1 ID: 98316 Points: 1.00 Step 5 in EMG E-0, REACTOR TRIP OR SAFETY INJECTION, states 'Check if SI is required'.

What is the purpose of this step?

A. Ensure BIT valves are closed so flow can be directed to the normal flow path if indications warrant.

B. To determine which signal caused the SI for future use in the procedure.

C. To ensure BOTH trains of SI have actuated and if NOT to actuate BOTH trains.

D. Maximize the time available to prevent a possible PZR over pressurization caused by going water solid.

Answer: D Answer Explanation:

Correct - per BD E-0 step 5 checks for if this SI is inadvertent and if so it stops all but one charging pump then closes the ECCS flow path valves to the RCS from the CCPs. This action maximizes the time the crew will have to restore normal letdown to prevent the PZR from going water solid and lifting a PORV.

Incorrect - ensure bit valves are closed. The RNO for this step will close the BIT valves IF the SI is inadvertent. Plausible if the student remembers that this step RNO will close the valves but doesn't understand why.

Incorrect - determine which signal caused the SI. The step asks for each signal that could have caused the SI. Plausible if the student uses the check step as a need to know what caused the SI as to if the SI is needed.

Incorrect - ensure both trains of SI have actuated. Step 4 of the procedure checks for this. Plausible as this step deals with the SI but only to determine if its actuated not if its required.

  • Plant is operating at 100%
  • EMG E-1, LOSS OF REACTOR OR SECONDARY COOLANT, is in progress at step 2
  • PZR is 79% and up slow
  • RCS pressure is 1780 psig and down slow Based on these conditions, the failure is a leak through the...

A. RCS hot leg.

B. PZR safety valve(s).

C. PZR liquid space sample valve.

D. charging header connection to the RCS loop.

Answer: B Answer Explanation:

Correct - A steam space leak will lower pressure in the RCS but PZR level will raise.

Incorrect - PZR liquid space. This leak location will cause RCS pressure and PZR level to lower. Plausible if the student doesn't understand the leak location.

Incorrect - charging header connection. This leak location will cause RCS pressure and PZR level to lower. Plausible if the student doesn't understand the leak location.

Incorrect - RCS hot leg. This leak location will cause RCS pressure and PZR level to lower. Plausible if the student doesn't understand the leak location.

Meets the K/A because it asks the student to evaluate the indications given and determine the leak is a vapor space leak via the safety valve which would be an interrelation between the vapor space leak phenomena and the valve.

RO level because it asks only for what could cause the indications given not what or where to go.

  • BB PS-455F, PZR Master Pressure Controller, is selected to P457/P456
  • Then BB PI-457 suddenly fails to 2500 psig.

Which, if any, PORV Block valve(s) MUST to be closed to stop the pressure from lowering?

A. BB HV-8000A ONLY B. BB HV-8000B ONLY C. Neither PORV Block valve D. Both PORV Block valves Answer: A Answer Explanation:

Validated on desktop simulator BB HIS-455A PORV is controlled by the output of PZR master pressure controller BB PK-455. Since the selected channel failed hi the associated PORV will open but the other PORV will not. BB HV-456A is controlled by 2/4 pressure channels above setpoint only.

Correct - selected controlling pressure channel fails hi 455A will open and 456A will not. If the block valve for the open PORV were closed then RCS pressure will stabilize out until the problems can be corrected.

Incorrect - Both PORV block valve. Plausible if the student thinks this failure will affect both PORVs in the same way that the controller will operate both valves.

Incorrect - BB HV-8000B. Plausible if the student confuses which PORV the controlling pressure channel controls. If they think of this in reverse then this would be the correct response.

Incorrect - Neither PORV block valve. Plausible because if the actual pressure lowered to less than 2185 psig then the associated PORV block valve will close and since the PORV is a pilot operated valve it will lose its opening force and reclose. The non-affected PORV would be closed before the block valves could close.

Meets the K/A because the opening of the PZR PORV is a SBLOCA and it asks the student to understand how the PORVs function.

RO knowledge due to asking how the controller works and responds to inputs.

A. 'A' RCP stator winding temperature is too high, trip the reactor, trip 'A' RCP B. 'B' RCP motor bearing temperature is too high, trip the reactor, trip 'B' RCP C. 'C' RCP #1 seal and bearing water temperature is too high, perform a controlled shutdown to remove 'C' RCP from service D. 'D' RCP thrust bearing temperature is too high, perform a controlled shutdown to remove 'D' RCP from service Answer: B Answer Explanation:

Correct - The value for an immediate RCP shutdown has been exceeded (bearing temp of 195F) per foldout page of OFN BB-005, RCP MALFUNCTIONS, the RCP must be shutdown immediately.

Incorrect - A RCP and trip. The value given is high but for this to cause an immediate shutdown this would have to exceed 299F. Plausible if the student confuses which values go with which component (common misconception).

Incorrect - C RCP and controlled shutdown. The value give for seal and bearing temperature is high but it would have to exceed 230F to be and immediate shutdown and this also only calls for a controlled shutdown. Plausible if the student confuses the values for immediate shutdown and controlled shutdown.

Incorrect - D RCP and controlled shutdown. The thrust bearing temperature is high but would need to be over 195F for this to cause any action for the crew. Plausible if the student confuses the values for immediate and controlled shutdown (common misconception)

Rev 0 5 ID: 98320 Points: 1.00 Given the following:

  • The plant is being cooled down for a refueling outage
  • RCS pressure is 345 psig stable
  • RCS temperature is 333°F stable
  • PZR level 25% stable
  • 'A' RHR pump in cooldown mode of operation
  • Then: 'A' RHR pump TRIPS With NO operator action, RCS pressure/temperature will _______________, RHR hot leg suction isolation valve will ____________, and the RHR suction relief will ____________.

A. lower, close, remain closed B. lower, remain open, remain closed C. rise, close, lift if pressure rises to 475 psig D. rise, remain open, lift if pressure rises to 475 psig Answer: D Answer Explanation:

Wolf Creek has no auto isolation of RHR piping if pressure rises.

Correct - If RHR is lost during a plant cooldown then RCS pressure and temperature will rise. The RHR suction valves have an interlock to not open unless pressure is lower than 360 psig. If pressure rises after the valve is open there is no effect due to no interlock to close. The suction relief valve lifts at 450 psig so the valve should be open at the given pressure.

Incorrect - Lower, open, and relief closed. The suction valve will be open. The suction relief being closed is plausible if the student confuses the lift setpoint with the RHR discharge relief.

Incorrect - rise, closed and relief open. Plausible if the student recalls the interlock for opening the RHR suction valve and misunderstands that it will not reclose if pressure rises. The relief will be open at this pressure.

Incorrect - lower, closed and relief closed. Plausible if the student recalls the interlock for opening the RHR suction valve and misunderstands that it will not reclose if pressure rises. The suction relief being closed is plausible if the student confuses the lift setpoint with the RHR discharge relief.

Meets the K/A because the question poses a loss of RHR and asks if the system will isolate due to pressure rise. Since there is no auto response for the RHR isolation the only response is that of RCS pressure and its effect on the reliefs.

  • Reactor power is 100%
  • RO notes 053D, CCW SRG TK B LEV HILO, is lit
  • BOP notes 'B' CCW surge tank level is 18% and down slow
  • 'B' CCW loop is supplying all cooling Per procedure the operators will...

A. place the 'B' train CCW pumps in P-T-L, trip the reactor, trip RCP's.

B. place the 'B' train CCW pumps in P-T-L, place ALL safety related pumps in P-T-L.

C. manually align BL water to the 'B' CCW surge tank prior to level lowering to less than 15% while continuing to locate the leak.

D. manually align ESW to the 'B' CCW surge tank prior to level lowering to less than 15% while continuing to locate the leak.

Answer: D Answer Explanation:

OFN EG-004, ALR 53D 053D comes in at CCW surge tank level of 19%

The OFN will have the operators check if auto normal makeup is aligned and then if level is still lowering to manually lineup ESW and continue to look for the leak. The 15% is based on foldout page that states if surge tank level drops to less than 15% then to trip the reactor and continue with the procedure.

Correct - manually align ESW before 15% and continue to look for leak Incorrect - place B train CCW pumps in PTL and trip reactor, plausible since foldout page will direct this AFTER surge tank level lowers to less than 15%.

Plausible if the student doesn't remember when the foldout page directs this action.

Incorrect - place B train CCW pumps PTL, place all safety related pumps in P-T-L plausible since foldout page will direct this if safety loop is aligned to train being affected if level lowers to less than 15%. Plausible if the student doesn't remember when the foldout page directs this action.

Incorrect - manually align BL water plausible if student confuses normal auto makeup and ESW manual makeup.

Rev 0

Meets the K/A because it asks the operator to operate the CCW and related system for a loss of CCW which will happen if surge tank level continues to lower. It contains surge tank level, level control. At Wolf Creek the low level alarm for the surge tank doesn't come in until 19% so auto makeup should have refilled the surge tank without the alarm from coming in. The radiation alarm will not come in on a leak out of the system only a radioactive leak into the system.

For this question the loss of surge tank level is the cause of the loss of CCW since a radiation alarm would indicate a leak into the system and not be a loss of CCW only that a leak is into the system.

RO knowledge since it asks for the operator to understand the purpose and overall mitigative strategy of the procedure.

  • PZR Master Pressure Controller output drifts low (indicator needle down scale)

Five minutes after the failure RCS subcooling will be ______ AND PZR subcooling will be A. higher, higher B. same, higher C. same, same D. higher, same Answer: D Answer Explanation:

Correct - output lowering will cause heaters to turn on to raise pressure and sprays would not respond to control pressure since the whole system is contorted by the output of the master pressure controller. A PORV will open after pressure gets to setpoint to stop the pressure rise. Since pressure is now higher and temperature is the same RCS subcooling is higher and the PZR pressure and temperature is higher so subcooling would be same.

Incorrect - higher, higher. Plausible if the student confuses pressure and temperature in the PZR since that system will stay at saturated.

Incorrect - same, same. Plausible if the student confuses the fact that the PZR will not change subcooling and thinks the RCS will follow what the PZR will do.

Incorrect - same, higher. Plausible if the student reverses the change in pressure and temperature between the RCS and PZR.

Meets the K/A because ask for understanding of subcooling with respect to the PZR.

9 ID: 98324 Points: 1.00 During the performance of EMG C-21, UNCONTROLLED DEPRESSURIZATION OF ALL STEAM GENERATORS, the following conditions exist:

  • RCS cooldown rate is determined to be 125°F/hr
  • All S/G NR levels are off-scale low
  • RCS hot leg temperatures are lowering
  • Containment pressure is normal
1. Which of the following describes how the crew is directed to control AFW flow?
2. What is the basis for this action?

A. 1. Flow is reduced and maintained at 30,000 lbm/hr to any S/G with less than 6% NR level

2. Help stabilize hot leg temperatures to establish conditions for SI termination B. 1. Flow is reduced and maintained at 30,000 lbm/hr to any S/G with less than 6% NR level
2. Maintain RCS cooldown rate C. 1. Flow is maintained greater than 270,000 lbm/hr until at least ONE S/G NR level is above 6%
2. Help stabilize hot leg temperatures to establish conditions for SI termination D. 1. Flow is maintained greater than 270,000 lbm/hr until at least ONE S/G NR level is above 6%
2. Maintain RCS cooldown rate Answer: A Answer Explanation:

Correct - Flow is reduced per step 5 but the caution above the step discusses minimum flow to any SG with NR level less than 6%. The basis discusses that after feed flow is lowered hot leg temperature will rise and step 5 is a continuous action step so flow and steam dumps will control hot leg temperature to establish conditions for SI termination.

Incorrect - flow reduced to 30,000 and maintain RCS cooldown rate. First part is correct. If the student knows cooldown needs to be slowed down then lower AFW flow would help that. Plausible if the student doesn't understand that stabilizing RCS temperature and pressure will allow for SI termination.

Incorrect - flow maintained at 270,000 and maintain RCS cooldown rate. Flow at 270,000 is the number used for all accidents until at least one SG has 6% NR level. This is not made for this case since the feed flow is helping to cause the cooldown. If the student believes this cooldown rate is appropriate. Plausible if the student doesn't understand that stabilizing RCS temperature and pressure will allow for SI termination.

Rev 0

Incorrect - flow maintained at 270,000 and establish conditions for SI termination.

Flow at 270,000 is the number used for all accidents until at least one SG has 6% NR level. This is not made for this case since the feed flow is helping to cause the cooldown. SI termination part is correct. Plausible if the student forgets that for this specific accident AFW flow is not desirable.

Meets the K/A because it asks for interrelations between the uncontrolled depressurization of all SGs and AFW flow (safety system instrumentation). This interrelation is what to do with AFW flow if this happened.

RO knowledge because it asks for mitigative strategy of the procedure.

LER 15003 Wolf Creek manual reactor trip due to high steam generator level at low power Correct - The P-14 causes a reactor trip and a trip of both MFW pumps which is a start signal for the MDAFW pumps only since SG level never lowered to the low setpoint for the TD pump. The SMART valves will throttle to limit total flow to each SG.

Incorrect - all AFW pumps start. If all the AF pumps start all the SMART valves will be closed due to the TD pump running. Plausible as on a normal trip SG levels shrink lower than the low SG level AFW actuation setpoint. Since the stem states all levels are higher than that and the TDAFW pump didn't get a start signal it would not be running Incorrect - no AFW pumps start. The SMART valves would not move if no pumps start. Plausible since the stem states that no SG level is lower than the actuation setpoint. If the student doesn't understand that the P-14 causes a trip of both MFW pumps which is a start for the MDAFW pumps.

Incorrect - only the TD pump starts. The D SMART valve will throttle but the others will stay open. Plausible if the student confuses which signal starts which pump Meets the K/A because the ability to determine the state of the AFW system on a loss of MFW is asked.

  • The Control room staff responded using the appropriate procedure.
  • Four minutes into the event the RO re-scans the alarm panels and notes the following alarms locked in.

Which of the following alarms would be the highest priority for the operators to address AND why?

A. 014D, S/U XFMR TROUBLE, restoring power B. 039A, LTDN HX TEMP HI DIVERT, RCS chemistry concerns C. 055B, ESW PMP B PRESS LO, cooling flow to the EDG D. 077E, SR HI VOLT FAIL, energizing SR detectors Answer: C Answer Explanation:

ALR 055C, OFN EF-033 Correct - with the loss of offsite power the only power left is safety related EDGs which are cooled by ESW. The ALR for 055C entry condition state that the pump has tripped and locked out so with no cooling water the EDG will trip on high temperature Incorrect - 014D comes in on any loss of normal power to it so with a loss of offsite power it will be in until power is restored. Not a priority over the EDG.

Plausible if the student believes that offsite power is more important than safety related power.

Incorrect - 039A comes in on the loss of offsite power due to the loss of CCW for a time and the letdown outlet temperature rising. Plausible if the student misunderstands this is a normal alarm for the loss of offsite power and thinks since there is no cleanup of the RCS water chemistry would be negatively affected.

Incorrect - 077E should be in until the SR detectors energize which should take place about 9 minutes after the reactor trip. Plausible if the student doesn't realize that at four minutes this should still be in.

Meets the K/A because this asks for which alarm is more important than other alarms.

RO knowledge because this is an entry condition into a procedure ALR.

14 ID: 98329 Points: 1.00 STS KJ-005A, MANUAL/AUTO START, SYNC & LOADING OF EDG NE01, is in progress. NE01 has been started from the Control Room and is running with all operating parameters indicating normal. The crew is about to sync NE01 with NB01 (offsite power) when NE01 output voltage goes to 0.

1. Which of the following will cause the above indications?
2. How must NE01 be shutdown given this failure?

A. 1. Loss of NK04 DC bus

2. By manually closing the fuel racks due to a loss of DC control power.

B. 1. Loss of NK01 DC bus

2. By manually closing the fuel racks due to a loss of DC control power.

C. 1. Loss of NK04 DC bus

2. From NE-107 using the STOP pushbutton because the control room switch has lost power.

D. 1. Loss of NK01 DC bus

2. From NE-107 using the STOP pushbutton because the control room switch has lost power.

Answer: B Answer Explanation:

NK01 supplies DC control power to NE01 for field flashing and control from the control room. If this DC is lost when the diesel is running the output voltage will go to 0 and the engine must be shutdown locally since no power to the control room switch no exists.

Correct - per the OFN notes (and the lesson plan) if NK01 is lost with NE01 operating the output voltage will drop to zero and the diesel cannot be synced with the bus. The diesel cannot be shutdown from the control room either it must me locally stopped using the manual lever on the fuel racks.

Incorrect - loss of NK04 and local fuel rack shutdown. NK04 is the control power to NE02. The second part is correct with this loss the fuel racks are the only way to stop the engine. Plausible if the student forgets which DC power supplies which EDG.

Incorrect - NK01 and shutdown from NE-107. The DC power is correct. The local panel and the control room use the DC power to control the EDG so with this loss the local pushbuttons will not work either. Plausible if the student forgets that the same DC power controls the switches in the control room and the local panel.

Incorrect - NK04 and shutdown from NE-107. NK04 is the control power for NE02. The local panel and the control room use the DC power to control the EDG so with this loss the local pushbuttons will not work either. Plausible if the student forgets that the same DC power controls the switches in the control room and the local panel.

Plausible if the student confuses which valves in the ESW system reposition and to what position.

Incorrect - EF-37 should be open to allow for the ESW system to discharge back to the UHS. Plausible if the student mistakes the return back to service water and UHS.

Incorrect - EF-60 should be closed since the bypass valves are throttled for proper flow through these heat exchangers. Plausible if the student confuses the bypass and the normal outlet valve positions.

  • A LOCA outside containment has occurred
  • SI has actuated
  • EMG C-12, LOCA OUTSIDE CONTAINMENT, has been entered Which ONE of the following actions will be attempted to isolate the break AND which indication is used to determine if the leak has been isolated?

A. Close RCP seal water return isolation valves (BB HIS-8141A, B, C, D) and monitor PZR level.

B. Close RCP seal water return isolation valves (BB HIS-8141A, B, C, D) and monitor RCS pressure.

C. Isolate RHR to Accumulator Injection Loop (EJ HIS 8809A) and monitor RCS pressure.

D. Isolate RHR to Accumulator Injection Loop (EJ HIS 8809A) and monitor PZR level.

Answer: C Answer Explanation:

EMG C-12 Correct - RHR to accumulator injection loop and RCS pressure. This is the only indication that is looked for in C-12. The RHR cold leg injection valve is specifically called out.

Incorrect - RCP seal return isolation valves and PZR level. C-12 doesn't look at PZR level as an indication that the leak is isolated. RCP common seal return valve is closed not each individual valve. Also the individual valves are inside containment not outside. Plausible if the student doesn't understand what indications to look for in C-12 for leak isolation and if RCP seal return valves are mistaken for being outside of containment.

Incorrect - RCP seal return isolation valves and RCS pressure. RCP wrong for reasons above. RCS pressure is correct. Plausible if the student thinks the RCP seal return valves are outside of containment.

Incorrect - RHR to accumulator injection loop and PZR level. RHR valves are correct but PZR level is not for reasons given above. Plausible if the student doesn't understand what indications to look for in C-12 for leak isolation.

17 ID: 98332 Points: 1.00 The plant was tripped from full power due to a LOCA outside of containment. The crew has transitioned to EMG C-11, LOSS OF EMERGENCY COOLANT RECIRCULATION.

Which ONE of the following signals will the crew reset while in this procedure AND why?

A. P-4 (reactor trip) to allow reset / re-arming of SI.

B. Phase A isolation to restore control of valves to operators.

C. ONLY the SI signal to prevent ECCS pumps from restarting when they are placed in Normal-After-Stop.

D. ONLY the SI (RWST) signal to prevent possible loss of RWST inventory to the containment sump and damage to the RHR pumps.

Answer: D Answer Explanation:

System knowledge of an SI signal and the RWST water level coming down makes this question not a procedure knowledge question but understanding how the system works. The SI reset which was performed in the previous procedures that sent you to C-11, is only part of the swapover for the RWST reset logic.

There is a separate switch for the SI (RWST) swapover that now needs to be reset or the swapover will still occur. The original SI reset just allowed ECCS pumps and valves to be operated as normal without the signal changing any operations of the equipment back to its safeguards lineup.

Correct - Since the SI signal has been reset this will allow the reset of the SI (RWST) signal now to stop the auto swapover to the CTMT sump (that is empty) which would allow RWST water to be lost from injection and damage to the RHR pumps due to no suction source.

Incorrect - only the SI signal. This has been reset in other procedures prior to this point but if this were reset (which is needed to reset the SI (RWST) signal then this would only be part of the signals that need reset in this procedure.

Plausible if the student doesn't understand how the SI and the swapover for the RWST signals work together since the LOCA is outside of CTMT there is no water in the sump for the RHR pump to use if an auto swap were to occur.

Incorrect - P-4. This is an active signal since the plant was tripped. Plausible if the student thinks that P-4 needs to be reset to allow for a second SI for this accident.

Incorrect - Phase A. This is an active signal since the plant was tripped from full power. Plausible if the student thinks that the phase A signal is preventing the proper positioning of valves.

Meets the K/A because it asks for the knowledge of interrelations between the loss of recirc and a component (RHR). Since this procedure assumes there is no water in the CTMT sump protecting the RHR pumps is an interrelation for the loss of recirc.

Rev 0

RO knowledge because it does not ask for the procedure step it only puts the crew in the procedure but asks what signals should be reset to protect what equipment. This is system knowledge of the SI signal and the RWST swapover signal.

  • The plant is at 100% power
  • DG 'A' has been paralleled with bus NB01 and is carrying 5.8 MWe of load in accordance with STS KJ-015A, MANUAL/AUTO FAST START SYNCHRONIZATION AND LOADING OF EDG NE01
  • ANN 019E, NB01 BUS DGRD VOLT, alarms
  • 55 seconds later, BKR 13-48, #7 XFMR OUTPUT BKR, trips open With NO Operator actions, what is the current status of the 'A' Train Safeguards Power system?

A. NB01 Normal Feeder Breaker is CLOSED, NE01 will stop.

B. NB01 Emergency Supply Breaker is OPEN, NE01 will stop.

C. NB01 Normal Feeder Breaker is CLOSED, NE01 will remain running.

D. NB01 Emergency Supply Breaker is OPEN, NE01 will remain running.

Answer: C Answer Explanation:

OFN NB-042, SY1406401 R7 Correct - NB01 Normal Feeder Breaker will remain CLOSED, NE01 will remain running. Once the 13-48 breaker detaches the NB bus from the switchyard, the NB voltage returns to normal values (or a little higher), and the Normal supply breaker remains shut. The EDG remains running despite the load reject.

Incorrect - NB01 Normal Feeder Breaker will remain CLOSED, NE01 will stop.

Right breaker position, D/G will not stop. The loss of load that the EDG will experience when the BKR 13-48 Normal supply breaker opens will not overspeed the EDG.

Incorrect - NB01 Emergency Supply Breaker will OPEN, NE01 will stop. Breaker will remain closed, D/G will not stop. -- There is nothing in the current condition to cause the EDG output breaker to open, and the EDG will not overspeed or stop itself.

Incorrect - NB01 Emergency Supply Breaker will OPEN, NE01 will remain running. Wrong breaker position, right NE01 status. There is nothing in the current condition to cause the EDG output breaker to open.

Comments: ALR 00-019E states that if the EDG is in parallel then to stop parallel operation. OFN NB-042, LOSS OF OFFSITE POWER TO NB01 (NB02)

WITH EDG PARALLELED requires removing power from the switchyard first and then opening the EDG breaker to cause the UV on the bus for emergency operation.

Rev 0

Additional insights: This question is essentially the basis for why OFN NB-042 was created and why we keep a dedicated operator during diesel runs with the engine paralleled. The issue is that an upstream transient may be isolated prior to the bus feeder breaker. If the bus feeder breaker remains closed, the diesel will not shift to emergency mode. Without an SI present, 55 seconds is not long enough for the degraded voltage condition to open the bus feeder breaker. The transformer feeder breaker opens, but there is no transformer lockout. The diesel is tested by surveillance to withstand up to full load reject. The EDG will restore voltage once divorced from the degraded offsite source. The voltage will likely go high, but not excessively due to the power factor limitations in the STS procedure. The operators will perform the actions of OFN NB-042 to place the EDG in emergency mode.

Meets the K/A because it asks for ability to interpret grid disturbances and status of the EDG RO knowledge since this is system understanding of the output breaker of the EDG and NB01 normal power supply breaker.

  • Unit is operating at 100% power
  • Rod Control selector switch is in Auto
  • Control Bank 'D' rods are parked at 231 steps
  • NO operator actions have been taken Which of the following statements is correct with regard to this event AND why?

A. Tave will return to program due to rods stepping OUT.

B. RCS pressure will remain lower than program due to the lower Tave.

C. Main Turbine electrical load lowered due to lower S/G pressures.

D. Tref returns to previous value due to control valves not changing position.

Answer: C Answer Explanation:

SY1511701 4.1.1 Open Loop/Valve Management In OPEN LOOP, the main turbine control system will maintain a steady control valve position without any feedback mechanism. Ovation will position the turbine control valves as needed to establish its interpretation of megawatts based on valve position curves developed by the vendor. Valve curves have been updated and more will be more finely tuned by DCP 14452 (Rev 1) software upgrade.

With a dropped rod at 100% power Tave will lower causing auto rod motion OUT.

