-
of Alternate Shutdown Cooling: Opening an additional SRV if reactor pressure rises to >164 psig above Suppression Chamber pressure.
Reference:
None Cog Level: High Explanation: Loss of shutdown cooling is addressed in OAOP-1 5 which provides for multiple methods of providing decay heat removal. Using alternate shutdown cooling with the SRVs requires raising reactor water level to the steam lines and opening an SRV. A low pressure pump (preferably RHR) is then used to inject into the reactor with the coolant flowing to the torus via the open SRV. RHR pumps will deadhead at approximately 165 psig. lAW OAOP-15, if pressure reaches shutoff head, an additional SRV must be opened. This relieves vessel pressure, allowing additional flow and preventing deadheading of the RHR pumps thereby maintaining decay heat removal.
)LIIIIII1II1 k L Distractor Analysis: Choice A: Plausible because high pressure will deadhead the RHR pump and result in inadequate cooling. If pumps were not deadheaded, starting an additional pump would increase flow and cooldown rate. Choice B: Plausible because high pressure will increase the flow through the SRV. If cause of pressure increase was due to to excessive RHR pump flow, and shutoff head were not reached, then excessive cooldown could be achieved and stopping an RHR pump might be the appropriate action. Choice C: Correct answer, see explanation. Choice D: Plausible because high flow could increase cooldown rate. Closing the SRV would stop cooling flow. SRO Basis: N/A AOP-1 5.0 This procedure addresses a loss of normal decay heat removal capability during shutdown conditions. The procedure provides contingencies for the following methods of decay heat removal: RHRSW loop failure

to the following events: PCIS failure
Reference:
None Cog Level: High Explanation: The Group 4 isolation logic contains two isolation trip systems. Trip System A provides isolation signals to the Outboard steam line isolation and torus suction valve; trip system B operates the Inboard isolation valves. The NUMACs provide indication and trip channels for RWCU, HPCI and RCIC leak detection. The NUMACs are powered from 120 Vac E bus power; Div. I from 31A (32A) and Div. II from 31B (32B). On a loss of power, the NUMAC output relays for RWCU are de-energize to trip and will initiate a RWCU isolation. The HPCI/RCIC output relays are energize to trip and will not cause a HPCI or RCIC isolation on a loss of AC power. Certain ASSD procedures and the SBO procedure requires HPCI be maintained available for safe shutdown under conditions of elevated reactor building temperature due to fire and/or loss of ventilation. The steam leak detection inputs to the isolation logic are defeated by turning off the 120 Vac power supply breaker, 31A (32A) and 31 B (32B) to the NUMAC steam leak detection modules.

- Distractor Analysis:
Choice A: Plausible because if the HPCI isolation was de-energize to actuate (as is the RWCU system) then this would be correct. 32A provides to outboard not inboard. Choice B: Plausible because if the HPCI isolation was de-energize to actuate (as is the RWCU system) then this would be correct. Choice C: Plausible because if the loss was 32B then this would be correct. Choice D: Correct Answer, see explanation. SRO Basis: N/A The isolation system is divided into two logic systems, Logic Bus A and Logic Bus B. Logic Bus A isolates the outboard valves, E41-F003 and E41-F041, while Logic Bus B isolates the inboard valves, E41 -F002 and E4 1 -F042. A Manual Isolation pushbutton is provided on Panel P601 to permit the operator to insert an isolation should plant conditions require it. The Manual Isolation only initiates a Logic A isolation and is only in effect when a Reactor Low Level Two or a High Drywell Pressure signal is present Power supplies are as follows: Inboard Isolation Logic 125 VDC PnL 3B(U1),4B(U2) - Outboard Isolation Logic 125 VDC Pnl. 3A(U1 ),4A(U2) ( Leak Detection Logic Div.

II 120 VAC Pnl. 31B(U1),32B(U2) The Seam Leak Detection System for RWCU, HPCI and RCIC consists of four NUMAC microprocessor units located in the Control Room back panel area (additional information on the operation of the NUMAC microprocessors is in Section 3). The NUMAC5 provide indication and trip channels for RWCU, HPCI and RCIC leak detection. In addition the NUMAC output signals interface with the ERFIS and Process Computer for various calculations and monitoring of plant parameters (Le., Heat Balance). The NUMAC5 are powered from 120 Vac E bus power; Div I from 31A (32A) and Div. II from 31 B (328). On a loss of power, the NUMAC output relays for RWCU are de-energize to trip and will initiate a RWCU isolation. The HPCIIRCIC output relays are energize to trip and will not cause a HPCI or RCIC isolation on a loss of AC power Steam leak detection for the Unit 1 Main Steam system is accomplished by temperature switches located along the main steam lines. A total of 16 temperature switches monitor the main steam lines for steam leaks in the Reactor Building (MSIV pit) and Turbine Building steam tunnels. Four SD-12 Rev.1O I Pagei5of208

Per SD-18, Step 3.1.3 Core Spray Inboard and Outboard Injection Valves The Core Spray Inboard and Outboard Injection Valves, E21-FOO5B(A) and E21-FOO4B(A), respectively, have automatic and manual control functions. Normally, the valves are in the automatic mode as dictated by the Control Switches, E21 -SI B/A and S2BIA (CLOSE-AUTO-OPEN, spring return to AUTO), for each valve. Both valves will automatically open provided the following conditions are met: El An initiation signal present (Low reactor water level #3 or low reactor vessel pressure coincident with a high drywell pressure). (KI0) Low reactor pressure permissive satisfied (K20) El 10 second start timer relay timed out (timer starts once the E-bus is energized) (K3/K4) If the inboard (E21-FOO5BIA) valve control switch is turned to CLOSE while an initiation signal is present, the valve automatic opening function will be disabled. The manually initiated CLOSE signal will override the automatic OPEN signal thus allowing the valve to be throttled as the Operator desires. The valves automatic opening function will remain disabled until the system initiation signal is cleared (initiation logic is reset, reactor pressure increases above 410 psig, or power is lost to the associated Emergency Bus). A white light will illuminate CLOSE SIC SEALED VLV E21-F005 on P601 which indicates that the automatic opening is disabled.

