A Large Break LOCA has occurred. Actions of ES-1.3, Transfer To Cold Leg Recirculation, have been completed.

During alignment, EJ-HV-8804A, RHR to Charging/SI Pumps Isolation Valve, failed to open and could NOT be manually opened.

Which ONE of the following describes the present ECCS flow path?

A. BOTH RHR Pumps are aligned to supply the cold leg injection headers. RHR Pump B is supplying suction to the SI Pumps and Centrifugal Charging Pumps.

B. RHR Pump A is STOPPED. RHR Pump B is supplying suction to the SI Pumps and Centrifugal Charging Pumps.

C. RHR Pump B is supplying suction to SI Pump B and Centrifugal Charging Pump B. SI Pump A and Centrifugal Charging Pump A are STOPPED.

The following plant conditions exist:

  • 50% Reactor Power
  • CCW Pump 'D' is Running
  • CCW Pump 'B' is in Standby A Lockout occurs on the Startup Transformer Which ONE of the following describes the design response of the CCW System?

CCW Pump 'D' is shed and CCW Pump 'B' remains in Standby D. CCW Pump 'D' continues to run and CCW Pump 'B' remains in Standby Proposed Answer: A Explanation:

NB02 is de-energized by the loss of the Startup Transformer. The undervoltage condition generates a load-shed signal that opens both CCW pump circuit breakers. Emergency DG NE02 starts and re-energizes NB02, starting the Shutdown Sequencer. CCW Pump B is started at the 5-second step in the load sequence. CCW Pump D will only start on a failure of CCW Pump B.

The following conditions exist during a reactor startup:

  • Source Range channel N31 indicates 4.0 E04 CPS
  • Source Range channel N32 indicates 4.2 E04 CPS
  • Intermediate Range channel N35 indicates 1.5 E-10 Amps
  • Intermediate Range channel N36 indicates 1.0 E-11 Amps Use Attachment 3 of OTG-ZZ-00002, Reactor Startup (attached), to determine which ONE of the following conditions exist.

A. Intermediate Range channel N36 is under-compensated B. Intermediate Range channel N36 is over-compensated C. Intermediate Range channel N35 is under-compensated D. Intermediate Range channel N35 is over-compensated Proposed Answer: B Explanation:

4.0 E4 CPS on the Source Range NIS channels corresponds to approximately 1.0 E-10 Amps on the Intermediate Range NIS channels. This would lead to the conclusion that Intermediate Range channel N35 is indicating correctly. Over-compensation would make Intermediate Range channel N36 read erroneously low.
