3. Perform all calculations to 3 decimal places.

A.2 - RO Page 61 of 106 START TIME: _______

STEP 1: Obtain a copy of the instruction.

___ SAT STANDARD: A copy of 1-SI-0-21 Excore QPTR & Axial Flux Difference has been obtained.

EXAMINERS CUE: After the applicant has identifies the correct ___ UNSAT instruction, provide a copy of the instruction.

COMMENTS:

NOTE TO EVALUATOR: The following steps are from Section 6.1 of 1-SI-0-21 Excore QPTR & Axial Flux Difference NOTE 1 Obtaining QPTR calculated values from the Process Computer is the preferred method to check that the QPTR is within Technical Specification limits. QPTR values are obtained from Process Computer calculated computer points for upper and lower radial flux tilt. These points are available on the Tilting Factors display. The report may be printed with Turn On code TFREP.

NOTE 2 Up to one inoperable excore channel can be marked N/A if THERMAL POWER is < 75% RTP.

STEP 2: [Step 1] IF performing this instruction during an NIS calibration (when all four channels are NOT complete), THEN REFER to Precautions and Limitations 3.0 E.

___ SAT STANDARD: Step is N/A since the QPTR is NOT being performed during an NIS calibration.

___ UNSAT COMMENTS:

A.2 - RO Page 62 of 106 STEP 3: [Step 2] IF the process Computer is available, THEN PRINT the Tilting Factors Report AND/OR PERFORM the QPTR calculations using Attachment 1.

___ SAT STANDARD: Applicant goes to Attachment 1 and performs applicable steps.

___ UNSAT COMMENTS:

NOTE 1 Determining detector currents by measuring the voltage across the detectors meter test points, using DVM, is the most accurate method for measuring QPTR and for determining the validity of a QPTR alarm.

NOTE 2 Using detector current meter readings is another method to quickly check that QPTR is within limits. These meters are not as accurate as the DVM readings and may produce unacceptable results because: 1) the meters on the B drawer may be scaled too high or (2) the meter may be unstable due to drift or noise. When unacceptable results are obtained DVM readings should be obtained, otherwise, Step [1] and [2] may be marked N/A if DVM not used.

NOTE 3 Up to one inoperable excore channel can be marked N/A if THERMAL POWER is < 75% RTP.

___ UNSAT COMMENTS:

CAUTION An inadvertent reactor trip may be prevented by ensuring that no power range neutron high flux rate or power range high flux channels are in the tripped condition prior to taking EACH measurement in the NIS Power Range Drawer B.

NOTE The following determination may be made by measuring the voltage across the 1000 ohm precision resistor in NIS power range drawer B. When using this method the Ohms Law conversion from a millivolt measurement to a microamp measurement only requires changing the unit designator (e.g., 280 millivolts converts to 280 microamps).