Since D bank rods are already at 231 they will only move out to 232 and stop (C-11). With this small rod step and the fact that rods don't have much 'bite' at this height Tave will not return to target and will stay lower than program. This lower Tave will cause the SG pressures to lower thereby lowering overall steam flow to the main turbine. Since the turbine is in open loop mode the control valves will receive no feedback to change valve position so the overall affect is lower electrical output with no operator action.

Correct - main turbine load will lower due to lower SG pressures due to lower Tave Incorrect - Tave will return to program. Tave will remain lower since control rods can only step 4 steps and don't affect temperature much at this height. Tave will stay lower even with the rods stepping out. Plausible if the student thinks that rods will return temperature back to program.

Rev 0

Incorrect - RCS pressure will remain lower than program. Pressure is dictated by PZR program from the master pressure controller which is not affected by the dropped rod or any other things that happen due to this. Plausible if the student confuses the pressure controller with the level which is controlled from Tref and Tave.

Incorrect - Tref returns to previous value. Plausible if the student confuses what controls Tref. Tref is controlled by first stage impulse pressure which will remain lower due to lower SG pressure and valves not moving in this mode of operation Meets K/A because it asks for knowledge of rods and turbine load changes (reason)

  • Plant is in MODE 5.
  • Chemistry reports that RCS boron concentration is now 150 ppm lower than the previous sample.
  • The crew recognizes that Shutdown Margin is NOT being met, and initiates an emergency boration using 'A' BA Transfer pump.
  • The RO reports BG FI-183A, EMERG BORATE FLOW, indicates 25 gpm.

Based on this information, the crew will A. align the RWST to the CCP suction.

B. check when emergency boration can be stopped.

C. align a Safety Injection Pump for Emergency Boration.

D. check if normal letdown can be established with current plant conditions.

Answer: A Answer Explanation:

Correct - if flow is less than 30 gpm then the procedure directs using the RWST as a suction source Incorrect - check when emergency boration can be stopped. Plausible if the student thinks this is enough flow from the emergency boration flow path.

Incorrect - Use an SI pump. This alignment is used when Charging System is NOT aligned as operable flowpath (step 1) and since the stem indicates the crew has passed that step because they have indicated flow. Plausible if the student confuses the low flow with the need to use a different pump.

Incorrect - check if normal letdown can be established. Plausible if the student thinks the emergency boration flow rate is good and wants to continue to put the system back in a normal alignment.

Meets K/A because after the BA pump is started the ability to monitor its normal operation is needed to understand that 25 gpm is not enough flow from it so it is broke and the procedure has the crew use a different pump for this.

A. SJ RE-01, CVCS Letdown Monitor B. SD RE-39, Reactor Seal Table Area Monitor C. GT RE-59, CTMT High Range Area Monitor D. GT RE-31, Containment Atmosphere Monitor Answer: A Answer Explanation:

Correct - this monitor is listed as the only rad monitor that is a direct entry into the off normal procedure. It monitors the letdown line for activity in the RCS water which would be an indication of high RCS activity.

Incorrect - GT RE-59. This monitor is the containment high range rad monitor whose function is to give rad levels in the event of a LOCA inside containment.

This monitor would show higher than normal radiation levels but since it only shows a high range the letdown monitor would alarm well prior to this one showing any change since the bottom range is 1 R. Plausible if the student confuses monitor functions.

Incorrect - SD RE-39. This monitor checks for high radiation at the reactor seal table which would show higher than normal rad levels but is not intended to be an RCS activity monitor. Plausible if the student confuses monitor functions.

Incorrect - GT RE-31. This monitor checks for high containment airborne activity.

This is an atmosphere monitor so this would look for a leak of RCS water into containment. Plausible if the student confuses monitor functions.

25 ID: 98340 Points: 1.00 During the performance of EMG FR-Z1, RESPONSE TO HIGH CONTAINMENT PRESSURE, which of the following valves will be checked closed AND why?

A. KC HV-253, Fire Protection System Header Outside CTMT Isolation To ensure all non-essential containment penetrations are closed to prevent the release of radioactive materials.

B. EG HV-058, CCW To RCS Outer CTMT Isolation Valve To ensure all the containment penetrations are isolated since this could be the source of the high containment pressure.

C. EG HV-058, CCW To RCS Outer CTMT Isolation Valve To ensure all non-essential containment penetrations are closed to prevent the release of radioactive materials.

D. KC HV-253, Fire Protection System Header Outside CTMT Isolation To ensure all the containment penetrations are isolated since this could be the source of the high containment pressure.

Answer: A Answer Explanation:

Correct - per FR-Z1 basis for step 1 and 2 the reason for ensuring the valves are isolated is to prevent a radioactive release from a non-essential containment penetration. CISA closes the fire header valve (this valve is manually closed during normal ops but still receives a signal to close)

Incorrect - EG HV-058 and prevent the release of rad materials. Phase B will isolate the CCW system from containment not phase A. Plausible if the student confuses which signal closes which valves. The reason is correct.

Incorrect - EG HV-058 and pens closed for high pressure. Phase B will isolate the CCW system from containment not phase A. Plausible if the student confuses which signal closes which valves. The reason is plausible since water injected from any system could raise CTMT pressure.

Incorrect - KC HV-253 and pens closed for high pressure. Correct valve wrong reason. Plausible as any injection from any water source could cause CTMT pressure to rise.

A. The B CCP will be running with the A SI pump running.

B. The A CCP will be running with NO SI pumps running.

C. The A CCP will be running with the A SI pump running.

D. The B CCP will be running with NO SI pumps running.

Answer: A Answer Explanation:

To get to this point in this procedure you will have had to go from E-0 to E-1 to ES-11. All prior procedures were checked to determine the appropriate indications given for this setup.

RCS subcooling - with pressure at 585 psig saturation temperature is 486°F so 486°F - 404°F = 82°F of subcooling In ES-11 steps 21 and 22 Correct - 'B' CCP and A SI pump. There are two CCPs running so the step will be performed. There are two RCP's running and one SI pump running and with adverse containment 70°F of subcooling is needed to stop the A CCP. There is a note stating that pumps should be stopped in alternate trains so you would not stop the B CCP with the B SI pump tagged out. The next step asks if any SI pumps are running which is yes, so with one CCP running and two RCP's running and one SI pump running 150°F of subcooling is needed. Subcooling is not met so step 22.c RNO directs the crew if RCS temperature is greater than 375°F then go to step 40 and not to stop the running SI pump.

The procedure step states pumps should be stopped in opposite trains. Without a reason for not stopping pumps in this manner they will be.

Rev 0

Incorrect - B CCP with NO SI pumps. There is a note that states pumps should be stopped in alternate trains so the B CCP will be the pump that is stopped. SI pump will not be stopped because subcooling is not met. Plausible if the student fails to use the adverse containment subcooling value and chooses to stop the pump.

Incorrect - A CCP with NO SI pumps. A CCP is correct. SI pump will not be stopped because subcooling is not met. Plausible if the student fails to use the adverse containment subcooling value and chooses to stop the pump.

Incorrect - B CCP with A SI pump running. There is a note that states pumps should be stopped in alternate trains so the B CCP will be the pump that is stopped.

EMG FR-C2, RESPONSE TO DEGRADED CORE COOLING, has been entered.

A depressurization of the Steam Generators (SGs) is being performed in accordance with EMG FR-C2, when the STA reports that there is a Red Path on the Integrity CSF Status Tree.

Which ONE (1) of the following describes the actions that will be taken?

A. Complete the S/G depressurization and then transition to EMG FR-P1, RESPONSE TO IMMINENT PRESSURIZED THERMAL SHOCK CONDITIONS, if the red path still exists B. Immediately transition to EMG FR-P1, RESPONSE TO IMMINENT PRESSURIZED THERMAL SHOCK CONDITIONS C. Complete FR-C2 and then transition to EMG FR-P1, RESPONSE TO IMMINENT PRESSURIZED THERMAL SHOCK CONDITIONS, if the red path still exists D. Stop the S/G depressurization and, if the red path does NOT clear, transition to EMG FR-P1, RESPONSE TO IMMINENT PRESSURIZED THERMAL SHOCK CONDITIONS Answer: C Answer Explanation:

Correct - Because of the SG depressurization, a Red condition on Integrity is expected. If this is not performed and a transition is made then the overall affect would end up being entry into C-1 inadequate core cooling and that is worse than staying in C-2. There is a NOTE in C2 telling the crew NOT to go to P1 if a red condition exists.

Incorrect - immediately transition to P-1. Plausible if the student misunderstands the direction in the note with respect to the direction in the procedure users guide about higher tear procedures.

Incorrect - stop the SG depressurization. Plausible since the action the operator did caused the red path so if they stop it and the red path clears then they might want to stay. Procedure use and adherence understanding.

Incorrect - complete the SG depressurization. Plausible since the FR procedure directed the action after the action then the student may think a transition now needs to be completed.

28 ID: 98343 Points: 1.00 The plant is operating at 45% power, steady state when 'A' RCP experiences an Under-Frequency trip due to an electrical fault. The PA buses continue to operate as normal.

Which of the following describes the 'A' loop RCS temperatures and 'A' S/G response from time 0 to 1 minute after the RCP trip?

(assume NO operator actions)

A. Initially to several seconds later there is little change in Thot and Tcold, after that out to 1 minute the difference is lowering rapidly.

S/G pressure is higher than pre-trip and steam flow is higher.

B. Initially to several seconds later the difference between Thot and Tcold is changing rapidly, after that out to 1 minute the change is smaller.

S/G pressure is higher than pre-trip and steam flow is higher.

C. Initially to several seconds later there is little change in Thot and Tcold, after that out to 1 minute the difference is lowering rapidly.

S/G pressure is the same as pre-trip and steam flow is close to 0.

D. Initially to several seconds later the difference between Thot and Tcold is changing rapidly, after that out to 1 minute the change is smaller.

S/G pressure is the same as pre-trip and steam flow is close to 0.

Answer: C Answer Explanation:

Ran this on the desktop simulator to gather information from. From the time the RCP trip was inserted the RCS loop temperatures slowly converged toward each other. After the flywheel lost forward inertia the temperature difference rapidly converged and then Thot ended up lower than Tcold because of reverse flow in the loop and the SG still removing some heat (not much). The SG pressures were equal to the other SGs since they are all still connected together but the steam flow from the affected loop went down to near 0. Flow from the other pumps goes up due to the loss of the flow from the affected loop.

Correct - The response of Th and Tc is due to the design coast down of the RCPs which lasts approximately 1-1.5 minutes (30 seconds per TS). Although both temperatures will be lower, Th will lower faster than Tc due to the sudden, significant reduction in heat generated by the reactor going to that SG. SG pressure will be relatively stable Incorrect - time 0 little change then rapid change and SG pressure higher. The first part is correct. The affected SG is now not producing any power for the turbine so the other SG must make up the loss of steam flow from this loop so overall pressure is lower not higher. Plausible if the student thinks that the loss of steam flow is because the pressure is higher.

Incorrect - time 0 rapid change then Th and Tc equal and SG pressure same.

The SG pressure is correct. Plausible if the student forgets about the flywheel effect on the RCS indications.

Rev 0

Incorrect - time 0 rapid change then Th and Tc equal and SG pressure higher.

Plausible if the student forgets about the flywheels effect on the RCS indications.

Also the affected SG is now not producing any power for the turbine so the other SG must make up the loss of steam flow from this loop so overall pressure is lower not higher. Plausible if the student thinks that the loss of steam flow is because the pressure is higher.

A. Reactor power will continue to rise until trip on IR high flux.

B. Reactor power will continue to rise too slightly above the POAH.

C. Reactor power will continue to lower until subcriticality is reached.

D. Reactor power will remain constant because charging is flowing to RCP seals ONLY at this point.

Answer: B Answer Explanation:

Correct - At this power level there is no feedback from temperature of the RCS.

As the dilution continues power will rise until the POAH is reached at then power will level off and stay there.

Incorrect - no plant response since charging to seals only. This is a possible lineup for the RCP seals and charging. Plausible if the student mistakes the current normal plant lineup.

Incorrect - lower power until subcritical. This would be true if the setting on the pot was higher than the current RCS boron concentration. Plausible if the student forgets which way the controller works.

Incorrect - trip on IR high flux. If power were to rise above the POAH and did not turn this would happen next. Plausible if the student mistakes the dilution and no operator action with the low power trips and forgets the POAH effects of temperature.

Meets the KA by asking the operational implications of a dilution from the CVCS system.

Which of the following lists the changes in the indications for this failure?

LTDN HX OUTLET LTDN HX OUTLET FLOW PRESS A. DOWN UP B. UP UP C. UP DOWN D. DOWN DOWN Answer: A Answer Explanation:

Correct- With a failure of the BG PK-131 controller to 0% demand this closes the valve fully. This will cause the letdown relief valve inside containment to lift, causing all letdown flow to be directed to the PRT. This will cause pressure to go up and flow back to the VCT (outlet flow) to go down.

'B' CCW surge tank vent valve indicates closed

'B' CCW surge tank level is up slow Based on the given indications:

1) Where is the leak coming from?
2) What actions will the crew perform per procedure?

A. 1. Letdown Heat Exchanger

2. Bypass the heat exchanger B. 1. Seal Water Heat Exchanger
2. Bypass the heat exchanger C. 1. Seal Water Heat Exchanger
2. Isolate seal water D. 1. Letdown Heat Exchanger
2. Isolate letdown Answer: D Answer Explanation:

The given conditions are indicative of a leak into the CCW system and since the vent valve has closed the water leaking in is radioactive. The surge tank level rising with no makeup also gives indication that water is leaking into the CCW system. Other indications do change but are not required to diagnose this leak location. Of the two locations given in the distractors for the leak only one is higher pressure than CCW. The seal water heat exchanger is lower pressure so the leak would be lowering surge tank level. Since the water in the seal water heat exchanger is radioactive and the procedure does have the crew bypass this component if the leak is suspected there the distractors are very plausible if the student confuses which pressure is higher.

Correct - Per procedure if the leak is not in the seal water heat exchanger the crew is directed to isolate the leak and return to procedure in effect.

Incorrect - Letdown, bypass. The location is correct but there is no procedure direction to bypass this heat exchanger only to isolate it. Plausible if the student confuses the letdown and seal water heat exchanger procedure directions.

Incorrect - Seal water, isolate. This is the wrong location since this heat exchanger is lower pressure than CCW. The procedure has this heat exchanger bypass and not isolated. Plausible if the student confuses which is at higher pressure and which gets bypassed vs isolated.

Rev 0

Incorrect - Seal water, bypass. This is the wrong location but the correct action for a leak in this heat exchanger. Plausible if the student confuses which heat exchanger is higher pressure since the procedure will direct bypassing the seal water one.

  • BB ZL-455C, PZR SPRAY LOOP 2 CTRL VLV, green light lit red light out with controller demand output at 0%
  • BB PK-455A, PZR PRESS MASTER CTRL, demand indicates 40% and down slow
  • ALR 033C, PZR PRESS LO HTRS ON, is lit Which of the following procedures AND actions will mitigate this event?

A. Enter ALR 033C, PZR PRESS LO HTRS ON, and energize PZR backup heaters.

B. Enter ALR 033C, PZR PRESS LO HTRS ON, trip the reactor and stop 'A' and

'D' RCP's.

C. Enter OFN SB-008, INSTRUMENT MALFUNCTIONS, take manual control of BB PK-455B and CLOSE the valve.

D. Enter OFN SB-008, INSTRUMENT MALFUNCTIONS, and select an alternate PZR pressure channel for control.

Answer: C Answer Explanation:

Correct - with 35% demand and both green and red lights lit on one spray valve RCS pressure will be lowering. OFN SB-008 Att V memory action steps have the RO take manual control of either the spray valve or the PZR pressure master controller and control spray flow, in this case close the spray valve is the only choice since the master controller is at 40% and down slow and the other spray valve is closed. The master pressure controller will not correct this failure.

Incorrect - ALR 033C and trip reactor and stop A and D RCP's. This ALR would be correct for this issue but not to trip the reactor and stop RCP's. Plausible if the student feels no actions taken will stop the pressure from lowering to less than the reactor trip setpoint and stopping RCP's will stop the pressure from dropping any lower.

Incorrect - ALR 033C and energize PZR heaters. This ALR would be correct for this issue but energizing heaters will only at most delay a reactor trip on low pressure if more action is not taken. Plausible if the student feels that the heaters alone will mitigate the pressure lowering.

Rev 0

Incorrect - OFN SB-008 and select alternate pressure channel. Correct procedure but with the indications given a pressure channel has not failed.

Plausible if the student feels that selecting out a failed pressure channel will stop the pressure from lowering any more.

Which of the following describes why this alarm is received?

A. Due to a loss of a DC power supply on one train of RPS.

B. Due to a loss of an output relay cabinet in RPS.

C. Due to a loss of input relays on one train of RPS.

D. Due to the loss of the ability to trip the 'B' reactor trip breaker.

Answer: A Answer Explanation:

Correct - NN02 supplies power to RPS in three places. Two are the input relays for the white train of logic. The other one is 15/48 VDC logic cabinet power supply to B train only.

Incorrect - output relay cabinet. The output relay cabinets are powered from NN01 and NN04.

Incorrect - input relay on one train. NN02 powers up both trains white channel inputs not just one.

Incorrect - loss of ability to trip the B trip breaker. General warning alarm is associated with the rod control system and trip breakers are the source of power for the rod control system. Plausible if the student puts this together wrong and believes this will prevent the trip breaker opening from the control room.

A. YES, H2 fans will need to be manually started.

B. NO, H2 fans will need to be manually started.

C. YES, there will be NO effect on plant equipment.

D. NO, there will be NO effect on plant equipment.

Answer: D Answer Explanation:

M-744-00025 Correct - SI signals once started require a 60 second timer to complete before any other actions with the related equipment can be completed. This also locks out any reset of the SI prior to this timer completing.

Incorrect - No, H2 fan need manual start. The SI signal part is correct you cannot reset it until the timer is complete. H2 fans will start at 60 seconds since there is no input from the SI signal except to start an independent timer that will restart these fans after 60 seconds regardless of any other action taken by the crew.

Incorrect - Yes, H2 fan need manual start. The SI signal will block all reset attempts until its 60 second timer completes. H2 fans will start at 60 seconds since there is no input from the SI signal except to start an independent timer that will restart these fans after 60 seconds regardless of any other action taken by the crew.

Which of the following is the correct response to this event AND why?

The 'A' Cavity Cooling fan...

A. auto starts to provide cooling to the incore instrumentation vessel connections.

B. must be manually started to provide cooling to the incore instrumentation vessel connections.

C. must be manually started to provide cooling to the excore NIs to prevent possible damage due to high temperatures.

D. auto starts to provide cooling to the excore NIs to prevent possible damage due to high temperatures.

Answer: D Answer Explanation:

SY1302600 Correct - a loss of power to the running fan will auto start the other fan. One of the functions of these fans is to cool the excore NI detectors to a max of 135F.

This allows them to operate properly and give reliable indications. As stated in the NI LP if temperature gets too high for the detectors they will not provide accurate indication.

Incorrect - Auto start and cool the instrument vessel connections. The first part is correct it will auto start. The instrument vessel connections are on top of the head and not cooled by the cavity cooling fans. Plausible if the student confuses where the fans discharge to.

Incorrect - manual start and cools excore NIs. The fans will auto start on a loss of power, that is all that will auto start them. A failure of the running fan will not start its counterpart. The second part is correct. Plausible if the student remembers that the fans don't start on a malfunction of the fan but forgets that loss of power is not a malfunction of the fan.

Incorrect - manual start and cools instrument vessel connections. The fans will auto start on a loss of power, that is all that will auto start them. A failure of the running fan will not start its counterpart. The instrument vessel connections are on top of the head and not cooled by the cavity cooling fans. Plausible if the student forgets what starts the fans and where they discharge to.

A. Fails LOW. Take manual control of Main Feedwater Regulating valves.

B. Fails LOW. Take manual control of Main Feedwater pump speed.

C. Fails HIGH. Take manual control of Main Feedwater pump speed.

D. Fails HIGH. Take manual control of Main Feedwater Regulating valves.

Answer: B Answer Explanation:

Correct - this is an input to the feed pump speed control circuit so when this fails low the MFP will speed up causing an initial SG level rise. To fix this per OFN SB-008 take manual control of the MFP speed controller.

Incorrect - AE PT-508 fails high take manual control of main feed reg valves.

This failure will cause a lowering of main feed pump to restore program differential pressure for the main feed pump. The OFN will have the BOP take manual control of the pump not each feed reg valve. Plausible if the student confuses what inputs to the main feed pump speed and what affect it would have on the system as well as this action is required for other failures within the feed system.

Incorrect - AE PT-508 fails high take manual control of main feed pump speed.

Correct procedure action to take but the failure will cause a lowering of main feed pump to restore program differential pressure for the main feed pump. Plausible if the student confuses what inputs to the main feed pump speed and what affect it would have on the system.

Incorrect - AE PT-508 fails low take manual control of main feed reg valves.

Correct failure to cause the initial rise in main feed pump speed to raise flow to all SG but the OFN will have the BOP take manual control of the pump not each feed reg valve. Plausible since this is an action for different failures within the main feed pump and feed reg valves.

'B' MDAFWP fails to start Based on the information given what is the status of the following MDAFW valves 1 minute later?

X=CLOSED O=OPEN A S/G MD B S/G MD C S/G MD D S/G MD A. X O O X B. X X X X C. O X X X D. O X X O Answer: C Answer Explanation:

Validated on the desktop simulator With the reactor trip from 100% AFW will start on SG low level. The TDAFWP will start and flow to all SGs and discharge valves will not throttle they will stay full open. The B MDAFWP starting allows the signal to be sent to the smart valves to arm and throttle flow. The D SG MD valve works different. When the B MD pump trips the D SG valve will throttle closed base on flow from the TD pump but the A SG valve will stay open since the B MD pump is not running. For the smart valves to work the MD pump must be running but D SG is different.

Correct - With a start or not start of the B MD pump the D SG smart valve will still throttle closed due to flow from the TDAFW pump. But the A SG valve will not close because the B MD pump is not running which is required to make this valve work as design Incorrect - all closed. This is the normal response if no failure happens. All smart valve close based on flow. Plausible if the confuses the fact that since flow is going to all SG that all smart valves should function as normal.

Incorrect - A and D open, B and C closed. This is what would happen if the A MD pump failed to start. Plausible if the student confuses what pump feeds what SG. Correct is A - BC and B - AD Incorrect - A and D closed, B and C open. Plausible if the student understands how the smart valves work but forgets the D SG valve is wired different.

The EDG has been in parallel with offsite power for 90 minutes when the following indications are noted:

AC Megawatts 6801 kW and stable NB01 bus voltage 4.25 kV and stable Which of the following is correct with regard to this surveillance?

A. Lower bus voltage to prevent damage to the bus.

B. Lower bus voltage to prevent damage to the EDG.

C. Limit total run time at this kW level to prevent damage to the EDG.

D. Limit total run time at this kW level to prevent damage to the bus.

Answer: C Answer Explanation:

Correct - continuous loading of the EDG is limited to 6.2 Mw, any loading over that is limited by time. Loading over 6.2 to 6.8 Mw is limited to 2 hours2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br /> by procedure. Operation with this high of loading can cause overheating and insulation breakdown over time.

Incorrect - limit total time to prevent damage to the bus. The bus can handle more load than the EDG so this is a correct limit for the EDG but not the bus.

Plausible if the student confuses the voltage and the MW limit.

Incorrect - lower voltage to prevent damage to the bus. This voltage is a little high but within normal limits. Plausible if the student confuses the voltage limit and the MW limit and believes that overall bus damage would occur at this voltage level.

Incorrect - lower voltage to prevent damage to the EDG. This voltage is a little high but within normal limits. Plausible if the student confuses the voltage limit and the MW limit.

The unit is at full power DC Breaker NK0111, INVERTER NN11 input from NK01, fails and opens Which of the following describes the Main Control Board annunciator response AND the operation of the NN11 transfer switch?

A. 025A, NN01 INST BUS UV, is received The transfer switch automatically transfers to the bypass source B. 025A, NN01 INST BUS UV, is received The transfer switch must be manually transferred to the bypass source C. 025B, NN11 INV TRBL/XFR, is received The transfer switch automatically transfers to the bypass source D. 025B, NN11 INV TRBL/XFR, is received The transfer switch must be manually transferred to the bypass source Answer: C Answer Explanation:

Correct - With the loss of the input DC from the battery to the NN inverter the inverter will auto swap to the bypass source (static transfer switch). This will cause only the trouble alarm 025B to come into the control room. The NN bus is still energized and working just with a different power supply.

Incorrect - 025B and manually transferred. The alarm is correct but the operation of the transfer switch is auto not manual. Plausible since this piece of equipment was replaced with a new one in spring of 2015.

Incorrect - 025A and auto transferred. The NN bus will not lose voltage and will operate normally just on the bypass source. The second part is correct.

Plausible if the student thinks this DC input loss will cause the NN bus to become de-energized.

Incorrect - 025A and manually transferred. The NN bus will not lose voltage and will operate normally just on the bypass source. The operation of the transfer switch is auto not manual. Plausible if the student thinks this DC input loss will cause the NN bus to become de-energized and since this equipment was replace in spring of 2015.

Meets KA because student must know the expected response of the DC electrical system in order to monitor that response. As the DC system feeds the NN inverters and when there is a problem with the DC input the inverter will swap to an alternate source. This indicates that there is a problem with the DC source.

49 ID: 98364 Points: 1.00 The unit was operating at full power when a LOCA occurred.

20 seconds AFTER the LOCA sequencer activated a CSAS signal was generated.