determine the following: When Boron Mixing is required after being injected into the reactor.
Reference:
None Cog Level: HIGH Explanation: From SD-05, Section 2.11: Adequate mixing of the solution with the reactor water should occur if the solution is injected when natural circulation exists with normal reactor water level. In this case the sodium pentaborate remains in the lower plenum of the reactor until the reactor water level is raised. The injection rate of the SLC pumps isper design 43 gpm while the PT acceptance criteria is 41.2 gpm. In the case both pumps are operating so the numbers are calculated with both numbers.
_I__w__ __r __I_ Distractor Analysis: Choice A: Plausible because adequate mixing would occur with forced circulation, however during an ATWS level is deliberately lowered and recirculation pumps are not operating. 32 to 34 minutes would be the injection time of both pumps. Choice B: Plausible because adequate mixing would occur with forced circulation, however during an ATWS level is deliberately lowered and recirculation pumps are not operating. 65 to 68 minutes would be the injection time of one pump.

- a 1W JIWSL WSaWW From 001-37.5, Level/Power Control Procedure Basis Document:
Tripping the recirculation pumps from high reactor power effects a prompt reduction in power. If boron injection is later required, three-dimensional model tests have demonstrated that forced recirculation need not be maintained because natural circulation flow provides adequate boron mixing. Tripping the recirculation pumps is allowed in this step because the operator will have already run the speeds back, if necessary, and the resulting changes will be significantly reduced. Maintaining reactor water level below the normal operating range suppresses reactor power by reducing natural circulation core flow. If reactor water level is lowered to and maintained near LL-4, little if any natural circulation flow exists within the reactor vessel. F Three-dimensional scale model tests have been conducted which confirm that little boron mixing occurs under these conditions if the boron is injected into the lower plenum. The injected boron concentrates in the lower plenum region of the reactor vessel and does not contribute to reactor shut down until in-core distribution (mixing) is achieved. When an amount of boron sufficient to shut down the reactor has been injected into the reactor vessel, mixing is accomplished by raising reactor water level thereby increasing natural circulation flow through the vessel. From SD-OS, Standby Liquid Control System: 2.11 SLC Injection Piping (Figure 05-5) The solution enters the reactor vessel through the SLC/core differential pressure line penetration. The penetration consists of a pipe within a pipe, with the outer pipe welded to the reactor pressure vessel nozzle, providing an annular space between the nozzle and the inner line, used for SLC injection, to minimize thermal shock to the vessel if SLC is used. The outer pipe connects to the core support plate and senses the above core plate pressure. The inner pipe penetrates (sealed) the outer pipe inside the reactor vessel and ends below the core plate. The SLC solution is injected through the inner pipe and is dispersed beneath the lower core plate. Adequate mixing of the solution with the reactor water should occur if the solution is injected when natural circulation exists with normal reactor water level. However, if natural circulation does not exist, during cases of extreme low water level, no mixing will occur. In this case the sodium pentaborate remains in the lower plenum of the reactor until the reactor water level is raised allowing normal natural circulation be established. In addition to providing the SLC solution injection point, this penetration provides the following functions: 24 SLC Pumps There are two full capacity triplex piston positive displacement pumps that can inject the solution into the reactor at a rate of 43 gpm at 1190 psig. When both pumps are operating simultaneously, the flow rate is increased to approximately 86 gpm. One pump will inject the tank contents in 58 to 81 minutes and two pumps will inject the solution into the reactor in 29 to 40 minutes.

Reference:
None Cog Level: High Explanation: SDV hi hi trip can be bypassed only if the Mode switch is in Shutdown or Refuel. Setdown is 170, 4 above scram setpoint, IRM trips bypassed in RUN, MSIV input to RPS for scram is not made up. Distractor Analysis: Choice A: Correct answer, see explanation. Choice B: Plausible because reactor water level sets down to 170 following a scram to prevent overfeeding of the vessel following the scram. This setdown, however, is above the low level scram setpoint of 166 Choice C: Plausible because misranging of IRMs with the reactor critical could cause a reactor scram but the IRM scram input is bypassed with the mode switch in RUN. Choice D: Plausible because the right combination of MSIVs closed with the mode switch in RUN would result in a reactor scram. SRO Basis: N/A
p -r Jrpae 1 nt - SD-03: 3.1.4 Scram Discharge Volume High Level (Figures 03-11, 03-12 arid 03-13) The Scram Discharge Volume High Level initiates a Scram while adequate volume is still available to receive Scram discharge water to assure that all operable Control Rods will fully insert. Since this Scram signal will be generated following any Scram, it must be bypassed to allow for resetting a Scram condition. A two position NORMAL/BYPASS keylock switch (S4), on Panel 603, must be in BYPASS coincident with the Reactor Mode Switch (Si) in Refuel or Shutdown in order to initiate bypass of this Scram parameter. 3.1.5 Main Steam Isolation Valves Closure, Setpoint 10 % Closed (Figures 03-11, 03-12 and 03-14) A Scram signal is initiated when specific combinations of Main Steam Line Isolation Valves (MSIV5) close. This scram acts to mitigate the positive reactivity addition transient resulting from sudden MSIV closure at high power and precludes high power reactor operation under low pressure conditions such as may occur following a main steam line rupture while at 100% power. This scram is bypassed when the Reactor Mode Switch is in RUN. As with the Turbine Stop Valves, two Steam Lines may be isolated ( 10% closed) without causing a reactor scram.
- Isolating one steam line does not cause a half-Scram.
- Isolating Main Steam Unes A and D or B and C does not cause a half-Scram.
- Isolating any other combination of two Main Steam Lines will cause a half-Scram.
- Isolating any combination of three Main Steam Lines will cause a Reactor Scram.

