TVA Westinghouse has indicated that the EICB I&C Matrix Item 390 Closing to OI 124 15 WINCISE Application Servers, as well as the BEACON are redundant.
However, the WINCISE Application Server communicates only with Beacon A. Westinghouse also explained that to switch from Beacon A to Beacon B, the operator must perform this manually. After reviewing Westinghouse documents, we couldnt find explanation that automatic switchover to the other server is not permitted.

TVA Lead TVA Clarify the logic to subtract failed EICB I&C Matrix Item 392 Closing to OI 118 and OI 123 17 detectors from the algorithm used to calculate core power. During the May 12 meeting with Westinghouse and TVA, Westinghouse explained that the WINCISE Application Server includes an algorithm to subtract failed detectors. However, during our review in Westinghouse office, we could not find description on how this algorithm is accomplished.
Furthermore, the document BEACON Data Processing Application Program Software Requirements Specification includes the following assumption:
BEACON will perform the subtraction between various length elements for the vanadium detector design. This is appropriate, as BEACON is more equipped to support the replacement value algorithm should an element fail.
BEACON has knowledge of the flux shape which is critical to this process.

Guide 1.75Since WBN2 is not committed to RG 1.75 or IEEE-384, no comparison is required However, WBN2 is committed to RG 1.75 Rev. 2, Physical Independence of Electric Systems. RG 1.75 Rev. 3 and IEEE Std. 384-1992 are used, in part, to address IEEE Std 603-1991 Clause 5.6.1. The current NRC staff position for RG 1.75 is documented in Rev. 3.
Based upon the review of this item, the staff finds the following open item:
1 TVA to updated FSAR (Amendment 103) Table 7.1-1 to include RG 1.75 Rev. 3 for WBN2 Common Q PAMS and the Sorrento Containment High Radiation monitor.
The Common Q PAMS was designed to meet the requirements of RG 1.75 Rev.

Form --- Bechtel Document NRC Review pending Page 2 -Maintenance Difference The proposed In-Core Instrument Thimble Assemblies (IITAs) which will replace Movable In-Core Detectable Systems (MIDs) have the following features:
(1) IITAs are not fully extracted and they are held in a movable frame assembly.
(2) IITAs exert lower vibration amplitude and therefore, aging degradation due to wear does not occur.
(3) Loss of reactor coolant system pressure boundary due to breach of IITA outer sheath does not occur.
Question:
The staff believes that the licensee should provide an inspection program to confirm that the aforementioned attributes associated with IITAs are valid and this inspection program can be a part of a routine maintenance program.