At what time will the Containment Spray pumps start AND why?

A. Time 60 seconds, to prevent a trip of the EDG output breaker.

B. Time 40 seconds, to prevent a trip of the EDG output breaker.

C. Time 40 seconds, to ensure all Containment fans are running prior to spray starting.

D. Time 60 seconds, to ensure all Containment fans are running prior to spray starting.

Answer: B Answer Explanation:

E-12NF01; SY 1406401 and Figure 7.

If a CSAS is not present at the 15 second step on the LOCA sequencer circuit, the Containment Spray Pumps are prevented from automatically starting until the 25 second timer is completed. This timer starts at time 15 seconds on the LOCA sequencer if the spray signal does not exist at that time. The earliest it could start in this case would be 40 seconds (15 + 25 = 40). The reason is to allow the starting current to decay down prior to starting the next required load to prevent the EDG output breaker from tripping on over current.

Correct - based on the block of the CSAS until the LOCA sequencer is at 40 seconds.

Incorrect - time 40, ensure all containment fans are running. Time is correct.

The H2 fans shift to slow speed at time 60 seconds (separate timer than the LOCA sequencer). Plausible if the student knows the time but not the reason since fans do start all the way out to the 60 second mark.

Incorrect - time 60, prevent a trip of the EDG output breaker. The H2 fans shift to slow speed at time 60 seconds (separate timer than the LOCA sequencer).

Plausible if the student confuses which loads sequenced on the safeguards bus since the H2 fans do shift at this point.

Incorrect - time 60, ensure all containment fans are running. The H2 fans shift to slow speed at time 60 seconds (separate timer than the LOCA sequencer).

Plausible if the student confuses the loads sequenced on the safeguards bus and the reason for the delay in the start for the spray pump.

50 ID: 98365 Points: 1.00 At 10:00 Wolf Creek experienced a loss of off-site power.

At 10:30 Off-site power has been restored and is ready to be re-aligned to the safety related busses.

The RO is performing SYS NB-201, TRANSFERRING NB01 POWER SOURCES, to restore normal off-site power to NB01.

The synchroscope is placed in the Main Feeder Position and is rotating slowly in the SLOW direction (counter clockwise).

Incoming voltage is 4185 VAC NB01 bus voltage is 4130 VAC What actions must the RO take to parallel the EDG with the off-site source?

A. Raise EDG speed, Raise EDG voltage B. Lower EDG speed, Raise EDG voltage C. Raise EDG speed, Lower EDG voltage D. Lower EDG speed, Lower EDG voltage Answer: B Answer Explanation:

This starts in OFN NB-035, LOSS OF OFFSITE POWER RESTORATION, and then that sends you to the SYS procedure to complete the swap.

Correct - by lowering the speed of the diesel then the offsite source will be faster (sync scope is rotating with the incoming source not the diesel) and the sync permissives will be met. The voltage must be raised for the diesel so the breaker can be closed and because the procedure has the operator match voltage. This will allow all the permissives to be met and the normal feeder breaker to be closed.

Incorrect - Lower and lower. Lower speed is correct. Lowering voltage will cause the diesel to be greater than 50 volts lower than offsite power. The procedure says to match voltage with offsite. Plausible if the student confuses which source is on the bus and which source is incoming.

Incorrect - Raise and lower. If speed is raised then the sync scope will rotate fast in the slow direction since it is looking and the incoming source compared to the running source. Lowering voltage will cause the diesel to be greater than 50 volts lower than offsite power. The procedure says to match voltage with offsite.

Plausible if the student confuses which source is on the bus and which source is incoming.

Incorrect - Raise and raise. If speed is raised then the sync scope will rotate fast in the slow direction since it is looking and the incoming source compared to the running source. Raise voltage is correct.

51 ID: 98366 Points: 1.00 The RO is performing a source check of a detector on RM-11R (SP056A).

What is the reason for performing this function prior to an effluent release?

A. Cause the ALERT alarm to come in to check its setpoint.

B. Calibrate the detector prior to performing a radioactive release.

C. Prove the monitor is functional to ensure monitoring of the release.

D. Check that the display colors change due to increased rad levels from the detector.

Answer: C Answer Explanation:

SYS SP-121, ALR 062C, SY1407200. All discuss the way to perform a check source and the proper outcome of the test to ensure the monitor is operable. It also discusses what is seen if the check source fails. Precaution of the SYS states that if the monitor check source is energized and the detector reaches the source limit that it is a SAT check. The source check is only about a third decade per minute so no alarms will come in due to the check. The check is to determine if the monitor can detect radiation only, not a calibration check of alarm setpoints or accuracy.

Correct - per the SYS the monitor check is to determine if the monitor is operable or not.

Incorrect - Calibrate the detector. The check source is only a response test not a calibration of the detector. Plausible as the detector does need to be calibrated prior to use but this is not the correct way to perform that.

Incorrect - Cause the alert alarm. This will only indicate that the detector will show a response not raise it to the level of an alarm. Plausible since all the detectors do have alarm setpoint that should be checked prior to a release but this check will not set them off.

Incorrect - Display color change. While this will cause the display color to change from green to half intensity cyan for the duration of the test it will go back to green when completed sat. The color change is not why the test is ran just an indication that the test is running. Plausible since this does take place but not to just see the color change its for response check.

Incorrect - Place both ESW Trains in service. Trip the Turbine if any trip setpoint is reached. INCORRECT, plausible since a Turbine trip setpoint may be challenged, however to ensure adequate core cooling the reactor is tripped first and the P-4 signal will trip the turbine. Tripping the turbine will not necessarily trip the reactor if a load runback occurred due to stator water temperature increasing.

Incorrect - Start both ESW Trains, with one train supplying Service Water. Trip the Reactor if any Turbine trip setpoint is reached. INCORRECT, plausible since the loss of heat sink to the secondary components is the concern.

56 ID: 98371 Points: 1.00 Given the following with the unit at 100% power:

OFN BB-007, RCS LEAKAGE HIGH, was entered based on PZR level lowering

'B' CCP is running BG FK-121, CCP DISCH FLOW CTRL, is in manual with 100% output demand ALL letdown orifice isolation valves are CLOSED PZR level is 48% and down at 1% per minute RCS pressure is stable at 2231 psig As the crew performs the appropriate actions which of the following describes the injection path for the CCPs FIVE minutes later?

A. Both CCPs are injecting into ALL four cold legs in ECCS mode B. 'A' CCP is injecting into loop 1 & 2 cold legs in ECCS mode ONLY

'B' CCP is injecting into loop 3 & 4 cold legs in ECCS mode ONLY C. 'A' CCP is secured

'B' CCP is injecting into the loop 1 cold leg in charging mode D. Both CCPs are injecting into the loop 1 cold leg in charging mode Answer: A Answer Explanation:

Correct - OFN BB-007 foldout page states that if charging is maximized from one pump with letdown isolated and PZR level lowering then trip the Rx and actuate SI (ECCS mode injection). Five minutes later that crew will have performed this and still be in EMG E-0 working through it. The CCPs will be both running, due to the SI, and injecting through the BIT header which is both pumps discharge coming together and flowing to all four cold legs in the ECCS mode.

Incorrect - A CCP secured and B injecting. OFN BB-007 will have the crew actuate SI and this will realign the pumps to ECCS injection mode. Plausible if the student forgets the OFN foldout page criteria for SI and thinks that the crew will continue to work through the OFN since PZR level is lowering very slow.

Incorrect - Both pumps injecting in charging mode. Both pumps will be running due to the SI but will not be using the normal charging flowpath. Plausible if the student remembers the SI off of foldout page but confuses where the injection for the CCPs is for the ECCS mode vs normal charging mode.

Incorrect - A CCP injecting into 1 and 2 B CCP injecting into 3 and 4. The SI realign both pumps to be running but not to the loops given. They will both be injecting to all loops. Plausible if the student confuses the RCS tap points for the CCPs between the normal charging and ECCS mode.

57 ID: 98372 Points: 1.00 The plant is operating at 100% when the upper selected PZR level channel fails to 0%.

Which of the following is an expected plant response to this failure AND why?

(assume NO operator action)

A. Actual PZR level lowers due to charging flow lowering.

B. PZR spray valves will open due to actual PZR pressure rising.

C. ALR 033E, PZR HTR GROUP LOCKOUT, will alarm due to heaters being tripped off.

D. PZR backup heaters will energize due to actual PZR level being greater than 5% above program.

Answer: B Answer Explanation:

M-744-0028 Correct - With this failure letdown isolates and charging goes to max so no water out and more water in will raise pressure in the PZR. Heaters are off due to letdown isolation at 17% (failed channel low) so this is not adding to the pressure rise. Sprays open to lower pressure but will not lower pressure back to 2235 psig.

Incorrect - ALR 033E. This alarm will come in if any PZR heater breaker is tripped open. Since the failed channel failed low the breakers are not tripped but locked out from coming on. Plausible if student confuses how the PZR heaters operate under these conditions.

Incorrect - PZR backup heaters energize. These heaters are controlled by the upper selected channel so when it fails low they backup heaters are lock out from coming on. Plausible since actual level will rise and be greater than 5% above program which should have turned them on baring the failure.

Incorrect - PZR level lowers. This would happen if the level channel had failed HI. Plausible if the student confuses the different failure modes, when letdown isolates then charging should lower to keep from over filling the PZR.

Q58, Rev 1 ID: 98373 Points: 1.00 The plant is operating at 100% power when the following takes place:

  • 'B' train reactor trip breaker is open With NO operator action what affect (if any) will this failure have on the operation of the steam dump system?

A. Steam dumps will ARM and RCS temperature will go to 557°F.

B. Steam dumps will ARM and RCS temperature will go to 559°F.

C. Steam dumps will NOT ARM and RCS temperature will go to 557°F.

D. Steam dumps will NOT ARM and RCS temperature will go to 561°F.

Answer: A Answer Explanation:

Correct - The A train reactor trip breaker controls steam dump arming but arming is also controlled by loss of load from C-7 so steam dumps are armed. B train reactor trip breaker controls which controller the steam dumps work off of. With this breaker open the steam dumps will be controlled by the plant trip controller.

Incorrect - armed and 559F. Plausible if the student confuses which reactor trip breaker does what. This statement is if they reversed the correct breaker inputs.

Incorrect - not armed and 557F. Plausible since the A train reactor trip breaker still being closed means no arming from it but C-7 does arm the steam dumps. Since the B train breaker opened the plant trip controller is controlling the temperature at 557F.

Incorrect - not armed and 561F. Plausible since the A train reactor trip breaker still being closed means no arming from it but C-7 does arm the steam dumps. But if the student doesn't think the steam dumps are armed then he would think the temperature is being controlled by the ARVs which are set at 561F Meets KA asks if student can monitor the auto selection of NNIS inputs with regards to steam dump controller used during a reactor trip with a failure RO knowledge basic system design and interlocks OPS INITIAL NRC Page: 1 of 2 14 October 2015

Q59, Rev 1 ID: 98374 Points: 1.00 The unit has experienced an earthquake, loss of Off Site power, and a LOCA. The crew has transitioned to EMG E-1, LOSS OF REACTOR OR SECONDARY COOLANT. The following indications are noted:

  • RCS pressure 1790 psig
  • CETC temperature 1210 °F
  • 'A' CCP OOS due to planned maintenance
  • 'B' CCP Breaker tripped and will NOT reset
  • Total AFW flow 150,000 lbm/hr stable
  • All S/G NR levels 2% thru 8%

Based on the indications given the crew will...

A. transition to EMG FR-C1, RESPONSE TO INADEQUATE CORE COOLING B. transition to EMG FR-C2, RESPONSE TO DEGRADED CORE COOLING C. transition to EMG FR-H1, RESPONSE TO LOSS OF SECONDARY HEAT SINK D. continue with EMG E-1, LOSS OF REACTOR OR SECONDARY COOLANT Answer: A Answer Explanation:

With a loss of offsite power RCP's are off. Subcooling for the 1790 psig is around 621°F and with CETC at 1150°F subcooling is not met. Also with the power loss the NCP is unavailable.

FR procedures are monitored after the transition out of E-0 is made.

Correct - Based on CETCs over 1200F the entry condition has been made for red path to C1.

Incorrect - FR-C2 orange. Plausible if the student fails to use the 1200F as a entry condition and moves on down the F-0 to the orange path for C2 based on RCPs stopped, RVLIS, and CETC.

Incorrect - FR-H1 red path. AFW flow is lower than the 270,000 lbm/hr requirement but since SG levels are above 6% NR this can be lowered. Plausible if the student mistakes the low flow with a requirement from F-0 to go here.

Incorrect - E-1. RCS pressure is used in multiple locations throughout this procedure to determine if ECCS flow should be reduced and with pressure staying high this is a concern with RHR pumps. Plausible if the student mistakes high RCS pressure with the need to secure RHR pumps and reduce ECCS flow over the red path entry.

Q60, Rev 1 ID: 98375 Points: 1.00 The unit is operating at 100% power at end of life when the following takes place:

  • RO reports SFP level is -25" and lowering rapidly
  • Aux Building operator confirms RO report using the local level indicator
  • The leak location is currently UNKNOWN Which of the following areas is required to be evacuated AND what makeup source is preferred?

A. Fuel Building Area ONLY, RWST B. Fuel Building Area ONLY, RMWST (water only)

C. Fuel Building Area AND the Aux Building, RWST D. Fuel Building Area AND the Aux Building, RMWST (water only)

Answer: A Answer Explanation:

Correct - Foldout page of the OFN directs to Attachment A which evacuates the fuel building and makeup is from a borated water source first.

Incorrect - fuel building and makeup from RMWST. The first part is correct but makeup will be from a borated water source before an unborated sources is used and since the stem says nothing about an issue with the RWST it will be used. Plausible if the student forgets what type of water to use to fill the pool.

Incorrect - fuel and aux building makeup from RWST. Makeup source is correct but the procedure only has the fuel building evacuated. Foldout page items are required knowledge for RO's. Plausible if the student thinks the two buildings have the same ventilation system.

Incorrect - fuel and aux building makeup from RMWST. Procedure only has the fuel building evacuated. Makeup will be from a borated source first. Plausible if the student confuses the ventilation systems or where makeup will come from first.

Meets KA asks ability to use procedures to correct low SFP level issues.

RO knowledge this is foldout page item and the makeup is system understanding of which source is the correct one for the SFP.

A. Restricts flow of steam to the Main Turbine.

B. Provides a measuring point for steam flow rate.

C. Provides for the upper tap of the S/G WR level detector.

D. Provides a tap for the Main Steam Header pressure detector.

Answer: B Answer Explanation:

Correct - One of the purposes of the flow restrictor.

Incorrect - provides tap for steam pressure. Plausible since this does supply a point for the steam flow which uses pressure to density compensation.

Incorrect - restricts flow to main turbine. While it does provide a flow restriction on a steam line break (SG pressure to atmosphere) it doesn't restrict flow to the main turbine. The flow rate to the main turbine is lower than the flow would be on a steam line break. Plausible if the student confuses what flow is being restricted.

Incorrect - provides tap for SG WR level. Since there is a tap for steam flow here it is plausible that the upper tap for SG level could be at this same location.

64 ID: 98379 Points: 1.00 The operators are raising power from 35% to full power. Current RCS boron concentration is 630 ppm.

Which of the following will be used to control reactivity during the power increase?

A. Use control rods to maintain I on the 100% power target.

B. Allow rods to move automatically to follow turbine load without diluting.

C. Use rods and normal dilution to maintain I and Tavg / Tref within band.

D. Maintain the control rods at the 'parked position' and use normal dilution to change power.

Answer: C Answer Explanation:

Correct - since a combination of rods and dilution will raise power, delta flux has to be within limits above 50% power per TS 3.2.3 and QPTR is valid at or above 50% TS 3.2.4.

Incorrect - Use control rods to maintain delta-I on 100% power target. Axial Offset (AO) is maintained as close to 100% value as possible, however, delta-I can be far from the 100% target since rods start out at a very low position causing delta-I to be much more negative than AO. Plausible if the student misunderstands the relationship between rods and boron as power changes.

Incorrect - Maintain the control rods at the 'parked position' and use normal makeup to change power. If power were higher to start with this could be true but with power crossing the 50% value rods must be moved to maintain delta-I.

Plausible if the student doesn't recognize the power change encompasses TS items.

Incorrect - Allow rods to move automatically to follow turbine load without diluting.

If power were to be lowered this would be correct rods are used in auto to help follow the turbine. Also rods will reach their full out position prior to the unit reaching full power so dilution will be required. Plausible if the student mistakes raising and lowering power rod control or misunderstands that rods will be full out prior to full power.

If a Red or Orange path ERG is entered, any continuous action steps from the previous procedures should not be performed. Entry into a Red or Orange path ERG indicates that plant conditions have severely degraded and the strategy of the suspended procedures is not effective.

Correct - since a C-1 is a red path procedure any continuous actions prior to entry are no longer performed.

Incorrect - remain applicable until superseded by directed actions of EMG FR-C1. Plausible if the student misunderstands the requirement for continuous action steps in FRs.

Incorrect - are NOT applicable upon transitioning from EMG E-1. Plausible if the student confuses the transition to FRs and other EMGs since normally they do apply.

B. 'A' S/G NR level is 77%

C. RCS pressure is 2185 psig D. 'B' RCP Frame vibration is 8 mils Answer: D Answer Explanation:

AP 21-001, CONDUCT OF OPERATIONS, if any trip setpoint has been reached and no auto reactor trip has worked after you verify the validity of the alarm then the reactor must be placed in a safe condition.

Correct - The RCP has exceeded the rapid shutdown criteria for the pump which will require a manual reactor trip and a stop of the affected RCP.

Incorrect - PZR level. PZR level has not exceeded the auto trip setpoint.

Plausible if the student confuses the trip setpoint with action contained in OFNs for this condition.

Incorrect - RCS pressure is low. RCS pressure has not lowered enough to cause an auto reactor trip and one is not warranted at this point. Plausible if the student thinks they should try and 'beat' the reactor trip before any setpoint is reached.

Incorrect - SG MFRV. At 77% SG level a FWIS has not been generated.

Plausible if the student confuses the trip setpoint with action contained in OFNs for this condition.

A. Changing rod position for rod parking.

B. Tripping of the main turbine during an ATWS event.

C. Hanging a clearance order tag in a High Radiation area.

D. Placing a MFRV in manual after a S/G controlling level fails.

Answer: A Answer Explanation:

Correct - This is required since rod parking is a planned event that will change reactivity.

Incorrect - tripping the main turbine during an ATWS. This is one of the first steps in EMG E-0 which peer checks are suspended for so it will not slow down the mitigation strategy. Plausible is the student thinks of this as a reactivity change and peer checks are required for it except during EMGs Incorrect - placing the main feed reg valve in manual. During OFNs peer checks are suspended until the plant is stable. Plausible if the student confuses this with EMG guidance.

Incorrect - hanging a clearance order tag in a high rad area. Plausible since the procedure directs this as a shall except in a high rad area.

Power Stable RCS pressure Down fast SI occurs Tave Stable PZR level Down fast Containment pressure Up slow Containment humidity Up slow S/G pressure Stable Using the attached reference, based on the given information on what tree will the classification be made on AND why?

A. EAL-4, MAIN STEAM LINE BREAK based on SI actuated ONLY.

B. EAL-3, LOSS OF REACTOR COOLANT BOUNDARY based on SI actuated ONLY.

C. EAL-4, MAIN STEAM LINE BREAK based on Containment pressure and humidity AND SI actuated.

D. EAL-3, LOSS OF REACTOR COOLANT BOUNDARY based on apparent RCS leakage AND SI actuated.

Answer: D Answer Explanation:

Correct - EAL-3, 1,2,3,5,6,7 Alert. A LOCA pressure and level will lower fast. A steam break removes more heat from the coolant and steals some from the main turbine. The extra steam flow also raises reactor power. In this case power is constant and pressure is lowering so this is a LOCA Incorrect - EAL-4, SI actuated ONLY. A steam break will cause an SI but with power and Tave stable this is not the case here. Plausible if the student misdiagnoses this event.

Incorrect - EAL-3, SI actuated ONLY. A steam break will cause an SI based on the cooldown alone. Plausible if the student misdiagnoses this event.

Incorrect - EAL-4, Containment pressure and humidity AND SI actuated. Steam break will lower RCS pressure but it also lowers Tave. Plausible if the student misdiagnoses this event.

Correct - OFN EJ-015. This procedure contains action that will protect the RHR pumps and establish containment closure. This procedure is the highest priority based on conditions given even though other entry conditions are met for other procedures they will not correct the issue.

Incorrect - OFN BB-031. Plausible if the student confuses the loss of CCW (thermal barrier cooling) with loss of seal injection which would lead to a LOCA through the seals. Also this procedure can only be entered if the plant is in mode 3 after accumulators are isolated or mode 4.

Incorrect - OFN EG-004. Plausible if the student thinks the loss of CCW is higher priority than the loss of RHR. This procedure will not correct the loss of RHR.

Incorrect - OFN EC-046. Plausible if the student understands that the loss of CCW will lead to a loss of fuel pool cooling and thinks this is higher priority than loss of RHR.

  • The crew stabilized the plant
  • NN03 is now energized from NN15 on the bypass transformer via the static switch Based on the information given:

2. OPERABLE D. 1. OFN NK-020, LOSS OF VITAL 125 VDC BUS NK01, NK02, NK03 AND NK04
2. OPERABLE Answer: A Answer Explanation:

We have new instrument inverters. The swing inverters can be powered from an NK (DC) source or NG (AC) source and per TS any inverter suppling an NN bus must be powered from an NK source.

Correct - Since the statement in the stem for the power source to NN15 (bypass transformer) which is NG01, this is not considered an operable line up for the instrument buses in this mode Incorrect - OFN NK-020, inoperable. This procedure is plausible since it does cover issues dealing with the NK, safeguards batteries. The stem states that a loss of power from the NK source happened so the NN was lost due to the loss of the NK. The OFN NK only deals with actual battery issues not the fuse disconnects on the busses. The inoperable part is correct.

Incorrect - OFN NN-021, operable. Correct procedure. NN15 on the bypass transformer is not operable as the power supply currently is NG01 and not an NK source per TS.

Plausible if the student is not familiar with the power supplies to the swing NN inverters and thinks this lineup is OK per TS.

Incorrect - OFN NK-020, operable.This procedure is plausible since it does cover issues dealing with the NK, safeguards batteries. The stem states that a loss of power from the NK source happened so the NN was lost due to the loss of the NK. The OFN NK only deals with actual battery issues not the fuse disconnects on the busses. Also the stem states NN15 is powered from the bypass transformer. Plausible if the student is not familiar with the power supplies to the swing NN inverters and thinks this lineup is OK per TS.

  • Alarm 064C, RCS WR PRESS HI, is in
  • Alarm 033B, PZR HI PRESS DEV is in
  • Alarm 035B, PORV OPEN, is in What event is in progress AND what procedure actions will the crew take?

A. Select away from all RED train channels B. Place excess letdown in service C. Select alternate PZR level channel for control D. Place PZR master pressure controller in manual and control pressure Answer: B Answer Explanation:

If the line downstream of KA HIS-29 which is the instrument air supply line to all of containment fails then a loss of air to containment will happen. Every air operated valve in containment will go to is failure position over time. RCS pressure will rise because all letdown is isolated and PZR sprays fail closed so PZR level will be rising and when level is 5% over program the backup heaters will turn on due to a possible insurge into the PZR.

This will cause pressure to rise to the PORV setpoint and they will open to control pressure.

Correct - Loss of air to containment so place excess letdown in service. This procedure has steps to place excess letdown in service and control seal injection control PZR level.

Incorrect - PZR level channel failure select alternate level channel for control. Plausible as the student could interpret the indications given as a level channel failure which the procedure would direct the crew to select away from the failed channel.

Incorrect - PZR pressure channel failure place master controller in manual and control pressure. Plausible as the student could interpret the indications given as a pressure channel failure and the procedure would direct the crew to take manual control of the master PZR pressure controller and control pressure.

Incorrect - Loss of NN bus select away from all red train channels. Plausible as the student could interpret the indications given as a loss of the red train instrument bus and the procedure would direct the crew to select away from all red train equipment.

81 ID: 98396 Points: 1.00 The switchyard is split East and West due to grid instability which has been reported to Wolf Creek by the TSO. As the grid instability continues to get worse indicated voltage on NB01 is now 3740 and down slow.

If the above indications continue for the next 2 minutes which of the following statements is correct with regards to NE01 AND offsite circuit operability?

A. NE01 is carrying NB01 All offsite circuits are OPERABLE B. NE01 is carrying NB01 One offsite circuit is INOPERABLE C. NE01 is in STBY All offsite circuits are OPERABLE D. NE01 is in STBY One offsite circuit is INOPERABLE Answer: B Answer Explanation:

With the east and west buses split NB01 is being powered from the east bus and NB02 is being supplied by the west (startup transformer). NB01 is a 4160 V bus and 90% of that is 3744 V so anything less than that will start the degraded voltage timers to start counting down and after a total of 119 seconds will trip both the normal and alternate feeder breakers to NB01 in this case. This starts NE01 and it closes onto the bus. This doesn't make NE01 inoperable since it is performing its safety function. The offsite circuit is inoperable since the voltage supplied to the site is now too low per TS 3.8.1 and bases.

Correct - When less than 3744 V is reached the 119 second timer starts and NE01 will then start on NB01 undervoltage and take the bus. The offsite circuit is inoperable because it can't carry the NB bus. The diesel is operable because it is performing its safety function.