- n. aL ar tira 3.1.7 Reactor Low Water Level, Setpoint 166 Inches (Figure 03-16)
The Reactor water level trip point was chosen far enough below the normal operating level to avoid spurious Scrams but high enough above the fuel to assure that there is adequate water to account for evaporation losses and displacement of coolant following the most severe transients. Signals are from four (4) level indicating switches. Since the backup Scram valve logic requires a full Scram signal, the logic is used to isolate the Scram Discharge Volume. The Backup Scram Solenoid logic (K21 relays) is used to by Digital Feedwater Control System (DFCS) to set the DFWLC setpoint down to 17O, transfer to Single Element Control, and bypass the Single Element Control Noise Filters following a scram. These DFCS post-SCRAM functions are intended to improve Reactor level control post-SCRAM. These relays are also used in the Scram Reset logic. Only one IRM per RPS Trip System may be manually bypassed due to physical arrangement of the bypass switch. The IRM5 are automatically bypassed when the Reactor Mode Switch is in Run.

-
Performing IRM range 6 to 7 overlap test.
Reference:
None Cog Level: LOW Explanation: The IRMs utilize a preamplifier to boost the output signal and routes this signal through range switches to provide indication over varying power levels. This preamplifier operates over two discreet frequency ranges. As power increases, the output signal of the detectors increases and noise increases. When range six is exceeded, the frequency of the preamplifiers is shifted higher. In order to ensure accurate indication for the control operator, the indications resulting from this frequency shift are verified to be correct by the performance of OMST-IRM25R, IRM Channels Range Correlation Adjustment. Distractor Analysis: Choice A: Plausible because overlap determination is performed when IRMs change from low frequency (more sensitive) to high frequency (more noise immune)(range six to seven). If ranging was from range seven to six, the opposite relationship would be true. Choice B: Correct Answer, see explanation Choice C: Plausible because the pulse height discriminator is part of the SRM circuit that provides for the removal of the noise in the circuit. Choice D: Plausible because the pulse height discriminator is part of the SRM circuit that provides for the removal of the noise in the circuit.
a p IW Cf Lala SI I aJaiWSStII, SRO Basis: N/A SD-09.1 2.4.1 Voltage Preamplifier (IRM) Each IRM instrument channel utilizes a voltage preamplifier which is used in conjunction with a mean square voltage vide range monitor to measure the mean square value of a current or voltage signal over a range of three decades in each of two bandwidths. The voltage preamplifier raises the output of the detector so mat it can overcome the noise picked up in the long cable to the control room. The voltage preamplifier
- 1. Provides amplification of the low level signal from the detector
- 2. Passes only those portions of the detector signal V necessary for proper operation of the IRM signal by isolating the HVPS and detector signal from one another.
The preamplifier is located in Cabinet P030 a chassis just outside the drywell. Relays are in cabinet P008. The preamplifier passes only one of two sets of frequencies depending on the detector range selected by the IRM range selector switch as follows: Range Frequencies Passed 1-6 0.8-16Khz 7-10 300-600Khz The reason for selection of frequency bands is because these frequency bands exhibit the best proportionality to power. Correct overlap of IRM range 6 to 7 is verified during a reactor startup. The lower band (0.8 16 Khz) is more sensitive. This
-
frequency band has signals from both electron and ion collection pulses. while the upper band sees signals from only electron collection, which has a shorter (higher frequency) pulse. This lower band frequency is utilized for ranges 1-6, where neutron flux levels are relatively low. The upper band has greater immunity to noise and develops a signal based solely on the change in frequency as a result of electron pulses from neutron interaction within the detector.

Cog Level: High Explanation: With the initial conditions both RHR pumps and both RHR SW pumps will be running with the HX bypass valve (F048) full closed. Based on the initial conditions no over-rides will be required at this time for Suppression Pool Cooling lineup. Upon receipt of the LOCA initiation signal, the HX bypass valve will receive an auto open signal and the torus cooling valves will auto close. Suppression pool cooling suction valves will remain in the current alignment. Running RHR pumps will continue to run (no loss of suction trip). RHR SW pumps will receive a trip signal. To re-establish cooling)he RHR SW pumps will have to be restarted using a LOCA override switch and the torus cooling valves will require the Think switch to be manipulated in order to re-open them.
Distractor Analysis: Choice A - Plausible because the RHR SW pumps will trip. Choice B - Plausible because the RHR SW pumps will trip, Initial conditions did not require use of overrides. Choice C - Correct Answer, see explanation Choice D Plausible because the RHR SW Pumps will trip. Initial conditions did not require use of overrides

3.6.2 Containment Cooling/Spray Discharge Valves (Figures 17-22, 17-23. 17-24, 17-25, and 17-26) The Suppression Pool spray and cooling valves (FO28AIB and FQ24A/B and FO27NB) and the Containment spray valves (FOl GA/B and F02IAfB), which automatically close on a LPCI initiation, can be opened manually when satisfying the Containment Spray Permissive Logic. The containment spray valve control logic requires Drywell pressure to be gçr than LpJ,g AND the reactor vessel water level inside the core shroud be above the level equivalent to 2/3 of the cores height as proven by B2i-LTM-N036-I or N037-l with a LPCI initiation signal present, OR the 213 Core Height LPCI Initiation Manual Override keylock switch placed in OVERRIDE. Positioning the Containment Spray Valve Control (THINK) switch, in MANUAL will complete the spray permissive. The manual positioning (OPEN) command to the valves originating from the associated control switch can then be executed. With no accident signal present, F027A(B) and F028A(B) are interlocked with each other such that one of the valves must be closed in order to open the other. Torus isolation valve F028A(S) also requires both Shutdown Cooling suction valves FOO6A(B) and FOO6C(D) to be full closed prior to opening. Drywell Spray valves FO1GA(B) and FQ21A(B) have the same interlock arrangement with no accident signal as F027A(B) and FO2BA(B). Containment-side discs for Eil-F028A(B) have been drilled with a vent hole to prevent thermally induced pressure-locking when required to open. The suppression pool cooling valves which automatically close during a LPCI initiation can be opened manually with the following permissives satisfied: The water level inside the core shroud is above the level equivalent to 213 of the core height, as proven by B21-LTM-N036-t or N037-1 with a LPCI initiation signal present. If it is absolutely necessary to provide cooling (e.g., to lower the suppression pool temperature), the two-thirds of the core height water level inhibit and LPCI signal can be overridden by placing 2/3 core height LPCI initiation manual override keylock override switch El l-518A(B) to MANUAL OVERRIDE position. Think switch El i-517A(B) must also be activated to MANUAL before the manual positioning (OPEN) command to the valves associated control switch can be effected and executed.

