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 revised methodology was developed in response to those questions with a correspo.. jing 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.,

rack versus sensors and pressure / temperature assumptions. 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 standard, conservative approach, arithmetic summation, to form independent quantities, e.g., drift and calibration error. 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, to allow 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. In all cases, margin exists between the summation and the total allowance.

Section 4.0 notes what the current Standard Technical Specifications use for setpoints and an explanation of the impact of the Westinghouse 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 Westinghouse approach.

? 2.0 COMBINATION OF ERROR COMPONENTS

~

2.1 METHODOLOGY The methodology used to combine the error components for a channel is an appropriate combination cf those groups which are statistically independent, i.e., not interactive. Those errors which are not independent are placed arithmetically into groups that are and can then be systematically combined.

The methodology used is the " square root of the z. of the squares" which has been utilized in other Westinghouse repor. This technique, or others of a similar nature, have been used in WCAP-103950) and WCAP-8567(2) . WCAP-8567 is approved by the NRC noting acceptability of statistical techniques for the application requested. Also, various ANSI, American Nuclear Society, and Instrument Society of America standards approve the use of probabilistic and statistical techniques in determining

". safety-related setpoints(3)(4) The methodology used in this report is essentially the same as that used for V. C. Summer in August, 1982; approved in NUREG 0717, Supplement No. 4(5),

The environmental allowance 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 is assumed that the accuracy effect on a channel due to cable degradation in an accident environment is less than 0.1 % of span. Less than this magnitude of uncertainty is .

," considered negligible and is not factored into the calculations. An error due to this cause, found in excess of 0.1 % of span is arithmetically summed as an environmental (EA) error.

The Westinghouse setpoint methodology results in a value with a 95 % I probability with a high confidence level. With the exception of Process Measurement Accuracy, Rack Drift, and Sensor Drift, all uncertainties assumed are the extremes of the ranges of the various parameters, i.e., are better than two o values. Rack Drift and Sensor Drift are assumed, based on a survey of reported plant LERs, and with Process Measurement Accuracy, are considered conservative values.

2.2 SENSOR ALLOWANCES Five parameters are considered to be sensor allowances, SCA, SMTE, SD, SPE, and STE (see Table 3-20). Of these parameters, two are considered to be statistically independent, SPE and STE, and three are considered interactive, SCA, SMTE and SD. SPE and STE are considered to be independent due to the manner in which the

~

instruments +. ion is checked, i.e., the instrumentation is calibrated and drift determined under conditions in which pressure and

, temperature are assumed constant. An example of this would be as follows; assume a sensor is placed in some position in the containment during a refueling outage. After placement, an instrument technician calibrates the sensor. This calibration is performed at ambient pressure and temperature conditions. Some time later with the plant shutdown, an instrument technician checks for sensor ririft. Using the same technique as for calibrating the sensor, the technician determines if the sensor has drifted. The conditions under which this determination is made are again at ambient pressure and temperature. Thus the temperature and pressure have no impact on the drift determination and are, therefore, independent of the drift allowance.

SCA, SMTE and SD are considered to be interactive for the same reason that SPE and STE are considered independent, i.e., due to the manner in which the instrumentation is checked. Instrumentation calibration techniques use the same process as determining instrument drift, that 4

L_ -- - - A

l is, the end result of the two is the same. When calibrating a

' .1 sensor, the _ sensor output is checked to determine if it is representing accurately the input. The same is performed for a determination of the sensor drift. Thus unless "as left/as found" data is recorded and used, it is impossible to detemir.a the differences between calibration errors and drift when a sensor is checked the second or any subsequent time. Based on this reasoning, SCA, SMTE and SD have been added,to form an independent group which is then factored into Equation 2.1. An example of the impact of this treatment for a level transmitter is (sensor parameters only):

-+a,c SCA -

SMTE -

SPE -

STE -

SD -

. extracting the sensor portion of Equation 2.1 results in;

((SCA + SMTE + SD)2 + (SPE)2 + (STE)2)l/2

[ ]+a,c - 2.12 %

Assuming no interactive effects for any of the parameters results in the following: .

((SCA)2 + (SMTE)2 + (50)2 + (SPE)2 + (STE)2)l/2 (Eq. 2.2)

[ I]+a,c - 1.41 % '

Thus it can be seen that the approach represented by Equation 2.1, which accounts for interactive parameters, results in a more conservative summation of the allowances.

