Amendment Nos. 261 and 261
TS 2.3-4 B. Protective instrumentation settings for reactor trip interlocks shall be as follows:
- 1. The reactor trip on low pressurizer pressure, high pressurizer level, turbine trip, and low reactor coolant flow for two or more loops shall be unblocked prior to or when power increases to 11 % of rated power.
- 2. The single loop loss of flow reactor trip shall be unblocked prior to or when the power range nuclear flux increases to 37% of rated power.
- 3. The power range"high flux, low setpoint trip and the intermediate range high flux, high setpoint trip shall be unblocked prior to or when power decreases to 7% of rated power.
- 4. The source range high flux, high setpoint trip shall be unblocked prior to or when the intermediate range nuclear flux decreases to 5 x O"11 amperes.
Basis The power range reactor trip low setpoint provides protection in the power range for a power excursion beginning from low power. This trip value was used in the safety analysis.() The Source Range High Flux Trip provides reactor core protection during shutdown (COLD SHUTDOWN, INTERMEDIATE SHUTDOWN, and HOT SHUTDOWN) when the reactor trip breakers are closed and reactor power is below the permissive P-6. The Source and Intermediate Range trips in addition to the Power Range trips provide core protection during reactor startup when the reactor is critical. The Source Range channels will initiate a reactor trip at about 1.51 x 105 counts per second unless manually blocked when P-6 becomes active. The Intermediate Range channels will initiate a reactor trip at a current level proportional to < 40% of RATED POWER unless manually blocked when P-10 becomes active. In the accident analyses, bounding transient analysis results are based on reactivity excursions from an initially critical condition, where the Source Range trip is assumed to be blocked. Accidents initiated form a subcritical condition would produce less severe results, since the Source Range trip would provide core protection at a lower power level. No credit is taken for operation of the Intermediate Range High Flux trip. However, its functional capability is required by this specification to enhance the overall reliability of the Reactor Protection System.
The high and low pressurizer pressure reactor trips limit the pressure range in which reactor operation is permitted. The high pressurizer pressure reactor trip is also a backup to the pressurizer code safety valves for overpressure protection, and is therefore set lower than the set pressure for these valves (2485 psig). The low pressurizer pressure reactor trip also trips the reactor in the unlikely event of a loss-of-coolant accident.(3 )

With normal axial power distribution, the reactor trip limit, with allowance for errors,(2) is always below the core safety limit as shown on TS Figure 2.1-1. If axial peaks are greater than design, as indicated by the difference between top and bottom power range nuclear detectors, the reactor limit is automatically reduced.t 4 )(s)
The overpower and overtemperature protection system setpoints have been revised to include effects of fuel densification on core safety limits and to apply to 100% of design flow. The revised setpoints in the Technical Specifications will ensure that the combination of power, temperature, and pressure will not exceed the revised core safety limits as shown in Figures 2.1-1 through 2.1-3. The reactor is prevented from reaching the overpower limit condition by action of the nuclear overpower and overpower AT trips. The overpower limit criteria is that core power be prevented from reaching a value at which fuel pellet centerline melting would occur. The overpower protection system set points include the effects of fuel densification.
In order to operate with a reactor coolant loop out of service (two-loop operation) and with the stop valves of the inactive loop either open or closed, the overtemperature AT trip setpoint calculation has to be modified by the adjustment of the variable K1. This adjustment, based on limits of two-loop operation, provides sufficient margin to DNB for the aforementioned transients during two loop operation. The required adjustment and subsequent mandatory calibrations are made in the protective system racks by qualified technicians* in the same manner as adjustments before initial startup and normal calibrations for three-loop operation.
The-overpower-AT reactor-trip-prevents-power density-anywhere-in-the-core-from-exceeding-H-8 %
of design power density as discussed Section 7 and specified in Section 14.2.2 of the FSAR and includes corrections for axial power distribution, change in density and heat capacity of water with temperature, and dynamic compensation for piping delays from the core to the loop temperature detectors. The specified setpoints meet this requirement and include allowance for instrument errors.(2)
Refer to Technical Report EE-01 16 for justification of the dynamic limits (time constants) for the Overtemperature AT and Overpower AT Reactor Trip functions.
As used here, a qualified technician means a technician who meets the requirements of ANS-3.
He shall have a minimum of two years of working experience in his speciality and at least one year of related technical training.