Incorrect - NE01 running and offsite operable. The first part is correct. The offsite circuit is not operable since it indicates low voltage by NE01 starting on degraded voltage. Plausible if the student doesn't understand the switchyard and NB01 relationship with operability.

Incorrect - NE01 in STBY offsite inoperable. The diesel is running at this point on undervoltage on NB01 due to the degraded voltage signal opening the normal and alternate feeder breakers. Plausible if the student forgets the 90% degraded voltage setpoint or time relay.

Incorrect - NE01 in STBY and offsite operable. The diesel is running at this point on undervoltage on NB01 due to the degraded voltage signal opening the normal and alternate feeder breakers. The offsite circuit is not operable since it indicates low voltage by NE01 starting on degraded voltage. Plausible if the student doesn't understand the switchyard to NB01 relationship with operability and forgets the 90% degraded voltage setpoint or time relay.

SE NI-31B is INOPERABLE Open reactor trip breakers IMMEDIATELY D. SE NI-32B is INOPERABLE Open reactor trip breakers IMMEDIATELY Answer: B Answer Explanation:

Correct - Per TS 3.3.1 table 2 SR NI are required in mode 3, 4, or 5. With one inoperable then action must be taken to restore both to operable status within 48 hours5.555556e-4 days <br />0.0133 hours <br />7.936508e-5 weeks <br />1.8264e-5 months <br /> OR rods must be inserted and reactor trip breakers opened within 49 hours5.671296e-4 days <br />0.0136 hours <br />8.101852e-5 weeks <br />1.86445e-5 months <br />.

Plausible if the student forgets that these status lights on the ESFAS panels will come on to show isolation was successful. Also closing the mini purge valve doesn't bring in this white header it brings in the CPIS header Incorrect - GE and Header for CTMT ISO SYS PHASE A, lit solid white. The classification is wrong but if the student doesn't follow the correct path from box 7 to 5 then 8 and just goes to 5 this will get a GE. Plausible if the student forgets that these status lights on the ESFAS panels will come on to show isolation was successful or gets on the wrong path in the trees.

B. EMG E-3, STEAM GENERATOR TUBE RUPTURE.

C. EMG E-2, FAULTED STEAM GENERATOR ISOLATION.

D. EMG E-1, LOSS OF REACTOR OR SECONDARY COOLANT.

Answer: D Answer Explanation:

The parameters given were taken from the desktop simulator for a large PZR steam space leak. The general nature of what is given is all that is needed in ES-01 to make decisions as to where to transition to so no specific values are given.

Correct - Since E-0 must have been exited prior to coming to ES-01 the first transition out is not used. E-1 is correct since PZR level is rising and no faulted SG was found. This is the last transition out of ES-01 in the RNO column Incorrect - E-3. With levels rising in all SGs this could be thought of as a rupture.

This is from the normal AFW flow that will actuate on the reactor trip and subsequent shrink of the SGs. Plausible if the student doesn't understand all the auto actuation that will take place on the trip.

Incorrect - C-0. With a loss of one emergency bus and having and OFN and an EMG for loss of power this transition could be made. Plausible if the student fails to see that only one bus is locked out and it only takes one bus to complete mitigation actions in EMG procedures.

(use the attached indications for decision basis)

A. EMG FR-Z1, RESPONSE TO HIGH CONTAINMENT PRESSURE, Red path.

Based on containment pressure.

B. EMG FR-Z1, RESPONSE TO HIGH CONTAINMENT PRESSURE, Orange path.

Based on only one containment spray pump running.

C. EMG FR-Z2, RESPONSE TO CONTAINMENT FLOODING, Orange path.

Based on containment sump level.

D. EMG FR-Z3, RESPONSE TO HIGH CONTAINMENT RADIATION LEVEL, Yellow path.

Based on containment rad levels.

Answer: C Answer Explanation:

Correct - With containment adverse and the sump level high this is the correct procedure to enter. There is only ONE procedure at Wolf Creek that deals with containment flooding and it is an orange path FR-Z2.

This procedure contains 4 steps and one is return to procedure step in effect. Indications given for this question make the student determine the status of the containment spray pumps and the fact that the CS pumps were started by the LOCA sequencer and not by the crew. This interpretation is needed to justify distractors. Then the student must determine that containment is adverse to get to the correct procedure entry.

Incorrect - FR-Z3 yellow. Conditions are met to enter this procedure on a yellow path but since the orange FR-Z2 is met procedure use and adherence has the higher level procedure enter first. Plausible since this is a correct entry but not with the orange path also met.

Incorrect - FR-Z1 red. Plausible since containment pressure is well above normal but the red path entry would be over 60 psig.

Incorrect - FR-Z1 orange. Plausible since there is one spray pump not running but this entry would be based on two spray pumps stopped or 'as least one running' per procedure.

A. Charging header pressure 2350 psig RCS pressure 2235 psig 9.5 gpm Limit the MAXIMUM flow to the seal to prevent premature seal failure.

B. Charging header pressure 2550 psig RCS pressure 2235 psig 13.8 gpm Limit the MAXIMUM flow to the seal to prevent premature seal failure.

C. Charging header pressure 2550 psig RCS pressure 2235 psig 13.8 gpm Limit the amount of flow that is diverted from the normal injection path in accident conditions.

D. Charging header pressure 2350 psig RCS pressure 2235 psig 9.5 gpm Limit the amount of flow that is diverted from the normal injection path in accident conditions.

Answer: C Answer Explanation:

Correct - The DP here is 315 and the seal injection flow given is within the acceptable region of the provided graph. The reason is out of the basis which is to limit flow diverted away from the injection.

Incorrect - 13.8 gpm, limit seal water flow. The flow number is correct. The reason is not per the TS basis flow diverted away from the normal injection path is the concern. The spec does discuss the flow to the seals to prevent damage but this is not a limit on max flow to the seal but min flow to the seal to prevent failure. Plausible if the student can use the graph but mistakes the reason.

Incorrect - 9.5 gpm, limit amount NOT going to injection. The DP here is 115 so the max would be close to 8.5 gpm. The reason is correct. Plausible if the student mis-uses the graph and understands the basis.

2. EMG C-11, LOSS OF EMERGENCY COOLANT RECIRCULATION D. 1. Both spray pumps are running
2. EMG C-11, LOSS OF EMERGENCY COOLANT RECIRCULATION Answer: A Answer Explanation:

Correct - ES-12 has no step to stop containment spray pumps with RWST level greater than 6% (foldout page). It does have the spray pumps aligned to the sump if RWST level is less than 12%. C-13 will be entered based on RHR pump flow.

Incorrect - ES-13 and stopped. ES-12 has no step to stop containment spray pumps with RWST level greater than 6%. It does have the spray pumps aligned to the sump if RWST level is less than 12%. Plausible if the student uses foldout page of ES-12 to stop pumps.

Incorrect - C-11 and running. The running is correct while in ES-12 but a transition to C-11 would only be made if the valves to RHR could not be placed in the correct alignment.

Plausible if the student sees this as a valve problem and not a loss of suction due to blockage.

Incorrect - C-11 and stopped. ES-12 has no step to stop spray pumps with RWST level greater than 6%. Plausible if the student sees this as a valve problem and not a loss of suction due to blockage.

2) EMG E-2, FAULTED STEAM GENERATOR ISOLATION
3) 'C' S/G steam flow will be isolated AND ECCS flow WILL NOT be reduced Answer: D Rev 0

Answer Explanation:

All data was gathered from running this on the desk top simulator with AFW flow throttled at event initiation, a full feedline break inside containment, and no other operator actions. This would be consistent with working through E-0 since all actions up to diagnostics have no effect on the parameters used here.

Correct - Per E-0 C SG is faulted at step 16 a transition is made to E-2. The diagnosis key is early steam flow from all but C SG and C SG WR level being lower than all the rest with no indicated steam flow which points at the feed line break. At first a feed line break will look like a steam break until the feed ring is uncovered and then the SG pressure will drop rapidly and then the diagnosis can be made. E-2 will isolate all the flow from and feed to the SG. At the end of E-2 the operator is asked if ECCS flow should be reduced based on indications.

Since the RCS pressure is still lowering a transition is made to E-1 and when the SG blows dry and the pressure stabilizes out then ECCS flow can be reduced.

This is the last step of E-2.

Incorrect - steam line break, E-1, AFW iso. The steam line break in containment would drop SG pressure immediately. E-1 would not be the correct procedure entry if there was a main steam line break in containment. AFW will be isolated in E-0. Plausible if the student misdiagnosis this event.

Incorrect - feed line break, E-1, SG C iso. Correct diagnosis but E-1 is not the correct transition. Also ECCS flow will not be reduced since RCS pressure is still lowering. Plausible if the student misdiagnosis the event.

Incorrect - steam line break, E-2, AFW iso. The steam line break in containment would drop SG pressure immediately. E-2 is the correct procedure. AFW will be isolated in E-0 not E-2, only the steam flow from the C SG to the TDAFWP.

Plausible if the student misdiagnosis the event.

Meets KA asks for ability to predict the impact of a main feed line break inside containment and then select the correct procedure to mitigate the event and control the consequences.

SRO knowledge since it asks for specific procedure step actions i.e. not reducing ECCS flow.

90 ID: 98405 Points: 1.00 Given the following:

The crew is performing STS KJ-005A, MANUAL/AUTO START, SYNC AND LOADING OF EDG NE01 The RO is ready to close the output breaker for NE01 in order to parallel it with NB01 (off site)

NB01 voltage is indicating 4160 VAC and frequency is indication 60.1 Hz NE01 voltage is indicating 4080 VAC and frequency is indicating 60.3 Hz What action is required to complete the paralleling operation of NE01 to NB01?

Under these conditions, a copy of which procedure is required to be kept with the RO and NSO to keep NE01 OPERABLE during this surveillance run?

A. 1. Lower NE01 frequency.

2. OFN NB-042, LOSS OF OFFSITE POWER TO NB01(NB02) WITH EDG PARALLELED.

B. 1. Lower NE01 frequency.

2. SYS KJ-123, POST MAINTENANCE RUN OF EMERGENCY DIESEL GENERATOR 'A'.

C. 1. Raise NE01 voltage.

2. SYS KJ-123, POST MAINTENANCE RUN OF EMERGENCY DIESEL GENERATOR 'A'.

D. 1. Raise NE01 voltage.

2. OFN NB-042, LOSS OF OFFSITE POWER TO NB01(NB02) WITH EDG PARALLELED.

Answer: D Answer Explanation:

Correct - Per SYS KJ-123 the incoming voltage needs to be within +/- 50 volts to parallel the diesel. STS KJ-005A 4.11.1 states that if individuals and a copy of OFN NB-042 are present during the test the EDG remains operable.

Incorrect - raise voltage copy of SYS. The SYS is only the test procedure after maintenance and the OFN is required at the location and in the control room for the EDG to remain operable. Plausible if the student mistakes the contents of the SYS with the requirement to have the OFN.

Incorrect - lower frequency copy of OFN. Plausible if the student confuses the starting parameter requirements for the EDG. The OFN is correct to have at the locations.

Incorrect - lower frequency copy of SYS. Plausible if the student confuses the starting parameter requirements for the EDG. Also the SYS is only the test procedure after maintenance and the OFN is required at the location and in the control room for the EDG to remain operable. Plausible if the student mistakes the contents of the SYS with the requirement to have the OFN.

A. OPERABLE, +10/-4 B. OPERABLE, -10/+4 C. INOPERABLE, +10/-4 D. INOPERABLE, -10/+4 Answer: A Answer Explanation:

Correct - With the loss of only one power supply per TS the DRPI system goes to half accuracy which is still within the +/- 12 steps the TS asks for. The DRPI system remains operable.

Incorrect - OPERABLE -10/+4. Correct TS call. The accuracy is +10/-4 (opposite common mistake). Plausible if the student confuses the accuracy but knows the TS.

Incorrect - INOPERABLE +10/-4. Accuracy is correct and with a power failure of one DRPI then the panel will show alarms and lights. Plausible if the student knows the accuracy for the power failure but applies TS wrong (common misconception) for only having one power supply available.

Incorrect - INOPERABLE -10/+4. Common misconception for accuracy.

A. OFN RP-013, CONTROL ROOM NOT HABITABLE Alert B. OFN RP-017, CONTROL ROOM EVACUATION Site Area Emergency C. OFN RP-017, CONTROL ROOM EVACUATION Alert D. OFN RP-013, CONTROL ROOM NOT HABITABLE Site Area Emergency Answer: B Answer Explanation:

Correct - OFN RP-017 is the only procedure that will mitigate this event since this is a fire in the control room. Since the notes for the procedure and the emergency plant state that the isolate switches must be in iso within 15 minutes and the time line shows more than that the SAE is called.

Incorrect - OFN RP-017 and Alert. Correct procedure but since the switches were not placed correctly within 15 minutes the alert is to low. Plausible if the student fails to see the time the switches were moved and just classifies off the notes and the control room evacuation Incorrect - OFN RP-013 and SAE. This procedure will be entered if the control room is evacuated for reasons OTHER than fire so this procedure will not mitigate this event. SAE is correct. Plausible if the student knows the correct classification but misses that a fire has occurred.

Incorrect - OFN RP-013 and Alert. This procedure will be entered if the control room is evacuated for reasons OTHER than fire so this procedure will not mitigate this event. Since the switches were not placed correctly within 15 minutes the alert is too low. Plausible if the student misses the fire and the switches.

Meets KA assumes failure of auto fire protection system and then asks for a procedure to mitigate consequences of this failure.

SRO knowledge asks for classification if control room switches are not isolated within the 15 minute clock.

93 ID: 98408 Points: 1.00 The plant is in a refueling outage with the following:

Core off load is in progress with just over half of the assemblies remaining in the vessel The Upender is moving to the vertical position on the Refuel Pool side A fuel assembly is on the hoist and has just been withdrawn from the core Refuel Pool level suddenly begins to lower rapidly The Control Room reports that the 'A' S/G Nozzle Dam has failed Which of the following actions will the Fuel Handling SRO will direct?

A. Lower the fuel assembly into the vessel Send the Fuel Transfer Cart to the SFP B. Place the fuel assembly in the Upender Send the Fuel Transfer Cart to the SFP C. Lower the fuel assembly into the vessel Leave the Fuel Transfer Cart in the Refueling Pool D. Place the fuel assembly in the Upender Leave the Fuel Transfer Cart in the Refueling Pool Answer: A Answer Explanation:

Fuel handling is an SRO only function at Wolf Creek.

Correct - Per the OFN KE-018, FUEL HANDLING ACCIDENT, there are multiple actions the fuel handling SRO will perform. This list is all correct for what is required to completed. The fuel transfer cart must be on the SFP side or the fuel transfer gate valve cannot be closed. The fuel assembly is placed back in the only safe location on the refuel pool side. The transfer tube gate is closed to prevent losing SFP level. The equipment hatch is closed to regain containment integrity for this event.

Incorrect - Place the fuel assembly in the upender, send the cart to the SFP.

Plausible if the student does not understand the safe locations to place the fuel assembly, the rest is correct.

Incorrect - Leave the cart in the refuel pool, ensure the gate is closed. Plausible if the student does not understand that the cart has a cable connected to it that goes back to the SFP side stopping the gate valve from being closed.

Incorrect - leave the cart in the refuel pool, place the fuel assembly in the upender. Plausible if the student does not understand the safe locations to place the fuel assembly or where to put the transfer cart.

Rev 0

Meets KA asks if the student understands how the refueling process goes as far as sequence of events (if the fuel element is on the hoist and just been raised it is still over the vessel, upender is just coming to the upright position must understand where it was and were it is going to know what is next). Knowing what to do in this case is based on the prediction that level will drop far enough to force the action specified so that design limits for fuel cooling and radiation shielding are not exceeded.

SRO knowledge asks for procedure step recall. The actions taken are performed by the refuel SRO inside containment (as directed by the CRS).

95 ID: 98410 Points: 1.00 Given the following with the plant shutdown and in a refueling outage:

Core offload is in progress A single head stud was left in the vessel flange (stuck)

The area was programed into the PLC of the Refueling Machine A need has arose which will require operating the Refueling Machine in Bypass mode Based on the conditions given can the Bypass operation be allowed?

Why and or how?

A. 1. NO

2. Bypass operation is NOT allowed with fuel in the vessel.

B. 1. YES

2. The Manipulator Crane will still prevent movement in the affected area.

C. 1. NO

2. The Manipulator Crane will NOT prevent movement inside of the affected area.

D. 1. YES

2. The SRO and crane operator can maintain heightened awareness around the stud area.

Answer: D Answer Explanation:

Correct - per FHP 03-001 the refuel machine may be used in bypass mode as long as the SRO and the crane operator maintain heightened awareness around the area.

Incorrect - NO, the Manipulator Crane will not prevent hitting the stud. Plausible as the reason is correct the PLC will not prevent the crane from hitting the stud in bypass mode but this operation is allowed by FHP procedure.

Incorrect - NO, bypass operation is not allowed with fuel in the vessel. Plausible as bypass operation will allow the crane to move in areas it normally would not and with fuel in the vessel this is a conservative choice.

Incorrect - YES, the Manipulator Crane will still maintain the area of the stud off limits. Plausible if the student does not understand the bypass operation of the refuel machine.

Q99, Rev 1 ID: 98414 Points: 1.00 The crew is recovering from a reactor trip that occurred 5 minutes ago due to an I&C technician inadvertently manipulating incorrect switches in the back of the Control Room. The following indications are noted:

  • RCS pressure 2235 psig stable
  • RCS temperature 555°F lowering at 2°F per minute (reason unknown)
  • RCS T ~1 to 2 °F
  • PZR level 26% stable
  • AFW flow 100,000 lbm/hr - throttled per fold out page
  • MSIVs Closed Assuming the above conditions do NOT change over the next 35 minutes which of the following actions will be taken?

A. Direct an SI and transition to EMG E-0, REACTOR TRIP OR SAFETY INJECTION.

B. Transition to EMG FR H-1, RESPONSE TO LOSS OF SECONDARY HEAT SINK.

C. Transition to OFN BG-009, EMERGENCY BORATION, then return to EMG ES-02 step in effect.

D. Direct the RO to perform OFN BG-009, EMERGENCY BORATION, while the CRS and the BOP continue with EMG ES-02.

Answer: D Answer Explanation:

SRO because to answer you have to know the procedure content (steps) to understand that the emergency boration will take place concurrently with the EMG in effect. Comes from AP 15C-003 Correct - Per step 2, continuous action step, if temperature lowers to less than 530°F and no SI (that is why we are in ES-01) then borate so you don't lose SDM. This is how OFN's and EMG's are performed together.

Incorrect - transition to OFN BG-009. This procedure is needed due to the cooldown but ES-02 directs in step 2 RNO that both procedures are to be completed concurrently.

Plausible if the student doesn't know about the temperature requirement AND the use of concurrent OFN and EMG.

Incorrect - direct an SI and transition to E-0. With temperature lowering a jump in logic could be made that will also lower pressure and PZR level which would require an SI. No other items are broke so PZR heaters will maintain pressure and charging will maintain level. Plausible if the student assumes other things are broke outside of what the stem states.

Incorrect - transition to FR H-1. With AFW flow less than 270,000 lbm/hr an assumption could be made that more flow is needed but since flow was throttled per fold out page then SG levels, at least one, must be over 6% NR. Plausible if the student doesn't understand why AFW flow was throttled.

100 ID: 98415 Points: 1.00 The unit is operating at 100% power when a RED first out for OTT comes in.

The alarm is verified correct but the reactor does NOT trip.

The CRS directs entry into EMG FR-S1, RESPONSE TO NUCLEAR POWER GENERATION / ATWS.

The crew performs their immediate actions.

The crew is now verifying the reactor and turbine trip when an SI occurs.

Which of the following statements is correct with regards to what action(s) the CRS will direct next AND what is the basis for this action?

A. Direct the RO to return to EMG E-0, REACTOR TRIP OR SAFETY INJECTION, and perform steps 1-7, while the BOP and the CRS continue with EMG FR-S1.

This is to verify the emergency borate flow remains above 30 gpm until SDM is determined.

B. Direct the RO to return to EMG E-0, REACTOR TRIP OR SAFETY INJECTION, and perform steps 1-7, while the BOP and the CRS continue with EMG FR-S1.

This action is to verify that all of the SI actuated equipment has actuated.

C. Continue with the EMG FR-S1 until a transition is made back to EMG E-0 step

1. This action is to verify that all of the SI actuated equipment has actuated.

D. Continue with EMG FR-S1 until a transition is made back to EMG E-0 step 1.

This is to verify the emergency borate flow remains above 30 gpm until SDM is determined.

Answer: B Answer Explanation:

Correct - At the step the crew is in they have passed the continuous action step to check for SI. This step sends the crew to perform the first 7 steps of E-0 and then when the CRS completes FR-S1 by moving out to step 25 and 27 a transition will be made to E-0 step 8 since the RO has completed the auto SI verification steps. The bases is there for the SI verification, all the equipment functioned properly and the SI is valid.

Incorrect - Direct the RO back to E-0 and verify emergency boration flow is above 30 gpm. The first part is correct the crew will send an operator back to E-0 to verify the SI. The bases is wrong because even if the emergency boration was started and flow verified prior to the SI when the SI happens the BA transfer pumps are load shed, the emergency borate valve is load shed, and the emergency borate flow goes to 0. This is because the SI is now injecting not the emergency flow path. Plausible if the student doesn't understand what actions take place on the SI.

Incorrect - Continue with FR-S1 and to verify SI. If the crew does not send an operator back to E-0 and then makes it to step 27 they could transition to E-0 at step 1 or step 8, the distinction is whether SI has occurred or not. The verification of the SI must be completed by either the operator sent back to perform it or the crew. The second part is correct to verify the SI. Plausible if the student understands the verification part but doesn't catch the fact that the first part is sending them back to step 1 so the verification will not be made.

Incorrect - Continue with FR-S1 and verify emergency borate flow above 30 gpm.

If the crew does not send an operator back to E-0 and then makes it to step 27 they will transition to E-0 at step 1 or step 8. The verification of the SI must be completed by either the operator sent back to perform it or the crew. The bases is wrong because even if the emergency boration was started and flow verified prior to the SI when the SI happens the BA transfer pumps are load shed, the emergency borate valve is load shed, and the emergency borate flow goes to 0.

This is because the SI is now injecting not the emergency flow path. Plausible if the student doesn't understand what actions take place on the SI and forgets that the SI verification steps must be completed.

1 ID: 98316 Points: 1.00 Step 5 in EMG E-0, REACTOR TRIP OR SAFETY INJECTION, states 'Check if SI is required'.

What is the purpose of this step?

A. Ensure BIT valves are closed so flow can be directed to the normal flow path if indications warrant.

B. To determine which signal caused the SI for future use in the procedure.

C. To ensure BOTH trains of SI have actuated and if NOT to actuate BOTH trains.

D. Maximize the time available to prevent a possible PZR over pressurization caused by going water solid.

Answer: D Answer Explanation:

Correct - per BD E-0 step 5 checks for if this SI is inadvertent and if so it stops all but one charging pump then closes the ECCS flow path valves to the RCS from the CCPs. This action maximizes the time the crew will have to restore normal letdown to prevent the PZR from going water solid and lifting a PORV.

Incorrect - ensure bit valves are closed. The RNO for this step will close the BIT valves IF the SI is inadvertent. Plausible if the student remembers that this step RNO will close the valves but doesn't understand why.

Incorrect - determine which signal caused the SI. The step asks for each signal that could have caused the SI. Plausible if the student uses the check step as a need to know what caused the SI as to if the SI is needed.

Incorrect - ensure both trains of SI have actuated. Step 4 of the procedure checks for this. Plausible as this step deals with the SI but only to determine if its actuated not if its required.

Answer: B Answer Explanation:

Correct - A steam space leak will lower pressure in the RCS but PZR level will raise.

Incorrect - PZR liquid space. This leak location will cause RCS pressure and PZR level to lower. Plausible if the student doesn't understand the leak location.

Incorrect - charging header connection. This leak location will cause RCS pressure and PZR level to lower. Plausible if the student doesn't understand the leak location.

Incorrect - RCS hot leg. This leak location will cause RCS pressure and PZR level to lower. Plausible if the student doesn't understand the leak location.

  • Then BB PI-457 suddenly fails to 2500 psig.

Which, if any, PORV Block valve(s) MUST to be closed to stop the pressure from lowering?

A. BB HV-8000A ONLY B. BB HV-8000B ONLY C. Neither PORV Block valve D. Both PORV Block valves Answer: A Answer Explanation:

Validated on desktop simulator BB HIS-455A PORV is controlled by the output of PZR master pressure controller BB PK-455. Since the selected channel failed hi the associated PORV will open but the other PORV will not. BB HV-456A is controlled by 2/4 pressure channels above setpoint only.

Correct - selected controlling pressure channel fails hi 455A will open and 456A will not. If the block valve for the open PORV were closed then RCS pressure will stabilize out until the problems can be corrected.

Incorrect - Both PORV block valve. Plausible if the student thinks this failure will affect both PORVs in the same way that the controller will operate both valves.

Incorrect - BB HV-8000B. Plausible if the student confuses which PORV the controlling pressure channel controls. If they think of this in reverse then this would be the correct response.

Incorrect - Neither PORV block valve. Plausible because if the actual pressure lowered to less than 2185 psig then the associated PORV block valve will close and since the PORV is a pilot operated valve it will lose its opening force and reclose. The non-affected PORV would be closed before the block valves could close.