I

2.3 RACK ALLOWANCES I Five parameters, as noted by Table 3-20, are considered to be rack allowances, RCA, RMTE, RCSA, RTE, and RD. Four of these parameters are considered to be interactive (for much the same reason outlined for sensors in 2.2), RCA, RMTE, RCSA, and RD. When calibrating or determining drift in the racks for a specific channel, the processes' are performed at essentially constant temperature, i.e., ambient temperature. Because of this, the RTE parameter is considered to be independent of any factors for calibration or drift. However, the same cannot be said for the other rack parameters. As noted in 2.2, when calibrating or determining drift for a channel, the same end result is desired, that is, at what point does the bistable change state. After initial calibration, without recording and using "as left/as found" data, it is not possible to distinguish the difference between a calibration error, rack drift or a comparator setting
error. Based on this logic, these 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 ofs interactive components) is significant. For a level transmitter channel, using the same approach outlined in Equations 2.1 and 2.2 results in the following: {

RMTE =

extracting the rack portion of Equation 2.1 results in;

[. ]+a,c - 1.26 %

Thus, the impact of the use of Equation 2.1 is even greater in the area of rack effects than for the sensor. Therefore, accounting for interactive effects in the treatment of these allowances insures a conservative result.

2.4 PROCESS All0WANCES 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 effects, 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 factored into Equation 2.1 as independent quantities.

2.5 MEASUREMENT AND TEST E0VIPMENT ACCURACY l

l Westinghouse has been informed by Comanche Peak that some of the l equipment used for calibration and analog channel operational testing (ACOT) of the transmitters and racks does not meet SAMA standard PMC 20.1-1973(I) with regards to test equipment accuracy of 10 % or l less of the calibration accuracy (referenced in 3.2.6.a and 3.2.7.a.

ofthis' report).. This requires'the inclusion of the accuracy of this equipment in the basic equations 2.1 and 3.1. ; Based on information provided by the plant, these additional uncertainties are included in the calculations (as noted on the tables included in this report)

with some impact on the final results. On Table 3-20, the values of SMTE and RMTE are identified explicitly.

f 3.0 PROTECTION SYSTEM SETPOINT METHODOLOGY J 3.1 MARGIN CALCULATION As noted in Section Two. Westinghouse utilizes the square root of the sum of the squares for 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. The equation used to determine the margin, and thus the acceptability of the parameter values used, is:

Margin = TA - ((PMA)2 + (PEA)2 + (SCA+SMTE+SD)2 + (SPE)2 ,

(STE)2 + (RCA+RM1E+RCSA+RD)2 + (RTE)2)l/2 - EA (Eq. 3.1) where:

TA = Total Allowance (Safety Analysis Limit - Nominal Trip Setpoint),and all other parameters are as defined for Equation 2.1.

Using Equation 2.1, Equation 3.1 may be simplified to:

Margin - TA - CSA (Eq. 3.2)

Tables 3-1 through 3-19 provide individual channel breakdown and CSA calculations for all protection functions utilizing 7300 process rack equipment. Table 3-20 provides s summary of the previous 19 tables and includes Safety Analysis and Technical Specification values, Total A11owan:e and Margin.

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:

9

l- 1. Trio Accuracy

~

The tolerance band containing the highest expected value of the difference between (a) the desired trip point value of a process variable and (b), the actual value at which a comparator trips (and thus actuates some desired result). This is the tolerance band, in %

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 not apply.
4. Indication Accuracy The tolerance band containing tne highest expected v61ue 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 must fall within this tolerance band. It includes channel accuracy, 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 calibration of modules intermediate in a chain is allowed to compansate for errors in other modules of the chain. Rack environmental effects are not included here to avoid duplication due  !

' to dual' inputs, however, normal environmental ef fects 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 Ap '

transmitters, an allowance for the effect of static pressure variations.

The tolerances are as follows:

~

a. Reference (calibration) accuracy - [ ]+a,c unless other data indicates ebre inaccuracy. This accuracy is the SAMA reference accuracy as defined in SAMA standard PMC 20.1-1973(l).
b. Measurement and Test Equipment accuracy - usually included as an integral part of (a), Reference (calibration) accuracy, when less than 10 % of the value of (a). .For equipment (DVM, pressure gauge, etc.) used to calibrate the sensor with larger uncertainty values, a specific allowance is made.

. c. Temperature effect - [ )+a,c based on a nominal temperature coefficient of [ 1+a,c/100 Of and a I maximum assumed change of 50 O f from a reference 0

temperature, of 70 F.

d. Pressure effect - usually calibrated out because pressure is constant. If not constant, a nominal [ )+a,c is used. Present data indicates a static pressure effect of approximately [ ]+a,c/1000 psi.
e. Drift - change in input-output relationship over a period of time at reference conditions (e.g., constant temperature -

[ )+a,c ofspan).

