c. HV-49-1F007 (INBOARD) and IF008 (OUTBOARD) closes
d. HV-50-1F112 (TRIP) valve closes Reactor Operator

Question # 54 (RO)

Choice Basis or Justification

a. Correct b., c., Incorrect, RCIC High level Shutdown will occur at +54", which will close the HV-50
d. 1F045A (Inlet). The HV-50-1 F112 valves will only trip on an actual turbine trip signal.

+54" is not a turbine trip but a high level shutdown. A high level trip has not effect on RCIC isolation.

Choice Basis or Justification

a. Correct. ADS supply is available and the valves will open without bypassing isolations. T-1 12 specifies "as necessary." The question examines the ability to direct the correct actions based in NS4 knowledge.
b. Incorrect. Group 7A is isolated on drywell pressure
c. Incorrect. Bypass in unwarranted, and the flow path incorrectly indicates ADS will function on bottle pressure through 7A valves. Bottles can only go through 7C valves
d. Incorrect. Bypass is unwarranted, and 7C valves are still open (isolation signal is 2 psid compared to drywell). Receiver pressure will not align to ADS valves because swap over to bottles occurred at 80 psig.

NOTES:

1. If a "Loss" condition is satisfied, the "Potential Loss" category can be considered satisfied. This is accounted for in the matrix contained in the Fission Product Barrier Table 3.2 used to determine the proper classification based on Fission Product Barrier status.
2. For all conditions listed in Fission Product Barrier Table 3.2, the barrier failure column is only satisfied if it fails when called upon to mitigate an accident. For example, failure of both containment isolation valves to isolate with a downstream pathway to the environment is only a concern during an accident.

If this condition exists during normal power operations, it will be an active Technical Specification Action Statement. However, during accident conditions, this will represent a breach of containment.

Limerick Generating Station 2002 NRC Initial Licensing Examination Question: 67 Attachment T-111 is provided Unit 2 plant conditions are as follows:

"* SCRAM and loss of ALL RPV injection sources

"* RPV water level is -162 inches and dropping

"* RPV pressure band is 800 to 900 psig, with the recorded value 900 psig

"* RPV pressure is 805 psig and slowly rising Efforts to restore a CRD pump are in progress with the pump NOT yet running WHICH ONE of the following describes the future trend in fuel cladding temperature at the top of the bundles as the event progresses based on the above conditions?

a. Increases until ADS SRVs are opened at the Minimum Zero Injection RPV Water Level
b. Increases until A, C, and N SRVs are opened at the Minimum Steam Cooling RPV Water Level
c. Decreases until the A, C, and N SRVs are opened at the Minimum Steam Cooling RPV Water Level
d. Decreases until ADS SRVs are opened at the Minimum Zero Injection RPV Water Level Senior Reactor Operator

uesluon Choice Basis or Justification

a. Correct per T-1 11. The candidate must assess the indications, conclude that steam cooling is already in progress, and determine the required actions (ADS) at the appropriate RPV level. The basis for the steam cooling blowdown is the point where clad temp reached 1800 degrees. Clad temp rises from the point of uncovery to blowdown.

b-c-d Incorrect. Wrong direction for clad temp or wrong limit of Minimum Steam Cooling RPV Water Level, which is only valid with injection.
