NOTES FOR TABLES 4.2.A THROUGH 4.2.G 1.

Initially once per month until exposure hours (H as defined on Figure 5

4.1.1) is 2.0 x 10 ; thereafter, according to Figure 4.1.1 with an interval not less than one month nor more than three months.

2.

Functional tests, calibrations and instrument checks are not required when these instruments are not required to be operable or are tripped.

Functional tests shall be performed before each startup with a required frequency not to exceed once per week. Calibrations of IRMs and SRMs shall be performed during each startup or during controlled shutdowns with a required frequency not to exceed once per week.

Instrument checks shall be performed at least once per day during those periods when the instruments are required to be operable.

3.

This instrumentation is excepted from the functional test definition.

The functional test will consist of injecting a simulated electrical signal into the measurement channel.

I 4.

Simulated automatic actuation shall be performed once each operating cycle. Where possible, all logic system functional tests will be performed using the test jacks.

5.

Reactor low water level, high drywell pressure and high radiation main steam line tunnel are not included on Table 4.2.A since they are tested on Table 4.1.2.

6.

The logic system functional tests shall include a calibration of time delay relays and timers necessary for proper functioning of the trip J

systems.

7.

Calibration of analog trip units will be performed concurrent with functional testing. The functional test will consist of injecting a j

simulated electrical signal into the measurement channel. Calibration of associated analog transmitters will be performed each refueling outage.

i Amendment No. O, 99, 110 67

l l

3.2 BASES (Cont'd)

The control rod block functions are provided to prevent excessive control rod withdrawal so that MCPR does not decrease to the Safety Limit MCPR.

The trip logic for this function is 1 out of n:

e.g., any trip on one of six APRM's, eight IRM's, or four SRM's will result in a rod block.

The minimum instrument channel requirements assure sufficient instrumentation to assure the single failure criteria is met. The minimum instrument channel requirements for the RBM may be reduced by one for maintenance, testing, or calibration.

This time period is only

37. of the operating time in a month and does not significantly increase the risk of preventing an inadvertent control rod withdrawal.

The APRM rod block function is flow biased and prevents a significant reduction in MCPR. especially during operation at reduced flow.

The APRM provides gross core protection; 1.e., limits the gross core power increase from withdrawal of control rods in the normal withdrawal sequence.

The trips are set so that MCPR is maintained greater than the Safety Limit MCPR.

The RBM rod block function provides local protection of the core, for a single rod withdrawal error from a limiting control rod pattern.

The IRM rod block function provides local as well as gross core protection. The scaling arrangement is such that trip setting is less than a factor of 10 above the indicated level.

A downscale indication on an APRM or IRM is an indication the. instrument has failed or the instrument is not sensitive enough.

In either case the instrument will not respond to changes in control rod motion and thus, control rod motion is prevented.

The downscale trips are as shown in Table 3.2.C-2.

l The flow comparator and scram discharge volume high level components have only one logic channel and are not required for safety.

The refueling interlocks also operate one logic channel, and are required for safety only when the mode switch is in the refueling position.

For effective emergency core cooling for small pipe breaks, the HPCI system must function since reactor pressure does not decrease rapidly enough to allow either core spray or LPCI to operate ir, time.

The automatic pressure relief function is provided as a backup to the l
