Comments and Recommendations:
- 1. Unless specifically identified as "bias" errors in this document, all instrument uncertainty errors will be considered to be random in nature, even when the "+/-" symbol is not shown.2. Some plant specific information has not been provided in the current SSES setpoint calculation(s) and is considered unnecessary because the impact of this information is included within the instrument accuracy values.3. STA evaluations are not performed for rod blocks or permissives per GE setpoint methodology (Reference 1 and Reference 2), such as the RBM Rod Blocks. Therefore, the Operational Limits are not applicable.
- 4. Seismic effect, radiation effect, humidity effect, power supply effect, Radio Frequency Interference/
Electromagnetic Interference (RFI/EMI) effect, and insulation resistance effect errors are marked "negligible" or "included in accuracy" and are considered to have negligible impact on the manufacturer's accuracy terms when they are not identified separately.
- 5. Per Reference 1 and Reference 2, overpressure effects are only applicable to pressure measurement devices (e.g., differential pressure transmitters), and static pressure effects are only applicable to differential pressure measurement devices. These effects are marked 'n/a" for other devices.6. The variation of the LPRM ion chamber output current with +/- 1 percent change of the ion chamber voltage in the saturated range is negligibly small. (Reference 2 Section 4.5.3)7. The APRM subsystem is calibrated on-line weekly (Reference
- 4) using the AGAF process, where the gain of the APRMs is adjusted to read the Core Thermal Power (CTP) determined by the Process Computer (P/C), within a specified As Left Tolerance.
This is equivalent to a standard calibration of the APRM electronics sub-loop (consisting of the LPRM and APRM signal conditioning electronics), where the P/C is the calibration tool and standard.
It is assumed that the P/C and heat balance error is already accounted for in transient analyses.Thus,.the only calibration error to consider for the APRM electronics sub-loop is the As Left Tolerance specified by the AGAF process.8. The Power Electronics Drift for the RBM Trip setpoints uses the 4 hour4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> drift error specification.
The only drift error would be the drift in the several hours after control rod selection and nulling, and before the control rod is motion. This is estimated to be a few hours, so the 4 hour4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> drift interval is used.9. The RBM Rod Blocks limit control rod withdrawal if localized neutron flux exceeds a pre-determined setpoint during control rod manipulations.
However, the RBM system is not essential for the safety of the plant. Hence, the RBM rod withdrawal block setpoint does not perform a protective function. (Reference 5.3)Therefore, the Seismic Effect for the RBM does not need to be considered.
- 10. As described in the Technical Specifications (Reference 4 Section 3.3.2.1), the LPSP is considered as an automatic "enable" feature when abovd the LPSP, and the AV and NTSP are calculated accordingly.
The enable feature occurs as Reactor power increases past the LPSP.The vendor documents for the RBM equipment (and the Reference 4 Bases) treat the LPSP as an automatic "bypass" feature (Reference 6.2) when below the LPSP. The bypass feature occurs as Reactor Power decreases below the LPSP. These two descriptions are not interchangeable/equivalent; there is a need in the equipment logic for an instrument setting"deadband".
Therefore, the equipment instrument setting for the LPSP NTSP must include the 1.1% Rated Thermal power deadband (i.e., hysteresis of 1.0% and an accuracy of 0.1%). The deadband does not apply to the AV.The equipment instrument setting is equal to the NTSP for the other RBM setpoint functions.

For the RBM Downscale Trip Setpoint (DTSP), no credit is taken for it in the RWE analyses.Choice of this setpoint is an operational issue to be decided by the plant. There is no AL for this setpoint.
A value of 94 is recommended, but it can be lowered if operational problems are encountered. (Reference 7.1)12. Per Reference 1 and Reference 2, the difference between the AL and AV and the difference between the ALI a nd NTSP are independent of the num,,eror
'he AL. This applies for a"l of the Power and Trip setpoint functions.
