, verify hydrogen control by alternate means within 1 hour
Both recombiners & Both CGM Compressors

T.S 3.6.3.2

Q

N22 - Steam Drains

How do steam drains fail on a loss of power?
What about for loss of air?

A

They all fail open on loss of power or air except for the N22F420A-D which fail closed. (The drains right before the MSSVs)

143
Q

N22 - Steam Drains

Explain how the MSSV before seat drain setup works.

A

Normally root valve (F420A-D) is open. The drain valve downstream (F450A-D) will close when steam flow is > 50% rated TSF as indicated by C34. These valves open when flow is < 50% TSF.
