CONFIDENTIAL NRC EXAM MATERIAL Do Not Discuss with anyone who has not signed Exam Security Agreement QUESTION NUMBER: 001 A plant transient has led to a high pressure reactor trip. Following the trip, a pressurizer safety valve opened and did not reclose. The RCS pressure then lowered and PPLS actuation started all of the ECCS pumps. The operators tripped all RCPs.

It is 20 minutes after the trip and current plant conditions are:

  • RCS Pressure is steady at 900 psia
  • Hot leg and CET temperatures indicate 530ºF
  • Pressurizer level is 85% and rising
  • All HPSI, LPSI and charging pumps are running.

What action should be taken in response to the rising pressurizer level?

A. Continue to provide full injection flow. Allow all ECCS pumps to continue injecting.

B. Trip one HPSI pump and all LPSI pumps. Continue to provide full charging flow.

C. Trip all HPSI pumps. Trip charging pumps as required to control pressurizer level.

D. Trip HPSI pumps as needed to control pressurizer level. Continue to provide full charging flow.