- FIX Bypass valve F048A(B) opens automatically and cannot be closed for 3 minutes.
- Torus isolation valves F024A(B}, and 1028A(B) would all close automatically if open, and cannot be reopened until the Containment Cooling Spray permissives are satisfied.
- RHR pump in operation vould continue to run as long as no bus undervoltage condition exists.
- RHRSW pumps in operation trip and cannot be restarted unless the RI-IRSW pump LOCA Override switch is placed in Manual OVERRIDE.

Reference:
None Bank question that was last used on the 03 NRC exam. Cog Level: High Explanation: The Manual Isolation pushbutton is effective only if a low reactor water level signal (LL2) is present, it will close the outboard isolation valves, E51-F008 and F029. If the low reactorwater level condiUon does not exist, the outboard isolation valves will not close. There is an isolation signal present on RCIC Steam Line Tunnel Ambient Temperature but it has a 27 minute time delay when temp is 165°F and this is 10 minutes into the event.
.
JIZIfLJF I I4 IItIIIIJIIII Distractor Analysis: Choice A: Plausible because only the F008 valve is affected by the Manual Isolation pushbutton while there is an initiation signal present, but the F007 is not because this manual isolation pushbutton only affects the B logic valves. Choice B: Correct Answer, see explanation Choice C: Plausible because the F007 valve is an isolation valve but it is not not affected by the Manual Isolation pushbutton because this pushbutton only affects the B logic valves. Choice D: Plausible because there is an isolation signal present on RCIC Steam Line Tunnel Ambient Temperature but it has a 27 minute time delay when temp is 165°F and this is 10 minutes into the event. The Isolation pushbutton has no effect on RCIC if an initiation signal is not present. SRO Basis: N/A From SD-16 In addition to the automatic isolation, the RCIC System may be manually isolated. This manual isolation may be accomplished in two separate and independent ways; one is only applicable during RCICs automatic initiation, and the other is applicable during RCIC non-automatic operation. The first manual isolation function is accomplished by depressing the STEAM ISOLATION pushbutton. This isolation, effective only if a low reactor water level signal (LL2) is present, closes the outboard isolation valves, E51-F008 and F029. If the low reactor water level condition does not exist, the outboard isolation valves will not close The second manual isolation function is the regular close and open feature of the isolation valves. This function is initiated through the use of the isolation valves individual control switches.

None Cog Level: High
g;___ Explanation: Since a LOCA signal exists (>1.7 psig DW pressure concurrent with <410 psig reactor pressure) and reactor water level is greater than 2/3 core height, use of the 2/3 Core Height LPCI Initiation Override switch is unnecessary. In this condition, operation of the THINK switch in conjunction with DW pressure greater than 2.7 psig is sufficient to make up the spray logic and illuminate the Ctmt Spr Ovrd light. With the logic made up, the operator only has to open the spray valves El l-FOI6B and El l-F021 B. Distractor Analysis: Choice A: Plausible because there are two lights associated with the cooling/spray logic. If drywell pressure was below 2.7 psig, the spray light would not be illuminated but the cooling light would be illuminated. If a LOCA signal were not present or level was below 2/3 core height, the use of the 2/3 Core Height LPCI Initiation Override switch would be required. Choice B: Correct Answer, see explanation Choice C: Plausible because there are two lights associated with the cooling/spray logic. If drywell pressure was below 2.7 psig, the spray light would not be illuminated but the cooling light would be illuminated. If a LOCA signal were not present or level was below 2/3 core height, the use of the 2/3 Core Height LPCI Initiation Override switch would be required. Choice D: Plausible because there are two lights associated with the cooling/spray logic. If drywell pressure was below 2.7 psig, the spray light would not be illuminated but the cooling light would be illuminated. SRO Basis: N/A SD-17
- Containment Cooling/Spray Valve Control (THINK): Two lights, one that is illuminated for Suppression Pool Cooling permissive (from K69B), the other for containment spray.
- If the Containment Spray or Suppression Pool Cooling permissive white lights are illuminated with the Think 1 switch in MANUAL, then the 2/3 Core Height permissive is satisfied and placing the 2/3 Core Height LPCI Initiation Override Switch to OVERRIDE is NOT necessary.

Reference:
None Cog Level: High Explanation: The Brunswick plant does not utilize suppression chamber airspace temperatures OPS,) therefore this correlation is utilized to meet the K/A. Suppression pool spray is uicflo attempt to reverse a rising trend of primary containment pressure and is initiated before reaching 11.5 psig in the suppression chamber (PCCP PCIP-06). Pressure suppression pressure is a function of suppression pool level and suppression chamber pressure. The limit assumes no steam in the airspace. The question stem provides a crack in the downcomer in the suppression chamber area thereby bypassing the pressure suppression function of the suppression pool, introducing steam into the air space. Use of Suppression Pool sprays will mitigate this condition by condensing the steam and removing heat by evaporative and convective cooling. Loss of Suppression pool spray will result in uncondensed steam in the suppression chamber airspace, exceeding pressure suppression pressure. Rising pressure in the air space can be attributed to steam in the airspace which can be correlated to air space temperature.
Distractor Analysis: Choice A: Plausible because drywell pressure is utilized in the same PCCP leg when determining actions for securing H2/02 monitors and for determining approach to Primary Containment Pressure Limit A. Vortex limits are to be considered but are a function of suppression pool level and pump flow, not pool or airspace temperature. Choice B: Plausible because drywell pressure is utilized in the same PCCP leg when determining actions for securing H2/02 monitors and for determining approach to Primary Containment Pressure Limit A. Choice C: Plausible because vortex limits are to be considered but are a function of suppression pool level and pump flow, not pool or airspace temperature. Choice D: Correct answer, see explanation.