TS 2.3-6 The In-flow rperr*.- trip pr-tects thecore ag a inrr-the event of a sudden-loss-of-power to -
one or more reactor coolant pumps. The undervoltage-readto-r-trip pfrtectsga*in-st a de*rease in Reactor Coolant System flow caused by a loss of voltage to the reactor coolant pump busses. The underfrequency reactor trip (opens RCP supply breakers and) protects against a decrease in Reactor Coolant System flow caused by a frequency decay on the reactor coolant pump busses.
The undervoltage and underfrequency reactor trips are expected to occur prior to the low flow trip setpoint being reached for low flow events caused by undervoltage or underfrequency, respectively. The accident analysis conservatively ignores the undervoltage and underfrequency trips and assumes reactor protection is provided by the low flow trip. The undervoltage and underfrequency reactor trips are retained as backup protection.
The high pressurizer water level reactor trip protects the pressurizer safety valves against water relief. Approximately 1125 ft3 of water corresponds to 89.12% of span. The specified setpoint allows margin for instrument error(7) and transient level overshoot beyond this trip setting so that the trip function prevents the water level from reaching the safety valves.
The low-low steam generator water level reactor trip protects against loss of feedwater flow accidents. The specified setpoint assures that there will be sufficient water inventory in the steam generators at the time of trip to allow for starting delays for the Auxiliary Feedwater System.(7 )
The specified reactor trips are blocked at low power where they are not required for protection and would otherwise interfere with normal unit operations. The prescribed setpoint above which these trips are unblocked assures their availability in the power range where needed.
Above 11% power, an automatic reactor trip will occur if two or more reactor coolant pumps are lost. Above 37%, an automatic reactor trip will occur if any pump is lost or de-energized. This latter-trip will-prevent-the, minimum-value-of the -DNBR-from-going below-the applicable design.
as a result of the decrease of Reactor Coolant System flow associated with the loss of a single reactor coolant pump.
Although not necessary for, core protection, other reactor trips provide additional protection. The steam/feedwater flow mismatch which is coincident with a low steam generator water level is designed for and provides protection from a sudden loss of the reactor's heat sink. Upon the actuation of the safety injection circuitry, the reactor is tripped to decrease the severity of the accident condition. Upon turbine trip, at greater than 11 % power, the reactor is tripped to reduce the severity of the ensuing transient.

