1.0 INTRODUCTION
In March of 1977, the NRC requested several utilities with Westinghouse Nuclear Steam Supply Systems to reply to a series of questions concerning the methodology for determining instrument setpoints. A statistical methodology was developed in response to those questions with a corresponding defense of the technique used in determining the overall allowance for each setpoint.
The basic underlying assumption used is that several of the error components and their parameter assumptions act independently, e.g., [
]****. This allows the use of a statistical summation of the various breakdown components instead of a strictly arithmetic summation. A direct benefit of the use of this technique is increased margin in the total allowance. For those parameter assumptions known to be interactive, the technique uses the normal, conservative approach, arithmetic summation, to form independent quantities, e.g., [
]***". An explanation of the overall approach is provided in Section 2.0.
Section 3.0 provides a description, or definition, of each of the various components in the setpoint parameter breakdown, thus insuring a clear understanding of the breakdown. Also provided is a detailed example of each setpoint margin calculation demonstrating the technique and noting how each parameter value is derived. For those protection functions using both Ver.itrak and Rosemount transmitters, data is provided for both cases. In nearly all cases, significant margin exists between the statistical summation and the total allowance.
Section 4.0 notes what the current (read NRC) Tcchnical Specifications use for setpoints and an explanation of the impact of the statistical approach on them. Detailed examples of how to determine the Technical Specification setpoint values are also provided. An Appendix is provided noting a recommended set of Technical Specifications using the plant specific data in the statistical approach. For those protection functions using both Veritrak and Rosemount transmitters, only the most limiting case is provided, i

(WESTINGHOUSE PROPRIETARY CLASS 3) 2.0 COMBINATION OF ERROR COMPONENTS 2.1 METHODOLOGY The methodology used to combine the error components for a channel is basically the appropriate statistical combination of those groups of components which are statistically independent, i.e., not interactive. Those errors which are not independent are placed arithmetically into groups. The groups themselves are independent effects which can then be systematically combined.
The methodology used for this combination is not new. Basically it is the
[ ]+ which has been utilized in other Westinghouse reports. This technique, or other statistical approaches of a similar nature, have been used in WCAP-10395 and WCAP-8567( '. It should be noted that WCAP-8567 has been approved by the NRC Staff thus noting the acceptability of statistical techniques for the application requested. It should also be recognized that ANSI, the American Nuclear Society, and the Instrument Society of America approve of the use of probabilistic techniques in determining safety-related setpoints(3)(4) Thus it can be seen that the use of statistical approaches in analysis techniques is becoming more and more widespread.
The relationship between the error components and the total statistical error allowance for a channel is,

allowances are interactive and thus not independent. The (
)*" is not necessarily considered interactive with all other parameters, but as an additional degree of conservatism is added to the statistical sum. It should be noted that for this document it was assumed that the accuracy effect on a channel due to cable degradation in an accident environment will be less than 0.1 percent of span. This impact has been considered negligible and is not factored into the analysis. An error due to this cause found to be in excess of 0.1 percent of span must be directly added as an environmental error.
The Westinghouse setpoint methodology results in a value with a 95 percent With the exception of Process probability with a high confidence level.
Measurement Accuracy, Rack Drift, and Sensor Drift, all uncertainities assumed are the extremes of the ranges of the various parameters, i.e., are better than 2a values. Rack Drift and Sensor Drift are assumed, based on a survey of reported plant LERs, and with Process Measurement Accuracy are considered as conservative values.

(EESTINGHOUSE PROPRIETARY CLASS 3) 2.2 SENSOR ALLOWANCES Four parameters are considered to be sensor allowances. SCA, SD, STE, and SPE (see Table 3-16). Of these four parameters, two are considered to be statistically independent. [ ]***#, and two are considered interactive [ ]***C .

