BACKGROUND The RTS initiates a unit shutdown, based on the values of selected unit parameters, to protect against violating the core fuel design limits and Reactor Coolant System (RCS) pressure boundary during anticipated 2 operational occurrences (AOOs) and to assist the Engineered Safety Features (ESF) Systems in mitigating accidents.
The protection and monitoring systems have been designed to assure safe operation of the reactor. This is achieved by specifying limiting P

Where a LSSS is specified for a variable on LSSS are Technical Specifications are required by 10 CFR 50.36 to contain LSSS which a safety limit has been placed, the setting defined by the regulation as "...settings for automatic protective must be chosen so that devices...so chosen that automatic protective action will correct the Analytical protective abnormal situation before a Safety Limit (SL) is exceeded." The Analytic actions Limit is the limit of the process variable at which a safety action is initiated, as established by the safety analysis, to ensure that a SL is not Analytical exceeded. Any automatic protection action that occurs on reaching the Analytic Limit therefore ensures that the SL is not exceeded. However, in practice, the actual settings for automatic protective devices must be protection channels chosen to be more conservative than the Analytic Limit to account for Analytical instrument loop uncertainties related to the setting at which the automatic INSERT 1 2 protective action would actually occur.

[Nominal Trip Setpoint The trip setpoint is a predetermined setting for a protective device chosen (NTSP)] specified in the SCP to ensure automatic actuation prior to the process variable reaching the protection channel Analytical Analytic Limit and thus ensuring that the SL would not be exceeded. As such, the trip setpoint accounts for uncertainties in setting the device channel

(e.g., calibration), uncertainties in how the device might actually perform (e.g., repeatability), changes in the point of action of the device over time (e.g., drift during surveillance intervals), and any other factors which may influence its actual performance (e.g., harsh accident environments). In

Technical Specifications contain values related to the OPERABILITY of equipment required for safe operation of the facility. OPERABLE is defined in Technical Specifications as "...being capable of performing its safety functions(s)." For automatic protective devices, the required safety function is to ensure that a SL is not exceeded and therefore the LSSS as defined by 10 CFR 50.36 is the same as the OPERABILITY limit for these Relying solely on devices. However, use of the trip setpoint to define OPERABILITY in [NTSP]
Technical Specifications and its corresponding designation as the LSSS required by 10 CFR 50.36 would be an overly restrictive requirement if it were applied as an OPERABILITY limit for the "as found" value of a -
protection channel protective device setting during a surveillance. This would result in Technical Specification compliance problems, as well as reports and 2 corrective actions required by the rule which are not necessary to ensure safety. For example, an automatic protective device with a setting that [NTSP]
has been found to be different from the trip setpoint due to some drift of the setting may still be OPERABLE since drift is to be expected. This expected drift would have been specifically accounted for in the setpoint methodology for calculating the trip setpoint and thus the automatic protection protective action would still have ensured that the SL would not be channel exceeded with the "as found" setting of the protective device. Therefore, the device would still be OPERABLE since it would have performed its channel safety function and the only corrective action required would be to reset the device to the trip setpoint to account for further drift during the next channel within [NTSP]
surveillance interval.
established as-left tolerance around the Use of the trip setpoint to define "as found" OPERABILITY and its designation as the LSSS under the expected circumstances described above would result in actions required by both the rule and Technical Specifications that are clearly not warranted. However, there is also some point beyond which the device would have not been able to perform 2 its function due, for example, to greater than expected drift. This value needs to be specified in the Technical Specifications in order to define OPERABILITY of the devices and is designated as the Allowable Value which, as stated above, is the same as the LSSS.
The Allowable Value specified in Table 3.3.1-1 serves as the LSSS such that a channel is OPERABLE if the trip setpoint is found not to exceed the Allowable Value during the CHANNEL OPERATIONAL TEST (COT). As such, the Allowable Value differs from the trip setpoint by an amount 2 primarily equal to the expected instrument loop uncertainties, such as drift, during the surveillance interval. In this manner, the actual setting of the device will still meet the LSSS definition and ensure that a SL WOG STS B 3.3.1-2 Rev. 3.0, 03/31/04 Enclosure (7 of 8), Q&A to Attachment 1, Volume 8 (Section 3.3) Page 5 of 501

NTSPs derived from Signal Process Control and Protection System Analytical Limits (ALs) 2 Generally, three or four channels of process control equipment are used for the signal processing of unit parameters measured by the field instruments. The process control equipment provides signal conditioning, comparable output signals for instruments located on the main control ALs board, and comparison of measured input signals with setpoints U 2
the established by safety analyses. These setpoints are defined in FSAR, Chapter [7] (Ref. 2), Chapter [6] (Ref. 3), and Chapter [15] (Ref. 4). If the 14 measured value of a unit parameter exceeds the predetermined setpoint, reactor protection an output from a bistable is forwarded to the SSPS for decision logic rack evaluation. Channel separation is maintained up to and through the input bays. However, not all unit parameters require four channels of sensor reactor protection measurement and signal processing. Some unit parameters provide reactor protection logic rack logic rack input only to the SSPS, while others provide input to the SSPS, the main control board, the unit computer, and one or more control systems.
Generally, if a parameter is used only for input to the protection circuits, three channels with a two-out-of-three logic are sufficient to provide the required reliability and redundancy. If one channel fails in a direction that would not result in a partial Function trip, the Function is still OPERABLE with a two-out-of-two logic. If one channel fails, such that a partial Function trip occurs, a trip will not occur and the Function is still OPERABLE with a one-out-of-two logic. reactor protection logic rack Generally, if a parameter is used for input to the SSPS and a control function, four channels with a two-out-of-four logic are sufficient to provide the required reliability and redundancy. The circuit must be able to withstand both an input failure to the control system, which may then require the protection function actuation, and a single failure in the other channels providing the protection function actuation. Again, a single failure will neither cause nor prevent the protection function actuation.
1968 These requirements are described in IEEE-279-1971 (Ref. 5). The actual number of channels required for each unit parameter is specified in Reference 2.
At least P Two logic channels are required to ensure no single random failure of a logic channel will disable the RTS. The logic channels are designed such that testing required while the reactor is at power may be accomplished without causing trip. Provisions to allow removing logic channels from service during maintenance are unnecessary because of the logic system's designed reliability.