TS 2.3-7 Permissive P-7 is made up of input signals from Turbine First Stage Pressure and NIS Power Range. Signals to the P-7 and P-10 permissives are supplied from the same bistables in the NIS Power Range drawers. P-7 and P-10 will both enable and block functions from the "trip" and "reset" points of these bistables. The calibration procedures for the NIS Power Range bistables set the nominal trip setpoints associated with the two permissives such that they will trip whenever the measured reactor power level reaches 10% power (increasing). When two out of four of the NIS Power Range channels trip or if one of the two Turbine First Stage Pressure channels trip the following occurs:
" Permissive P-7 allows reactor trip on the following: low flow, reactor coolant pump breakers open in more than one loop, undervoltage (RCP busses), underfrequency (RCP busses),
turbine trip, pressurizer low pressure, and pressurizer high pressure.
" Permissive P-10 allows manual block of intermediate range reactor trip, allows manual block of power range (low setpoint) reactor trip, allows manual block of intermediate range rod stop (P-l), and automatically blocks source range reactor trip (P-6) and provides an input to P-7.
The "trip" and "reset" of a bistable cannot be the same point. It is physically not possible. There must be a deadband between the "trip" and "reset" points. The calibration procedures for the NIS Power Range bistables set the nominal reset points for the two permissives such that they reset whenever the measured reactor power level reaches 8% power (decreasing). The P-7 input from Turbine First Stage Pressure is set to reset at 8.8% Turbine Load (decreasing). When three out of four of the NIS Power Range channels reset or if two out of the two Turbine First Stage Pressure channels reset the following occurs:
- Permissive P-7 blocks reactor trip on the following: low flow, reactor coolant pump breakers open in more than one loop, undervoltage, underfrequency, turbine trip, pressurizer low pressure, and pressurizer high pressure.
When three out of four of the NIS Power Range channels reset the following occurs:
- Permissive P-10 defeats automatically the manual block of intermediate range reactor trip, defeats automatically the manual block of power range (low setpoint) reactor trip, and defeats automatically the manual block of intermediate range rod stop (P-1).
Amendment Nos. 261 and 261
TS 2.3-8 There are no specific Safety Analysis Limits associated with Permissives P-7 and P-10. However, they are "Assumed Available" by Nuclear Analysis and Fuel. Since P-7 and P-10 are permissives for functions with Safety Analysis Limits, for conservatism, they will be treated as if they had a Limiting Safety System Setting. In order to account for instrumentation errors, 1% of reactor power is added to the P-7 and P-10 safety functions. This results in a Limiting Safety System Setting for the P-7 enable interlock of I 1% of reactor power. The Limiting Safety System Setting for the P-I10 (defeat block) interlock is 7% of reactor power.
The methodology for determining the Limiting Safety System Settings (LSSS) found in TS 2.3 was developed in Technical Report EE-01 16. The Limiting Safety System Setting must be chosen so that automatic protective action will correct an abnormal situation before the safety limit is exceeded. At Surry Power Station the Allowable Value (AV) serves as the Limiting Safety System Setting such that a channel is OPERABLE if the trip setpoint is found not to exceed the Allowable Value during the Channel Functional Test (which is also referred to as the Channel Operational Test or COT). As such, the Allowable Value differs from the Trip Setpoint by an amount primarily equal to the expected instrument loop uncertainties, such as drift, during the surveillance interval. In this manner, the actual setting of the device will still meet the LSSS definition and ensure that the Safety Limit is not exceeded at any given point of time as long as the device has not drifted beyond that expected during the surveillance interval. If the actual setting of the device is found to have exceeded the Allowable Value the device would be considered inoperable from a Technical Specification perspective. This requires corrective action including those actions required by 10 CFR 50.36 when automatic protective devices do not function as required.
Technical Report EE-01 16 verifies that Surry's methodology for determining Allowable Values is in agreement with the intent of ISA Standard S67.04, Methods I and 2. In addition, it is Dominion's position that the Analytical Limit will be protected if:
I.
the distance between the Trip Setpoint and the Analytical Limit is equal to or greater than the Total Loop Uncertainty for that channel and
- 2.
the distance between the Allowable Value and the Analytical Limit is equal to or greater than the non-COT error components of the Total Loop Uncertainty and
- 3.
the distance between the Trip Setpoint and the Allowable Value is equal to the COT error components of the Total Loop Uncertainty without any excessive margin included.
Amendment Nos. 261 and 261
TS 2.3-9 1
Both the Trip Setpoint and the Allowable Value must be properly established in order to adequately protect the Analytical Limit.

Amendment Nos. 261 and 261
TS 3.7-4 Instrumentation has been provided to sense accident conditions and to initiate operation of the Engineered Safety Features.
Safety Injection System Actuation Protection against a loss-of-coolant or steam line break accident is provided by automatic actuation of the Safety Injection System (SIS) which provides emergency cooling and" reduction of reactivity.
The loss-of-coolant accident is characterized by depressurization of the Reactor Coolant System and rapid loss of reactor coolant to the containment. The engineered safeguards instrumentation has been designed to sense these effects of the loss-of-coolant accident by detecting low pressurizer pressure to generate signals actuating the SIS active phase. The SIS active phase is also actuated by a high containment pressure signal brought about by loss of high enthalpy coolant to the containment. This actuation signal acts as a backup to the low pressurizer pressure actuation of the SIS and also adds diversity to protect against loss of coolant.
Signals are also provided to actuate the SIS upon sensing the effects of a steam line break accident. Therefore, SIS actuation following a steam line break is designed to occur upon sensing high differential steam pressure between the steam header and steam generator line or upon sensing high steam line flow in coincidence with low reactor coolant average temperature or low steam line pressure.
The increase in the extraction of RCS heat following a steam line break results in reactor coolant temperature and pressure reduction. For this reason, protection against a steam line break accident is also provided by low pressurizer pressure actuating safety injection.
Protection is also provided for a steam line break in the containment by actuation of SIS upon sensing high containment pressure.