(Eq. 2.2)
= 1.32 percent w
Thus it can be seen that the approach represented by Equation 2.1 which l
accounts for interactive parameters results in a more conservative summation l

2.3 RACK ALLOWANCES Four parameters, as noted by Table 3-16, are considered to be rack allowances, RCA, RC5A, RTE, and RD. Three of these parameters are considered to be interactive (for much the same reason outlined for sensors in 2.2), [

J+. Based on this logic, these three factors have been added to form an independent group.
This group is then factored into Equation 2.1. The impact of this approach (formation of an independent group based on interactive components) is significant. For the same channel using the same approach outlined in Equations 2.1 and 2.2 the following results are reached:
+a,b,c using Equation 2.1 the result is;
- . + a,c
= 1.82 percent Assuming no interactive ef fects for any of the parameters yields the following less conservative results;
. +a.c (Eq. 2.3)
= 1.25 percent l Thus the impact of the use of Equation 2.1 is even greater in the area of rack effects than for the sensor. Theref ore, accounting f or interactive ef f ects in the statistical treatment of these allowances insures a conservative result.
51890:10/091885 2-5
(EESTINGHOUSE PROPRIETARY CLASS 3) 2.4 PROCESS ALLOWANCES Finally, the PMA and PEA parameters are considered to be independent of both sensor and rack parameters. PMA provides allowances for the non-instrument related ef fects, e.g., neutron flux, calorimetric power error assumptions, fluid density changes, and temperature stratification assumptions. PMA may consist of more than one independent error allowance. PEA accounts for errors due to metering devices, such as elbows and venturis. Thus, these parameters have been statistically factored into Equation 2.1.

(WESTINGHOUSE PROPRIETARY CLASS 3) 3.0 PROTECTION SYSTEM SETPOINT METHODOLOGY 3.1 MARGIN CALCULATION As noted in Section One, Westinghouse utilizes a statistical summation of the various components of the channel breakdown. This approach is valid where no dependency is present. An arithmetic summation is required where an interaction between two parameters exists, Section Two provides a more detailed explanation of this approach. The equation used to determine the margin, and thus the acceptability of the parameter values used, is:
, .ac
+
(Eq. 3.1) where:
TA = Total Allowance (Safety Analysis Limit - Nominal Trip Setpoint), and all other parameters are as defined for Equation 2.1.
Tables 3-1 through 3-15 provide individual channel breakdown and channel statistical allowance calculations for all protection functions utilizing 7300 process rack equipment. Table 3-16 provides a summary of the previous 15 tables and includes analysis and technical specification values, total allowance and margin.
t 3.2 DEFINITIONS FOR PROTECTION SYSTEM SETPOINT TOLERANCES To insure a clear understanding of the channel breakdown used in this report, the following definitions are noted:
- 1. Trio Accu;;cy The tolerance band containing the highest expected value of the dif ference between (a) the desired trip point value of a process variable and (b) the 51890:1D/091785 3-1
(WESTINGHOUSE PROPRIETARY C!. ASS 3) actual value at which a comparator trips (and thus actuates some desired result). This is the tolerance band, in percent of span, within which the complete channel must perform its intended trip function. It includes comparator setting accuracy, channel accuracy (including the sensor) for each input, and environmental effects on the rack-mounted electronics. It comprises all instrumentation errors; however, it does not include process measurement accuracy.
- 2. Process Measurement Accuracy Includes plant variable measurement errors up to but not including the sensor. Examples are the effect of fluid stratification on temperature measurements and the effect of changing fluid density on level measurements.
- 3. Actuation Accuracy Synonymous with trip accuracy, but used where the word ' trip" does n-t apply.
- 4. Indication Accuracy The tolerance band containing the highest expected value of the difference between (a) the value of a process variable read on an indicator or recorder and (b) the actual value of that process variable. An indication It includes channel accuracy, must fall within this tolerance band.
accuracy of readout devices, and rack environmental effects, but not process measurement accuracy such as fluid stratification. It also assumes a controlled environment for the readout device. -
- 5. , Channel Accuracy ,
The accuracy of an analog channel which includes the accuracy of the primary element and/or transmitter and modules in the chain where 3-2 51890:10/091785
(WEST 1NGHOUSE PROPRIETARY CLASS 3) calibration of modules intermediate in a chain is allowed to compensate for errors in other modules of the chain. Rack environmental elfects are not included here to avoid duplication due to dual inputs, however, normal environmental offects on field mounted hardware is included.
- 6. Sensor Allowable Deviation The accuracy that can be expected in the field. It includes drift, temperature effects, field calibration and for the case of d/p transmitters, an allowance for the ef fect of static pressure variations.
The tolerances are as follows:
- a. Reference (calibration) accuracy - [ ]*"' percent unless other data indicates more inaccuracy. This accuracy is the SAMA reference accuracy as defined in SAMA standard PMC 20.1-1973( }.
- b. Temperature effect - [ ]*"' percent based on a nominal temperature cecificient of [ ]* percent /100*F and a maximum assumed change of 50*F.
- c. Pressure effect - usually calibrated out because pressure is constant. If not constant, nominal [ ]* percent is used.
Present data indicates a static pressure effect of approximately
[ ]**' percent /1000 psi.
- d. Drift - change in input-output relationship over a period of time at reference conditions (e.g., [ ]* -
[ ]**' of span).