Nominal Trip the Allowable Values and RTS Setpoints Nominal Trip Setpoints calculation The trip setpoints used in the bistables are based on the analytical limits stated in Reference 2. The selection of these trip setpoints is such that adequate protection is provided when all sensor and processing time delays are taken into account. To allow for calibration tolerances, P
instrumentation uncertainties, instrument drift, and severe environment errors for those RTS channels that must function in harsh environments as defined by 10 CFR 50.49 (Ref. 6), the Allowable Values specified in the SCP Table 3.3.1-1 in the accompanying LCO are conservative with respect to the analytical limits. A detailed description of the methodology used to 2
calculate the Allowable Values and trip setpoints, including their explicit uncertainties, is provided in the "RTS/ESFAS Setpoint Methodology

The magnitudes of these uncertainties are band methodology is provided in Ref. xyz. factored into the determination of each trip setpoint and corresponding Allowable Value. The trip setpoint entered into the bistable is more the SCP 7 conservative than that specified by the Allowable Value (LSSS) to account for measurement errors detectable by the COT. The Allowable as-found Value serves as the Technical Specification OPERABILITY limit for the purpose of the COT. One example of such a change in measurement STET w/changes error is drift during the surveillance interval. If the measured setpoint does not exceed the Allowable Value, the bistable is considered OPERABLE.

The trip setpoint is the value at which the bistable is set and is the [NTSP]

The trip setpoint value ensures is ensures the LSSS and the safety analysis limits are met for surveillance the interval selected when a channel is adjusted based on stated channel uncertainties.

Note that the Allowable Values listed in the SCP are the least conservative value of the as-found setpoint that a channel can have during a periodic CHANNEL CALIBRATION, CHANNEL OPERATIONAL TEST, or a TRIP ACTUATING DEVICE OPERATIONAL TEST that requires trip setpoint verification.

RPIR During normal operation the output from the SSPS is a voltage signal that energizes the undervoltage coils in the RTBs and bypass breakers, if in RPIR use. When the required logic matrix combination is completed, the SSPS output voltage signal is removed, the undervoltage coils are de-energized, the breaker trip lever is actuated by the de-energized undervoltage coil, and the RTBs and bypass breakers are tripped open.
This allows the shutdown rods and control rods to fall into the core. In addition to the de-energization of the undervoltage coils, each breaker is also equipped with a shunt trip device that is energized to trip the breaker RPIR open upon receipt of a reactor trip signal from the SSPS. Either the undervoltage coil or the shunt trip mechanism is sufficient by itself, thus providing a diverse trip mechanism.
2 The decision logic matrix Functions are described in the functional diagrams included in Reference 3. In addition to the reactor trip or ESF, 10 these diagrams also describe the various "permissive interlocks" that are associated with unit conditions. Each train has a built in testing device panel channels that can automatically test the decision logic matrix Functions and the actuation devices while the unit is at power. When any one train is taken 2 out of service for testing, the other train is capable of providing unit monitoring and protection until the testing has been completed. The testing device is semiautomatic to minimize testing time.

SR 3.3.1.11 INSERT 8 SR 3.3.1.11 is the performance of a CHANNEL CALIBRATION, as described in SR 3.3.1.10, every [18] months. This SR is modified by a 4 Note stating that neutron detectors are excluded from the CHANNEL INSERT 8 CALIBRATION. The CHANNEL CALIBRATION for the power range 2 neutron detectors consists of a normalization of the detectors based on a power calorimetric and flux map performed above 15% RTP. The CHANNEL CALIBRATION for the source range and intermediate range neutron detectors consists of obtaining the detector plateau or preamp discriminator curves, evaluating those curves, and comparing the curves to the manufacturer's data. This Surveillance is not required for the NIS power range detectors for entry into MODE 2 or 1, and is not required for the NIS intermediate range detectors for entry into MODE 2, because the unit must be in at least MODE 2 to perform the test for the intermediate range detectors and MODE 1 for the power range detectors. The
[18] month Frequency is based on the need to perform this Surveillance 4 under the conditions that apply during a plant outage and the potential for an unplanned transient if the Surveillance were performed with the reactor at power. Operating experience has shown these components usually pass the Surveillance when performed on the [18] month 4 Frequency.
SR 3.3.1.12 SR 3.3.1.12 is the performance of a CHANNEL CALIBRATION, as ¶ INSERT 9 described in SR 3.3.1.10, every [18] months. This SR is modified by a 4 2 Note stating that this test shall include verification of the RCS resistance temperature detector (RTD) bypass loop flow rate. Whenever a sensing element is replaced, the next required CHANNEL CALIBRATION of the resistance temperature detectors (RTD) sensors is accomplished by an inplace cross calibration that compares the other sensing elements with the recently installed sensing element.
This test will verify the rate lag compensation for flow from the core to the RTDs.
The Frequency is justified by the assumption of an 18 month calibration interval in the determination of the magnitude of equipment drift in the setpoint analysis.

BACKGROUND The RTS initiates a unit shutdown, based on the values of selected unit parameters, to protect against violating the core fuel design limits and Reactor Coolant System (RCS) pressure boundary during anticipated 2 operational occurrences (AOOs) and to assist the Engineered Safety Features (ESF) Systems in mitigating accidents.

Where a LSSS is specified for a variable on LSSS are Technical Specifications are required by 10 CFR 50.36 to contain LSSS which a safety limit has been placed, the setting defined by the regulation as "...settings for automatic protective must be chosen so that devices...so chosen that automatic protective action will correct the Analytical protective abnormal situation before a Safety Limit (SL) is exceeded." The Analytic actions Limit is the limit of the process variable at which a safety action is initiated, as established by the safety analysis, to ensure that a SL is not Analytical exceeded. Any automatic protection action that occurs on reaching the Analytic Limit therefore ensures that the SL is not exceeded. However, in practice, the actual settings for automatic protective devices must be protection channels chosen to be more conservative than the Analytic Limit to account for Analytical instrument loop uncertainties related to the setting at which the automatic INSERT 1 2 protective action would actually occur.

Technical Specifications contain values related to the OPERABILITY of equipment required for safe operation of the facility. OPERABLE is defined in Technical Specifications as "...being capable of performing its safety functions(s)." For automatic protective devices, the required safety function is to ensure that a SL is not exceeded and therefore the LSSS as defined by 10 CFR 50.36 is the same as the OPERABILITY limit for these Relying solely on devices. However, use of the trip setpoint to define OPERABILITY in [NTSP]
Technical Specifications and its corresponding designation as the LSSS required by 10 CFR 50.36 would be an overly restrictive requirement if it were applied as an OPERABILITY limit for the "as found" value of a -
protection channel protective device setting during a surveillance. This would result in Technical Specification compliance problems, as well as reports and 2 corrective actions required by the rule which are not necessary to ensure safety. For example, an automatic protective device with a setting that [NTSP]
has been found to be different from the trip setpoint due to some drift of the setting may still be OPERABLE since drift is to be expected. This expected drift would have been specifically accounted for in the setpoint methodology for calculating the trip setpoint and thus the automatic protection protective action would still have ensured that the SL would not be channel exceeded with the "as found" setting of the protective device. Therefore, the device would still be OPERABLE since it would have performed its channel safety function and the only corrective action required would be to reset the device to the trip setpoint to account for further drift during the next channel within [NTSP]
surveillance interval.
established as-left tolerance around the Use of the trip setpoint to define "as found" OPERABILITY and its designation as the LSSS under the expected circumstances described above would result in actions required by both the rule and Technical Specifications that are clearly not warranted. However, there is also some point beyond which the device would have not been able to perform 2 its function due, for example, to greater than expected drift. This value needs to be specified in the Technical Specifications in order to define OPERABILITY of the devices and is designated as the Allowable Value which, as stated above, is the same as the LSSS.
The Allowable Value specified in Table 3.3.1-1 serves as the LSSS such that a channel is OPERABLE if the trip setpoint is found not to exceed the Allowable Value during the CHANNEL OPERATIONAL TEST (COT). As such, the Allowable Value differs from the trip setpoint by an amount 2 primarily equal to the expected instrument loop uncertainties, such as drift, during the surveillance interval.

