2004 NRC RO/SRO Written Examination Analysis

9 RO and SRO QID #496

5/9 missed (55.6%), 3 chose D, one each chose A and B

This question that evaluates electrical theory knowledge. This is covered in Generic Fundamentals training. The question is satisfactory as written and no programmatic training deficiencies were identified. This question will be reviewed with the candidates during post-examination activities.

59 RO and SRO QID #525

8/9 missed (88.9%), 5 chose A, 3 chose D

This question concerns an interlock on an infrequently operated system (Reactor Building Purge) and two of the distracters are very close to the correct response. The distracter A will achieve the desired result, no over-pressurization of the Reactor Building upon Purge initiation. This is one plausible reason why this incorrect choice was the most popular.

Distracter D is also very close to the correct answer. The question is technically correct as written. The interlock is adequately covered in existing training materials and procedural guidance. This question will be reviewed with the candidates during post-examination activities.

71 RO and SRO QID#532

5/9 missed (55.6%), 2 chose C, one each chose A and D

The distribution of incorrect answers does not reveal any question construction problems.

The question is satisfactory as written. Turbine bypass valve failure and EHC controls are adequately covered in existing training materials. This question will be reviewed with the candidates during post-examination activities.

73 RO and SRO QID#534

5/9 missed (55.6%), all chose A

This question required rather specific knowledge of SW crosstie valve power supplies. The question is technically correct as written. The reversed layout of the control panels does not lend itself easily to long term recall, i.e., odd numbered components are normally powered from the red train, but not in this case. Electrical Distribution is adequately covered in existing training materials. This question will be reviewed with the candidates during post-examination activities.

77 SRO only QID#491

2/4 missed (50%), one chose A and one chose D

This question tests knowledge of conditions under which HPI may be secured in accordance with Emergency Operating Procedures (EOPs). This knowledge is adequately covered in existing EOP training materials and included in simulator training for SROs. The small sample size and varied distribution of incorrect answers provides no evidence of question construction problems. The question is technically correct as written. This question will be reviewed with the candidates during post-examination activities.

2004 NRC SRO Written Examination Analysis (continued)

91 SRO only QID#487

2/4 missed (50%), one chose A and one chose D

This question tests knowledge of administrative responsibilities for post-maintenance testing.

Administrative responsibilities are adequately covered in the initial SRO training program.

The small sample size and varied distribution of incorrect answers provides no evidence of question construction problems. The question is technically correct as written. This question will be reviewed with the candidates during post-examination activities.