- 7. Rack Allowable Deviation The tolerances are as follows:
- a. Rack Calibration Accuracy The accuracy that can be expected during a calibration at reference conditions. This accuracy is the SAMA reference accuracy as defined in SAMA standard PMC 20.1-1973UI. This includes all modules in a rack and is a total of [ ]**' percent of span assuming the chain of modules is tuned to this accuracy. For simple loops where a power supply (not used as a converter) is the only rack module, this accuracy may L:. ignored. All rack modules individually must have a reference accuracy within [ ]* percent.
- b. Rack Environmental Effects Includes effects of temperature, humidity, voltage and frequency An accuracy of changes of which temperature is the most significant.
[ ]**' percent is used which considers a nominal ambient temperature of 70*F with extremes to 40*F and 120*F for short periods of time.
- c. Rack Drif t (instrument channel drif t) - change in input-output relationship over a period of time at reference conditions (e.g.,
[ ]## ) - t1 percent of span.
- d. Comparator Settino Accuracy Assuming an exact electronic input, (note that the " channel accuracy" takes care of deviations from this ideal), the tolerance on the precision with which a comparator trip value (1) Scientific Apparatus Manufactureres Association, Standard PMC 20.1-1973, " Process Measurement and Control Technology".

(WESTINGHOUSE PROPRIETARY CLASS 3) can be set, within such practical constraints as time and offcrt expended in making the setting.
The tolerances are as follows:
(a) Fixed setpoint with a single input - [ ]**' percent accuracy. This assumes that comparator nonlinearities are compensated by the setpoint.
(b) Dual input - an additional [ ]+a,b.c percent must be added for comparator nonlinearities between two inputs. Total

Note: The following four definitions are currently used in the Standardized Technical Specifications (STS).
- 8. Nominal Safety System Settina 4
The desired setpoint for the variable. Initial calibration and subsequent 4
recalibrations should be made at the nominal safety system setting (" Trip Setpoint" in STS).
- 9. Limitina Safety System Setting A setting chosen to prevent exceeding a Safety Analysis Limit (" Allowable Yalues" in STS). Violation of this setting represents an STS violation.
- 10. Allowance f or Instrument channel Orif t The difference between (8) and (9) taken in the conservative direction.

With the exception of Process Measurement Accuracy, Rack Drift and Sensor Orift, all uncertainties assumed are the extremes of the ranges of the various parameters, i.e., are better than 2e values. Rack Orift and Sensor Drif t are assumed, based on a survey of reported plant LERs, and with Process Measurement Accuracy are considered as conservative values.
3.4 ROSEMOUNT TRANSMITTER CALCULATIONS In addition to the Veritrak transmitters supplied by Westinghouse, Northeast utilities Service Company has utilized Rosemount transmitters for many of the I protection functions. Westinghouse has determined the instrument uncertainties for SCA, SPE, STE, and SD based on Rosemount Product Data Sheets 2388 (1153 series 0), 2302 (1153 series 5), and 2514 (1154) which were supplied to Westinghouse via Stone and Webster Engineering Corporaton letters NES-35935 (7/19/84), NES-32874 (8/16/83), and NES-37613 (2/18/85). In addition, Westinghouse received explicit instructions concerning the determination of the Environmental Allowance for these transmitters, NES-36896 (11/19/84), NES-37085 (12/13/84), and NES-37613 (2/18/85). Westinghouse has calculated these values in accordance with these instructions.