This pressure is a function of primary containment water level, and is utilized to assure the pressure suppression function of the containment is maintained while the reactor is at pressure (Figure 7).

are 12 mils for bearings 1-8 and 10 mils for 9 & 10. This requires an immediate turbine trip per OP-26, Section 5.4.2. If reactor power is greater than 26% then a reactor scram will occur when the turbine is tripped. Operator actions call for scramming the reactor first, then tripping the turbine. In the described conditions, a scram is not required since power is below 26%.

RFPT and Speed Control System: Loss of signal from the DFCS
Reference:
None Cog Level: High Explanation: For Brunswick a TDRFP lockup is being met by the loss of signal locking the RFP controls at the last known signal. IF RFPT B(A) MAN/DFCS selector switch is in DFCS, AND the DFCS control signal subsequently drops below 2450 rpm, OR increases to greater than 5450 rpm, THEN Woodward 5009 digital controls will automatically assume RFPT speed control and maintain current speed. In this condition, the RFPT will only respond to LOWER/RAISE speed control switch commands
Distractor Analysis: Choice A: Plausible because the Woodward manual control signal automatically tracks the DFCS output signal. Although this failure mechanism no longer exists, a drop in speed to the idle speed setpoint is a failure that used to be associated with a loss of hydraulic oil pressure. Choice B: Plausible because the DFCS control signal has failed. With the DFCS Control light out, the REP is under manual control of the Woodward governor and adjusting the output of the individual REP Speed Controller will have no effect.

The Pretilter compartment is equipped with two switches per train. Switches VA-TS-5301 (VA-TS-5296) actuate at 21 OF to secure the Fan and Heater if the train is operating. Local and remote lights indicate actuation of the temperature switches. The system starter circuit must be manuafly reset after actuation of these switches and after the temperature has dropped to less than the set point by momentarily placing the train selector switch to the RESET position. (TS-2) Switches VA-TS-5300 (VA-TS 5295) actuate at 180 F to control the heater to regulate the train inlet temperature when the Fan is running. Local and remote lights indicate temperature switch actuation. SD-iC Rev. 7 Page 17 of 381 3.2.1 Control Room: RTGB XU-51 The four-position, RESET? SYST A(B) PREF I STBY? ON, selector switch controls the status of the SBGT train. The RESET position is a momentary contact position with spring-return to the SYST A (B) PREF position. The other three positions are maintained contact positions. The RESET position allows resetting the Starter Circuit when a manual reset is required following actuation of the Prefilter Compartment high temperature switches at 21 OF. The SBGT A (B) PREF position enables the train to start automatically if an initiation signal is present. Placing the switch in the ON position will start the Fan provided all other start permissives are met. The STANDBY position is misleading in that, with the switch in this position, the train is tiQI placed in the condition where it is ready to automatically start. Instead, the automatic start feature is defeated. I SD-IC I Rev.7 Pagei4of38

- Over Voltage.
Reference:
None Modified question from the NRC 10-2 exam. (262002_14) The previous question asked the power supply while this question asks the action required. Cog Level: High
Explanation: Overvoltage or undervoltage on the UPS inverter output will cause an automatic transfer of the UPS loads. In normal alignment, the primary UPS will be in service supplying loads and the standby UPS will be energized. However, the standby UPS alignment is such that it will not automatically pick up the loads if the primary unit fails. This protects the standby unit from automatically tying onto a faulted bus. The transfer scheme instead automatically transfers the loads to the Division II AC source (hard source). The standby inverter must be manually placed in service. This configuration protects the standby UPS but results in vulnerability in that if the Division II AC source is lost, the UPS loads would be deenergized. APP-UA-06 6-9, UPS Transfer to reserve, provides direction to place the UPS loads on an operable inverter. Since the primary inverter is inoperable, the standby inverter would be placed in service. Distractor Analysis: Choice A: Plausible because the original design of the system was to have the standby inverter automatically pick up the loads. OP-52 provides a procedure section to transfer UPS loads to the alternate source. Choice B: Plausible because the original design of the system was to have the standby inverter automatically pick up the loads. OP-52 provides a procedure section to transfer UPS loads to the alternate source. Inverter power supplies are from 2CA and 2CB. Choice C: Plausible because MCC 2CA is the normal (and only) AC power supply to the primary inverter. However, there is no hard connection or procedure instructions to align 2CA directly to the loads. APP-UA-06 6-9 directs transferring UPS loads to an operable inverter. Choice D: Correct answer, see explanation SRO Basis: N/A SD-52 I .&3. Uriinterruptible Power Supplies Each units Vital UPS System consists of a vital bus (Distribution Panel 1A!2A), a primary unit, and a standby unit. The primary and standby units are each capable of supplying the total UPS load. Only one UPS unit will be in service at a time with the other unit being available as a backup. If the primary unit fails, the UPS loads are automatically transferred to the alternate AC source. If desired, the loads can then be manually transferred to the standby UPS unit.
_rt-i +/- LLar -. The UPS system is normally aligned as follows: The primary unit is in service with its output connected to the UPS distribution system. Its rectifier receives 480 VAC power from a Division I emergency distribution panel. A 250 VDC from DC Switchboard 1A (2A) is supplied in parallel with the rectifier output to power the inverter should the normal AC source be lost. The alternate AC source from the standby unit is available at the static transfer switch to pick up the loads if the inverter output is lost. I The standby unit is also energized with its 480 VAC input supplied from a Division II emergency distribution panel and its 250 VDC supplied from DC Switchboard 16 (2B); but, its output is bypassed by its manual bypass switch and its alternate AC input is being supplied directly to the primary unit. The standby unit receives its alternate AC source of power from the same Division II distribution panel as its rectifier AC input through a 480-120/208 VAC transformer. The standby units alternate AC input is also referred to as the hard source.