NTSPs derived from Signal Process Control and Protection System Analytical Limits (ALs) 2 Generally, three or four channels of process control equipment are used for the signal processing of unit parameters measured by the field instruments. The process control equipment provides signal conditioning, comparable output signals for instruments located on the main control ALs board, and comparison of measured input signals with setpoints U 2
the established by safety analyses. These setpoints are defined in FSAR, Chapter [7] (Ref. 2), Chapter [6] (Ref. 3), and Chapter [15] (Ref. 4). If the 14 measured value of a unit parameter exceeds the predetermined setpoint, reactor protection an output from a bistable is forwarded to the SSPS for decision logic rack evaluation. Channel separation is maintained up to and through the input bays. However, not all unit parameters require four channels of sensor reactor protection measurement and signal processing. Some unit parameters provide reactor protection logic rack logic rack input only to the SSPS, while others provide input to the SSPS, the main control board, the unit computer, and one or more control systems.
Generally, if a parameter is used only for input to the protection circuits, three channels with a two-out-of-three logic are sufficient to provide the required reliability and redundancy. If one channel fails in a direction that would not result in a partial Function trip, the Function is still OPERABLE with a two-out-of-two logic. If one channel fails, such that a partial Function trip occurs, a trip will not occur and the Function is still OPERABLE with a one-out-of-two logic. reactor protection logic rack Generally, if a parameter is used for input to the SSPS and a control function, four channels with a two-out-of-four logic are sufficient to provide the required reliability and redundancy. The circuit must be able to withstand both an input failure to the control system, which may then require the protection function actuation, and a single failure in the other channels providing the protection function actuation. Again, a single failure will neither cause nor prevent the protection function actuation.
1968 These requirements are described in IEEE-279-1971 (Ref. 5). The actual number of channels required for each unit parameter is specified in Reference 2.
At least P Two logic channels are required to ensure no single random failure of a logic channel will disable the RTS. The logic channels are designed such that testing required while the reactor is at power may be accomplished without causing trip. Provisions to allow removing logic channels from service during maintenance are unnecessary because of the logic system's designed reliability.

Nominal Trip the Allowable Values and RTS Setpoints Nominal Trip Setpoints calculation The trip setpoints used in the bistables are based on the analytical limits stated in Reference 2. The selection of these trip setpoints is such that adequate protection is provided when all sensor and processing time delays are taken into account. To allow for calibration tolerances, P
instrumentation uncertainties, instrument drift, and severe environment errors for those RTS channels that must function in harsh environments as defined by 10 CFR 50.49 (Ref. 6), the Allowable Values specified in the SCP Table 3.3.1-1 in the accompanying LCO are conservative with respect to the analytical limits. A detailed description of the methodology used to 2
calculate the Allowable Values and trip setpoints, including their explicit uncertainties, is provided in the "RTS/ESFAS Setpoint Methodology

The trip setpoint entered into the bistable is more the SCP 7 conservative than that specified by the Allowable Value (LSSS) to account for measurement errors detectable by the COT. The Allowable as-found Value serves as the Technical Specification OPERABILITY limit for the purpose of the COT. One example of such a change in measurement STET w/changes error is drift during the surveillance interval. If the measured setpoint does not exceed the Allowable Value, the bistable is considered OPERABLE.

RPIR During normal operation the output from the SSPS is a voltage signal that energizes the undervoltage coils in the RTBs and bypass breakers, if in RPIR use. When the required logic matrix combination is completed, the SSPS output voltage signal is removed, the undervoltage coils are de-energized, the breaker trip lever is actuated by the de-energized undervoltage coil, and the RTBs and bypass breakers are tripped open.
This allows the shutdown rods and control rods to fall into the core. In addition to the de-energization of the undervoltage coils, each breaker is also equipped with a shunt trip device that is energized to trip the breaker RPIR open upon receipt of a reactor trip signal from the SSPS. Either the undervoltage coil or the shunt trip mechanism is sufficient by itself, thus providing a diverse trip mechanism.
2 The decision logic matrix Functions are described in the functional diagrams included in Reference 3. In addition to the reactor trip or ESF, 10 these diagrams also describe the various "permissive interlocks" that are associated with unit conditions. Each train has a built in testing device panel channels that can automatically test the decision logic matrix Functions and the actuation devices while the unit is at power.

Power Range Neutron Flux - High Positive Rate The Power Range Neutron Flux - High Positive Rate trip Function ensures that protection is provided against rapid increases in neutron flux that are characteristic of an RCCA drive rod housing rupture and the accompanying ejection of the RCCA. This Function compliments the Power Range Neutron Flux - High and Low Setpoint trip Functions to ensure that the criteria are met for a rod ejection from the power range.
The LCO requires all four of the Power Range Neutron Flux -
High Positive Rate channels to be OPERABLE.
In MODE 1 or 2, when there is a potential to add a large amount of positive reactivity from a rod ejection accident (REA), the Power Range Neutron Flux - High Positive Rate trip must be OPERABLE. In MODE 3, 4, 5, or 6, the Power Range Neutron P
Flux - High Positive Rate trip Function does not have to be OPERABLE because other RTS trip Functions and administrative controls will provide protection against positive reactivity additions. Also, since only the shutdown banks may be withdrawn in MODE 3, 4, or 5, the remaining complement of control bank worth ensures a sufficient degree of SDM in the event of an REA. In MODE 6, no rods are withdrawn and the SDM is increased during refueling operations. The reactor vessel head is also removed or the closure bolts are detensioned preventing any pressure buildup. In addition, the NIS power range detectors cannot detect neutron levels present in this mode.
- b. Power Range Neutron Flux - High Negative Rate The Power Range Neutron Flux - High Negative Rate trip Function ensures that protection is provided for multiple rod drop accidents. At high power levels, a multiple rod drop accident could cause local flux peaking that would result in an unconservative local DNBR.