(WESTINGHOUSE PROPRIETARY CLASS 3) l TA8LE 3-19 STEAM GENERATOR LEVEL DENSITY VARIATIONS Because of density variations with load due to changes in recirculation, it is impossible without some form of compensation to have the same accuracy under all load conditions. In the past the recommended calibration has been at 50 percent power conditions. Approximate errors at 0 percent and 100 percent water level readings and also for nominal trip points of 10 percent and 70 percent level are listed below for a typical 50 percent power condition calibration. This is a general case and will change somewhat f rom plant to plant. These errors are only from density changes and do not reflect channel accuracies, trip accuracies or indicated accuracies which has been defined as a AP measurement only.III I INDICATED LEVEL (50 Percent Power Calibration) 0 10 70 100 percent percent percent percent

4.1 CURRENT USE The Standardized Technical Specifications (STS) as used for Westinghouse type plant designs (see NUREG-0452, Revision 4) utilizes a two column format for the RPS and ESF system. This format recognizes that the setpoint channel breakdown, as presented in Figure 4-1, allows for a certain amount of rack drift. The intent of this format is to reduce the number of Licensee Event It appears that Reports (LERs) in the area of instrumentation setpoint drift.

J 4.2 WESTINGHOUSE STATISTICAL SETPOINT METHODOLOGY FOR STS SETPOINTS Recognizing that besides rack drif t the plant also experiences sensor drif t, a different approach to technical specificatjon setpoints, that is somewhat more sophisticated, is used today. This, methodology accounts for two additional factors seen in the plant during periodic surveillance, 1) interactive effects for both sensors and rack and, 2) sensor drif t ef f ects.

measured" value exceeds the " trigger value", the actual numbers should be used in the calculation described in Section 4.2.3.
This means that all the instrument technician has to do during the 31 day periodic surveillance is determine the value of the bistable trip setpoint, verify that it is less than the STS Allowable Value, and does not have to account for any additional effects. The same approach is used for the sensor, i.e., the 'as measured" value is used when required. Tables 4-1 and 4-2 show the current STS setpoint philosophy (NUREG-0452, Revision 4) and the Westinghouse rack allowance (for use on 31 day surveillance only). A comparison of the two different Allowable Values will show the net gain of the Westinghouse version.
4.2.2 INCLUSION OF "AS MEASURED
- SENSOR ALLOWANCE If the approach used by Westinghouse was a straight arithmetic sum, sensor allowances for drif t would also be straight forward, i.e., a three column setpoint methodology. However, the use of the statistical sunnation requires a somewhat more complicated approach. This methodology; as demonstrated in Section 4.2.3 Implementation, can be used quite readily by any operator whose plant's setpoints are based on statistical sunnation. The methodology is based on the use of the following equation.
]+a,c (Eq. 4.2)
[
where:
R = the "as measured rack value" [ ]***'
S = the "as measured sensor value" [ ]
and all other parameters are as defined in Equation 4.1.
4-3 51890:10/091785
(WESTINGHOUSE PROPRIETARY CLASS 3)
Equation 4.2 can be reduced further, for use in the STS to:
(Eq. 4.3)
Z + R + 5 < TA where:
( ) +a.c Equation 4.3 would be used in two instances,1) when the "as measured" rack setpoint value exceeds the rack " trigger value" as defined by the STS Allowable Value, and, 2) when determining that the *as measured" sensor value is within acceptable values as utilized in the various Safety Analyses ar.d verified every 18 months.
4.2.3 IMPLEMENTATION OF THE WESTINGHOUSE SETPOINT METHODOLOGY Implementation of this methodology is reasonably straight forward, Appendix A prcvides a text and tables for use in the Millstone TS. An example of how the specification would be used for the Pressurizer Water Level - High reactor trip (with a Veritrak Transmitter) is as follows.
Every 31 days, as required by Table 4.3-1 of NUREG-0452. Revision 4, a functional test would be performed on the channels of this trip function.
During this test the bistable trip setpoint would be determined for each channel. If the 'as measured" bistable trip setpoint error was found to be less than or equal to that required by the Allowable Value, no action would be f necessary by the plant staf f. The Allowable Value is determined by Equation I
4.1 as follows:

