NOTES FOR TABLE 3 ~ 2 A

l.

whenever the respective functions are required to be operable, there shall be two operable or tripped trip systems for each function.

I If the first column cannot be met cr one of the trip

systems, that trip system or logic for that function shall be tripped tor the appropriate action listed below shall be taken)

If the column cannot be met for all trip systems, the appropriate action listed belo~ shall. be taken.

A.

Initiate an orderly shutdown and have the reactor in

F.

The handling of spent fuel will be prohibited and all

~

operations over spent fuels and open reactor wells shall be prohibited.

G.

Isolate the reactor building and start the standby gas treatment system.

H.

. Immediately perform a logic system functional test on the logic in the other trip systems and daily thereafter not to exceed 7 days.

I DELETE J.

Withdraw TIP.

K L.

Manually isolate the affected lines.

Refer to section Q.2. E for the requirements of an inoperable system.

If one SGTS train is inoperable take actions H or action A and F. If two SGTS trains are inoperable take actions A and F.

2.

Mhen it is determined that a channel is failed in the unsafe condition, the other channels that monitor the same variable shall be functionally tested immediately before the trip system or logic for that function is tripped.

The trip system or the logic for that function may remain untripped for short periods of time to allow functional testing of the other trip system or l'ogic for that function.

Refer to Table 3.7.A and its notes for a listing of Xsolation Valve Groups and their initiating signals.

11.

A channel may be placed in an inoperable status for.up to Cour hours for required surveillance/maintenance without placing the trip system in the tripped condition provided at least one OPERABLK channel in the same trip system is monitoring that parameter.

12.

A channel contains four sensors, all of which must be operable for the channe1 to be operable.

Zn the event that normal ventilation is unavailable in the main steam line tunnel, the high temperature channels may be bypassed for a period of not to exceed four hours.

During. periods when normal ventilation is not available, such as during the performance of secondary containment leak rate tests, the control room indicators of the affected space temperatures shall be monitored for indications of small steam leaks.

Zn the event of rapid. increases in temperature (indicative of steam line break),

the operator shall promptly close the main steam line isolation valves.

The nomina1 serpoints for alarm and reactor trip (L.5 and 3.0 times background, respectively) are established based on the no..al baci.-

grousd at Evil power.

The allowable setpoints for aia~ and reactor trip are 1.2-1.8 and 2.4-3.6 thos background, respec ively.

Instrument checks shall be performed in accordance vith the definition of Instrument Check (sec section 1.0, Definitions).

An instrument check is not applicablc to a particular sctpoint, such as Upscale, but is a qualitative check that the instrument is behaving and/or indicating in an acceptable manner for thc particular plant condition.

Instrument check is included in this table for convenience and to indicate that an Instrument Check will be performed on the instrument.

Instrument checks arc not required vhcn these instruments are not required to be operable or are tripped.

Calibraticn frequency shall be ance/year.

DELETE Portion of the logic is functionally tested during outage only.

The detector vill be inserted during each operating cycle ind, the proper amount of travel into the core verified.

?unctional test villconsist of applying simulated inputs (scc note 3).

Local alarm lights representing upscale and downscale trips vill be verified, but no rod block vill be produced at this time.

The inoperative trip vill be initiated to produce a rod block (SR@ and IRM inoperative also bypassed vith the mode svitch in RUN).

The functions that cannot be verified to produce a rod block directly vill be verified during the operating cycle.
