SIMULATION FACILITY REPORT Faci 1 ity Licensee:
Pal o Verde Nucl ear Generating Stati on Facility Docket No.:
50-528/529/530 Operating Tests Administered on:
October 14, 1992 (Including observations of October 15, 1992 during inspection.)
This form is to be used only to report observations.
These observations do not constitute audit or inspection findings and are not, without further verification and review, indicative of non-compliance with 10 CFR 55.45(b).
These observations do not affect NRC certification or approval of the simulation facility other than to provide information which may be used in future evaluations.
No licensee action is required in response to these observations.
During the conduct of the simulator portion of the operating tests, the following items were observed (if none, so state):
ITEN DESCRIPTION Simulator General Failure during exam preparation and immediately following a scenario used during an EOP verification.
The simulator experienced a General Failure during an exam scenario preparation effort.
The work effort was complete and the examiners were finished with the preparation.
The simulator also experienced a similar event shortly after an EOP verification exercise conducted for an inspection.
The apparent cause was due to the scenario extending beyond the modeling capabilities of the software.