However, since only [

),+a c Now assume that one bistable has " drifted" more than that allowed by the STS According to ACTION statement "A", the plant staff for3)daysurveillance.
must verify that Equation 2.2-1 is met. Going to Table 2.2-1, the following values are noted: Z = 2.18 and the Total Allowance (TA) = 8.0. Assume that the 'as measured" rack setpoint value is 4.5 percent high and the 'as measured" sensor value is 1.5 percent. Equation 2.2-1 looks like:
I + R + S 5 TA 2.18 + 4.5 + 1.5 5 8.0 8.2 > 8.0 As can be seen, 8.2 percent is not less than 8.0 percent thus, the plant staf f must follow ACTION statement '8" (declare channel inoperable and place in the
" tripped" condition). It should be noted that if the plant staff had not measured the sensor drif t, but instead used the value of S in Table 2.2-1 then the sum of Z + R + 5 would also be greater than 8.0 percent. In fact, almost 51890:10/091785 4-5
(WESTINGHOUSE PROPRIETARY CLASS 3) anytime the 'as measured" value for rack drif t is greater than T (the " trigger value"), use of S in Table 2.2-1 will result in the sum of Z + R + S being greater than TA and requiring the reporting of the case of the NRC.
If the sum of R + S was about 0.3 percent less, e.g., R = 4.1 percent, S = 1.3 percent thus, R + 5 = 5.4 percent, then the sum of Z + R + S would be less than 8 percent. Under this condition, the plant staff would recalibrate the instrumentation, as good engineering practice suggests, but the incident is not reportable, even though the " trigger value" is exceeded, because Equation 2.2-1 was satisfied.
In the determination of T for a function with multiple channel inputs there is
' a slight disagreement between Westinghouse proposed methodology and NRC approved methodology. Westinghouse believes that T should be either:
' +a,c (Eq. 4.4)
(Eq. 4.5) where the subscript 1 and 2 denote channels 1 and 2, and the value of T used is whichever is smaller.
The NRC in turn has approved a method of determining T for a multiple channel input function as follows, either:
, +a ,c (Eq. 4.6)
Again the value of T used is whichever is smaller. This method is described in appropriately circumspect terms in NUREG-0717 Supplement 4, dated August 1982.
4-6 5189Q:10/091785
(WESTINGHOUSE PROPRIETARY CLASS 3)
An example demonstrating all of the above noted equations for Overpower AT is provided below:
_ +a c In this document Equations 4.5 and The value of T used is from Equation 4.5.
4.6, whichever results in the smaller value is used for multiple channel input Table functions to remain consistent with current NRC approved methodologies.
4-3 notes the values of TA, A, S, T, and Z for all protection f unctions and is utilized in the determination of the Allowable Values noted in Appendix A.
4-7 51890:10/091785
(WESTINGHOUSE PROPRIETARY CLASS 3)
Table 4.3-1 also requires that a calibration be performed every refueling (approximately 18 months). To satisfy this requirement, the plant staff would I determine the bistable trip setpoint (thus, determining the 'as measured" rack l
. value at that time) and the sensor "as measured" value. Taking these two "as measured" values and using Equation 2.2-1 again the plant staf f can determine that the tested channel is in fact within the Safety Analysis allowance. ;
4.3 CONCLUSION
Using the above methodology, the plant gains added operational flexibility and yet remains within the allowances accounted for in the various accident analyses. In addition, the methodology allows for a sensor drif t factor and an increased rack drift factor. These two gains should significantly reduce the problems associated with channel drift and thus, decrease the number of LERs while allowing plant operation in a safe manner.

