Revised Pages to APS Letter 102-05351, Attachment 3 RPS Instrumentation - Operating B 3.3.1 BASES BACKGROUND Bistable Trip Units (Before CPC Upgrade) (continued)

Some measurement channels provide contact outputs to the PPS. In these cases, there is no bistable card. and opening the contact input directly de-energizes the associated bistable relays. These include the CPC generated DNBR - Low and LPD - High trips. The CPC auxiliary trip functions (e.g.. CPC VOPT algorithm) do not have any direct contact outputs to the PPS. The auxiliary trip functions act through the DNBR - Low and LPD - High trip contacts to de-energize the associated CPC initiation relays that provide a channel trip signal to the PPS parameters 3 and 4 bistable relays. Other CPC trip functions may also apply a penalty factor to cause a DNBR or LPD trip.

The trip setpoints used in the bistables are based on analytical limits derived from safety analyses (Ref. 5 and 8). The selection of these trip setpints is such that adequate protection is provided when all sensor and processing time delays are taken into account.

A detailed description of the methodology used to calculate the trip setpoints. including their explicit uncertainties. is provided in "Calculation of Trip Setpoint Values" (Ref. 7). The UFSAR Trip Setpoints are based on the calculated total loop uncertainty consistent with the methiodology as documented in the UFSAR (RG 1.105.-Re-vis'io'n

RPS Instrumentation - Operating B 3.3.1 BASES LCO The LCO requires all instrumentation performing an RPS Function to be OPERABLE. Failure of any required portion of the instrument channel renders the affected channelCs) inoperable and reduces the reliability of the affected Functions.

Actions allow maintenance (trip channel) bypass of individual channels. but the bypass activates interlocks that prevent operation with a second channel in the same Function bypassed. With one channel in each Function trip channel bypassed, this effectively places the plant in a two-out-of-three logic configuration in those Functions.

The general relationship among the PVNGS trip setpoint Terms is as follows: Ihe calculated limiting setpoint (L-5p) is determined within the plant sp2cjfic setpoint analysis-and is based on the Analytical Limit and the Total Loop Uncertainty. The UFSAR Trip Setpoint is equal to or more conservative than the LSb and is specified in the UFSAR (Ref. 8). Te Design Setpoint-(Dp) is the field installed setting and isequal to or more conservative than the UhSA TIrip Setpoint. ihis relationsi will ensure that sufficient margin to the satety and/or analytical limit is maintained.

Only the Allowable Values (AVs) are specified for each RPS trip Function in the LCO. ThieAV is considered an operability limit for the channel. Nominal trip setpoints are specified in the plant specific setpoint calculations.

The nominal setpoints are selected to ensure the setpoints measured by CHANNEL FUNCTIONAL TESTS do not exceed the Allowable Value if the bistable is performing as required.

Operation with a trip setpoint less conservative than the nominal trip setpoint. but within its Allowable Value. is acceptable, provided that operation and testing are consistent with the assumptions of the plant specific setpoint calculations. If the as-found instrument setting is found to be non-conservative with respect to the AV. or the as-left instrument setting cannot be returned to a setting within As-Left lolerance (ALI). or the instrument is not functioning as reqiuired: then the instrument cha~n~neT shall be declared inoperable.

RPS Instrumentation - Operating B 3.3.1 BASES LCO 5. Containment Pressure - High (continued)

The LCO requires four channels of Containment Pressure - High to be OPERABLE in MODES I and 2.

The Allowable Value is set high enough to allow for small pressure increases in containment expected during normal operation (i.e.. plant heatup) and is not indicative of an abnormal condition. It is set low enough to initiate a reactor trip when an abnormal condition is indicated.

6, 7. Steam Generator Pressure - Low This LCO requires four channels of Steam Generator #1 Pressure - Low and Steam Generator #2 Pressure - Low to be OPERABLE in MODES 1 and 2.

This Allowablc VaueUFSAR Trip Setpoint is sufficiently below tie full load operating value for steam pressure so as not to interfere with normal plant operation, but still high enough to provide the required protection in the event of excessive steam demand. Since excessive steam demand causes the RCS to cool down. resulting in positive reactivity addition to the core. If the moderator temperature coefficient is negative a reactor trip is required to offset that effect.