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 20.1-1973(l).

This includes all modules in a rack and is a total of

[ )+a,c of span, assuming the chain of modules is I tuned to this accuracy. For simple loops where a power supply (not used as a converter) is the only rack module, this accuracy may be ignored. All rack modules individually must have a reference accuracy within [ J+a,c, (1) Scientific Apparatus Manufacturers Association, Standard PMC 20.1-1973, " Process Measurement and Control Terminology".

.' b. Measurement and Test Equipment Accuracy i Is usually included as an integral part of (a), Reference (calibration) accuracy, when less than 10 % of the value of (a). For equipment (DVM, current source, voltage source, etc.) used to calibrate the racks with larger uncertainty i values, a specific allowance is made.

c. Rack Environmental Effects Includes effects of temperature, humidity, voltage and frequency changes, of which temperature is the most significant. An accuracy of [ ]+a,c, is used which ,

considers a nominal ambient temperature of 70 0F with extremes to 40 Of and 120 0 F for short periods of time.

d. Rack Drift

', Instrument channel drift - change in input-output relationship over a period of time at reference conditions (e.g., constant temper ature) - i 1.0 % of span.

e. Rac Comparator Setting Accuracy Assum ug an exact electronic input, (note that the " channel accuract" takes care of deviations from this ideal), the tolerance on the precision with which a comparator trip value can ta set, within such practical constraints as time and effort e>3 ended in making the setting.

The tolerances assmed for Comanche Peak are as follows:

." (a) Fixed setpoint with a single input - [ ]+a,c span. This assumes that comparator nonlinearities are compensated by the setpoint.

(b) Dual input - an additional [. ]+a,c span must be added for comparator nonlinearities between two inputs.

Total accuracy is [ ]+a,c span.

Note: The following four definitions are currently used in the Standardized Technical Specifications (STS).

8. Nominal Safety System Settina The desired setpoint for the variable. Initial calibration and subsequent recalibrations should be made at the nominal safety system setting (" Trip Setpoint" in STS).
9. Limitino Safety System Settina A setting chosen to prevent exceeding a Safety Analysis Limit

(FN ) = AP N where N = nominal flow 2FN8FN = SAPN thus SFN = (JAPg)/2? N Eq. 3-24.1 Error at a point (not in %) is:

4.0 TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION USAGE 4.1 CURRENT USE 1: The Standard 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 l setpoint channel breakdown, as presented in Figure 4-1, allows for a certain amount of rack drift. The original intent was to reduce the number of reporting events in the area of instrumentation setpoint drift. It appears that this goal was achieved. However, it does not recognize how setpoint calibrations and verifications are performed in the plant. In fact, this two column approach forces the plant to take a double penalty in the area of calibration error. As noted in Figure 4-1, the plant must allow for calibration error below the STS Trip Setpoint, in addition to the allowance assumed in the various accident analyses, if full utilization of the rack drift is wanted. This is due, as noted in 2.2', to the fact that calibration error cannot be distinguished from rack drift after an initial calibration. Thus, the

 ,  plant is left with two choices; 1) to assume a rack drift value less than that allowed for in the analyses (actual RD - assumed RD - RCA) or, 2) penalize the operatien of the plant (and increasing the             ,

possibility of a spurious trip) by lowering the nominal trip setpoint  ; into the operating margin. The use of the summation technique described in Section ? of this report allows for a natural extension of the two column approach. This extension recognizes the calibration / verification techniques used in the plants and allows for a more flexible approach in determining deportability. Also of significant benefit to the plant is the incorporation of sensor drift parameters on an 18 month basis (or more often if necessary). 0 52 J

i 4.2 MESilNGH0VSE SETPOINT METHODOLOGY FOR STS SETPOINTS Recognizing that the plant experiences both rack and sensor drift, a

  .'                            -different approach to Technical Specification setpoints may be used.