TS 3.7-6 reduces thnscqucnccs o a sa in uebrea, iide-u: L, con.ain,,int by stopping-th-e entry of feedwater.
Auxiliary Feedwater System Actuation The automatic initiation of auxiliary feedwater flow to the steam generators by instruments identified in Table 3.7-2 ensures that the Reactor Coolant System decay heat can be removed following loss of main feedwater flow. This is consistent with the requirements of the "TMI-2 Lessons Learned Task. Force Status Report," NUREG-0578, item 2.1.7.b.
Setting Limits
- 1. The high containment pressure limit is set at about 8% of design containment pressure.
Initiation of safety injection protects against loss of coolant(2) or steam line break(3) accidents as discussed in the safety analysis.
- 2. The high-high containment pressure limit is set at about 21 % of design containment pressure. Initiation of containment spray and steam line isolation protects against large loss-of-coolant(2). or steam line break accidents( 3 ) as discussed in the safety analysis.
- 3. The pressurizer low pressure setpoint for safety injection actuation is set substantially below system operating pressure limits. However, it is sufficiently high to protect against a loss-of-coolant accident as shown in the safety analysis.(2) The setting limit (in units of psig) is based on nominal atmospheric pressure.
- 4. The steam line high differential pressure limit is set well below the differential pressure expected in the event of a large steam line break accident as shown in the W a y
- 5. The high steam line flow differential pressure setpoint is constant at 40% full flow between no load and 20% load and increasing linearly to 110% of full flow at full load in order to protect against large steam line break accidents. The coincident low Tag setting limit for SIS and steam line isolation initiation is set below its HOT SHUTDOWN value. The coincident steam line pressure setting limit is set below the full load operating pressure. The safety analysis shows that these settings prov'ide protection in the event of a large steam line break, Amendment Nos. 261 and 261

In response to NUREG-0737 and Regulatory Guide (RG) 1.97, Revision 3, a programmatic approach was developed in defining the RG 1.97-required equipment for Surry. The Surry RG 1.97 program review examined existing instrumentation with respect to the RG 1.97 design-and qualification requirements. The operability of RG 1.97 instrumentation ensures that sufficient information is available on selected unit parameters to monitor and assess unit status and response during and following an accident. The availability of accident monitoring instrumentation is important so that the consequences of corrective actions can be observed and the need for and magnitude of further actions can be determined.
RG 1.97 applied a graded approach to post-accident indication by using a matrix.of variable types versus variable categories. RG 1.97 delineates design and qualification criteria for the instrumentation used to measure five variable types (Types A, B, C, D, and E). These criteria are divided into three separate categories (Categories 1, 2, and 3),
providing a graded approach that depended on the importance to safety of the measurement of a specific variable. Category I variables, listed in Table 3.7-6, are defined as follows:
Category 1 - are the key variables deemed risk significant because they are needed to:
0 Determine whether other systems important to safety are performing their intended functions,
- Provide information to the operators that will enable them to determine the likelihood of a gross breach of the barriers to radioactivity release, and
- Provide-information regarding-the release._ of radioactive-materials. to allow early indication of the need to initiate action necessary to protect the public and to estimate the magnitude of any impending threat.
The RG 1.97 criteria on redundancy requirements apply to Category 1 variables only and address single-failure criteria and supporting features, including power sources.
Failures of the instrumentation, its supporting features, and/or its power source resulting in less than the required number of channels necessitate entry into the required actions.

Check Calibration Tests Consists of verifying for an indicated intake canal level greater than 23'-5.85" that all four low level sensor channel alarms are not in an alarm state.
Consists of uncovering the level'sensor and measuring the time response and voltage signals for the immersed and dry conditions. It also verifies the proper action of instrument channel from sensor to electronics to channel output.relays and.
annunciator. Only the two available sensors on the shutdown unit would be tested.
- 1) The logic test verifies the thr ee out of four logic development for each train by using the channel test switches for that train.
- 2) Channel electronics test verifies that electronics module responds properly to a superimposed differential millivolt signal I
which is equivalent to the sen~sor detecting a "dry" condition..