Meets the K/A because the opening of the PZR PORV is a SBLOCA and it asks the student to understand how the PORVs function.

'C' RCP #1 seal and bearing water temperature is too high, perform a controlled shutdown to remove 'C' RCP from service D. 'D' RCP thrust bearing temperature is too high, perform a controlled shutdown to remove 'D' RCP from service Answer: B Answer Explanation:

Correct - The value for an immediate RCP shutdown has been exceeded (bearing temp of 195F) per foldout page of OFN BB-005, RCP MALFUNCTIONS, the RCP must be shutdown immediately.

Incorrect - A RCP and trip. The value given is high but for this to cause an immediate shutdown this would have to exceed 299F. Plausible if the student confuses which values go with which component (common misconception).

Incorrect - C RCP and controlled shutdown. The value give for seal and bearing temperature is high but it would have to exceed 230F to be and immediate shutdown and this also only calls for a controlled shutdown. Plausible if the student confuses the values for immediate shutdown and controlled shutdown.

Incorrect - D RCP and controlled shutdown. The thrust bearing temperature is high but would need to be over 195F for this to cause any action for the crew. Plausible if the student confuses the values for immediate and controlled shutdown (common misconception)

  • The plant is being cooled down for a refueling outage
  • RCS pressure is 345 psig stable
  • RCS temperature is 333°F stable
  • PZR level 25% stable
  • 'A' RHR pump in cooldown mode of operation
  • Then: 'A' RHR pump TRIPS With NO operator action, RCS pressure/temperature will _______________, RHR hot leg suction isolation valve will ____________, and the RHR suction relief will ____________.

A. lower, close, remain closed B. lower, remain open, remain closed C. rise, close, lift if pressure rises to 475 psig D. rise, remain open, lift if pressure rises to 475 psig Answer: D Answer Explanation:

Wolf Creek has no auto isolation of RHR piping if pressure rises.

Correct - If RHR is lost during a plant cooldown then RCS pressure and temperature will rise. The RHR suction valves have an interlock to not open unless pressure is lower than 360 psig. If pressure rises after the valve is open there is no effect due to no interlock to close. The suction relief valve lifts at 450 psig so the valve should be open at the given pressure.

Incorrect - Lower, open, and relief closed. The suction valve will be open. The suction relief being closed is plausible if the student confuses the lift setpoint with the RHR discharge relief.

Incorrect - rise, closed and relief open. Plausible if the student recalls the interlock for opening the RHR suction valve and misunderstands that it will not reclose if pressure rises. The relief will be open at this pressure.

Incorrect - lower, closed and relief closed. Plausible if the student recalls the interlock for opening the RHR suction valve and misunderstands that it will not reclose if pressure rises. The suction relief being closed is plausible if the student confuses the lift setpoint with the RHR discharge relief.

Meets the K/A because the question poses a loss of RHR and asks if the system will isolate due to pressure rise. Since there is no auto response for the RHR isolation the only response is that of RCS pressure and its effect on the reliefs.

B. place the 'B' train CCW pumps in P-T-L, place ALL safety related pumps in P-T-L.

C. manually align BL water to the 'B' CCW surge tank prior to level lowering to less than 15% while continuing to locate the leak.

D. manually align ESW to the 'B' CCW surge tank prior to level lowering to less than 15% while continuing to locate the leak.

Answer: D Answer Explanation:

OFN EG-004, ALR 53D 053D comes in at CCW surge tank level of 19%

The OFN will have the operators check if auto normal makeup is aligned and then if level is still lowering to manually lineup ESW and continue to look for the leak. The 15% is based on foldout page that states if surge tank level drops to less than 15% then to trip the reactor and continue with the procedure.

Correct - manually align ESW before 15% and continue to look for leak Incorrect - place B train CCW pumps in PTL and trip reactor, plausible since foldout page will direct this AFTER surge tank level lowers to less than 15%.

Plausible if the student doesn't remember when the foldout page directs this action.

Incorrect - place B train CCW pumps PTL, place all safety related pumps in P-T-L plausible since foldout page will direct this if safety loop is aligned to train being affected if level lowers to less than 15%. Plausible if the student doesn't remember when the foldout page directs this action.

Incorrect - manually align BL water plausible if student confuses normal auto makeup and ESW manual makeup.

Rev 0

Meets the K/A because it asks the operator to operate the CCW and related system for a loss of CCW which will happen if surge tank level continues to lower. It contains surge tank level, level control. At Wolf Creek the low level alarm for the surge tank doesn't come in until 19% so auto makeup should have refilled the surge tank without the alarm from coming in. The radiation alarm will not come in on a leak out of the system only a radioactive leak into the system.

For this question the loss of surge tank level is the cause of the loss of CCW since a radiation alarm would indicate a leak into the system and not be a loss of CCW only that a leak is into the system.

RO knowledge since it asks for the operator to understand the purpose and overall mitigative strategy of the procedure.

Five minutes after the failure RCS subcooling will be ______ AND PZR subcooling will be A. higher, higher B. same, higher C. same, same D. higher, same Answer: D Answer Explanation:

Correct - output lowering will cause heaters to turn on to raise pressure and sprays would not respond to control pressure since the whole system is contorted by the output of the master pressure controller. A PORV will open after pressure gets to setpoint to stop the pressure rise. Since pressure is now higher and temperature is the same RCS subcooling is higher and the PZR pressure and temperature is higher so subcooling would be same.

Incorrect - higher, higher. Plausible if the student confuses pressure and temperature in the PZR since that system will stay at saturated.

Incorrect - same, same. Plausible if the student confuses the fact that the PZR will not change subcooling and thinks the RCS will follow what the PZR will do.

Incorrect - same, higher. Plausible if the student reverses the change in pressure and temperature between the RCS and PZR.

  • RCS cooldown rate is determined to be 125°F/hr
  • All S/G NR levels are off-scale low
  • RCS hot leg temperatures are lowering
  • Containment pressure is normal
1. Which of the following describes how the crew is directed to control AFW flow?
2. What is the basis for this action?

A. 1. Flow is reduced and maintained at 30,000 lbm/hr to any S/G with less than 6% NR level

2. Help stabilize hot leg temperatures to establish conditions for SI termination B. 1. Flow is reduced and maintained at 30,000 lbm/hr to any S/G with less than 6% NR level
2. Maintain RCS cooldown rate C. 1. Flow is maintained greater than 270,000 lbm/hr until at least ONE S/G NR level is above 6%
2. Help stabilize hot leg temperatures to establish conditions for SI termination D. 1. Flow is maintained greater than 270,000 lbm/hr until at least ONE S/G NR level is above 6%
2. Maintain RCS cooldown rate Answer: A Answer Explanation:

Correct - Flow is reduced per step 5 but the caution above the step discusses minimum flow to any SG with NR level less than 6%. The basis discusses that after feed flow is lowered hot leg temperature will rise and step 5 is a continuous action step so flow and steam dumps will control hot leg temperature to establish conditions for SI termination.

Incorrect - flow reduced to 30,000 and maintain RCS cooldown rate. First part is correct. If the student knows cooldown needs to be slowed down then lower AFW flow would help that. Plausible if the student doesn't understand that stabilizing RCS temperature and pressure will allow for SI termination.

Incorrect - flow maintained at 270,000 and maintain RCS cooldown rate. Flow at 270,000 is the number used for all accidents until at least one SG has 6% NR level. This is not made for this case since the feed flow is helping to cause the cooldown. If the student believes this cooldown rate is appropriate. Plausible if the student doesn't understand that stabilizing RCS temperature and pressure will allow for SI termination.

Rev 0

Incorrect - flow maintained at 270,000 and establish conditions for SI termination.

Flow at 270,000 is the number used for all accidents until at least one SG has 6% NR level. This is not made for this case since the feed flow is helping to cause the cooldown. SI termination part is correct. Plausible if the student forgets that for this specific accident AFW flow is not desirable.

Meets the K/A because it asks for interrelations between the uncontrolled depressurization of all SGs and AFW flow (safety system instrumentation). This interrelation is what to do with AFW flow if this happened.

  • 'B' Main Feed Reg Valve fails open
  • 'B' S/G level rises to the P-14 setpoint
  • All S/G NR levels have remained 25% or higher
  • NO operator actions What affect does this failure have on the AFW system?

A. All AFW pumps start All SMART valves throttle appropriately B. NO AFW pumps start NO SMART valves throttle C. ONLY the TDAFW pump starts NO SMART valves throttle D. ONLY 'A' and 'B' MDAFW pumps start All SMART valves throttle appropriately Answer: D Answer Explanation:

LER 15003 Wolf Creek manual reactor trip due to high steam generator level at low power Correct - The P-14 causes a reactor trip and a trip of both MFW pumps which is a start signal for the MDAFW pumps only since SG level never lowered to the low setpoint for the TD pump. The SMART valves will throttle to limit total flow to each SG.

Incorrect - all AFW pumps start. If all the AF pumps start all the SMART valves will be closed due to the TD pump running. Plausible as on a normal trip SG levels shrink lower than the low SG level AFW actuation setpoint. Since the stem states all levels are higher than that and the TDAFW pump didn't get a start signal it would not be running Incorrect - no AFW pumps start. The SMART valves would not move if no pumps start. Plausible since the stem states that no SG level is lower than the actuation setpoint. If the student doesn't understand that the P-14 causes a trip of both MFW pumps which is a start for the MDAFW pumps.

Incorrect - only the TD pump starts. The D SMART valve will throttle but the others will stay open. Plausible if the student confuses which signal starts which pump Meets the K/A because the ability to determine the state of the AFW system on a loss of MFW is asked.

RO knowledge because it asks for system understanding.

11 ID: 98326 Points: 1.00 A station black out occurred at 0800. The crew entered EMG C-0, LOSS OF ALL AC POWER. At 0845 the crew had shed non-essential AC and DC loads per procedure from all NK batteries.

Which of the following is correct with regards to NK battery life?

A. NK11 and NK14 are expected to be totally discharged by 1200 AND NK12 and NK13 are expected to be totally discharged by 1400 B. NK11 and NK14 are expected to be totally discharged by 1400 AND NK12 and NK13 are expected to be totally discharged by 1200 C. NK11, NK12, NK13, and NK14 are expected to last until 1600 D. NK11, NK12, NK13, and NK14 are expected to be totally discharged by 1200 Answer: C Answer Explanation:

NK11 and NK14 are 1600 amp/hr batteries and NK12 and NK13 are 864 amp/hr batteries. Per BD C-0 all batteries are designed to last 240 minutes (4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br />).

Per AI 21-016, OPERATOR TIME CRITICAL ACTIONS VALIDATION and BD C-0 step 27, as long as the non-essential loads are shed off the batteries by the 60 mark all batteries will last 8 hours9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br />.

Correct - Having loads shed it is expected to last a full 8 hours9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br /> per AI-21-016 Incorrect - be totally discharged by 1200. This is the design capacity of the batteries but since a load shed was completed within the 60 minute window then all batteries are expected to last 8 hours9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br />. Plausible if the student fails to recall why the load shed is performed.

Incorrect - NK11 and NK14 totally discharged by 1400 and NK12 and NK13 totally discharged by 1200. NK11 and NK14 are larger batteries and if the student confuses this with the load shed and time then it would be plausible.

Incorrect - NK11 and NK14 totally discharged by 1200 and NK12 and NK13 totally discharged by 1400. NK11 and NK14 are larger batteries and if the student confuses this with the load shed and time then it would be plausible.

Meets the K/A because it asks for battery discharge rate over time (capacity).

  • The Control room staff responded using the appropriate procedure.
  • Four minutes into the event the RO re-scans the alarm panels and notes the following alarms locked in.

Which of the following alarms would be the highest priority for the operators to address AND why?

A. 014D, S/U XFMR TROUBLE, restoring power B. 039A, LTDN HX TEMP HI DIVERT, RCS chemistry concerns C. 055B, ESW PMP B PRESS LO, cooling flow to the EDG D. 077E, SR HI VOLT FAIL, energizing SR detectors Answer: C Answer Explanation:

ALR 055C, OFN EF-033 Correct - with the loss of offsite power the only power left is safety related EDGs which are cooled by ESW. The ALR for 055C entry condition state that the pump has tripped and locked out so with no cooling water the EDG will trip on high temperature Incorrect - 014D comes in on any loss of normal power to it so with a loss of offsite power it will be in until power is restored. Not a priority over the EDG.

Plausible if the student believes that offsite power is more important than safety related power.

Incorrect - 039A comes in on the loss of offsite power due to the loss of CCW for a time and the letdown outlet temperature rising. Plausible if the student misunderstands this is a normal alarm for the loss of offsite power and thinks since there is no cleanup of the RCS water chemistry would be negatively affected.

Incorrect - 077E should be in until the SR detectors energize which should take place about 9 minutes after the reactor trip. Plausible if the student doesn't realize that at four minutes this should still be in.

Meets the K/A because this asks for which alarm is more important than other alarms.

RO knowledge because this is an entry condition into a procedure ALR.

14 ID: 98329 Points: 1.00 STS KJ-005A, MANUAL/AUTO START, SYNC & LOADING OF EDG NE01, is in progress. NE01 has been started from the Control Room and is running with all operating parameters indicating normal. The crew is about to sync NE01 with NB01 (offsite power) when NE01 output voltage goes to 0.

1. Which of the following will cause the above indications?
2. How must NE01 be shutdown given this failure?

A. 1. Loss of NK04 DC bus

2. By manually closing the fuel racks due to a loss of DC control power.

B. 1. Loss of NK01 DC bus

2. By manually closing the fuel racks due to a loss of DC control power.

C. 1. Loss of NK04 DC bus

2. From NE-107 using the STOP pushbutton because the control room switch has lost power.

D. 1. Loss of NK01 DC bus

2. From NE-107 using the STOP pushbutton because the control room switch has lost power.

Answer: B Answer Explanation:

NK01 supplies DC control power to NE01 for field flashing and control from the control room. If this DC is lost when the diesel is running the output voltage will go to 0 and the engine must be shutdown locally since no power to the control room switch no exists.

Correct - per the OFN notes (and the lesson plan) if NK01 is lost with NE01 operating the output voltage will drop to zero and the diesel cannot be synced with the bus. The diesel cannot be shutdown from the control room either it must me locally stopped using the manual lever on the fuel racks.

Incorrect - loss of NK04 and local fuel rack shutdown. NK04 is the control power to NE02. The second part is correct with this loss the fuel racks are the only way to stop the engine. Plausible if the student forgets which DC power supplies which EDG.

Incorrect - NK01 and shutdown from NE-107. The DC power is correct. The local panel and the control room use the DC power to control the EDG so with this loss the local pushbuttons will not work either. Plausible if the student forgets that the same DC power controls the switches in the control room and the local panel.

Incorrect - NK04 and shutdown from NE-107. NK04 is the control power for NE02. The local panel and the control room use the DC power to control the EDG so with this loss the local pushbuttons will not work either. Plausible if the student forgets that the same DC power controls the switches in the control room and the local panel.

OFN EF-033 attachment B valve positions for actuation After an ESW system actuation signal valves reposition automatically Correct - EF-41 should be closed on an actuation of the ESW system since flow is directed back to the UHS and not to service water Incorrect - EF-32 should be open for an actuation to allow full flow through the containment coolers. Plausible if the student confuses which valves in the ESW system reposition and to what position.

Incorrect - EF-37 should be open to allow for the ESW system to discharge back to the UHS. Plausible if the student mistakes the return back to service water and UHS.

Incorrect - EF-60 should be closed since the bypass valves are throttled for proper flow through these heat exchangers. Plausible if the student confuses the bypass and the normal outlet valve positions.

  • A LOCA outside containment has occurred
  • SI has actuated
  • EMG C-12, LOCA OUTSIDE CONTAINMENT, has been entered Which ONE of the following actions will be attempted to isolate the break AND which indication is used to determine if the leak has been isolated?

A. Close RCP seal water return isolation valves (BB HIS-8141A, B, C, D) and monitor PZR level.

B. Close RCP seal water return isolation valves (BB HIS-8141A, B, C, D) and monitor RCS pressure.

C. Isolate RHR to Accumulator Injection Loop (EJ HIS 8809A) and monitor RCS pressure.

D. Isolate RHR to Accumulator Injection Loop (EJ HIS 8809A) and monitor PZR level.

Answer: C Answer Explanation:

EMG C-12 Correct - RHR to accumulator injection loop and RCS pressure. This is the only indication that is looked for in C-12. The RHR cold leg injection valve is specifically called out.

Incorrect - RCP seal return isolation valves and PZR level. C-12 doesn't look at PZR level as an indication that the leak is isolated. RCP common seal return valve is closed not each individual valve. Also the individual valves are inside containment not outside. Plausible if the student doesn't understand what indications to look for in C-12 for leak isolation and if RCP seal return valves are mistaken for being outside of containment.

Incorrect - RCP seal return isolation valves and RCS pressure. RCP wrong for reasons above. RCS pressure is correct. Plausible if the student thinks the RCP seal return valves are outside of containment.

Incorrect - RHR to accumulator injection loop and PZR level. RHR valves are correct but PZR level is not for reasons given above. Plausible if the student doesn't understand what indications to look for in C-12 for leak isolation.

Meets the K/A by having the crew isolate items and then check indications so knowledge of operational implications and indicating signals dealing with LOCA outside containment.

17 ID: 98332 Points: 1.00 The plant was tripped from full power due to a LOCA outside of containment. The crew has transitioned to EMG C-11, LOSS OF EMERGENCY COOLANT RECIRCULATION.

Which ONE of the following signals will the crew reset while in this procedure AND why?

A. P-4 (reactor trip) to allow reset / re-arming of SI.

B. Phase A isolation to restore control of valves to operators.

C. ONLY the SI signal to prevent ECCS pumps from restarting when they are placed in Normal-After-Stop.

D. ONLY the SI (RWST) signal to prevent possible loss of RWST inventory to the containment sump and damage to the RHR pumps.

Answer: D Answer Explanation:

System knowledge of an SI signal and the RWST water level coming down makes this question not a procedure knowledge question but understanding how the system works. The SI reset which was performed in the previous procedures that sent you to C-11, is only part of the swapover for the RWST reset logic.

There is a separate switch for the SI (RWST) swapover that now needs to be reset or the swapover will still occur. The original SI reset just allowed ECCS pumps and valves to be operated as normal without the signal changing any operations of the equipment back to its safeguards lineup.

Correct - Since the SI signal has been reset this will allow the reset of the SI (RWST) signal now to stop the auto swapover to the CTMT sump (that is empty) which would allow RWST water to be lost from injection and damage to the RHR pumps due to no suction source.

Incorrect - only the SI signal. This has been reset in other procedures prior to this point but if this were reset (which is needed to reset the SI (RWST) signal then this would only be part of the signals that need reset in this procedure.

Plausible if the student doesn't understand how the SI and the swapover for the RWST signals work together since the LOCA is outside of CTMT there is no water in the sump for the RHR pump to use if an auto swap were to occur.

Incorrect - P-4. This is an active signal since the plant was tripped. Plausible if the student thinks that P-4 needs to be reset to allow for a second SI for this accident.

Incorrect - Phase A. This is an active signal since the plant was tripped from full power. Plausible if the student thinks that the phase A signal is preventing the proper positioning of valves.

Meets the K/A because it asks for the knowledge of interrelations between the loss of recirc and a component (RHR). Since this procedure assumes there is no water in the CTMT sump protecting the RHR pumps is an interrelation for the loss of recirc.

Rev 0

RO knowledge because it does not ask for the procedure step it only puts the crew in the procedure but asks what signals should be reset to protect what equipment. This is system knowledge of the SI signal and the RWST swapover signal.

  • The plant is at 100% power
  • DG 'A' has been paralleled with bus NB01 and is carrying 5.8 MWe of load in accordance with STS KJ-015A, MANUAL/AUTO FAST START SYNCHRONIZATION AND LOADING OF EDG NE01
  • ANN 019E, NB01 BUS DGRD VOLT, alarms
  • 55 seconds later, BKR 13-48, #7 XFMR OUTPUT BKR, trips open With NO Operator actions, what is the current status of the 'A' Train Safeguards Power system?

A. NB01 Normal Feeder Breaker is CLOSED, NE01 will stop.

B. NB01 Emergency Supply Breaker is OPEN, NE01 will stop.

C. NB01 Normal Feeder Breaker is CLOSED, NE01 will remain running.

D. NB01 Emergency Supply Breaker is OPEN, NE01 will remain running.

Answer: C Answer Explanation:

OFN NB-042, SY1406401 R7 Correct - NB01 Normal Feeder Breaker will remain CLOSED, NE01 will remain running. Once the 13-48 breaker detaches the NB bus from the switchyard, the NB voltage returns to normal values (or a little higher), and the Normal supply breaker remains shut. The EDG remains running despite the load reject.

Incorrect - NB01 Normal Feeder Breaker will remain CLOSED, NE01 will stop.

Right breaker position, D/G will not stop. The loss of load that the EDG will experience when the BKR 13-48 Normal supply breaker opens will not overspeed the EDG.

Incorrect - NB01 Emergency Supply Breaker will OPEN, NE01 will stop. Breaker will remain closed, D/G will not stop. -- There is nothing in the current condition to cause the EDG output breaker to open, and the EDG will not overspeed or stop itself.

Incorrect - NB01 Emergency Supply Breaker will OPEN, NE01 will remain running. Wrong breaker position, right NE01 status. There is nothing in the current condition to cause the EDG output breaker to open.

Comments: ALR 00-019E states that if the EDG is in parallel then to stop parallel operation. OFN NB-042, LOSS OF OFFSITE POWER TO NB01 (NB02)

WITH EDG PARALLELED requires removing power from the switchyard first and then opening the EDG breaker to cause the UV on the bus for emergency operation.

Rev 0

Additional insights: This question is essentially the basis for why OFN NB-042 was created and why we keep a dedicated operator during diesel runs with the engine paralleled. The issue is that an upstream transient may be isolated prior to the bus feeder breaker. If the bus feeder breaker remains closed, the diesel will not shift to emergency mode. Without an SI present, 55 seconds is not long enough for the degraded voltage condition to open the bus feeder breaker. The transformer feeder breaker opens, but there is no transformer lockout. The diesel is tested by surveillance to withstand up to full load reject. The EDG will restore voltage once divorced from the degraded offsite source. The voltage will likely go high, but not excessively due to the power factor limitations in the STS procedure. The operators will perform the actions of OFN NB-042 to place the EDG in emergency mode.

Meets the K/A because it asks for ability to interpret grid disturbances and status of the EDG RO knowledge since this is system understanding of the output breaker of the EDG and NB01 normal power supply breaker.

  • Unit is operating at 100% power
  • Rod Control selector switch is in Auto
  • Control Bank 'D' rods are parked at 231 steps
  • NO operator actions have been taken Which of the following statements is correct with regard to this event AND why?

A. Tave will return to program due to rods stepping OUT.

B. RCS pressure will remain lower than program due to the lower Tave.

C. Main Turbine electrical load lowered due to lower S/G pressures.

D. Tref returns to previous value due to control valves not changing position.

Answer: C Answer Explanation:

SY1511701 4.1.1 Open Loop/Valve Management In OPEN LOOP, the main turbine control system will maintain a steady control valve position without any feedback mechanism. Ovation will position the turbine control valves as needed to establish its interpretation of megawatts based on valve position curves developed by the vendor. Valve curves have been updated and more will be more finely tuned by DCP 14452 (Rev 1) software upgrade.

With a dropped rod at 100% power Tave will lower causing auto rod motion OUT.

Since D bank rods are already at 231 they will only move out to 232 and stop (C-11). With this small rod step and the fact that rods don't have much 'bite' at this height Tave will not return to target and will stay lower than program. This lower Tave will cause the SG pressures to lower thereby lowering overall steam flow to the main turbine. Since the turbine is in open loop mode the control valves will receive no feedback to change valve position so the overall affect is lower electrical output with no operator action.

Correct - main turbine load will lower due to lower SG pressures due to lower Tave Incorrect - Tave will return to program. Tave will remain lower since control rods can only step 4 steps and don't affect temperature much at this height. Tave will stay lower even with the rods stepping out. Plausible if the student thinks that rods will return temperature back to program.

Rev 0

Incorrect - RCS pressure will remain lower than program. Pressure is dictated by PZR program from the master pressure controller which is not affected by the dropped rod or any other things that happen due to this. Plausible if the student confuses the pressure controller with the level which is controlled from Tref and Tave.

Incorrect - Tref returns to previous value. Plausible if the student confuses what controls Tref. Tref is controlled by first stage impulse pressure which will remain lower due to lower SG pressure and valves not moving in this mode of operation Meets K/A because it asks for knowledge of rods and turbine load changes (reason)

20 ID: 98335 Points: 1.00 Given the following:

  • Plant is in MODE 5.
  • Chemistry reports that RCS boron concentration is now 150 ppm lower than the previous sample.
  • The crew recognizes that Shutdown Margin is NOT being met, and initiates an emergency boration using 'A' BA Transfer pump.
  • The RO reports BG FI-183A, EMERG BORATE FLOW, indicates 25 gpm.

Based on this information, the crew will A. align the RWST to the CCP suction.

B. check when emergency boration can be stopped.

C. align a Safety Injection Pump for Emergency Boration.

D. check if normal letdown can be established with current plant conditions.

Answer: A Answer Explanation:

Correct - if flow is less than 30 gpm then the procedure directs using the RWST as a suction source Incorrect - check when emergency boration can be stopped. Plausible if the student thinks this is enough flow from the emergency boration flow path.