SR 3.3.1.11 INSERT 8 SR 3.3.1.11 is the performance of a CHANNEL CALIBRATION, as described in SR 3.3.1.10, every [18] months. This SR is modified by a 4 Note stating that neutron detectors are excluded from the CHANNEL INSERT 8 CALIBRATION. The CHANNEL CALIBRATION for the power range 2 neutron detectors consists of a normalization of the detectors based on a power calorimetric and flux map performed above 15% RTP. The CHANNEL CALIBRATION for the source range and intermediate range neutron detectors consists of obtaining the detector plateau or preamp discriminator curves, evaluating those curves, and comparing the curves to the manufacturer's data. This Surveillance is not required for the NIS power range detectors for entry into MODE 2 or 1, and is not required for the NIS intermediate range detectors for entry into MODE 2, because the unit must be in at least MODE 2 to perform the test for the intermediate range detectors and MODE 1 for the power range detectors. The
[18] month Frequency is based on the need to perform this Surveillance 4 under the conditions that apply during a plant outage and the potential for an unplanned transient if the Surveillance were performed with the reactor at power. Operating experience has shown these components usually pass the Surveillance when performed on the [18] month 4 Frequency.
SR 3.3.1.12 SR 3.3.1.12 is the performance of a CHANNEL CALIBRATION, as ¶ INSERT 9 described in SR 3.3.1.10, every [18] months. This SR is modified by a 4 2 Note stating that this test shall include verification of the RCS resistance temperature detector (RTD) bypass loop flow rate. Whenever a sensing element is replaced, the next required CHANNEL CALIBRATION of the resistance temperature detectors (RTD) sensors is accomplished by an inplace cross calibration that compares the other sensing elements with the recently installed sensing element.
This test will verify the rate lag compensation for flow from the core to the RTDs.
The Frequency is justified by the assumption of an 18 month calibration interval in the determination of the magnitude of equipment drift in the setpoint analysis.

Agreement criteria are determined by the unit staff, based on a combination of the channel instrument uncertainties, including indication and readability. If a channel is outside the criteria, it may be an indication that the sensor or the signal processing equipment has drifted outside its limit.
The Frequency is based on operating experience that demonstrates channel failure is rare. The CHANNEL CHECK supplements less formal, but more frequent, checks of channels during normal operational use of the displays associated with the LCO required channels.
SR 3.3.7.2 A COT is performed once every 92 days on each required channel to ensure the entire channel will perform the intended function. This test verifies the capability of the instrumentation to provide the CREFS PAR 1 actuation. A successful test of the required contact(s) of a channel relay may be performed by the verification of the change of state of a single contact of the relay. This clarifies what is an acceptable COT of a relay.
This is acceptable because all of the other required contacts of the relay are verified by other Technical Specifications and non-Technical Specifications tests at least once per refueling interval with applicable extensions. The setpoints shall be left consistent with the unit specific 6 calibration procedure tolerance. The Frequency is based on the known reliability of the monitoring equipment and has been shown to be INSERT 5 acceptable through operating experience.
SR 3.3.7.3 SR 3.3.7.3 is the performance of an ACTUATION LOGIC TEST. The train being tested is placed in the bypass condition, thus preventing inadvertent actuation. Through the semiautomatic tester, all possible logic combinations, with and without applicable permissives, are tested 4 for each protection function. In addition, the master relay coil is pulse tested for continuity. This verifies that the logic modules are OPERABLE and there is an intact voltage signal path to the master relay coils. This test is performed every 31 days on a STAGGERED TEST BASIS. The Frequency is acceptable based on instrument reliability and industry operating experience.

Enclosure (7 of 8), Q&A to Attachment 1, Volume 8 (Section 3.3) Page 72 of 501 EE-0116 Page 4 of 205 Revision 6 2.0 OVERVIEW 2.1 Definitions Accuracy - A degree of conformity of an indicated value to a recognized, accepted standard value or ideal value.
Allowable Value (AV) - is the threshold value used to determine channel operability during the performance of channel functional tests and channel calibrations. The AV is the limiting as found setting for the channel trip setpoint that accounts for all of the NON-COT error components from the CSA Calculation in accordance with Methods 1 or 2 from ISA-RP67.04.02-2000 and ISA-RP67.04-Part II-1994.
Analytical Limit (AL) - The setpoint value assumed in the Safety Analysis. In the context of this document, the Analytical Limit is the same as the Safety Analysis Limit (SAL).
As Found Tolerance (AFT) - For Surry and North Anna, the As Found Tolerance is equal to the Allowable Value or Limiting Safety System Setting (LSSS)/Setting Limit listed in Technical Specifications. For Kewaunee, the As Found Tolerance is equal to the statistical combination of the rack error components and rack drift.
As Left Tolerance (ALT) - is not applicable for Surry and North Anna. For Kewaunee the As Left Tolerance is equal to the statistical combination of the rack error components minus the rack drift.
Calibrated Range - The calibration span of the sensor/transmitter as it applies to the indicated process range of the loop/system.
Channel Statistical Allowance (CSA) - The total instrument loop uncertainty (usually expressed in percent of instrument span) where non-interactive error components are combined statistically and interactive error components are summed arithmetically in accordance with Dominion Standard STD-EEN-0304 (Ref. 5.5).
The generic CSA equation and a summary of error terms are provided below in Table 2.1.
Channel Operational Test (COT) - A COT shall be the injection of a simulated or actual signal into the channel as close to the sensor as practicable to verify OPERABILITY of all devices in the channel required for channel OPERABILITY. The COT shall include adjustments, as necessary, of the required alarm, interlock, and trip setpoints required for channel OPERABILITY such that the setpoints are within the necessary range and accuracy. The COT may be performed by means of any series of sequential, overlapping, or total channel steps. In the context of this document, the Channel Operational Test is the same as a Channel Periodic Test or Channel Functional Test.
Instrument Loop - An arrangement or chain of modules or components as required to generate one or more protective/control signals and/or provide indication and recording functions. An Instrument Loop normally includes the following five elements; the process, a transmitter/sensor, process electronics, indications and/or automatic control elements.