The switch performs a transfer between the power sources using solid state components; allowing a faster transfer than could be accomplished by a mechanical switch. The switching action itself is practically instantaneous, and the time involved in the operation is mainly the sensing time required to determine that a transfer is necessary. normally a small fraction of a cycle. The switch receives an inverter input through the inverter output breaker, CB1 02, and a input from a alternate AC source. The switch is normally aligned such that the inverter output is supplying the system loads. Should the inverter output voltage drop below or increase above a preset level the static transfer switch will automatically transfer to the alternate AC source. Both a high or a low output voltage could affect equipment operating characteristics and lead to equipment damage. t

the Condenser Air Removal/Augmented Offgas system: Process Radiation Monitoring.
Reference:
None Modified question from 10-1 NRC exam. (272000_i) The previous question focused on the time delay while this question focuses on the signal. Cog Level: Low Explanation: Steam Jet Air Ejector offgas is monitored for radiation levels and the output is provided to the off-gas system logic for alarms and automatic actuation signals. A number of signals, including off-gas radiation levels, will cause off-gas system actuations in the form of bed bypass, bypass closure, and bed isolation. If SJAE offgas radiation reaches a preset value, a 15 minute timer is initiated. If the condition still exists after the timer times out, the AOG Bypass Valve (HCV-1 02) will receive a closed signal to ensure all offgas flow is being routed through the AOG filters and charcoal beds. This ensures proper filtration of the off-gas and prevents the release of radioactive materials to the environment.
iI::r Distractor Analysis: Choice A: Correct Answer, see explanation Choice B: Plausible because this is a radiation alarm associated with the Off Gas system. Choice C: Plausible because this is a radiation alarm associated with the Off Gas system. Choice D: Plausible because this is a radiation alarm associated with the Off Gas system.

The instrument provides personnel with a front panel display indication of the detected radiation level and supplies this radiation level signal to the system recorder for permanent record. The log radiation monitor also drives four trip circuits which actuate annunciators, initiates the off-gas timer which, after 15 minutes, initiates closure of 1(2)AOG-HCV-i 02 if the radiation level becomes excessively high.

SRO Basis: N/A SD-27.2 A trip circuit is installed on both units to automatically protect the generator on a loss of stator cooling. Additionally stator cooling water conductivity limits are provided for continued operation of the generator. On a loss of stator water cooling flow, the main turbine must be tripped after 60 minutes if initial conductivity was less than 0.5 pmhosfcm. If initial conductivity was greater than 0.6 iimhos/cm, then the turbine must be tripped within 3 minutes. The automatic Stator Coolant Trip Circuit initiates whenever generator armature amperage is greater than 6018 amps, and any of the following conditions occur:
- System flow is less than 423 444 gpm
- System pressure is less than 37.6 (U-I), 36.3 (U-2) +/-2 psig
- Coolant temperature exceeds 82-84C Once actuated, the trip circuit relays will energize causing actuation of a 2 minute timer if amps are above 19814 and a 3 1/2 minute timer if amps are above 6018. The trip circuit relays, when energized, will also actuate an annunciator, UA-02 1-9, LOSS OF STATOR COOLANT TRIP CIRCUIT ENER, and open a contact in the EHC load reference motors increase circuitry to prevent load increase.
The 2 minute timer will trip the turbine when timed out if stator amps are not <18823 amps. The 3.5 minute timer will trip the turbine when timed out if stator amps are not <5717 amps. The trip circuit, once energized, will remain energized until the timer(s) actuate, until the amperage reduction is achieved, or until the degraded condition is corrected.

- 1. The event causing the main Control Room to become uninhabitable is assumed to be such that all operators are able to leave the Control Room and assemble at the remote shutdown panel to receive necessary keys:
headsets: and procedures, which are maintained in the shutdown panel. (Security will maintain an extra set of keys): and to assist in the remote shutdown.
- 2. The Shift Manager will order a manual reactor scram, turbine trip, and main steam isolation valves closure prior to Control Room evacuation or go to the battery room and open EPA breakers for RPS MG5 and alternate power supply.
- 3. The emergency AC buses are energized by the preferred off-site power supply. No loss of off-site power is considered after the start of the emergency in this procedure.
- 4. No accident occurred concurrent with the event which required evacuation of the Control Room so that control of engineered safeguards systems from a backup control center will not be required.
- 5. DC services are supplied from at least one plant DC power system for each essential system or equipment required for remote shutdown.
- 6. All support systems are in normal lineups, operating normally, and continue to operate normally throughout the emergency.
- 7. Nothing abnormal in the plant between the time of Control Room evacuation and reporting to assigned stations occurs which would deteriorate conditions of the reactor to the point that immediate local action is required on reaching the station.

t LSfl ant -t,j. 4.0 GENERAL DISCUSSION This procedure provides instructions to place the plant in cold shutdown condition from outside the Control Room. The manual reactor scram and main steam isolation will automatically bring the RCIC, H PCI, and reactor relief valves into operation. This will place the reactor in hot shutdown condition. During this phase of shutdown: the suppression pool will be cooled as required by manually placing the RHR system in the suppression pool cooling mode. Reactor pressure will be controlled and core decay and sensible heat rejected to the suppression pool by steam flow to HPCI and RCIC and by dumping steam through the relief valves. Reactor water inventory will be maintained initially by both RCIC and HPCI systems and later by the RCIC system during the pressure reduction period. This procedure will cool the reactor and reduce its pressure at a controlled rate until reactor pressure becomes so low that the relief valves will close or RCIC system will discontinue operation. This condition will be reached at 50-1 00 psig reactor pressure. One control rod drive pump will be used to maintain rod drives cool and augment the RCIC system: and till be available to maintain level after the RCIC system has been secured. At this time: RHR is manually placed in shutdown cooling to bring the reactor to a cold shutdown condition. The manual control of the equipment required for the above operation (refer to Table 1 for Units 1 and 2) is achieved by operating the control switches located on the individual breaker compartment doors. The key locked NORMAL/LOCAL selector switch is placed in LOCAL position and its START/STOP or OPEN/CLOSE local control switch is operated to control equipment required for remote shutdown