This revised methodology accounts for two additional factors seen in the plant during periodic surveillance,1) interactive effects for both' sensors and rack and, 2) sensor drift effects. 4.2.] RACK ALLOWANCE Interactive effects will be covered first. When an instrument technician looks for t-ack drift, more than that is seen if "as left/as found" data is not used. This interaction has been noted several times and is treated in Equations 2.1 and 3.] by the arithmetic summation of the rack effects, RD, RM&TE, RCSA, and RCA; and the sensor effects, SD, SM&TE and SCA. To provide a conservative

                                  " trigger value", the difference between the STS trip setpoint and the STS aewable value is determined by two methods. The first is simply th< values used in the CSA calculation, T) - (RCA + RMTE + RCSA + RD)                           (Eq. 4.-1)

The second extracts these values from the calculations and compares the remaining values against the total allowance: 1 T2 - TA - {(A) + (5)2}I/2 - EA (Eq. 4.2) where: T2 - Rack trigger value A - (PMA)2 + (PEA)2 + (SPE)2 + (STE)2 + (RTE)2 S - (SCA + SMTE + SD) EA, TA and all other parameters are ai defined for Equation 2.1. 4 53

                                                            .. .                                                                                                 I The smaller of the trigger values should be used for comparison with the "as measured" (RCA + RMTE + RCSA + RD) value. As long as the "as measured" value is smaller, the channel is within the accuracy l  allowance. If the "as measured" value exceeds the " trigger value",

the actual number should be used in the calculation described in Section 4.2.3. This means that all the instrument technician has to I do during the 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 i setpoint philosophy (NUREG-0452, Revision 4) and the Westinghouse rack allowance for Virgil C. Summer (31 day surveillance only), values larger than those noted in Table 3-20 will be justified by Comanche Peak. A comparison of the differences between the Safety Analysis Limits and Allowable Values will show the relative gain of the Westinghouse version. 4.2.2 INCLUSION OF "AS MEASURED" SENSOR ALLOWANCE If the approach used was a straight arithmetic sum, sensor allowances for drift would also be straight. forward, i.e., a three column setpoint methodology. However, the use of the Westinghouse  ; methodology requires a somewhat more complicated approach. The methodology is based on the use of Equation 4.3, and demonstrated in l Section 4.2.3, Implementation. TA 2 (A)l/2 + R + S + EA (Eq. 4.3) where: R = the "as measured rack value" (RCA + RMTE + RCSA - xD) S = the "as measured sensor value" (SCA + SMTE + SD)  ;

 #      all other param'eters are as defined in Equation 4.2.

Equation 4.3 can be reduced further, for use in the STS to:

2 - (A)l/2 + EA 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 and verified every 18 months. 4.2.3 IMPLEMENTATION OF THE WESTINGHOUSE SETPOINT METHODOLOGY Implementation of this methodology is reasonably straight forward. Appendix A provides a text and tarles for use at Virgil C. Summer. An example of how the specification would be used for the Pressurizer Pressure - Low reactor trip is as follows. d

          ~

For the periodic surveillance, 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 woulo De determined for each channel. If the "as measured" bistable trip setpoint error was found to be less than or equal to i that required by the Allowable Value, no action would be necessary by the plant staff. The Allowable Value is determined by Equation 4.2 as follows: T2 TA - ((A) + (S)2)l/2 - EA t 55

The lowest of two values is used for the " trigger value'; either the value for T asse:ned in the analyses or the value calculated by Equation 4.2. Now assume that one bistable has " drifted" more than that allowed by the STS for periodic surveillance. According to ACTION statement

 .          b.1, the plant staff must verify that Equation 2.2-1 is met. Going 1          to Table 2.2-1, the following values are noted: Z - 0.71-and the assumed Total Allowance is (TA) - 4.5. Assume that the "as~ measured" rack setpoint value is 2.75 % low and the "zt reasured" sensor value     !

I is 1.5 %. Equation 2.2-1 looks like. 3

                                                                                     )

It should be noted that if the j plant staff had not measured the sensor drift, but instead used the I value of S in Table 2.2-1 then the sum of Z + R + S would also be

 .-         greater than 4.5 %. In fact, anytime the "as measured" value for o                                                                                    .

rack drift is ' greater than T (the " trigger value") and there is less r ,' than 1.0 % margin, use of S in Table 2.2-1 will result in the sua of Z + R + S being greater than TA and require the reporting of the case- .' to the NRC. If the sum of R + S was about 0.5 % less, e.g , R = 2.25 L S - 1.5 % . thus, R + 5 = 3.75 %, then the sum of 2 + R ihould be less, than 4.5 %. Under this condition, the plant staff weufd recalibrates the instrumentation, as good engineering practice suggests, b: t 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 sligr,t disagreement between Westinghouse proposed methodology sr' NRC approveo methodology. Westinghouse believes toat T si,ould 8 / either: Ty - (RCA3 RMTE3 + RCSA; + RD3 ) +