Incorrect - Use an SI pump. This alignment is used when Charging System is NOT aligned as operable flowpath (step 1) and since the stem indicates the crew has passed that step because they have indicated flow. Plausible if the student confuses the low flow with the need to use a different pump.

Incorrect - check if normal letdown can be established. Plausible if the student thinks the emergency boration flow rate is good and wants to continue to put the system back in a normal alignment.

Meets K/A because after the BA pump is started the ability to monitor its normal operation is needed to understand that 25 gpm is not enough flow from it so it is broke and the procedure has the crew use a different pump for this.

RO knowledge to understand that anything less than 30 gpm for emergency boration is to low and the next source needed.

A. SR NI N-31, NO B. SR NI N-32, YES C. SR NI N-31, YES D. SR NI N-32, NO Rev 0

Answer: A Answer Explanation:

Proper overlap is SR at ~ 2X104 and IR ~ 1X10-10.

OFN SB-008, attachment P step p12 if you can block the channel and power is above P-6 then continue the startup and fix it later.

Correct - N-31 is reading too low compared to the others.

Incorrect - N-32 and NO. It is showing proper overlap with both the IR detectors for this power. Plausible if the student doesn't know where the overlap between the SR and IR is. Second part is correct.

Incorrect - N-32 and YES. This overlap is correct based on both of the other IR detectors agreeing with it. Per the OFN the start up must be stopped. Plausible if the student misunderstands overlap and TS for the SR detectors.

Incorrect - N31 and YES. Correct detector but per the OFN the startup must be stopped. Plausible if the student misunderstands that the detector is still needed at this power level per TS.

A. SJ RE-01, CVCS Letdown Monitor B. SD RE-39, Reactor Seal Table Area Monitor C. GT RE-59, CTMT High Range Area Monitor D. GT RE-31, Containment Atmosphere Monitor Answer: A Answer Explanation:

Correct - this monitor is listed as the only rad monitor that is a direct entry into the off normal procedure. It monitors the letdown line for activity in the RCS water which would be an indication of high RCS activity.

Incorrect - GT RE-59. This monitor is the containment high range rad monitor whose function is to give rad levels in the event of a LOCA inside containment.

This monitor would show higher than normal radiation levels but since it only shows a high range the letdown monitor would alarm well prior to this one showing any change since the bottom range is 1 R. Plausible if the student confuses monitor functions.

Incorrect - SD RE-39. This monitor checks for high radiation at the reactor seal table which would show higher than normal rad levels but is not intended to be an RCS activity monitor. Plausible if the student confuses monitor functions.

Incorrect - GT RE-31. This monitor checks for high containment airborne activity.

This is an atmosphere monitor so this would look for a leak of RCS water into containment. Plausible if the student confuses monitor functions.

25 ID: 98340 Points: 1.00 During the performance of EMG FR-Z1, RESPONSE TO HIGH CONTAINMENT PRESSURE, which of the following valves will be checked closed AND why?

A. KC HV-253, Fire Protection System Header Outside CTMT Isolation To ensure all non-essential containment penetrations are closed to prevent the release of radioactive materials.

B. EG HV-058, CCW To RCS Outer CTMT Isolation Valve To ensure all the containment penetrations are isolated since this could be the source of the high containment pressure.

C. EG HV-058, CCW To RCS Outer CTMT Isolation Valve To ensure all non-essential containment penetrations are closed to prevent the release of radioactive materials.

D. KC HV-253, Fire Protection System Header Outside CTMT Isolation To ensure all the containment penetrations are isolated since this could be the source of the high containment pressure.

Answer: A Answer Explanation:

Correct - per FR-Z1 basis for step 1 and 2 the reason for ensuring the valves are isolated is to prevent a radioactive release from a non-essential containment penetration. CISA closes the fire header valve (this valve is manually closed during normal ops but still receives a signal to close)

Incorrect - EG HV-058 and prevent the release of rad materials. Phase B will isolate the CCW system from containment not phase A. Plausible if the student confuses which signal closes which valves. The reason is correct.

Incorrect - EG HV-058 and pens closed for high pressure. Phase B will isolate the CCW system from containment not phase A. Plausible if the student confuses which signal closes which valves. The reason is plausible since water injected from any system could raise CTMT pressure.

Incorrect - KC HV-253 and pens closed for high pressure. Correct valve wrong reason. Plausible as any injection from any water source could cause CTMT pressure to rise.

B. The A CCP will be running with NO SI pumps running.

C. The A CCP will be running with the A SI pump running.

D. The B CCP will be running with NO SI pumps running.

Answer: A Answer Explanation:

To get to this point in this procedure you will have had to go from E-0 to E-1 to ES-11. All prior procedures were checked to determine the appropriate indications given for this setup.

RCS subcooling - with pressure at 585 psig saturation temperature is 486°F so 486°F - 404°F = 82°F of subcooling In ES-11 steps 21 and 22 Correct - 'B' CCP and A SI pump. There are two CCPs running so the step will be performed. There are two RCP's running and one SI pump running and with adverse containment 70°F of subcooling is needed to stop the A CCP. There is a note stating that pumps should be stopped in alternate trains so you would not stop the B CCP with the B SI pump tagged out. The next step asks if any SI pumps are running which is yes, so with one CCP running and two RCP's running and one SI pump running 150°F of subcooling is needed. Subcooling is not met so step 22.c RNO directs the crew if RCS temperature is greater than 375°F then go to step 40 and not to stop the running SI pump.

The procedure step states pumps should be stopped in opposite trains. Without a reason for not stopping pumps in this manner they will be.

Rev 0

Incorrect - B CCP with NO SI pumps. There is a note that states pumps should be stopped in alternate trains so the B CCP will be the pump that is stopped. SI pump will not be stopped because subcooling is not met. Plausible if the student fails to use the adverse containment subcooling value and chooses to stop the pump.

Incorrect - A CCP with NO SI pumps. A CCP is correct. SI pump will not be stopped because subcooling is not met. Plausible if the student fails to use the adverse containment subcooling value and chooses to stop the pump.

Incorrect - B CCP with A SI pump running. There is a note that states pumps should be stopped in alternate trains so the B CCP will be the pump that is stopped.

A. Complete the S/G depressurization and then transition to EMG FR-P1, RESPONSE TO IMMINENT PRESSURIZED THERMAL SHOCK CONDITIONS, if the red path still exists B. Immediately transition to EMG FR-P1, RESPONSE TO IMMINENT PRESSURIZED THERMAL SHOCK CONDITIONS C. Complete FR-C2 and then transition to EMG FR-P1, RESPONSE TO IMMINENT PRESSURIZED THERMAL SHOCK CONDITIONS, if the red path still exists D. Stop the S/G depressurization and, if the red path does NOT clear, transition to EMG FR-P1, RESPONSE TO IMMINENT PRESSURIZED THERMAL SHOCK CONDITIONS Answer: C Answer Explanation:

Correct - Because of the SG depressurization, a Red condition on Integrity is expected. If this is not performed and a transition is made then the overall affect would end up being entry into C-1 inadequate core cooling and that is worse than staying in C-2. There is a NOTE in C2 telling the crew NOT to go to P1 if a red condition exists.

Incorrect - immediately transition to P-1. Plausible if the student misunderstands the direction in the note with respect to the direction in the procedure users guide about higher tear procedures.

Incorrect - stop the SG depressurization. Plausible since the action the operator did caused the red path so if they stop it and the red path clears then they might want to stay. Procedure use and adherence understanding.

Incorrect - complete the SG depressurization. Plausible since the FR procedure directed the action after the action then the student may think a transition now needs to be completed.

28 ID: 98343 Points: 1.00 The plant is operating at 45% power, steady state when 'A' RCP experiences an Under-Frequency trip due to an electrical fault. The PA buses continue to operate as normal.

Which of the following describes the 'A' loop RCS temperatures and 'A' S/G response from time 0 to 1 minute after the RCP trip?

(assume NO operator actions)

A. Initially to several seconds later there is little change in Thot and Tcold, after that out to 1 minute the difference is lowering rapidly.

S/G pressure is higher than pre-trip and steam flow is higher.

B. Initially to several seconds later the difference between Thot and Tcold is changing rapidly, after that out to 1 minute the change is smaller.

S/G pressure is higher than pre-trip and steam flow is higher.

C. Initially to several seconds later there is little change in Thot and Tcold, after that out to 1 minute the difference is lowering rapidly.

S/G pressure is the same as pre-trip and steam flow is close to 0.

D. Initially to several seconds later the difference between Thot and Tcold is changing rapidly, after that out to 1 minute the change is smaller.

S/G pressure is the same as pre-trip and steam flow is close to 0.

Answer: C Answer Explanation:

Ran this on the desktop simulator to gather information from. From the time the RCP trip was inserted the RCS loop temperatures slowly converged toward each other. After the flywheel lost forward inertia the temperature difference rapidly converged and then Thot ended up lower than Tcold because of reverse flow in the loop and the SG still removing some heat (not much). The SG pressures were equal to the other SGs since they are all still connected together but the steam flow from the affected loop went down to near 0. Flow from the other pumps goes up due to the loss of the flow from the affected loop.

Correct - The response of Th and Tc is due to the design coast down of the RCPs which lasts approximately 1-1.5 minutes (30 seconds per TS). Although both temperatures will be lower, Th will lower faster than Tc due to the sudden, significant reduction in heat generated by the reactor going to that SG. SG pressure will be relatively stable Incorrect - time 0 little change then rapid change and SG pressure higher. The first part is correct. The affected SG is now not producing any power for the turbine so the other SG must make up the loss of steam flow from this loop so overall pressure is lower not higher. Plausible if the student thinks that the loss of steam flow is because the pressure is higher.

Incorrect - time 0 rapid change then Th and Tc equal and SG pressure same.

The SG pressure is correct. Plausible if the student forgets about the flywheel effect on the RCS indications.

Rev 0

Incorrect - time 0 rapid change then Th and Tc equal and SG pressure higher.

Plausible if the student forgets about the flywheels effect on the RCS indications.

Also the affected SG is now not producing any power for the turbine so the other SG must make up the loss of steam flow from this loop so overall pressure is lower not higher. Plausible if the student thinks that the loss of steam flow is because the pressure is higher.

A. Reactor power will continue to rise until trip on IR high flux.

B. Reactor power will continue to rise too slightly above the POAH.

C. Reactor power will continue to lower until subcriticality is reached.

D. Reactor power will remain constant because charging is flowing to RCP seals ONLY at this point.

Answer: B Answer Explanation:

Correct - At this power level there is no feedback from temperature of the RCS.

As the dilution continues power will rise until the POAH is reached at then power will level off and stay there.

Incorrect - no plant response since charging to seals only. This is a possible lineup for the RCP seals and charging. Plausible if the student mistakes the current normal plant lineup.

Incorrect - lower power until subcritical. This would be true if the setting on the pot was higher than the current RCS boron concentration. Plausible if the student forgets which way the controller works.

Incorrect - trip on IR high flux. If power were to rise above the POAH and did not turn this would happen next. Plausible if the student mistakes the dilution and no operator action with the low power trips and forgets the POAH effects of temperature.

Meets the KA by asking the operational implications of a dilution from the CVCS system. This has a part about understanding that the pot has an effect on this (dilution) but if the stem states a dilution is in progress then the question will be a LOD1 RO knowledge based on system response for a dilution.

30 ID: 98345 Points: 1.00 The plant is operating at 50% power and stable. An electrical failure in controller BG PK-131, LETDOWN HEAT EXCHANGER OUTLET PRESSURE CONTROL, has caused the controller to fail to 0% output.

Which of the following lists the changes in the indications for this failure?

LTDN HX OUTLET LTDN HX OUTLET FLOW PRESS A. DOWN UP B. UP UP C. UP DOWN D. DOWN DOWN Answer: A Answer Explanation:

Correct- With a failure of the BG PK-131 controller to 0% demand this closes the valve fully. This will cause the letdown relief valve inside containment to lift, causing all letdown flow to be directed to the PRT. This will cause pressure to go up and flow back to the VCT (outlet flow) to go down.

Incorrect - Down, Down. Plausible if the student doesn't understand how the system works under failure modes.

Incorrect - Up, Up. Plausible if the student doesn't understand how the system works under failure modes.

Incorrect - Up, Down. This is exactly backwards if the student thinks that 0% is with the valve open. Plausible if the student confuses what 0% means for the valve position.

Boron concentration sample 2305 ppm Pressure 485 psig Borated Water Volume 6294 gal Outlet isolation valve OPEN breaker OPEN If a LBLOCA were to now occur on the 'A' loop hot leg what would be the effect (if any) on the RCS?

A. None, the accumulator would inject as design.

B. The low boron concentration could allow for a reactor re-start.

C. N2 injection could impede natural circulation flow for the 'B' loop.

D. Fuel clad could overheat due to NOT enough water injection from the accumulator.

Answer: D Answer Explanation:

Correct - With the low N2 pressure of the accumulator the full volume of water would not inject and the purpose of the accumulator is to flood the core on a LBLOCA until the ECCS pumps have started and begin to inject water to continue to remove heat.

Incorrect - None. Plausible if the student confuses the TS requirements for the accumulator and believes all spec are made which would indicate that it would perform its design function and fully inject Incorrect - Low boron. Plausible if the student confuses the TS requirements for the accumulator and believes the boron is low and the reason for the boron is to prevent a restart.

Incorrect - N2 injection. Plausible if the student confuses the TS requirements for the accumulator and believes this will cause N2 to inject which would impede NC.

'B' CCW surge tank vent valve indicates closed

'B' CCW surge tank level is up slow Based on the given indications:

1) Where is the leak coming from?
2) What actions will the crew perform per procedure?

A. 1. Letdown Heat Exchanger

2. Bypass the heat exchanger B. 1. Seal Water Heat Exchanger
2. Bypass the heat exchanger C. 1. Seal Water Heat Exchanger
2. Isolate seal water D. 1. Letdown Heat Exchanger
2. Isolate letdown Answer: D Answer Explanation:

The given conditions are indicative of a leak into the CCW system and since the vent valve has closed the water leaking in is radioactive. The surge tank level rising with no makeup also gives indication that water is leaking into the CCW system. Other indications do change but are not required to diagnose this leak location. Of the two locations given in the distractors for the leak only one is higher pressure than CCW. The seal water heat exchanger is lower pressure so the leak would be lowering surge tank level. Since the water in the seal water heat exchanger is radioactive and the procedure does have the crew bypass this component if the leak is suspected there the distractors are very plausible if the student confuses which pressure is higher.

Correct - Per procedure if the leak is not in the seal water heat exchanger the crew is directed to isolate the leak and return to procedure in effect.

Incorrect - Letdown, bypass. The location is correct but there is no procedure direction to bypass this heat exchanger only to isolate it. Plausible if the student confuses the letdown and seal water heat exchanger procedure directions.

Incorrect - Seal water, isolate. This is the wrong location since this heat exchanger is lower pressure than CCW. The procedure has this heat exchanger bypass and not isolated. Plausible if the student confuses which is at higher pressure and which gets bypassed vs isolated.

Rev 0

Incorrect - Seal water, bypass. This is the wrong location but the correct action for a leak in this heat exchanger. Plausible if the student confuses which heat exchanger is higher pressure since the procedure will direct bypassing the seal water one.

  • BB ZL-455C, PZR SPRAY LOOP 2 CTRL VLV, green light lit red light out with controller demand output at 0%
  • BB PK-455A, PZR PRESS MASTER CTRL, demand indicates 40% and down slow
  • ALR 033C, PZR PRESS LO HTRS ON, is lit Which of the following procedures AND actions will mitigate this event?

A. Enter ALR 033C, PZR PRESS LO HTRS ON, and energize PZR backup heaters.

B. Enter ALR 033C, PZR PRESS LO HTRS ON, trip the reactor and stop 'A' and

'D' RCP's.

C. Enter OFN SB-008, INSTRUMENT MALFUNCTIONS, take manual control of BB PK-455B and CLOSE the valve.

D. Enter OFN SB-008, INSTRUMENT MALFUNCTIONS, and select an alternate PZR pressure channel for control.

Answer: C Answer Explanation:

Correct - with 35% demand and both green and red lights lit on one spray valve RCS pressure will be lowering. OFN SB-008 Att V memory action steps have the RO take manual control of either the spray valve or the PZR pressure master controller and control spray flow, in this case close the spray valve is the only choice since the master controller is at 40% and down slow and the other spray valve is closed. The master pressure controller will not correct this failure.

Incorrect - ALR 033C and trip reactor and stop A and D RCP's. This ALR would be correct for this issue but not to trip the reactor and stop RCP's. Plausible if the student feels no actions taken will stop the pressure from lowering to less than the reactor trip setpoint and stopping RCP's will stop the pressure from dropping any lower.

Incorrect - ALR 033C and energize PZR heaters. This ALR would be correct for this issue but energizing heaters will only at most delay a reactor trip on low pressure if more action is not taken. Plausible if the student feels that the heaters alone will mitigate the pressure lowering.

Rev 0

Incorrect - OFN SB-008 and select alternate pressure channel. Correct procedure but with the indications given a pressure channel has not failed.

Plausible if the student feels that selecting out a failed pressure channel will stop the pressure from lowering any more.

Which of the following describes why this alarm is received?

A. Due to a loss of a DC power supply on one train of RPS.

B. Due to a loss of an output relay cabinet in RPS.

C. Due to a loss of input relays on one train of RPS.

D. Due to the loss of the ability to trip the 'B' reactor trip breaker.

Answer: A Answer Explanation:

Correct - NN02 supplies power to RPS in three places. Two are the input relays for the white train of logic. The other one is 15/48 VDC logic cabinet power supply to B train only.

Incorrect - output relay cabinet. The output relay cabinets are powered from NN01 and NN04.

Incorrect - input relay on one train. NN02 powers up both trains white channel inputs not just one.

Incorrect - loss of ability to trip the B trip breaker. General warning alarm is associated with the rod control system and trip breakers are the source of power for the rod control system. Plausible if the student puts this together wrong and believes this will prevent the trip breaker opening from the control room.

Meets KA by asking what RPS power supply is lost RO knowledge of power supplies to RPS. High cog because of integrating the NN02 loss and the SSPS B general warning alarm.

A. YES, H2 fans will need to be manually started.

B. NO, H2 fans will need to be manually started.

C. YES, there will be NO effect on plant equipment.

D. NO, there will be NO effect on plant equipment.

Answer: D Answer Explanation:

M-744-00025 Correct - SI signals once started require a 60 second timer to complete before any other actions with the related equipment can be completed. This also locks out any reset of the SI prior to this timer completing.

Incorrect - No, H2 fan need manual start. The SI signal part is correct you cannot reset it until the timer is complete. H2 fans will start at 60 seconds since there is no input from the SI signal except to start an independent timer that will restart these fans after 60 seconds regardless of any other action taken by the crew.

Incorrect - Yes, H2 fan need manual start. The SI signal will block all reset attempts until its 60 second timer completes. H2 fans will start at 60 seconds since there is no input from the SI signal except to start an independent timer that will restart these fans after 60 seconds regardless of any other action taken by the crew.

Which of the following is the correct response to this event AND why?

The 'A' Cavity Cooling fan...

A. auto starts to provide cooling to the incore instrumentation vessel connections.

B. must be manually started to provide cooling to the incore instrumentation vessel connections.

C. must be manually started to provide cooling to the excore NIs to prevent possible damage due to high temperatures.

D. auto starts to provide cooling to the excore NIs to prevent possible damage due to high temperatures.

Answer: D Answer Explanation:

SY1302600 Correct - a loss of power to the running fan will auto start the other fan. One of the functions of these fans is to cool the excore NI detectors to a max of 135F.

This allows them to operate properly and give reliable indications. As stated in the NI LP if temperature gets too high for the detectors they will not provide accurate indication.

Incorrect - Auto start and cool the instrument vessel connections. The first part is correct it will auto start. The instrument vessel connections are on top of the head and not cooled by the cavity cooling fans. Plausible if the student confuses where the fans discharge to.

Incorrect - manual start and cools excore NIs. The fans will auto start on a loss of power, that is all that will auto start them. A failure of the running fan will not start its counterpart. The second part is correct. Plausible if the student remembers that the fans don't start on a malfunction of the fan but forgets that loss of power is not a malfunction of the fan.

Incorrect - manual start and cools instrument vessel connections. The fans will auto start on a loss of power, that is all that will auto start them. A failure of the running fan will not start its counterpart. The instrument vessel connections are on top of the head and not cooled by the cavity cooling fans.

43 ID: 98358 Points: 1.00 With the plant operating at full power which of the following failures of AE PT-508, Main Feed Header Pressure Channel, would cause an INITIAL RISE in feedwater flow to all S/G's AND what procedural action will the crew take to mitigate the failure?

A. Fails LOW. Take manual control of Main Feedwater Regulating valves.

B. Fails LOW. Take manual control of Main Feedwater pump speed.

C. Fails HIGH. Take manual control of Main Feedwater pump speed.

D. Fails HIGH. Take manual control of Main Feedwater Regulating valves.

Answer: B Answer Explanation:

Correct - this is an input to the feed pump speed control circuit so when this fails low the MFP will speed up causing an initial SG level rise. To fix this per OFN SB-008 take manual control of the MFP speed controller.

Incorrect - AE PT-508 fails high take manual control of main feed reg valves.

This failure will cause a lowering of main feed pump to restore program differential pressure for the main feed pump. The OFN will have the BOP take manual control of the pump not each feed reg valve. Plausible if the student confuses what inputs to the main feed pump speed and what affect it would have on the system as well as this action is required for other failures within the feed system.

Incorrect - AE PT-508 fails high take manual control of main feed pump speed.

Correct procedure action to take but the failure will cause a lowering of main feed pump to restore program differential pressure for the main feed pump. Plausible if the student confuses what inputs to the main feed pump speed and what affect it would have on the system.

Incorrect - AE PT-508 fails low take manual control of main feed reg valves.

Correct failure to cause the initial rise in main feed pump speed to raise flow to all SG but the OFN will have the BOP take manual control of the pump not each feed reg valve. Plausible since this is an action for different failures within the main feed pump and feed reg valves.

Reactor trip

'B' MDAFWP fails to start Based on the information given what is the status of the following MDAFW valves 1 minute later?

X=CLOSED O=OPEN A S/G MD B S/G MD C S/G MD D S/G MD A. X O O X B. X X X X C. O X X X D. O X X O Answer: C Answer Explanation:

Validated on the desktop simulator With the reactor trip from 100% AFW will start on SG low level. The TDAFWP will start and flow to all SGs and discharge valves will not throttle they will stay full open. The B MDAFWP starting allows the signal to be sent to the smart valves to arm and throttle flow. The D SG MD valve works different. When the B MD pump trips the D SG valve will throttle closed base on flow from the TD pump but the A SG valve will stay open since the B MD pump is not running. For the smart valves to work the MD pump must be running but D SG is different.

Correct - With a start or not start of the B MD pump the D SG smart valve will still throttle closed due to flow from the TDAFW pump. But the A SG valve will not close because the B MD pump is not running which is required to make this valve work as design Incorrect - all closed. This is the normal response if no failure happens. All smart valve close based on flow. Plausible if the confuses the fact that since flow is going to all SG that all smart valves should function as normal.

Incorrect - A and D open, B and C closed. This is what would happen if the A MD pump failed to start. Plausible if the student confuses what pump feeds what SG. Correct is A - BC and B - AD Incorrect - A and D closed, B and C open. Plausible if the student understands how the smart valves work but forgets the D SG valve is wired different.

AC Megawatts 6801 kW and stable NB01 bus voltage 4.25 kV and stable Which of the following is correct with regard to this surveillance?

A. Lower bus voltage to prevent damage to the bus.

B. Lower bus voltage to prevent damage to the EDG.

C. Limit total run time at this kW level to prevent damage to the EDG.

D. Limit total run time at this kW level to prevent damage to the bus.

Answer: C Answer Explanation:

Correct - continuous loading of the EDG is limited to 6.2 Mw, any loading over that is limited by time. Loading over 6.2 to 6.8 Mw is limited to 2 hours2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br /> by procedure. Operation with this high of loading can cause overheating and insulation breakdown over time.

Incorrect - limit total time to prevent damage to the bus. The bus can handle more load than the EDG so this is a correct limit for the EDG but not the bus.

Plausible if the student confuses the voltage and the MW limit.

Incorrect - lower voltage to prevent damage to the bus. This voltage is a little high but within normal limits. Plausible if the student confuses the voltage limit and the MW limit and believes that overall bus damage would occur at this voltage level.

A. 025A, NN01 INST BUS UV, is received The transfer switch automatically transfers to the bypass source B. 025A, NN01 INST BUS UV, is received The transfer switch must be manually transferred to the bypass source C. 025B, NN11 INV TRBL/XFR, is received The transfer switch automatically transfers to the bypass source D. 025B, NN11 INV TRBL/XFR, is received The transfer switch must be manually transferred to the bypass source Answer: C Answer Explanation:

Correct - With the loss of the input DC from the battery to the NN inverter the inverter will auto swap to the bypass source (static transfer switch). This will cause only the trouble alarm 025B to come into the control room. The NN bus is still energized and working just with a different power supply.

Incorrect - 025B and manually transferred. The alarm is correct but the operation of the transfer switch is auto not manual. Plausible since this piece of equipment was replaced with a new one in spring of 2015.

Incorrect - 025A and auto transferred. The NN bus will not lose voltage and will operate normally just on the bypass source. The second part is correct.

Plausible if the student thinks this DC input loss will cause the NN bus to become de-energized.

