The defined terms of this section appear in capitalized type and are applicable throughout these Technical Specifications and Bases.
Term Definition ACTIONS ACTIONS shall be that part of a Specification that prescribes Required Actions to be taken under designated Conditions within specified Completion Times.
ACTUATION LOGIC TEST An ACTUATION LOGIC TEST shall be the application of various simulated or actual input combinations in conjunction with each possible interlock logic state required for OPERABILITY of a logic circuit and the verification of the required logic output. The ACTUATION LOGIC TEST may be performed by means of any series of sequential, overlapping, or total steps.
AXIAL FLUX DIFFERENCE AFD shall be the difference in normalized flux signals (AFD) between the top and bottom halves of a two-section excore neutron detector.
CHANNEL CALIBRATION A CHANNEL CALIBRATION shall be the adjustment, as necessary, of the channel output such that it responds within the necessary range and accuracy to known values of the parameter that the channel monitors. The CHANNEL CALIBRATION shall encompass all devices in the channel required for OPERABILITY.
Calibration of instrument channels with resistance temperature detector (RTD), thermocouple, or reactor coolant pump speed sensors may consist of an inplace qualitative assessment of sensor behavior and normal calibration of the remaining adjustable devices in the channel. The CHANNEL CALIBRATION may be performed by means of any series of sequential, overlapping, or total channel steps.

Technical Specifications Programs and Manuals 5.5 5.5 Programs and Manuals 5.5.14 Setpoint Program (SP)
- a. The Setpoint Program (SP) implements the regulatory requirement of 10 CFR 50.36(c)(1)(ii)(A) that technical specifications will include items in the category of limiting safety system settings (LSSS), which are settings for automatic protective devices related to those variables having significant safety functions.
- b. The Nominal Trip Setpoint (NTS), As-Found Tolerance (AFT), and As-Left Tolerance (ALT) for each Technical Specification required automatic protection instrumentation function shall be calculated in conformance with WCAP-16361-P, Westinghouse Setpoint Methodology for Protection Systems - AP1000, February 2011.
- c. For each Technical Specification required automatic protection instrumentation function, performance of a CHANNEL CALIBRATION surveillance in accordance with the Setpoint Program shall include the following:
- 1. The as-found value of the instrument channel trip setting shall be compared with the previously recorded as-left value.
- i. If the as-found value of the instrument channel trip setting differs from the previously recorded as-left value by more than the pre-defined test acceptance criteria band (i.e., the specified AFT),
then the instrument channel shall be evaluated to verify that it is functioning in accordance with its design basis before declaring the surveillance requirement met and returning the instrument channel to service. An Instrument Channel is determined to be functioning in accordance with its design basis if it can be set to within the ALT.
This as-found condition shall be entered into the plants corrective action program.
ii. If the as-found value of the instrument channel trip setting is less conservative than the specified AFT, the surveillance requirement is not met and the instrument channel shall be immediately declared inoperable.