Service Water System: Diesel Generator Cooling Water Supply Valves
Reference:
None Cog Level: High Explanation: Divisional start signal will auto start both DG I and 3. If service water pressure upstream of the jacket water heater exchanger remains below 5.6 psig for 30 seconds then the alternate unit supply valve (in this case Unit 2) will open and the normal supply valve will close. Since DG 3 service water is normally from Unit 2, and Unit 2 service water system is intact, the normal supply from Unit 2 will remain in service. For DG 1, the Unit I service water header is depressurized due to the rupture, therefore cooling water for DG 1 will align to the Unit Two Nuclear Service Water header.
1II1Z IL I1 I L1WIIIIRIIIIILi Distractor Analysis: Choice A: Plausible because if 1D 4160 deenergizes while UAT is energized (Unit online or in UAT backfeed), then only DG I would start on loss of E-Bus voltage. Unit two nuclear service water will automatically supply the diesel due to loss of Unit one nuclear service water. Choice B: Plausible because if 1D 4160 deenergizes while UAT is energized (Unit online or in UAT backfeed), then only DG 1 would start on loss of E-Bus voltage. Without a casualty, conventional service water may be available to supply the nuclear header if aligned manually or aligned for auto start on the nuclear header. Choice C: Correct answer, see explanation Choice D: Plausible because UAT is deenergized during startup prior to synchronizing the generator to the grid, If ID 4160 deenergizes while UAT is deenergized then a divisional DG start would result (DG 1 & 3). SRO Basis: N/A From SD-39.0, Emergency Diesel Generators 2.7 Diesel Generator Service Water (Figure 39-7) Two service water supply lines provide service water to tile tube side of each EDG set jacket water cooler. Each units Nuclear Service VIater (NSW) System provides an independent source to all four Diesels. Diesel generator sfart and speed increase above 500 rpm opens the valve from the respective units NSW header. Should the service water pressure upstream of the jacket water heat exchanger remain below 5.6 psig for 30 seconds wrien the valve is open the alternate unit supply valve will open, then the normal supply valve will close. When the engine is shutdown and speed drops below 500 rpm the open valve will close. This switching sequence is initiated any time service water flr is lost when an EDG set is operating. Return flow of service water from all four jacket water coolers is routed to a common return line which discharges to SW Outfall Collection Tank via an 18 CPVC line. 3.2.4 Automatic Start
- 3. A EDG auto start signal will be generated for EDGS I and 3 (2 and 4) if any one of the following conditions exists (Figure 39-13):
- Loss of 1C or 2C 4160 BUS will cause EDGs. 2 & 4 to start
- Loss of 1 D or 2D 41 60V BUS will cause EDGs 1 & 3 to start The loss of BOP bus is sensed by undervoltage on the secondary side of the UAT with the UAT to D(C) bus breaker open OR undervoltage on the secondary side of the SAT with the SAT to D(C) bus breaker open AND BOP bus undervoltage.

Reference:
None Modified question from 10-1 NRC exam. (Equipment control_33). Question was modified to ask the conditions instead of given the conditions. Cog Level: High Explanation: The CRD system is designed so that primary coolant pressure assists in driving control rods into the core upon receipt of a reactor scram. If low reactor pressure exists then
,
accumulator pressure alone may not be sufficient to ensure control rods will insert. HCU low pressure alarms in the control room indicate either low accumulator pressure or high water level in the accumulator. AOP-02 conservatively assumes low pressure and directs a scram upon receipt of the alarm if reactor pressure is below 950 psig and CRD pressure cannot be restored to 940 psig or greater with either CRD pump.

Choice C: Plausible because if reactor pressure was greater than 950 psig and two accumulator alarm were received, action to restore pressure is required. Choice D: Plausible because if reactor pressure was greater than 950 psig and two accumulator alarm were received, action to restore pressure is required.

The system is designed so that primary coolant system pressure or accumulator pressure is available to scram the reactor AOP-02.0 should be consulted for specific actions to be performed. The AOP requires a manual scram if no CRD pump is operating, reactor pressure is less than 950 psig, and an HCU accumulator has low pressure. This is to ensure that the control rods can be inserted before accumulators depressurize since a scram on reactor pressure alone cannot be assured if reactor pressure is low. AOP-02

The calculation for the NPSH to the Core Spray and RHR pumps specify establishing cooling at ten minutes into the design basis LOCA. The calculation also assumes that the temperature of the suppression pool will be at approximately 1 69T at ten minutes. If containment cooling is not established at a suppression pool temperature of 169°F, then it is possible that the Core Spray or RI-IR pumps will be lost due to inadequate NPSH. The EPGs specify injecting irrespective of NPSH and vortex limits if reactor vessel water level is below Minimum Steam Cooling Reactor Water Level. This step provides guidance to reduce injection into the reactor vessel to establish the desired cooling for the containment. A value of 150°F has been selected for use in the step. This provides a margin of at least 19°F, to the limit used in the calculation for NPSH. These actions are incorporated to provide assurance that the unit can remain in the EOPs and not be required to go to primary containment flooding prematurely.

This determination may be made when, before, or after the temperature actually reaches 300°F. It is not expected that either the containment integrity (300°F) or SRV operability (340°F) will be immediately challenged when the respective temperature limits are reached. If drywell temperature is already above 300F when Step DWIT-1 6 and DWIT-i 9 are reached, drywen sprays may still be used, it available, in preference to emergency depressurization. If sprays are effective in reducing the drywell temperature, emergency depressurization need not be pertormed.

following conditions: High/low Suppression Pool water level.
Reference:
None Cog Level: High Explanation: lAW PCCP, if torus level cannot be maintained below 6 inches and adequate core cooling is assured, injection from sources external to containment are terminated (SP/L-1 0). Reactor water level of 185 inches rising assures adequate core cooling. HPCI suction path will automatically align to the torus IF a low CST level exists OR a high torus level exists. In the conditions described, HPCI suction will have aligned to the torus so its injection is from an internal source. RCIC suction path will automatically align to the torus IF a low CST level exists but will NOT align to the torus on a high torus level so its injection supply is from external sources (CST) and must be secured lAW SP/L-1 0. Drywell spray and torus spray are running and would not be secured by procedure until drywell pressure lowers to 2.5 psig. Drywell spray would be secured if suppression pool level cannot be maintained below 21 inches.
1IIt!1II1L!1!1LQ L Distractor Analysis: Choice A: Plausible because SP/L-15 of PCCP requires securing injection sources external to containment. Systems being used for boron injection and CRD exception to this. Choice B: Correct Answer, see explanation Choice C: Plausible because HPCI injection is one of the sources of level control. SPIL-28 requires securing of HPCI if torus level cannot be maintained above minus 6.5 feet. Choice D: Plausible because these systems are providing input to containment and the vessel.