Enclosure (7 of 8), Q&A to Attachment 1, Volume 8 (Section 3.3) Page 73 of 501 EE-0116 Page 5 of 205 Revision 6 Limiting Safety System Setting (LSSS) - The LSSS is a term used in the Surry Power Station CTS to define the threshold value used to determine channel operability during the performance of channel functional tests and channel calibrations. In the context of this document, the CTS LSSS or Setting Limit used for Surry Power Station is equivalent to the ITS Allowable Value used for North Anna Power Station and the As Found Tolerance for Kewaunee.
Limiting Trip Setpoint (LTSP) - Based on RIS 2006-17 and TSTF-493, Rev. 4, the LTSP is the limiting setting for the channel trip setpoint considering all credible instrument errors associated with the instrument channel (Refs. 5.99 and 5.100).
Margin - The resultant value when the Channel Statistical Allowance (CSA) value is subtracted from the Total Allowance Value (usually expressed in percent of span or the process/signal values corresponding to these).
Module - A generic term for a Westinghouse Nuclear Instrumentation Module, Westinghouse 7300 Series PC Card, Foxboro Module, NUS Module, or a Westinghouse/Hagan 7100 Electronic Module.
Nominal Trip Setpoint (NTSP) - The desired setpoint for the variable. Initial calibration and subsequent re-calibrations should be made at the Nominal Trip Setpoint value specified in approved plant documentation.
According to RIS 2006-17 and TSTF-493, Rev. 4 (Refs. 5.99 and 5.100), the NTSP is the Limiting Trip Setpoint with margin added. The NTSP is always equal to or more conservative than the LTSP.
Operating Margin - The difference between the nominal operating value for the process parameter and the most limiting trip/alarm setpoint/control limit (usually expressed in percent of span or the process/signal values corresponding to these).
Process Range - The upper and lower limits of the operating region for a device, e.g., for a Pressurizer Pressure Transmitter, 0 to 3000 PSIG, for Steam Generator Level, 0 to 100 % Level. This is not necessarily the calibrated range of the device, e.g., for the Pressurizer Pressure Transmitter, the typical calibrated range is 1700 to 2500 PSIG.
Rack Error Components - These are the error terms associated with the process modules that are used to develop a Channel Statistical Allowance (CSA) value for a particular trip/alarm function. These rack error components are the calibration tolerances associated with the process modules for a module calibration (M1, M2 ... Mn) or (RCA & RCSA) for string calibration and an uncertainty value to account for Rack Drift (RD). These rack error components are combined statistically to determine the maximum allowable error which, ideally, should be used to determine the Allowable Value/LSSS/Setting Limit.
Safety Analysis Limit (SAL) - The setpoint value assumed in the Safety Analysis. In the context of this document, the Safety Analysis Limit is equivalent to the Analytical Limit (AL).
Span - The difference between the upper and lower range values of a process parameter or the signal values corresponding to these.
Tolerance - The allowable deviation from an ideal calculated value.

Enclosure (7 of 8), Q&A to Attachment 1, Volume 8 (Section 3.3) Page 74 of 501 EE-0116 Page 6 of 205 Revision 6 Total Allowance - The difference between the Nominal Trip Setpoint and the Safety Analysis Limit (usually expressed in percent of span or the process/signal values corresponding to these).
Total Loop Uncertainty (TLU) - In the context of this document, the TLU is equivalent to the Channel Statistical Allowance (CSA). A summary of TLU/CSA error terms is provided in Table 2.1 below.

(M2+M2MTE)2 + + (Mn+MnMTE)2 + RD2 + RTE2 + RRA2]1/2 Systematic Error (SE) Systematic Error is treated as a bias (unidirectional) and is always placed outside (NON-COT) of the radical. Examples of Systematic Error are transmitter reference leg heatup, uncorrected Sensor Pressure Effects (SPE) and the SG Mid Deck Plate bias.
Environmental Allowance (EA) Environmental Allowance is normally associated with instrument loop sensors and (NON-COT) equipment that is subjected to a HARSH environment during DBE and/or PDBE conditions. EA is made up of Insulation Resistance (IR) Effects, Radiation Effects (RE), Steam Pressure Temperature Effects (SPTE) and Seismic Mounting Effects (SME).
Process Measurement Accuracy (PMA) Process Measurement Accuracy is an allowance for non-instrument related effects (NON-COT) that directly influence the accuracy of the instrument loop. Examples of PMA are fluid stratification effects on temperature measurement and the effects of fluid density changes on level measurement.
Primary Element Accuracy (PEA) Primary Element Accuracy is an allowance for the inaccuracies of the system (NON-COT) element that quantitatively converts the measured variable energy into a form suitable for measurement.
Sensor Calibration Accuracy (SCA) Sensor Calibration Accuracy is a number or quantity that defines a limit that errors (NON-COT) will not exceed when a sensor is used under specified operating conditions, i.e.,
the calibration accuracy of the sensor.
Sensor Measuring & Test Equipment (SMTE) Sensor Measuring & Test Equipment is associated with the accuracy of the (NON-COT) Measuring and Test Equipment (M&TE) used to calibrate the loop sensor(s).
Examples of SMTE are Test Gauges and Digital Multimeters (DMM).
Sensor Drift (SD) Sensor Drift is an allowance for the change in the input versus output relationship (NON-COT) of the sensor over a period of time under specified reference operating conditions.
Sensor Pressure Effects (SPE) Sensor Pressure Effects are allowances for the steady-state pressure applied to a (NON-COT) device. Normally, SPE applies only for differential pressure devices and is associated with the change in input-output relationship due to a change in static pressure. SPE is divided into two terms, Static Pressure Zero Effect (SPZE) and Static Pressure Span Effect (SPSE).
Sensor Temperature Effects (STE) Sensor Temperature Effect is an allowance for the effects of changes in the (NON-COT) ambient temperature surrounding the sensor.
Sensor Power Supply Effect (SPSE) Sensor Power Supply Effect is an allowance for the effects of changes in the (NON-COT) power supply voltage applied to the sensor.
Module Calibration Accuracy (M1 through Mn) Module M1 to Mn is an Allowance for the accuracy of an assembly of (COT) interconnected components that constitute an identifiable device, instrument, or piece of equipment. A module can be disconnected, removed as a unit and replaced with a spare. It has definable performance characteristics that permit it to be tested as a unit.
Module Measuring & Test Equipment (MnMTE) Module Measuring & Test Equipment is associated with the accuracy of the (NON-COT) Measuring and Test Equipment (M&TE) used to calibrate the loop module(s).
Examples of MnMTE are Decade Boxes, Digital Multimeters (DMM), Test Point Resistors (TPR), Oscilloscopes and Recorders.
Rack Drift (RD) Rack Drift is an allowance for the change in the input versus output relationship of (COT) the Rack Modules (M1 through Mn) over a period of time under specified reference operating conditions.
Rack Temperature Effect (RTE) Sensor Temperature Effect is an allowance for the effects of changes in the (NON-COT) ambient temperature surrounding the Process Racks.
Rack Readability Allowance (RRA) Rack Readability Allowance is an allowance for the inability to read analog (N/A) indicators because of parallax distortion.