The trip setpoint may be manually decreased as steam generator pressure is reduced during controlled plant cooldown, provided the margin between steam generator pressure and the setpoint is maintained

• 200 psia.

This allows for controlled depressurization of the secondary system while still maintaining an active reactor trip setpoint and MSIS setpoint. until the time is reached when the setpoints are no longer needed to protect the plant. The setpoint increases automatically as steam generator pressure increases until the specified trip setpoint is reached.

Ihe purpose of the assessment is to ensure confidence in the instrument performance prior to returning the instrument to service. Initial evaluation will be performed by the technician performing the surveillance who will evaluate the instrument's ability to maintain a stable trip setpoint within the As-Left Tolerance (ALI). The technician s evaluation will be reviewed by on shift personnel both during the approval ot the surveillance data and as a result o0 entry ot the deviation in the site's corrective action program.

Part 2 requires that the as-left setting for the instrument be returned to within the ALI of the specified trip setpoint. The specified field installed trip setpoint is termed as the Design etmt (Sp) and is equal to or more conservative than the UlSAR rip Setpoint. The general relationship among the VNGS trip setpoint terms is as follows: The calculated limiting setpoint (LSP) is determined within the plant specific setpoint analysis and is based on the Analytical Limit and lotal Loop Uncertainty. Ihe UFSAR Trip Setpoint is equal to or more conservative than the LSp and is specified in the UFSAR. The DSp is the field installed setting and is equal to or more conservative than the UFSAR Trip Setpoint.

This LCO requires all four channels of Steam Generator #1 Pressure-Low, and Steam Generator #2 Pressure-Low, to be OPERABLE in MODE 3. when the RTCBs are closed and the CEA Drive System is capable of CEA withdrawal. These RPS functions are not required in MODES 4 and 5 because the Steam Generator temperature is low, therefore the energy release and resulting cooldown following a large MSLB in MODES 4 and 5 is not significant.

The DSp is the field installed setting and is equal to or more conservative than the UFSAR Trip Setpoint. Ihis relationship ensures that sufficient margin to the safety and/or analytical limit ismaintained. Itthe as-found instrument setting is found to be non-conservative with respect to the AV specified in the technical specifications, or the as-left instrument setting cannot be returned to a setting within the ALT. or the instrument is not functioning as required: then the instrument channel shall be declared inoperable.

The Allowable Values are high enough to provide an operating envelope that prevents unnecessary Logarithmic Power Level - High reactor trips during normal plant operations.

The Allowable Values are low enough for the system to maintain a safety margin for unacceptable fuel cladding damage should a CEA withdrawal or MSLB event occur.

The Logarithmic Power Level - High trip may be bypassed when logarithmic power is above 1E-4% NRTP to allow the reactor to be brought to power during a reactor startup. This bypass is automatically removed when logarithmic power decreases below 1E-4% NRTP. Above 1E-4% NRTP. the Variable Over Power - High and Pressurizer Pressure - High trips provide protection for reactivity transients.

The automatic bypass removal channel is INOPERABLE when the associated Log power channel has failed. The bypass function is manually controlled via station operating procedures and the bypass removal circuitry itself is fully capable of responding to a change in the associated input bistable.

Footnotes (a) and (b) in Table 3.3.1-1 and (d) in Table 3.3.2-1 clearly require an "automatic" removal of trip bypasses. A failed Log channel may prevent, depending on the failure mode. the associated input bistable from changing state as power transitions through the automatic bypass removal setpoint. Specifically, when the indicated Log power channel is failed high (above 1E-4%), the automatic Hi-Log power trip bypass removal feature in that channel cannot function. Similarly, when the indicated Log power channel is failed low (below 1E-4%). the automatic DNBR-LPD trip bypass removal feature in that channel cannot function. Although one bypass removal feature is applicable above 1E-4% NRTP and the other is applicable below 1E-4% NRTP. both are affected by a failed Log power channel and should therefore be considered INOPERABLE.