Incorrect - 025A and manually transferred. The NN bus will not lose voltage and will operate normally just on the bypass source. The operation of the transfer switch is auto not manual. Plausible if the student thinks this DC input loss will cause the NN bus to become de-energized and since this equipment was replace in spring of 2015.

Meets KA because student must know the expected response of the DC electrical system in order to monitor that response. As the DC system feeds the NN inverters and when there is a problem with the DC input the inverter will swap to an alternate source. This indicates that there is a problem with the DC source.

49 ID: 98364 Points: 1.00 The unit was operating at full power when a LOCA occurred.

20 seconds AFTER the LOCA sequencer activated a CSAS signal was generated.

At what time will the Containment Spray pumps start AND why?

A. Time 60 seconds, to prevent a trip of the EDG output breaker.

B. Time 40 seconds, to prevent a trip of the EDG output breaker.

C. Time 40 seconds, to ensure all Containment fans are running prior to spray starting.

D. Time 60 seconds, to ensure all Containment fans are running prior to spray starting.

Answer: B Answer Explanation:

E-12NF01; SY 1406401 and Figure 7.

If a CSAS is not present at the 15 second step on the LOCA sequencer circuit, the Containment Spray Pumps are prevented from automatically starting until the 25 second timer is completed. This timer starts at time 15 seconds on the LOCA sequencer if the spray signal does not exist at that time. The earliest it could start in this case would be 40 seconds (15 + 25 = 40). The reason is to allow the starting current to decay down prior to starting the next required load to prevent the EDG output breaker from tripping on over current.

Correct - based on the block of the CSAS until the LOCA sequencer is at 40 seconds.

Incorrect - time 40, ensure all containment fans are running. Time is correct.

The H2 fans shift to slow speed at time 60 seconds (separate timer than the LOCA sequencer). Plausible if the student knows the time but not the reason since fans do start all the way out to the 60 second mark.

Incorrect - time 60, prevent a trip of the EDG output breaker. The H2 fans shift to slow speed at time 60 seconds (separate timer than the LOCA sequencer).

Plausible if the student confuses which loads sequenced on the safeguards bus since the H2 fans do shift at this point.

Incorrect - time 60, ensure all containment fans are running. The H2 fans shift to slow speed at time 60 seconds (separate timer than the LOCA sequencer).

Plausible if the student confuses the loads sequenced on the safeguards bus and the reason for the delay in the start for the spray pump.

50 ID: 98365 Points: 1.00 At 10:00 Wolf Creek experienced a loss of off-site power.

At 10:30 Off-site power has been restored and is ready to be re-aligned to the safety related busses.

The RO is performing SYS NB-201, TRANSFERRING NB01 POWER SOURCES, to restore normal off-site power to NB01.

The synchroscope is placed in the Main Feeder Position and is rotating slowly in the SLOW direction (counter clockwise).

Incoming voltage is 4185 VAC NB01 bus voltage is 4130 VAC What actions must the RO take to parallel the EDG with the off-site source?

A. Raise EDG speed, Raise EDG voltage B. Lower EDG speed, Raise EDG voltage C. Raise EDG speed, Lower EDG voltage D. Lower EDG speed, Lower EDG voltage Answer: B Answer Explanation:

This starts in OFN NB-035, LOSS OF OFFSITE POWER RESTORATION, and then that sends you to the SYS procedure to complete the swap.

Correct - by lowering the speed of the diesel then the offsite source will be faster (sync scope is rotating with the incoming source not the diesel) and the sync permissives will be met. The voltage must be raised for the diesel so the breaker can be closed and because the procedure has the operator match voltage. This will allow all the permissives to be met and the normal feeder breaker to be closed.

Incorrect - Lower and lower. Lower speed is correct. Lowering voltage will cause the diesel to be greater than 50 volts lower than offsite power. The procedure says to match voltage with offsite. Plausible if the student confuses which source is on the bus and which source is incoming.

Incorrect - Raise and lower. If speed is raised then the sync scope will rotate fast in the slow direction since it is looking and the incoming source compared to the running source. Lowering voltage will cause the diesel to be greater than 50 volts lower than offsite power. The procedure says to match voltage with offsite.

Plausible if the student confuses which source is on the bus and which source is incoming.

Incorrect - Raise and raise. If speed is raised then the sync scope will rotate fast in the slow direction since it is looking and the incoming source compared to the running source. Raise voltage is correct.

What is the reason for performing this function prior to an effluent release?

A. Cause the ALERT alarm to come in to check its setpoint.

B. Calibrate the detector prior to performing a radioactive release.

C. Prove the monitor is functional to ensure monitoring of the release.

D. Check that the display colors change due to increased rad levels from the detector.

Answer: C Answer Explanation:

SYS SP-121, ALR 062C, SY1407200. All discuss the way to perform a check source and the proper outcome of the test to ensure the monitor is operable. It also discusses what is seen if the check source fails. Precaution of the SYS states that if the monitor check source is energized and the detector reaches the source limit that it is a SAT check. The source check is only about a third decade per minute so no alarms will come in due to the check. The check is to determine if the monitor can detect radiation only, not a calibration check of alarm setpoints or accuracy.

Correct - per the SYS the monitor check is to determine if the monitor is operable or not.

Incorrect - Calibrate the detector. The check source is only a response test not a calibration of the detector. Plausible as the detector does need to be calibrated prior to use but this is not the correct way to perform that.

Incorrect - Cause the alert alarm. This will only indicate that the detector will show a response not raise it to the level of an alarm. Plausible since all the detectors do have alarm setpoint that should be checked prior to a release but this check will not set them off.

Incorrect - Display color change. While this will cause the display color to change from green to half intensity cyan for the duration of the test it will go back to green when completed sat. The color change is not why the test is ran just an indication that the test is running. Plausible since this does take place but not to just see the color change its for response check.

Compressor Sequencer Selector Switch, KA HSS-310, is selected to the C-A-B position All three air compressors are selected to AUTOMATIC

'A' Air Compressor (CKA01A) is running unloaded

'B' Air Compressor (CKA01B) is NOT running

'C' Air Compressor (CKA01C) is running loaded KA PV-11, Service Air Isolation Valve, is open What is the automatic system response to an air leak that results in air system pressure decreasing to 105 psig?

A. All three air compressors are running, but only two are loaded. KA PV-11 remains OPEN.

B. Only CKA01A and CKA01C are running and both are loaded. KA PV-11 remains OPEN.

C. All three air compressors are running and all three are loaded, KA PV-11 CLOSES.

D. Only CKA01A and CKA01C are running and both are loaded, KA PV-11 CLOSES.

Answer: C Answer Explanation:

Lead cycles between 116 and 125 psig Lag cycles between 114 and 123 psig Standby cycles between 112 and 121 psig KA PV-11 closes at 110 psig.

With pressure at 105 psig, all three compressors are running loaded and KA PV-11 valve is closed.

Correct - at 105 psig all the compressors should be loaded and KA PV-11 will have closed at 110 psig.

Incorrect - only A and C running with KA PV-11 open. With pressure this low all are running and 11 is closed. Plausible if the student confuses values of start stop and or sequencer switch position.

Incorrect - all three running two loaded with KA PV-11 open. With pressure this low all are running and 11 is closed. Plausible if the student confuses values of start stop and or sequencer switch position.

56 ID: 98371 Points: 1.00 Given the following with the unit at 100% power:

OFN BB-007, RCS LEAKAGE HIGH, was entered based on PZR level lowering

'B' CCP is running BG FK-121, CCP DISCH FLOW CTRL, is in manual with 100% output demand ALL letdown orifice isolation valves are CLOSED PZR level is 48% and down at 1% per minute RCS pressure is stable at 2231 psig As the crew performs the appropriate actions which of the following describes the injection path for the CCPs FIVE minutes later?

A. Both CCPs are injecting into ALL four cold legs in ECCS mode B. 'A' CCP is injecting into loop 1 & 2 cold legs in ECCS mode ONLY

'B' CCP is injecting into loop 3 & 4 cold legs in ECCS mode ONLY C. 'A' CCP is secured

'B' CCP is injecting into the loop 1 cold leg in charging mode D. Both CCPs are injecting into the loop 1 cold leg in charging mode Answer: A Answer Explanation:

Correct - OFN BB-007 foldout page states that if charging is maximized from one pump with letdown isolated and PZR level lowering then trip the Rx and actuate SI (ECCS mode injection). Five minutes later that crew will have performed this and still be in EMG E-0 working through it. The CCPs will be both running, due to the SI, and injecting through the BIT header which is both pumps discharge coming together and flowing to all four cold legs in the ECCS mode.

Incorrect - A CCP secured and B injecting. OFN BB-007 will have the crew actuate SI and this will realign the pumps to ECCS injection mode. Plausible if the student forgets the OFN foldout page criteria for SI and thinks that the crew will continue to work through the OFN since PZR level is lowering very slow.

Incorrect - Both pumps injecting in charging mode. Both pumps will be running due to the SI but will not be using the normal charging flowpath. Plausible if the student remembers the SI off of foldout page but confuses where the injection for the CCPs is for the ECCS mode vs normal charging mode.

Incorrect - A CCP injecting into 1 and 2 B CCP injecting into 3 and 4. The SI realign both pumps to be running but not to the loops given. They will both be injecting to all loops. Plausible if the student confuses the RCS tap points for the CCPs between the normal charging and ECCS mode.

57 ID: 98372 Points: 1.00 The plant is operating at 100% when the upper selected PZR level channel fails to 0%.

Which of the following is an expected plant response to this failure AND why?

(assume NO operator action)

A. Actual PZR level lowers due to charging flow lowering.

B. PZR spray valves will open due to actual PZR pressure rising.

C. ALR 033E, PZR HTR GROUP LOCKOUT, will alarm due to heaters being tripped off.

D. PZR backup heaters will energize due to actual PZR level being greater than 5% above program.

Answer: B Answer Explanation:

M-744-0028 Correct - With this failure letdown isolates and charging goes to max so no water out and more water in will raise pressure in the PZR. Heaters are off due to letdown isolation at 17% (failed channel low) so this is not adding to the pressure rise. Sprays open to lower pressure but will not lower pressure back to 2235 psig.

Incorrect - ALR 033E. This alarm will come in if any PZR heater breaker is tripped open. Since the failed channel failed low the breakers are not tripped but locked out from coming on. Plausible if student confuses how the PZR heaters operate under these conditions.

Incorrect - PZR backup heaters energize. These heaters are controlled by the upper selected channel so when it fails low they backup heaters are lock out from coming on. Plausible since actual level will rise and be greater than 5% above program which should have turned them on baring the failure.

Incorrect - PZR level lowers. This would happen if the level channel had failed HI. Plausible if the student confuses the different failure modes, when letdown isolates then charging should lower to keep from over filling the PZR.

Q58, Rev 1 ID: 98373 Points: 1.00 The plant is operating at 100% power when the following takes place:

  • 'B' train reactor trip breaker is open With NO operator action what affect (if any) will this failure have on the operation of the steam dump system?

A. Steam dumps will ARM and RCS temperature will go to 557°F.

B. Steam dumps will ARM and RCS temperature will go to 559°F.

C. Steam dumps will NOT ARM and RCS temperature will go to 557°F.

D. Steam dumps will NOT ARM and RCS temperature will go to 561°F.

Answer: A Answer Explanation:

Correct - The A train reactor trip breaker controls steam dump arming but arming is also controlled by loss of load from C-7 so steam dumps are armed. B train reactor trip breaker controls which controller the steam dumps work off of. With this breaker open the steam dumps will be controlled by the plant trip controller.

Incorrect - armed and 559F. Plausible if the student confuses which reactor trip breaker does what. This statement is if they reversed the correct breaker inputs.

Incorrect - not armed and 557F. Plausible since the A train reactor trip breaker still being closed means no arming from it but C-7 does arm the steam dumps. Since the B train breaker opened the plant trip controller is controlling the temperature at 557F.

Incorrect - not armed and 561F. Plausible since the A train reactor trip breaker still being closed means no arming from it but C-7 does arm the steam dumps. But if the student doesn't think the steam dumps are armed then he would think the temperature is being controlled by the ARVs which are set at 561F Meets KA asks if student can monitor the auto selection of NNIS inputs with regards to steam dump controller used during a reactor trip with a failure RO knowledge basic system design and interlocks OPS INITIAL NRC Page: 1 of 2 14 October 2015

Q59, Rev 1 ID: 98374 Points: 1.00 The unit has experienced an earthquake, loss of Off Site power, and a LOCA. The crew has transitioned to EMG E-1, LOSS OF REACTOR OR SECONDARY COOLANT. The following indications are noted:

  • RCS pressure 1790 psig
  • CETC temperature 1210 °F
  • 'A' CCP OOS due to planned maintenance
  • 'B' CCP Breaker tripped and will NOT reset
  • Total AFW flow 150,000 lbm/hr stable
  • All S/G NR levels 2% thru 8%

Based on the indications given the crew will...

A. transition to EMG FR-C1, RESPONSE TO INADEQUATE CORE COOLING B. transition to EMG FR-C2, RESPONSE TO DEGRADED CORE COOLING C. transition to EMG FR-H1, RESPONSE TO LOSS OF SECONDARY HEAT SINK D. continue with EMG E-1, LOSS OF REACTOR OR SECONDARY COOLANT Answer: A Answer Explanation:

With a loss of offsite power RCP's are off. Subcooling for the 1790 psig is around 621°F and with CETC at 1150°F subcooling is not met. Also with the power loss the NCP is unavailable.

FR procedures are monitored after the transition out of E-0 is made.

Correct - Based on CETCs over 1200F the entry condition has been made for red path to C1.

Incorrect - FR-C2 orange. Plausible if the student fails to use the 1200F as a entry condition and moves on down the F-0 to the orange path for C2 based on RCPs stopped, RVLIS, and CETC.

Incorrect - FR-H1 red path. AFW flow is lower than the 270,000 lbm/hr requirement but since SG levels are above 6% NR this can be lowered. Plausible if the student mistakes the low flow with a requirement from F-0 to go here.

Incorrect - E-1. RCS pressure is used in multiple locations throughout this procedure to determine if ECCS flow should be reduced and with pressure staying high this is a concern with RHR pumps. Plausible if the student mistakes high RCS pressure with the need to secure RHR pumps and reduce ECCS flow over the red path entry.

  • RO reports SFP level is -25" and lowering rapidly
  • Aux Building operator confirms RO report using the local level indicator
  • The leak location is currently UNKNOWN Which of the following areas is required to be evacuated AND what makeup source is preferred?

A. Fuel Building Area ONLY, RWST B. Fuel Building Area ONLY, RMWST (water only)

C. Fuel Building Area AND the Aux Building, RWST D. Fuel Building Area AND the Aux Building, RMWST (water only)

Answer: A Answer Explanation:

Correct - Foldout page of the OFN directs to Attachment A which evacuates the fuel building and makeup is from a borated water source first.

Incorrect - fuel building and makeup from RMWST. The first part is correct but makeup will be from a borated water source before an unborated sources is used and since the stem says nothing about an issue with the RWST it will be used. Plausible if the student forgets what type of water to use to fill the pool.

Incorrect - fuel and aux building makeup from RWST. Makeup source is correct but the procedure only has the fuel building evacuated. Foldout page items are required knowledge for RO's. Plausible if the student thinks the two buildings have the same ventilation system.

Incorrect - fuel and aux building makeup from RMWST. Procedure only has the fuel building evacuated. Makeup will be from a borated source first. Plausible if the student confuses the ventilation systems or where makeup will come from first.

A. Restricts flow of steam to the Main Turbine.

B. Provides a measuring point for steam flow rate.

C. Provides for the upper tap of the S/G WR level detector.

D. Provides a tap for the Main Steam Header pressure detector.

Answer: B Answer Explanation:

Correct - One of the purposes of the flow restrictor.

Incorrect - provides tap for steam pressure. Plausible since this does supply a point for the steam flow which uses pressure to density compensation.

Incorrect - restricts flow to main turbine. While it does provide a flow restriction on a steam line break (SG pressure to atmosphere) it doesn't restrict flow to the main turbine. The flow rate to the main turbine is lower than the flow would be on a steam line break. Plausible if the student confuses what flow is being restricted.

Incorrect - provides tap for SG WR level. Since there is a tap for steam flow here it is plausible that the upper tap for SG level could be at this same location.

64 ID: 98379 Points: 1.00 The operators are raising power from 35% to full power. Current RCS boron concentration is 630 ppm.

Which of the following will be used to control reactivity during the power increase?

A. Use control rods to maintain I on the 100% power target.

B. Allow rods to move automatically to follow turbine load without diluting.

C. Use rods and normal dilution to maintain I and Tavg / Tref within band.

D. Maintain the control rods at the 'parked position' and use normal dilution to change power.

Answer: C Answer Explanation:

Correct - since a combination of rods and dilution will raise power, delta flux has to be within limits above 50% power per TS 3.2.3 and QPTR is valid at or above 50% TS 3.2.4.

Incorrect - Use control rods to maintain delta-I on 100% power target. Axial Offset (AO) is maintained as close to 100% value as possible, however, delta-I can be far from the 100% target since rods start out at a very low position causing delta-I to be much more negative than AO. Plausible if the student misunderstands the relationship between rods and boron as power changes.

Incorrect - Maintain the control rods at the 'parked position' and use normal makeup to change power. If power were higher to start with this could be true but with power crossing the 50% value rods must be moved to maintain delta-I.

Plausible if the student doesn't recognize the power change encompasses TS items.

Incorrect - Allow rods to move automatically to follow turbine load without diluting.

If power were to be lowered this would be correct rods are used in auto to help follow the turbine. Also rods will reach their full out position prior to the unit reaching full power so dilution will be required. Plausible if the student mistakes raising and lowering power rod control or misunderstands that rods will be full out prior to full power.

A. become optional upon entry into EMG FR-C1.

B. are NOT applicable upon entering EMG FR-C1.

C. remain applicable throughout the performance of EMG FR-C1.

D. remain applicable until superseded by directed actions of EMG FR-C1.

Answer: B Answer Explanation:

AP 15C-003 6.6.6 and 7 After transitioning to another procedure, continuous action steps are applicable unless superseded by alternate guidance in the new procedure or stated to be inapplicable.

If a Red or Orange path ERG is entered, any continuous action steps from the previous procedures should not be performed. Entry into a Red or Orange path ERG indicates that plant conditions have severely degraded and the strategy of the suspended procedures is not effective.

Correct - since a C-1 is a red path procedure any continuous actions prior to entry are no longer performed.

Incorrect - remain applicable until superseded by directed actions of EMG FR-C1. Plausible if the student misunderstands the requirement for continuous action steps in FRs.

Incorrect - are NOT applicable upon transitioning from EMG E-1. Plausible if the student confuses the transition to FRs and other EMGs since normally they do apply.

Incorrect - become optional upon entry into EMG FR-C1. Plausible since the continuous actions are applicable if transitions are made to other EMG procedures that are not red or orange path until superseded.

B. 'A' S/G NR level is 77%

C. RCS pressure is 2185 psig D. 'B' RCP Frame vibration is 8 mils Answer: D Answer Explanation:

AP 21-001, CONDUCT OF OPERATIONS, if any trip setpoint has been reached and no auto reactor trip has worked after you verify the validity of the alarm then the reactor must be placed in a safe condition.

Correct - The RCP has exceeded the rapid shutdown criteria for the pump which will require a manual reactor trip and a stop of the affected RCP.

Incorrect - PZR level. PZR level has not exceeded the auto trip setpoint.

Plausible if the student confuses the trip setpoint with action contained in OFNs for this condition.

Incorrect - RCS pressure is low. RCS pressure has not lowered enough to cause an auto reactor trip and one is not warranted at this point. Plausible if the student thinks they should try and 'beat' the reactor trip before any setpoint is reached.

Incorrect - SG MFRV. At 77% SG level a FWIS has not been generated.

C. Hanging a clearance order tag in a High Radiation area.

D. Placing a MFRV in manual after a S/G controlling level fails.

Answer: A Answer Explanation:

Correct - This is required since rod parking is a planned event that will change reactivity.

Incorrect - tripping the main turbine during an ATWS. This is one of the first steps in EMG E-0 which peer checks are suspended for so it will not slow down the mitigation strategy. Plausible is the student thinks of this as a reactivity change and peer checks are required for it except during EMGs Incorrect - placing the main feed reg valve in manual. During OFNs peer checks are suspended until the plant is stable. Plausible if the student confuses this with EMG guidance.

Incorrect - hanging a clearance order tag in a high rad area. Plausible since the procedure directs this as a shall except in a high rad area.

C. EAL-4, MAIN STEAM LINE BREAK based on Containment pressure and humidity AND SI actuated.

D. EAL-3, LOSS OF REACTOR COOLANT BOUNDARY based on apparent RCS leakage AND SI actuated.

Answer: D Answer Explanation:

Correct - EAL-3, 1,2,3,5,6,7 Alert. A LOCA pressure and level will lower fast. A steam break removes more heat from the coolant and steals some from the main turbine. The extra steam flow also raises reactor power. In this case power is constant and pressure is lowering so this is a LOCA Incorrect - EAL-4, SI actuated ONLY. A steam break will cause an SI but with power and Tave stable this is not the case here. Plausible if the student misdiagnoses this event.

Incorrect - EAL-3, SI actuated ONLY. A steam break will cause an SI based on the cooldown alone. Plausible if the student misdiagnoses this event.

Incorrect - EAL-4, Containment pressure and humidity AND SI actuated. Steam break will lower RCS pressure but it also lowers Tave. Plausible if the student misdiagnoses this event.

Correct - OFN EJ-015. This procedure contains action that will protect the RHR pumps and establish containment closure. This procedure is the highest priority based on conditions given even though other entry conditions are met for other procedures they will not correct the issue.

Incorrect - OFN BB-031. Plausible if the student confuses the loss of CCW (thermal barrier cooling) with loss of seal injection which would lead to a LOCA through the seals. Also this procedure can only be entered if the plant is in mode 3 after accumulators are isolated or mode 4.

Incorrect - OFN EG-004. Plausible if the student thinks the loss of CCW is higher priority than the loss of RHR. This procedure will not correct the loss of RHR.

Incorrect - OFN EC-046. Plausible if the student understands that the loss of CCW will lead to a loss of fuel pool cooling and thinks this is higher priority than loss of RHR.

A. 60 uCi/gm AND LOCA B. 60 uCi/gm AND SGTR C. 500 uCi/gm AND SGTR D. 500 uCi/gm AND LOCA Answer: B Answer Explanation:

Correct - This limit is based on a SGTR event and release of steam through a SG ARV.

Incorrect - less than 500 uCi/gm and SGTR. Correct event wrong limit. Plausible as this limit is in the same TS as the iodine limit but this is for XE-133.

Incorrect - less than 60 uCi/gm and LOCA. Correct limit but wrong accident.

Plausible as a LOCA will release activity into the containment and you would want this to be as small as possible.

Incorrect - less than 500 and LOCA. Plausible based on LOCA will release activity into containment and the value is that of XE-133 from same TS.

  • Fuse disconnect NK0311, Feeder to NN13 from NK03 opened
  • A loss of bus NN03 occured
  • The crew stabilized the plant
  • NN03 is now energized from NN15 on the bypass transformer via the static switch Based on the information given:
1. What procedure will the crew perform to correct this issue?
2. What is the OPERABILITY status of NN03?

A. 1. OFN NN-021, LOSS OF VITAL 120 VAC INSTRUMENT BUS

2. INOPERABLE B. 1. OFN NK-020, LOSS OF VITAL 125 VDC BUS NK01, NK02, NK03 AND NK04
2. INOPERABLE C. 1. OFN NN-021, LOSS OF VITAL 120 VAC INSTRUMENT BUS
2. OPERABLE D. 1. OFN NK-020, LOSS OF VITAL 125 VDC BUS NK01, NK02, NK03 AND NK04
2. OPERABLE Answer: A Answer Explanation:

We have new instrument inverters. The swing inverters can be powered from an NK (DC) source or NG (AC) source and per TS any inverter suppling an NN bus must be powered from an NK source.

Correct - Since the statement in the stem for the power source to NN15 (bypass transformer) which is NG01, this is not considered an operable line up for the instrument buses in this mode Incorrect - OFN NK-020, inoperable. This procedure is plausible since it does cover issues dealing with the NK, safeguards batteries. The stem states that a loss of power from the NK source happened so the NN was lost due to the loss of the NK. The OFN NK only deals with actual battery issues not the fuse disconnects on the busses. The inoperable part is correct.

Incorrect - OFN NN-021, operable. Correct procedure. NN15 on the bypass transformer is not operable as the power supply currently is NG01 and not an NK source per TS.

Plausible if the student is not familiar with the power supplies to the swing NN inverters and thinks this lineup is OK per TS.

Incorrect - OFN NK-020, operable.This procedure is plausible since it does cover issues dealing with the NK, safeguards batteries. The stem states that a loss of power from the NK source happened so the NN was lost due to the loss of the NK. The OFN NK only deals with actual battery issues not the fuse disconnects on the busses. Also the stem states NN15 is powered from the bypass transformer. Plausible if the student is not familiar with the power supplies to the swing NN inverters and thinks this lineup is OK per TS. Since there is two power supplies to the swing inverters the student must know which one is correct to satisfy TS OPS INITIAL NRC Page: 1 of 2 14 October 2015

  • Alarm 064C, RCS WR PRESS HI, is in
  • Alarm 033B, PZR HI PRESS DEV is in
  • Alarm 035B, PORV OPEN, is in What event is in progress AND what procedure actions will the crew take?