The difference in percent of span between the Nominal Trip Setpoint and the Allowable Value was calculated, in most cases, based on a summation of the errors associated with the rack components and rack drift. For linear, non-complex trip functions, this value normally worked out to be between 1.0 % and 2.0 % of span. For complex trip functions or functions that had limited margin with respect to the Safety Analysis Limit, other calculational methods were used to determine the difference between the Nominal Trip Setpoint and the Allowable Value. For plants that do not use the Westinghouse STS version of Technical Specifications such as Surry, normally only one setpoint value (assumed to be the Limiting Safety System Setting LSSS or the Setting Limit at Surry) is provided in the text with no guidance as to how to set the actual "Nominal" Trip Setpoint in the plant.
Based on the early versions of the Westinghouse STS, the original definition of the LSSS (i.e., the Allowable Value) was stated as follows:
"A setting chosen to prevent exceeding a Safety Analysis Limit".
This Allowable Value was intended to be used during monthly or quarterly Functional Testing as a "flag" such that if a bistable (comparator) Trip Setpoint exceeded this value, the protection channel would be declared inoperable and plant staff would be required to initiate corrective action. The intended significance of this value is that it is the point where if the value is exceeded, the implication is that the actual rack electronics and/or associated rack error components have exceeded the values assumed in the Channel Statistical Allowance (CSA) Calculation and consequently, the margin with respect to the Safety Analysis Limit has been reduced.
The Allowable Value takes on added significance when there is little or no retained/available margin with respect to the Safety Analysis Limit and conversely takes on reduced significance in proportion to the amount of retained/available margin.
2.2.2 Addressing Recent NRC Concerns Associated with Allowable Values Dominion Corporate I&C Engineering attended a meeting with the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) and Nuclear Energy Institute (NEI) in Rockville, MD on October 8, 2003 to evaluate NRC concerns associated with the Allowable Values used in Technical Specifications. The Allowable Values of interest are those associated with Reactor Protection System (RPS) (e.g., also known as the Reactor Trip System RTS) and Engineered Safety Features Actuation System (ESFAS) Functions that are credited in the Plant Specific Safety Analysis. The NRC expressed a basic concern at the meeting where they have identified various plants that use a method to calculate Allowable Values for RTS and ESFAS functions that will reduce or eliminate margin to the Analytical Limit (AL), i.e., also known as the Safety Analysis Enclosure (7 of 8), Q&A to Attachment 1, Volume 8 (Section 3.3) Page 76 of 501
Enclosure (7 of 8), Q&A to Attachment 1, Volume 8 (Section 3.3) Page 77 of 501 EE-0116 Page 9 of 205 Revision 6 Limit (SAL). In the worst case scenario, the margin may be determined to be negative such that the protection function is operating outside of the analyzed region.
On August 13, 2003, NRC Staff met with members of the ISA 67.04 committee and other industry groups in Rockville, MD to discuss instrument setpoint methodology and lay out their position. The major area of discussion focused on the instrument setpoint methodology recommended in ISA Standard S67.04 used by many licensees for determining protection system instrumentation setpoints. Part II of the standard, not endorsed by the NRC Staff, includes three methods for calculating Allowable Values which represent the Limiting Safety System Settings (LSSS) as described in 10CFR50.36. As stated by the NRC, Methods 1 and 2 determine Allowable Values that are sufficiently conservative and are acceptable to the NRC Staff.
According to the NRC, Method 3 does not appear to provide an acceptable degree of conservatism and is of concern to the NRC Staff. In addition, there is also a disagreement between the NRC Staff and NEI/ISA/Some Industry Groups as to the meaning/intent of the LSSS. These items will be addressed in this document as they apply to Surry and North Anna.
As of August 2002 North Anna adopted Improved Technical Specifications (ITS). Within the North Anna ITS and ITS Bases, Allowable Values are explicitly defined and are uniquely associated with each RTS and ESFAS function, to include Backup Trips and Permissives. The Allowable Values specified in North Annas ITS as described in this Technical Report are based on Methods 1 or 2 from ISA-RP67.04.02-2000 and ISA-RP67.04-Part II-1994.
Surry Power Station has not adopted ITS and has decided to continue using their Custom Technical Specifications (CTS). For plants licensed before 1974, prior to the introduction of Standardized Technical Specifications (STS), the setpoints (i.e., Technical Specification Limits) included in CTS for RPS and ESFAS instrumentation were based on the plant specific setpoint study and/or based on settings provided in the Westinghouse Precautions, Limitations and Setpoints (PLS) document. The RPS and ESFAS trip setpoints specified in CTS did not include allowances for instrument uncertainties associated with channel functional testing (i.e., the COT). These allowances were left up to the licensee to deal with and justify. At the present time, this applies to Surry. In many cases, the original CTS setpoints for RPS and ESFAS instrumentation have been determined to be unacceptable based on todays standards and setpoint methodologies. To address this discrepancy, Technical Specification Change Request (TSCR) No. 318 was prepared to revise 16 Limiting Safety System Settings for the Reactor Protection System and 11 Setting Limits for the Engineered Safety Features Actuation System. The revised Limiting Safety System Settings and Setting Limits were calculated in accordance with Methods 1 or 2 from ISA-RP67.04.02-2000 and ISA-RP67.04-Part II-1994. TSCR No. 318 was approved by the USNRC via Surry Technical Specifications Amendments 261/261 dated September 23, 2008 (Serial # 080594). The revised Limiting Safety System Settings, Setting Limits, and four setpoint changes were implemented for Surry Units 1 and 2 in November of 2008.
At the present time, Kewaunee Power Station is also using Custom Technical Specifications (CTS).
Kewaunees CTS is very similar to the CTS used at Surry Power Station. Dominion has decided that Kewaunee will convert to Improved Technical Specifications (ITS) in the near future. As part of the ITS conversion, Kewaunee will remove their Reactor Protection System LSSSs, ESFAS Setting Limits (known as Allowable Values in ITS), Diesel Generator (LOOP), Containment Purge and Vent Isolation, and Control Room Post Accident Recirculation Actuation from Technical Specifications and maintain control of these and other critical limits in a Setpoint Control Program as allowed by Option B of TSTF-493, Enclosure (7 of 8), Q&A to Attachment 1, Volume 8 (Section 3.3) Page 77 of 501
Enclosure (7 of 8), Q&A to Attachment 1, Volume 8 (Section 3.3) Page 78 of 501 EE-0116 Page 10 of 205 Revision 6 Revision 4 (Ref. 5.99). The Setpoint Control Program will be administered as defined in ITS, Section 5.5.16 Setpoint Control Program. Like North Anna and Surry, the Allowable Values for RPS and ESFAS Instrumentation, as administered by the Setpoint Control Program will be calculated in accordance with Methods 1 or 2 from ISA-RP67.04.02-2000 and ISA-RP67.04-Part II-1994. The Kewaunee Diesel Generator (LOOP), Containment Purge and Vent Isolation, and Control Room Post Accident Recirculation Actuation instrumentation will be handled using Methods 1 and 2 as applicable.
The following subsections will focus on the meaning/intent of the Limiting Safety System Setting (LSSS) and the Allowable Value (AV) as understood by the NRC, ISA/NEI/Various Industry Groups and Dominion.
2.2.3 The NRC Staff Position Concerning the LSSS and AV The following LSSS information is based on information from the NRC presentation to the ISA 67.04 Committee on August 13, 2003.
10CFR50.36(C)(1)(ii)(A) defines the Limiting Safety System Setting (LSSS) as the setting that must be chosen so that the automatic protective action will correct the abnormal situation before a safety limit is exceeded.
New Improved TS Bases defines allowable value (AV) to be equivalent to LSSS and defines that a channel is operable if the trip setpoint is found not to exceed the AV during the Channel Operational Test (COT).
Prior to the issuance of NRC Regulatory Issue Summary (RIS) 2006-17, the NRC Staff believed that the Allowable Value (AV) is equivalent to the Limiting Safety System Setting (LSSS). Since the issuance of RIS 2006-17 (Ref. 5.100), the NRCs staff position is that the Limiting Trip Setpoint (LSP) protects the Safety Limit (SL) and relationship between the Allowable Value and the LSSS has been expanded upon as discussed in Section 2.2.6.(1) 2.2.4 The ISA/NEI/Various Industry Groups Position Concerning the LSSS and AV The following information is based on the ISA 67.04 Subcommittee handout from August 13, 2003.
Position Statements x The difference between the Allowable Value (AV) and the Analytical Limit (AL) is not a direct defense of the AL.
x The Trip Setpoint (TSP) protects the AL.
(1) There is a difference in the terminology and abbreviations used in TSTF-493, Rev. 4 versus RIS 2006-17 with respect to the Limiting Trip Setpoint and the Safety Limit.