Reference:
OEOP-01-UG, Attachment 5, Figures 5 & 6, Core Spray & RHR NPSH Limit. Bank question that was last used on the 08 NRC exam. Cog Level: High EXPLANATION: The student will need to plot each point on NPSH limit graph. Torus pressure must be corrected down 0.5 psig to obtain the proper restriction line. The correct torus pressure is 10.5 psig -0.5 psig = 10 psig. This correction must be performed for both the RHR and CS graphs.
_F_1 L iI!IIIII1IIYIII Distractor Analysis: Choice A: Correct answer, see explanation. Choice B: Plausible because if the student fails to adjust torus pressure on RHR and CS graphs and thinks that above the line is the safe region then this answer would be correct. Choice C: Plausible because if the student fails to adjust torus pressure on RHR and CS graphs, this answer would be correct. Choice D: Plausible because if the student believes that above the line is the safe region then this answer would be correct.

Reference:
None Cog Level: High Explanation: ADM-NGGC-0206 calculates work week limits on rolling time periods of 24 hours1 days <br />0.143 weeks <br />0.0329 months <br />, 48 hours2 days <br />0.286 weeks <br />0.0658 months <br /> and 7 days (168 hours7 days <br />1 weeks <br />0.23 months <br />). These time periods do not reset following a day off but continue to roll. The limitations specified in the procedure are: 16 hours0.667 days <br />0.0952 weeks <br />0.0219 months <br /> in any 24 hrs, 26 hours1.083 days <br />0.155 weeks <br />0.0356 months <br /> in any 48 hours2 days <br />0.286 weeks <br />0.0658 months <br />, and 72 hours3 days <br />0.429 weeks <br />0.0986 months <br /> in any seven days. Turnover time is excluded. A difference exists in the 72 hour calculation if the work is being performed during an outage. In that case, the 72 hour limit may be considered on a calendar day period instead of rolling. In the example given, work hours are exceeded on day 8 (27 hours1.125 days <br />0.161 weeks <br />0.037 months <br /> in 48), on the seven days from day 1 through day 7 (73 hours3.042 days <br />0.435 weeks <br />0.1 months <br /> in one week), and on the seven days from day 2 through day 8 (75 hours3.125 days <br />0.446 weeks <br />0.103 months <br /> in one week). Taking day seven off would clear the excessive hours from day 8, and both rolling weeks.
Distractor Analysis: Choice A: Plausible because taking day one off would clear the excessive hours from the seven day period from day 1 through day 7. However, the second seven day period from day 2 through day 8 and day 8 hours0.333 days <br />0.0476 weeks <br />0.011 months <br /> are still excessive. Choice B: Correct Answer, see explanation Choice C: Plausible because working 12 hours0.5 days <br />0.0714 weeks <br />0.0164 months <br /> on day 7 would clear the excessive hours on day 8 and would also clear the excessive hours on the seven day period from day I through day 7. However, the hours during the seven day period from day 2 through day 8 would still be excessive. Choice D: Plausible because working 13 hours0.542 days <br />0.0774 weeks <br />0.0178 months <br /> on day 8 would clear the excessive hours on day 8 and the seven day period from day 2 through day 8. However, the hours during seven day period from day 1 through day 7 would still be excessive. SRO Basis: N/A ADM-NGGC-0206 9.2 Covered Worker Work Hour Controls 9.21 On-Line Work Hour Limits

Reference:
None Bank question that was last used on the 08 NRC exam. Cog Level: Low Explanation: With the reactor head bolts less than fully tensioned the plant is in Mode 5 provided the Mode switch is in Shutdown or Refuel. As head bolts are being tensioned the plant is still in Mode 5. When the last head bolt is fully tensioned the plant will transition from Mode 5 to Mode 4 provided the Mode switch is in Shutdown. If the Mode switch is left in Refuel this would transition the plant from Mode 5 to Mode 2 (and most likely constitute a violation of LCO 3.0.4) Distractor Analysis: Choice A: Plausible since mode transition from Mode 5 to Mode 4 occurs during head bolt tensioning and the Mode switch can be in Shutdown or Refuel for Mode 5 (if in Refuel when the last bolt tensioned, transition is from 5 to 2, not 5 to 4) Choice B: Plausible since mode transition from Mode 5 to Mode 4 occurs when the last head bolt is tensioned and the Mode switch can be in Shutdown or Refuel for Mode 5 (if in Refuel when the last bolt tensioned, transition is from 5 to 2, not 5 to 4) Choice C: Plausible since the Mode Switch position is correct and the transition occurs during tensioning of head bolts Choice D: Correct Answer, see explanation SRO Basis: N/A

Reference:
None Bank question that was last used on the 04 NRC exam. Cog Level: High Explanation: PCCP hydrogen leg directs venting and purging primary containment only within ODCM limits when H2 concentration is above 1% provided 02 concentration remains below 4%. Venting from the torus is preferred due to scrubbing of iodine by the pool.
Distractor Analysis: Choice A: Correct answer, see explanation Choice B: Plausible because 02 concentration is below 4%, so venting would be within limits. Venting of drywell would be appropriate if torus water level was higher (+6 ft). Choice C: Plausible because if 02 concentration was 4% or greater PCCP directs CAD initiation and venting lAW OP-24 which vents irrespective of release limits. Choice D: Plausible because if 02 concentration was 4% or greater PCCP directs CAD initiation and venting lAW 0P-24 which vents irrespective of release limits. Venting of drywell would be appropriate if torus water level was higher (+6 ft). SRO Basis: N/A EOP-02-PCCP IC B