A. Select away from all RED train channels B. Place excess letdown in service C. Select alternate PZR level channel for control D. Place PZR master pressure controller in manual and control pressure Answer: B Answer Explanation:

If the line downstream of KA HIS-29 which is the instrument air supply line to all of containment fails then a loss of air to containment will happen. Every air operated valve in containment will go to is failure position over time. RCS pressure will rise because all letdown is isolated and PZR sprays fail closed so PZR level will be rising and when level is 5% over program the backup heaters will turn on due to a possible insurge into the PZR.

This will cause pressure to rise to the PORV setpoint and they will open to control pressure.

Correct - Loss of air to containment so place excess letdown in service. This procedure has steps to place excess letdown in service and control seal injection control PZR level.

Incorrect - PZR level channel failure select alternate level channel for control. Plausible as the student could interpret the indications given as a level channel failure which the procedure would direct the crew to select away from the failed channel.

Incorrect - PZR pressure channel failure place master controller in manual and control pressure. Plausible as the student could interpret the indications given as a pressure channel failure and the procedure would direct the crew to take manual control of the master PZR pressure controller and control pressure.

Incorrect - Loss of NN bus select away from all red train channels. Plausible as the student could interpret the indications given as a loss of the red train instrument bus and the procedure would direct the crew to select away from all red train equipment.

81 ID: 98396 Points: 1.00 The switchyard is split East and West due to grid instability which has been reported to Wolf Creek by the TSO. As the grid instability continues to get worse indicated voltage on NB01 is now 3740 and down slow.

If the above indications continue for the next 2 minutes which of the following statements is correct with regards to NE01 AND offsite circuit operability?

A. NE01 is carrying NB01 All offsite circuits are OPERABLE B. NE01 is carrying NB01 One offsite circuit is INOPERABLE C. NE01 is in STBY All offsite circuits are OPERABLE D. NE01 is in STBY One offsite circuit is INOPERABLE Answer: B Answer Explanation:

With the east and west buses split NB01 is being powered from the east bus and NB02 is being supplied by the west (startup transformer). NB01 is a 4160 V bus and 90% of that is 3744 V so anything less than that will start the degraded voltage timers to start counting down and after a total of 119 seconds will trip both the normal and alternate feeder breakers to NB01 in this case. This starts NE01 and it closes onto the bus. This doesn't make NE01 inoperable since it is performing its safety function. The offsite circuit is inoperable since the voltage supplied to the site is now too low per TS 3.8.1 and bases.

Correct - When less than 3744 V is reached the 119 second timer starts and NE01 will then start on NB01 undervoltage and take the bus. The offsite circuit is inoperable because it can't carry the NB bus. The diesel is operable because it is performing its safety function.

Incorrect - NE01 running and offsite operable. The first part is correct. The offsite circuit is not operable since it indicates low voltage by NE01 starting on degraded voltage. Plausible if the student doesn't understand the switchyard and NB01 relationship with operability.

Incorrect - NE01 in STBY offsite inoperable. The diesel is running at this point on undervoltage on NB01 due to the degraded voltage signal opening the normal and alternate feeder breakers. Plausible if the student forgets the 90% degraded voltage setpoint or time relay.

Incorrect - NE01 in STBY and offsite operable. The diesel is running at this point on undervoltage on NB01 due to the degraded voltage signal opening the normal and alternate feeder breakers. The offsite circuit is not operable since it indicates low voltage by NE01 starting on degraded voltage. Plausible if the student doesn't understand the switchyard to NB01 relationship with operability and forgets the 90% degraded voltage setpoint or time relay.

SE NI-31B is INOPERABLE Open reactor trip breakers IMMEDIATELY D. SE NI-32B is INOPERABLE Open reactor trip breakers IMMEDIATELY Answer: B Answer Explanation:

Correct - Per TS 3.3.1 table 2 SR NI are required in mode 3, 4, or 5. With one inoperable then action must be taken to restore both to operable status within 48 hours5.555556e-4 days <br />0.0133 hours <br />7.936508e-5 weeks <br />1.8264e-5 months <br /> OR rods must be inserted and reactor trip breakers opened within 49 hours5.671296e-4 days <br />0.0136 hours <br />8.101852e-5 weeks <br />1.86445e-5 months <br />. Channel checks that they both agree within 1 decade. Count rate should not have changed by a full decade with just a single bank pull.

Incorrect - SE NI-32B inoperable open trip breakers immediately. First part is correct. The procedure has the rods inserted and then trip breakers opened.

Plausible if the student confuses TS and the procedure for required actions.

Incorrect - SE NI-31B inoperable open trip breakers immediately. Indication of SR NIs should be close to the same given rods were withdrawn all over in an equal pattern. Plausible if the student thinks that this detector should have raised higher (after any startup rate has decayed off) and it did not.

Plausible if the student forgets that these status lights on the ESFAS panels will come on to show isolation was successful. Also closing the mini purge valve doesn't bring in this white header it brings in the CPIS header Incorrect - GE and Header for CTMT ISO SYS PHASE A, lit solid white. The classification is wrong but if the student doesn't follow the correct path from box 7 to 5 then 8 and just goes to 5 this will get a GE. Plausible if the student forgets that these status lights on the ESFAS panels will come on to show isolation was successful or gets on the wrong path in the trees.

B. EMG E-3, STEAM GENERATOR TUBE RUPTURE.

C. EMG E-2, FAULTED STEAM GENERATOR ISOLATION.

D. EMG E-1, LOSS OF REACTOR OR SECONDARY COOLANT.

Answer: D Answer Explanation:

The parameters given were taken from the desktop simulator for a large PZR steam space leak. The general nature of what is given is all that is needed in ES-01 to make decisions as to where to transition to so no specific values are given.

Correct - Since E-0 must have been exited prior to coming to ES-01 the first transition out is not used. E-1 is correct since PZR level is rising and no faulted SG was found. This is the last transition out of ES-01 in the RNO column Incorrect - E-3. With levels rising in all SGs this could be thought of as a rupture.

This is from the normal AFW flow that will actuate on the reactor trip and subsequent shrink of the SGs. Plausible if the student doesn't understand all the auto actuation that will take place on the trip.

Incorrect - C-0. With a loss of one emergency bus and having and OFN and an EMG for loss of power this transition could be made. Plausible if the student fails to see that only one bus is locked out and it only takes one bus to complete mitigation actions in EMG procedures.

(use the attached indications for decision basis)

A. EMG FR-Z1, RESPONSE TO HIGH CONTAINMENT PRESSURE, Red path.

Based on containment pressure.

B. EMG FR-Z1, RESPONSE TO HIGH CONTAINMENT PRESSURE, Orange path.

Based on only one containment spray pump running.

C. EMG FR-Z2, RESPONSE TO CONTAINMENT FLOODING, Orange path.

Based on containment sump level.

D. EMG FR-Z3, RESPONSE TO HIGH CONTAINMENT RADIATION LEVEL, Yellow path.

Based on containment rad levels.

Answer: C Answer Explanation:

Correct - With containment adverse and the sump level high this is the correct procedure to enter. There is only ONE procedure at Wolf Creek that deals with containment flooding and it is an orange path FR-Z2.

This procedure contains 4 steps and one is return to procedure step in effect. Indications given for this question make the student determine the status of the containment spray pumps and the fact that the CS pumps were started by the LOCA sequencer and not by the crew. This interpretation is needed to justify distractors. Then the student must determine that containment is adverse to get to the correct procedure entry.

Incorrect - FR-Z3 yellow. Conditions are met to enter this procedure on a yellow path but since the orange FR-Z2 is met procedure use and adherence has the higher level procedure enter first. Plausible since this is a correct entry but not with the orange path also met.

Incorrect - FR-Z1 red. Plausible since containment pressure is well above normal but the red path entry would be over 60 psig.

Incorrect - FR-Z1 orange. Plausible since there is one spray pump not running but this entry would be based on two spray pumps stopped or 'as least one running' per procedure.

A. Charging header pressure 2350 psig RCS pressure 2235 psig 9.5 gpm Limit the MAXIMUM flow to the seal to prevent premature seal failure.

B. Charging header pressure 2550 psig RCS pressure 2235 psig 13.8 gpm Limit the MAXIMUM flow to the seal to prevent premature seal failure.

C. Charging header pressure 2550 psig RCS pressure 2235 psig 13.8 gpm Limit the amount of flow that is diverted from the normal injection path in accident conditions.

D. Charging header pressure 2350 psig RCS pressure 2235 psig 9.5 gpm Limit the amount of flow that is diverted from the normal injection path in accident conditions.

Answer: C Answer Explanation:

Correct - The DP here is 315 and the seal injection flow given is within the acceptable region of the provided graph. The reason is out of the basis which is to limit flow diverted away from the injection.

Incorrect - 13.8 gpm, limit seal water flow. The flow number is correct. The reason is not per the TS basis flow diverted away from the normal injection path is the concern. The spec does discuss the flow to the seals to prevent damage but this is not a limit on max flow to the seal but min flow to the seal to prevent failure. Plausible if the student can use the graph but mistakes the reason.

Incorrect - 9.5 gpm, limit amount NOT going to injection. The DP here is 115 so the max would be close to 8.5 gpm. The reason is correct. Plausible if the student mis-uses the graph and understands the basis.

Q88, Rev 1 ID: 98403 Points: 1.00 Given the following:

  • Reactor power was 100%
  • SI auto actuated
  • CTMT pressure peaked at 32 psig
  • Crew entered the appropriate procedures
  • Crew transitioned to EMG ES-12, TRANSFER TO COLD LEG RECIRCULATION
  • Crew has completed EMG ES-12
  • Both RHR pumps are now indicating fluctuating flow and amps
1. What is the current condition of the Containment Spray pumps?
2. What procedure will the crew transition to?

A. 1. Both spray pumps are running

2. EMG C-13, CONTROL ROOM RESPONSE TO SUMP BLOCKAGE B. 1. Both spray pumps are stopped
2. EMG C-13, CONTROL ROOM RESPONSE TO SUMP BLOCKAGE C. 1. Both spray pumps are stopped
2. EMG C-11, LOSS OF EMERGENCY COOLANT RECIRCULATION D. 1. Both spray pumps are running
2. EMG C-11, LOSS OF EMERGENCY COOLANT RECIRCULATION Answer: A Answer Explanation:

Correct - ES-12 has no step to stop containment spray pumps with RWST level greater than 6% (foldout page). It does have the spray pumps aligned to the sump if RWST level is less than 12%. C-13 will be entered based on RHR pump flow.

Incorrect - ES-13 and stopped. ES-12 has no step to stop containment spray pumps with RWST level greater than 6%. It does have the spray pumps aligned to the sump if RWST level is less than 12%. Plausible if the student uses foldout page of ES-12 to stop pumps.

Incorrect - C-11 and running. The running is correct while in ES-12 but a transition to C-11 would only be made if the valves to RHR could not be placed in the correct alignment.

Plausible if the student sees this as a valve problem and not a loss of suction due to blockage.

Incorrect - C-11 and stopped. ES-12 has no step to stop spray pumps with RWST level greater than 6%. Plausible if the student sees this as a valve problem and not a loss of suction due to blockage.

Meets KA asks for procedure usage to correct a loss of containment spray while in recirc mode due to a loss of suction SRO knowledge since this question sets up a time line of events and after the given procedure is complete it asks the status of equipment (SRO knowledge of procedure steps) and then asks what procedure the crew will transition to next (SRO knowledge based on assessment of conditions given).

2) EMG E-1, LOSS OF REACTOR OR SECONDARY COOLANT
3) 'C' S/G steam flow will be isolated AND ECCS flow WILL be reduced B. 1) Main Steam Line break in Containment

2) EMG E-2, FAULTED STEAM GENERATOR ISOLATION
3) 'C' S/G steam flow will be isolated AND ECCS flow WILL NOT be reduced Answer: D Rev 0

Answer Explanation:

All data was gathered from running this on the desk top simulator with AFW flow throttled at event initiation, a full feedline break inside containment, and no other operator actions. This would be consistent with working through E-0 since all actions up to diagnostics have no effect on the parameters used here.

Correct - Per E-0 C SG is faulted at step 16 a transition is made to E-2. The diagnosis key is early steam flow from all but C SG and C SG WR level being lower than all the rest with no indicated steam flow which points at the feed line break. At first a feed line break will look like a steam break until the feed ring is uncovered and then the SG pressure will drop rapidly and then the diagnosis can be made. E-2 will isolate all the flow from and feed to the SG. At the end of E-2 the operator is asked if ECCS flow should be reduced based on indications.

Since the RCS pressure is still lowering a transition is made to E-1 and when the SG blows dry and the pressure stabilizes out then ECCS flow can be reduced.

This is the last step of E-2.

Incorrect - steam line break, E-1, AFW iso. The steam line break in containment would drop SG pressure immediately. E-1 would not be the correct procedure entry if there was a main steam line break in containment. AFW will be isolated in E-0. Plausible if the student misdiagnosis this event.

Incorrect - feed line break, E-1, SG C iso. Correct diagnosis but E-1 is not the correct transition. Also ECCS flow will not be reduced since RCS pressure is still lowering. Plausible if the student misdiagnosis the event.

Incorrect - steam line break, E-2, AFW iso. The steam line break in containment would drop SG pressure immediately. E-2 is the correct procedure. AFW will be isolated in E-0 not E-2, only the steam flow from the C SG to the TDAFWP.

Plausible if the student misdiagnosis the event.

Meets KA asks for ability to predict the impact of a main feed line break inside containment and then select the correct procedure to mitigate the event and control the consequences.

SRO knowledge since it asks for specific procedure step actions i.e. not reducing ECCS flow.

The crew is performing STS KJ-005A, MANUAL/AUTO START, SYNC AND LOADING OF EDG NE01 The RO is ready to close the output breaker for NE01 in order to parallel it with NB01 (off site)

NB01 voltage is indicating 4160 VAC and frequency is indication 60.1 Hz NE01 voltage is indicating 4080 VAC and frequency is indicating 60.3 Hz What action is required to complete the paralleling operation of NE01 to NB01?

Under these conditions, a copy of which procedure is required to be kept with the RO and NSO to keep NE01 OPERABLE during this surveillance run?

A. 1. Lower NE01 frequency.

2. OFN NB-042, LOSS OF OFFSITE POWER TO NB01(NB02) WITH EDG PARALLELED.

B. 1. Lower NE01 frequency.

2. SYS KJ-123, POST MAINTENANCE RUN OF EMERGENCY DIESEL GENERATOR 'A'.

C. 1. Raise NE01 voltage.

2. SYS KJ-123, POST MAINTENANCE RUN OF EMERGENCY DIESEL GENERATOR 'A'.

D. 1. Raise NE01 voltage.

2. OFN NB-042, LOSS OF OFFSITE POWER TO NB01(NB02) WITH EDG PARALLELED.

Answer: D Answer Explanation:

Correct - Per SYS KJ-123 the incoming voltage needs to be within +/- 50 volts to parallel the diesel. STS KJ-005A 4.11.1 states that if individuals and a copy of OFN NB-042 are present during the test the EDG remains operable.

Incorrect - raise voltage copy of SYS. The SYS is only the test procedure after maintenance and the OFN is required at the location and in the control room for the EDG to remain operable. Plausible if the student mistakes the contents of the SYS with the requirement to have the OFN.

Incorrect - lower frequency copy of OFN. Plausible if the student confuses the starting parameter requirements for the EDG. The OFN is correct to have at the locations.

Incorrect - lower frequency copy of SYS. Plausible if the student confuses the starting parameter requirements for the EDG. Also the SYS is only the test procedure after maintenance and the OFN is required at the location and in the control room for the EDG to remain operable.

Correct - OFN RP-017 is the only procedure that will mitigate this event since this is a fire in the control room. Since the notes for the procedure and the emergency plant state that the isolate switches must be in iso within 15 minutes and the time line shows more than that the SAE is called.

Incorrect - OFN RP-017 and Alert. Correct procedure but since the switches were not placed correctly within 15 minutes the alert is to low. Plausible if the student fails to see the time the switches were moved and just classifies off the notes and the control room evacuation Incorrect - OFN RP-013 and SAE. This procedure will be entered if the control room is evacuated for reasons OTHER than fire so this procedure will not mitigate this event. SAE is correct. Plausible if the student knows the correct classification but misses that a fire has occurred.

Incorrect - OFN RP-013 and Alert. This procedure will be entered if the control room is evacuated for reasons OTHER than fire so this procedure will not mitigate this event. Since the switches were not placed correctly within 15 minutes the alert is too low. Plausible if the student misses the fire and the switches.

Core off load is in progress with just over half of the assemblies remaining in the vessel The Upender is moving to the vertical position on the Refuel Pool side A fuel assembly is on the hoist and has just been withdrawn from the core Refuel Pool level suddenly begins to lower rapidly The Control Room reports that the 'A' S/G Nozzle Dam has failed Which of the following actions will the Fuel Handling SRO will direct?

A. Lower the fuel assembly into the vessel Send the Fuel Transfer Cart to the SFP B. Place the fuel assembly in the Upender Send the Fuel Transfer Cart to the SFP C. Lower the fuel assembly into the vessel Leave the Fuel Transfer Cart in the Refueling Pool D. Place the fuel assembly in the Upender Leave the Fuel Transfer Cart in the Refueling Pool Answer: A Answer Explanation:

Fuel handling is an SRO only function at Wolf Creek.

Correct - Per the OFN KE-018, FUEL HANDLING ACCIDENT, there are multiple actions the fuel handling SRO will perform. This list is all correct for what is required to completed. The fuel transfer cart must be on the SFP side or the fuel transfer gate valve cannot be closed. The fuel assembly is placed back in the only safe location on the refuel pool side. The transfer tube gate is closed to prevent losing SFP level. The equipment hatch is closed to regain containment integrity for this event.

Incorrect - Place the fuel assembly in the upender, send the cart to the SFP.

Plausible if the student does not understand the safe locations to place the fuel assembly, the rest is correct.

Incorrect - Leave the cart in the refuel pool, ensure the gate is closed. Plausible if the student does not understand that the cart has a cable connected to it that goes back to the SFP side stopping the gate valve from being closed.

Incorrect - leave the cart in the refuel pool, place the fuel assembly in the upender. Plausible if the student does not understand the safe locations to place the fuel assembly or where to put the transfer cart.

Meets KA asks if the student understands how the refueling process goes as far as sequence of events (if the fuel element is on the hoist and just been raised it is still over the vessel, upender is just coming to the upright position must understand where it was and were it is going to know what is next). Knowing what to do in this case is based on the prediction that level will drop far enough to force the action specified so that design limits for fuel cooling and radiation shielding are not exceeded.

SRO knowledge asks for procedure step recall. The actions taken are performed by the refuel SRO inside containment (as directed by the CRS).

98 ID: 98413 Points: 1.00 Given the following plant conditions:

A LOCA has occurred A General Emergency has been declared and the TSC has been activated A two man repair team was dispatched from the TSC into the Aux Building for emergency repairs on a valve to stop the release Due to an accident, both repair team members have been injured, one with a life threatening head injury

1. What is the maximum allowed dose (TEDE) that can be authorized for a rescue team in accordance with EPP 06-013, EXPOSURE CONTROL AND PERSONNEL PROTECTION?

AND

2. Under the conditions given, who approves this dose?

1 2 A. 25 rem Shift Manager B. 10 rem Shift Manager C. 10 rem Site Emergency Manager D. 25 rem Site Emergency Manager Answer: D Answer Explanation:

Correct - This is a non delegatable duty of the site emergency manager and since the repair team was sent from the TSC the shift manager is no longer the emergency manager. The 25 rem TEDE is per procedure.

Incorrect - 25 rem shift manager. Dose is correct but since the TSC is active the shift manager cannot make this determination, only the site emergency manager.

Plausible if the student doesn't know the non delegatable duties.

Incorrect - 10 rem site emergency manager. Approval is correct but the dose is less than allowed by procedure. Plausible if the student doesn't know the dose limits for life saving.

Incorrect - 10 rem shift manager. Dose is less than allowed by procedure and approval is non delegatable to shift manager since the TSC is active. Plausible if the student doesn't know the live saving dose limits or the non delegatable approvals.

Meets KA asks what rad dose is the limit for emergencies. Knowing this limit and who can authorize it is knowledge of the rad hazards that can arise during emergencies.

Q99, Rev 1 ID: 98414 Points: 1.00 The crew is recovering from a reactor trip that occurred 5 minutes ago due to an I&C technician inadvertently manipulating incorrect switches in the back of the Control Room. The following indications are noted:

  • RCS pressure 2235 psig stable
  • RCS temperature 555°F lowering at 2°F per minute (reason unknown)
  • RCS T ~1 to 2 °F
  • PZR level 26% stable
  • AFW flow 100,000 lbm/hr - throttled per fold out page
  • MSIVs Closed Assuming the above conditions do NOT change over the next 35 minutes which of the following actions will be taken?

A. Direct an SI and transition to EMG E-0, REACTOR TRIP OR SAFETY INJECTION.

B. Transition to EMG FR H-1, RESPONSE TO LOSS OF SECONDARY HEAT SINK.

C. Transition to OFN BG-009, EMERGENCY BORATION, then return to EMG ES-02 step in effect.

D. Direct the RO to perform OFN BG-009, EMERGENCY BORATION, while the CRS and the BOP continue with EMG ES-02.

Answer: D Answer Explanation:

SRO because to answer you have to know the procedure content (steps) to understand that the emergency boration will take place concurrently with the EMG in effect. Comes from AP 15C-003 Correct - Per step 2, continuous action step, if temperature lowers to less than 530°F and no SI (that is why we are in ES-01) then borate so you don't lose SDM. This is how OFN's and EMG's are performed together.

Incorrect - transition to OFN BG-009. This procedure is needed due to the cooldown but ES-02 directs in step 2 RNO that both procedures are to be completed concurrently.

Plausible if the student doesn't know about the temperature requirement AND the use of concurrent OFN and EMG.

Incorrect - direct an SI and transition to E-0. With temperature lowering a jump in logic could be made that will also lower pressure and PZR level which would require an SI. No other items are broke so PZR heaters will maintain pressure and charging will maintain level. Plausible if the student assumes other things are broke outside of what the stem states.

Incorrect - transition to FR H-1. With AFW flow less than 270,000 lbm/hr an assumption could be made that more flow is needed but since flow was throttled per fold out page then SG levels, at least one, must be over 6% NR. Plausible if the student doesn't understand why AFW flow was throttled.

100 ID: 98415 Points: 1.00 The unit is operating at 100% power when a RED first out for OTT comes in.

The alarm is verified correct but the reactor does NOT trip.

The CRS directs entry into EMG FR-S1, RESPONSE TO NUCLEAR POWER GENERATION / ATWS.

The crew performs their immediate actions.

The crew is now verifying the reactor and turbine trip when an SI occurs.

Which of the following statements is correct with regards to what action(s) the CRS will direct next AND what is the basis for this action?

A. Direct the RO to return to EMG E-0, REACTOR TRIP OR SAFETY INJECTION, and perform steps 1-7, while the BOP and the CRS continue with EMG FR-S1.

This is to verify the emergency borate flow remains above 30 gpm until SDM is determined.

B. Direct the RO to return to EMG E-0, REACTOR TRIP OR SAFETY INJECTION, and perform steps 1-7, while the BOP and the CRS continue with EMG FR-S1.

This action is to verify that all of the SI actuated equipment has actuated.

C. Continue with the EMG FR-S1 until a transition is made back to EMG E-0 step

1. This action is to verify that all of the SI actuated equipment has actuated.

D. Continue with EMG FR-S1 until a transition is made back to EMG E-0 step 1.

This is to verify the emergency borate flow remains above 30 gpm until SDM is determined.

Answer: B Answer Explanation:

Correct - At the step the crew is in they have passed the continuous action step to check for SI. This step sends the crew to perform the first 7 steps of E-0 and then when the CRS completes FR-S1 by moving out to step 25 and 27 a transition will be made to E-0 step 8 since the RO has completed the auto SI verification steps. The bases is there for the SI verification, all the equipment functioned properly and the SI is valid.

Incorrect - Direct the RO back to E-0 and verify emergency boration flow is above 30 gpm. The first part is correct the crew will send an operator back to E-0 to verify the SI. The bases is wrong because even if the emergency boration was started and flow verified prior to the SI when the SI happens the BA transfer pumps are load shed, the emergency borate valve is load shed, and the emergency borate flow goes to 0. This is because the SI is now injecting not the emergency flow path. Plausible if the student doesn't understand what actions take place on the SI.

Incorrect - Continue with FR-S1 and to verify SI. If the crew does not send an operator back to E-0 and then makes it to step 27 they could transition to E-0 at step 1 or step 8, the distinction is whether SI has occurred or not. The verification of the SI must be completed by either the operator sent back to perform it or the crew. The second part is correct to verify the SI. Plausible if the student understands the verification part but doesn't catch the fact that the first part is sending them back to step 1 so the verification will not be made.

Incorrect - Continue with FR-S1 and verify emergency borate flow above 30 gpm.

If the crew does not send an operator back to E-0 and then makes it to step 27 they will transition to E-0 at step 1 or step 8. The verification of the SI must be completed by either the operator sent back to perform it or the crew. The bases is wrong because even if the emergency boration was started and flow verified prior to the SI when the SI happens the BA transfer pumps are load shed, the emergency borate valve is load shed, and the emergency borate flow goes to 0.

This is because the SI is now injecting not the emergency flow path. Plausible if the student doesn't understand what actions take place on the SI and forgets that the SI verification steps must be completed.

Meets KA asks SRO knowledge because it asks about knowledge of the content of the procedure, the procedure steps and sequence must be known to understand what has been completed and what has not.