Enclosure (7 of 8), Q&A to Attachment 1, Volume 8 (Section 3.3) Page 79 of 501 EE-0116 Page 11 of 205 Revision 6 Summary x Reg Guide 1.105 endorses the calculation of the TSP using statistical methods.
x The AV, based on a portion of the errors, does not invalidate the TSP.
x The AV validates an error contribution assumption via periodic surveillance testing.
x As long as the AV is not exceeded, the channel is OPERABLE.
x During Surveillance Testing, the AV serves as the LSSS.
x The errors between the AV and the AL are not part of the LSSS as defined by 10CFR50.36.
In summary, ISA/NEI/Various Industry Groups believe that the Allowable Value (AV) is equivalent to the Limiting Safety System Setting (LSSS). However, their position is that the TSP is used to protect the Analytical Limit (AL). All of the items listed above are true, with the exception of The TSP protects the AL. This is the statement that is under dispute.
Since August of 2003, the Industry has been developing Technical Specification Task Force Improved Standard Technical Specifications Change Traveler TSTF-493. This document addresses the agreement made between the USNRC and the industry concerning the issues listed above. Dominions implementation of the requirements set forth in TSTF-493, Revision 4 (Ref. 5.99) as they apply to Kewaunee Power Station will be addressed in Sections 2.2.6 and 3.5.
2.2.5 The Dominion Position Concerning the LSSS and AV for North Anna and Surry Information Intentionally Removed Specific to North Anna Power Station and Surry Power Station Only Enclosure (7 of 8), Q&A to Attachment 1, Volume 8 (Section 3.3) Page 79 of 501

As part of the ITS conversion, Dominion has chosen to implement Option B of TSTF-493, Revision 4 (Ref. 5.99). TSTF-493, Revision 4, Option B allows for the relocation of Reactor Protection System RPS (also known as the Reactor Trip System RTS) and Engineered Safety Features Actuation System - ESFAS (also known as Engineered Safety Features - ESF) Allowable Values (also known as the Limiting Safety System Settings - LSSSs or Setting Limits) from Section 3.3 of Technical Specifications to a Licensee controlled program as defined in ITS Section 5.5.16. In addition, the Diesel Generator (LOOP), Containment Purge and Vent Isolation, and Control Room Post Accident Recirculation Actuation instrumentation will also be relocated to the Licensee controlled program as defined in ITS Section 5.5.16. To implement TSTF-493, Option B, Dominion will incorporate the relevant positions taken by the industry as detailed in TSTF-493, Revision 4 and those taken by the USNRC as detailed in NRC Regulatory Issue Summary 2006-17, Dated September 19, 2006 (Refs. 5.99 and 5.100) into the Setpoint Control Program in accordance with ITS Section 5.5.16.
New and/or revised terminology and requirements have been incorporated into TSTF-493 and NRC Regulatory Issue Summary (RIS) 2006-17 that are to be used for the determination of RPS and ESFAS Setpoints. The new terminology and requirements detailed in TSTF-493, Revision 4 and RIS 2006-17 will be incorporated into Kewaunees Setpoint Control Program as described in ITS Section 5.5.16. In addition to the new terminology and requirements, the USNRC has taken the position that the Limiting Trip Setpoint (LTSP) protects the Safety Limit (SL) (Ref. 5.100). This revised position is a change from the historical definition of the Allowable Value as delineated in Standardized Technical Specifications Enclosure (7 of 8), Q&A to Attachment 1, Volume 8 (Section 3.3) Page 80 of 501
Enclosure (7 of 8), Q&A to Attachment 1, Volume 8 (Section 3.3) Page 81 of 501 EE-0116 Page 13 of 205 Revision 6 (STS), i.e., "A setting chosen to prevent exceeding a Safety Analysis Limit" (Ref. 5.3). Since the Limiting Trip Setpoint (LTSP) accounts for all credible instrument errors associated with the instrument channel, it is a more conservative setting than the associated Allowable Value as defined in Section 3.5. With respect to Kewaunees conversion to ITS, Dominion agrees with this revised position based on explanations and guidance provided in TSTF-493, Revision 4 and RIS 2006-17.
Like North Anna and Surry, Kewaunees Setpoint Methodology is based on Methods 1 or 2 from ISA-RP67.04.02-2000 and ISA-RP67.04-Part II-1994. Using Methods 1 or 2 will ensure that the Allowable Value (equivalent to the Minimum or Maximum Allowable Value for Surry and North Anna) will account for all credible instrument and process errors that are not tested or quantified during the performance of the Channel Operational Test (COT). This Setpoint Methodology addresses the basic NRC concern brought up back in 2003 that Method 3 (used by some Licensees to determine Allowable Values) as described in ISA-RP67.04.02-2000 and ISA-RP67.04-Part II-1994 may yield Allowable Values that will not protect the Safety Limit under all postulated conditions. In addition to using Methods 1 or 2, Kewaunees Setpoint Methodology will incorporate the revised terminology and additional requirements imposed by TSTF-493, Revision 4 and RIS 2006-17. A detailed discussion of Kewaunees Setpoint Methodology incorporating the revised terminology and requirements from TSTF-493 and RIS 2006-17 is provided in Section 3.5.