(WESTINGHOUSE PROPRIETARY CLASS 3) 2.2 LIMITING SAFETY SYSTEM SETTINGS BASES 2.2.1 REACTOR TRIP SYSTEM INSTRUMENTATION SETPOINTS The Reactor Trip Setpoint Limits specified in Table 2.2-1 are the nominal values at which the Reactor trips are set for each functional unit. The Trip Setpoints have been selected to ensure that the core and Reactor Coolant System are prevented from exceeding their Safety Limits during normal operation and design basis anticipated operational occurrences and to assist the Engineered Safety Features Actuation System in mitigating the consequences of accidents. The Setpoint for a Reactor Trip System or interlock function is considered to be adjusted consistent with the nominal value when the 'as measured" Setpoint is within the band allowed for calibration accuracy.
To accommodate the instrument drif t assumed to occur between operational tests and the accuracy to which Setpoints can be measured and calibrated, Allowable Values for the Reactor Trip Setpoints have been specified in Table 2.2-1.
Operation with Setpoints less conservative than the Trip Setpoint but within the Allowable Value is acceptable since an allowance has been made in the safety analysis to accommodate this error. An optional provision has been included for determining the OPERABILITY of a channel when its Trip Setpoint is found to exceed the Allowable Value. The methodology of this option utilizes the "as measured" deviation f rom the specified calibration point for rack and sensor components in conjunction with a statistical combination of the other uncertainties of the instrumentation to measure the process variable and the uncertainties in calibrating the instrumentation. In Equation 2.2-1, Z + R + 5 1 TA, the interactive effects of the errors in the rack and the I, as sensor, and the "as measured" values of the errors are considered.
specified in Teble 2.2-1, in percent span, is the statistical summation of errors assumed in the analysis excluding those associated with the sensor and rack drift and the accuracy of their measurement. TA or Total Allowance is the difference, in percent span, between the Trip Setpoint and the value used in the analysis for Reactor Trip. R or Rack Error is the 'as measured" deviation, in percent span, for the affected channel from the specified Trip A-11 51890:10/091785
(BESTINGHOUSE PROPRIETARY CLASS 3)
Setpoint. S or Sensor Error is either the "as measured" deviation of the sensor from its calibration point or the value specified in Table 2.2-1, in percent span, from the analysis assumptions. Use of Equation 2.2-1 allows for a sensor drif t f actor, an increased rack drif t f actor, and provides a threshold value for REPORTABLE EVENTS.
The methodology to derive the Trip Setpoints is based upon combining all of the uncertainties in the channels. Inherent to the determination of the Trip Setpoints are the magnitudes of these channel uncertainties. Sensors and other instrumentaton utilized in these channels are expected to be capable of operating within the allowances of these uncertainty magnitudes.
Rack drift in excess of the Allowable Value exhibits the behavior that the rack has not met its allowance. Being that there is a small statistical chance that this Rack of sensor drif t, will happen, an infrequent excessive drift is expected.
in excess of the allowance that is more than occasional, may be indicative of more serious problems and should warrant further investigation.

The OPERABILITY of these systems is required to provide the overall reliability, redundancy, and diversity assumed available in the facility design for the protection and mitigation of accident and transient conditions. The integrated operation of each of these systems is consistent with the assumptions used in the safety analyses. The Surveillance Requirements specified for these systems ensure that the overall system functional capability is maintained comparable to the original design standards. The periodic surveillance tests performed at the minimum frequencies are sufficient to demonstrate this capability.
The Engineered Safety Features Actuation System Instrumentation Trip Setpoints specified in Table 3.3-4 are the nominal values at which the bistables are set for each functional unit. A Setpoint is considered to be adjusted consistent with the nominal value when the "as measured" Setpoint is within the band allowed for calibration accuracy.

In Equation 3.3.-1, Z + R + S S TA, the interactive effects of the errors in the rack and the sensor, and the "as measured" values of the errors are considered. Z, as specified in Table 3.3-4, in percent span, is the statistical summation of errors assumed in the analysis excluding those associated with the sensor and rack drift and the accuracy of their measurement. TA or Total Allowance is the dif ference, in percent span, between the Trip Setpoint and the value used in the analysis for the actuation. R or Rack Error is the "as measured" deviation, in percent span, for the af fected channel f rom the specified Trip Setpoint. S or Sensor Error is either the 'as measured" deviation of the sensor from its calibration point or the value specified in Table 3.3-4, in percent span, from the analysis assumptions.