                              ! 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: 4 T3 - ((RCA3 +RMTE) + RCSA)3 + RD )2 (RCA2 + RMTE 2 + RCSA2 2 + RD ) ) / (Eq. 4.7) ; or Equation 4.6 at described above. 1 f l f -

The value of T used is based on Equation 4.6 (T2 ). In this document Equations 4.6 and 4.7, whichever results in the smaller ' value, is used for multiple channel input functions to remain consistent with current NRC approved methodologies. Table 4-3 notes the values of TA, A, S, T, and Z for all protection functions and is utilized in the determination of the Allowable Values noted in Appendix A. l l l 7@le 4.3-1 also requires that a calibration be performed every refueling (approximately 18 months). To satisfy this requirement, the plant staff would determine the bistable trip setpoint (thus, determining the "as measured" rack value at that time) and the sensor "as measured" value. Taking these two "as measured" values and using 58

j l-L I- Equation 2.2-1 again the plant staff 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 cccounted for in the various accident analyses. In addition, the methodology allows for a sensor drift 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 reportable events while allowing plant operation in a safe manner. W e e e 59

NOTES FOR TABLE 4-3 (Continued) e b (9) This column provides the maximum value for a bistable assuming that the transmitter is not evaluated and the values for S, 2 and TA from this table are used in the following equation: R - TA'- Z - S. This implys that the transmitter is assumed to be at it's maximum allowed calibration and drift deviation in the non-conservative direction. With a bistable's Trip Setpoint found in excess of the value noted in this column, it is possible (but not known absolutely) that a channel would be considered inoperable. This must be tempered by the transmitter assumption noted above, i.e., the transmitter is assumed to be at it's worst acceptable condition. a b e f n A 65

2.2 LIMITING SAFETY SYSTEM SETTINGS BASES s 2.2.1 REACTOR TRIP SY5 TEM 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 Lo ensure that the reactor 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" ("as left") setpoint is within the band allowed for calibration accuracy. I To accommodate the instrument drift 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" ("as found") deviation from the specified calibration point for rack and sensor components, in conjunction with j 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, TA 1 Z + R + S, the interactive effects of the errors in the rack and { the sensor, and the "as measured" ("as found" - nominal) values of the errors are considered.

   .                  BASES 3/4.3.1 and 3/4.3.2 REACTOR TRIP AND ENGINEERED SAFETY FEATURE                             (

ACTUATION SYSTEM INSTRUMENTATION l 1 The OPERABILITY of the Reactor Protection System and Engineered Safety Feature Actuation System Instrumentation and interlocks ensure that-1) the associated action and/or reactor trip will be initiated when the parameter monitored by each channel or combination thereof reaches its setpoint, 2) the specified coincidence logic is maintained, 3) sufficient redundancy is maintained to permit a channel to be out of service for testing or maintenance, and 4) sufficient system functional capability is available from diverse parameters. I; 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 accident Jialyses. The surveillance requirements specified for these systems

                       <isuro that the overall system functional capability is maintained 3mparable to the original design standards. The periodic surveillance tests performed at the minimum frequencies are sufficient to demonstrate this capability.

The Engineered Safety Feature 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 ("as left") is within the band allowed for
  ,                  calibration accuracy.

                                                                               .(

To accommodate the instrument drift assumed to occur between-

    .-   operational tests and the accuracy to which setpoints can be measured and calibrated, Allowable Values fo- the setpoints have been
     **  specified in Table 3.3-4. 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 accomodate 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" ("as found") deviation from 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, TA 2 Z + R + S, the interactive effects of the errors in the rack and the sensor, and the "as measured" values of the errors are considered. 2, as specified in Table 3.3-4, in % 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 %

( span, between the trip setpoint and the value used in the analysis for the actuation. R or Rack Error is the "as measured" ("as found"

        - nominal) deviation, in % span, for the affected channel from the specif' , trip setpoint. S or Sensor Drift is either the "as t

measured" ("as found" - nominal) deviation of the sensor from its calibration point or the value specified in Table 3.3-4, in % span, from the analysis assumptions. Use of Equation 2.2-1 allows for a sensor drift factor, an increased rack drift factor, and provides a threshold value for determining deportability. The methodology to derive the trip setpoints is based upon combining all of the uncertainties in the channels. Inherent to the 3, determination of the trip setpoints are the magnitudes of these channel uncertainties. Sensor and rack instrumentation utilized in

   . these channels are expected to be capable of operating within the 74

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 3

this will happen, an infrequent excessive drift is expected. Rack or sensor drift, in excess of the allowance that is more than occasional, may be indicative of more serious problems and should warrant further investigation. 9 W O' s e 75