In addition, Westinghouse has also performed the RPS (RTS) and ESFAS Setpoint Study for many of their plants. Typically, the Setpoint Study for these plants included the development of Channel Statistical Allowance (CSA) Calculations for Primary and some of the Backup RTS and ESFAS Trip Functions. Derived from these Setpoint Studies and CSA Calculations are the Allowable Values that appear in various versions of Standardized Technical Specifications (STS). For the Westinghouse Plants that use Custom Technical Specifications (CTS), the setpoint values specified for RPS and ESFAS Trip Functions are not defined as Allowable Values and typically, they are the same setpoint values as those found in the original Precautions, Limitations and Setpoints (PLS) Document for that particular plant. This was the case for Surrys Custom Technical Specifications until the implementation of Technical Specifications Change Request No. 318 ultimately resulting in TS Amendments 261/261 for Units 1 and 2, respectively (Ref. 5.119).
Dominion is unique in the fact that a majority of the UFSAR Chapter 14 (Surry and Kewaunee) and Chapter 15 (North Anna) Safety Analysis is performed in house by the Corporate Nuclear Analysis & Fuels Department. In addition, Channel Statistical Allowance Calculations for Primary and Backup RPS (RTS) and ESFAS Trip Functions are performed in house by the Corporate Electrical/I&C/Computers Department. Because Dominion performs their own Safety Analysis and CSA Calculations, the methodology used to determine Improved Technical Specifications (NUREG-1431 ITS) Allowable Values for North Anna, As Found Tolerances for Kewaunee, and LSSS/Setting Limits for Surry Custom Technical Specifications will be similar and in some cases more conservative than that used by Westinghouse in the past to determine Allowable Values for later versions of Standardized Technical Specifications. In addition, the methods used in this Technical Report to calculate the limiting values for North Anna, Kewaunee, and Surry will be consistent with the requirements of Methods 1 or 2 as described in ISA-RP67.04.02-2000 (Ref 5.43).
3.2 Functional Groups for RPS (RTS) and ESFAS Instrumentation.
Based on Dominion Technical Report NE-0994 (Ref. 5.1), the Reactor Protection System (RPS)/Reactor Trip System (RTS) and the Engineered Safety Features Actuation System (ESFAS) Instrumentation at North Anna, Kewaunee, and Surry can be divided into two major categories, i.e., Primary Trip Functions and Backup Trip Functions. Primary Trip Functions are credited in the Plant Safety Analysis and have an associated Analytical Limit (i.e., Safety Analysis Limit or Safety Limit). Backup Trip Functions are not credited in the Plant Safety Analysis but are included in the Reactor Protection System and the Engineered Safety Features Actuation System to enhance the overall effectiveness of the system.
Primary Trip Functions include the following:
x Primary Reactor Trip Functions x Primary Reactor Trip Permissives x Primary ESFAS Actuation Functions x Primary ESFAS Permissives Enclosure (7 of 8), Q&A to Attachment 1, Volume 8 (Section 3.3) Page 82 of 501
Enclosure (7 of 8), Q&A to Attachment 1, Volume 8 (Section 3.3) Page 83 of 501 EE-0116 Page 15 of 205 Revision 6 Backup Trip Functions include the following:
x Backup Reactor Trip Functions x Backup Reactor Trip Permissives x Backup ESFAS Permissives In addition to the above, there are three basic functional groups of Westinghouse Nuclear Instrumentation System (NIS), Foxboro H-Line, NUS Replacement Modules, Westinghouse/Hagan 7100, and Westinghouse 7300 Instrumentation that develop the majority of the RPS/RTS and ESFAS trips. These basic functional groups are divided into the three categories listed below:
- 1. Single parameter protection function
- 2. Dual parameter protection function
- 3. Multiple parameter protection function (i.e., more than two process parameters)
Different methods are used to calculate or validate the Allowable Values for North Anna, As Found Tolerances for Kewaunee, and LSSS/Setting Limits for Surry depending on whether the function is considered to be Primary or Backup. In addition, the functional group category will also effect how the Allowable Value, As Found Tolerance or LSSS/Setting Limit is calculated. Some examples of functional groups are given below.
Single Parameter Protection Functions x Power Range Neutron Flux High and Low Reactor Trips x Pressurizer High and Low Pressure Reactor Trips x Low Reactor Coolant Flow Reactor Trip x Containment Hi-1, Hi-2 and Hi-3 (North Anna only) Pressure ESFAS initiation x Compensated Low Steam Line Pressure ESFAS initiation x Steam Generator Lo-2 Level ESFAS initiation Dual Parameter Protection Functions x Surry High Steam Flow in 2/3 Lines ESFAS initiation x Surry High 'P Steam Line vs. Steam Header ESFAS initiation x North Anna High 'P Steam Line vs. Steam Line ESFAS initiation Multiple Parameter Protection Functions x Steam Flow Feed Flow Mismatch Reactor Trip x Overpower 'T Reactor Trip x Overtemperature 'T Reactor Trip Enclosure (7 of 8), Q&A to Attachment 1, Volume 8 (Section 3.3) Page 83 of 501

Most of the RTS and ESFAS trips generated from these systems are single parameter protection functions. Figures 3.2-1 and 3.2-2 illustrate the configuration of the Westinghouse NIS and the 7300 Process Control System.

CSA Calculations performed for Reactor Trips generated by NIS typically include rack error terms associated with the meter indications (i.e., Amps, % Full Power, Counts per Second, etc.) and the bistables that generate the trip.

These rack error terms along with other error terms from the CSA Calculation will be used to validate the existing Allowable Values at North Anna or to calculate revised Allowable Values, if necessary.
Surry The NSSS Protection and Control System at Surry uses the same Westinghouse Nuclear Instrumentation System (NIS) as North Anna. However, a majority of NSSS Protection and Control is developed from the Westinghouse/Hagan 7100 Series Process Control System (using NUS Replacement Modules for some functions). Like North Anna, most of the RPS and ESFAS trips generated from these systems are single parameter protection functions. For the Westinghouse NIS, Figure 3.2-1 is also applicable for Surry. Figure 3.2-3 illustrates the configuration of the Westinghouse/Hagan 7100 Process Control System for a single input protection function.

In the case of Surrys Low Reactor Coolant Flow Reactor Trip as shown in Figure 3.2-3, the rack error terms from CSA Calculation EE-0183 (Ref. 5.34) are :
(M5 + M5MTE) + RD + RTE Where: M5 = Rack Comparator Setting Accuracy = + 0.50 %
M5MTE = Rack Measuring and Test Equipment = + 0.15 %
RD = Rack Drift = + 1.00 %
RTE = Rack Temperature Effects = + 0.50 %
Note the difference between North Annas rack error terms compared with the rack error terms listed above for Surry. The error terms for the Loop Power Supply are not included in Surrys CSA Calculation because it is not used as a signal converter.
Kewaunee The NSSS Protection and Control System at Kewaunee uses the same Westinghouse Nuclear Instrumentation System (NIS) as does North Anna and Surry for Power Range. Most of the NSSS Protection and Control is developed from the Foxboro H-Line Process Control System (using NUS Replacement Modules for some functions). Like North Anna and Surry, most of the RPS and ESFAS trips generated from these systems are single parameter protection functions. For the Westinghouse Power Range NIS, Figure 3.2-1 is also applicable for Kewaunee. Figure 3.2-4 illustrates the configuration of the Foxboro H-Line Process Control System for a single input protection function.

The Foxboro H-Line Process Control System mainly operates using current loops where the power supplies are not used as signal converters. In many cases, for a single parameter protection function, the only rack module that will have a tolerance associated with it will be the Bistable Module.
In the case of Kewaunees Low Reactor Coolant Flow Reactor Trip as shown in Figure 3.2-4, the rack error terms from CSA Calculation C10819 (Ref. 5.96) are :
(M2BISTABLE + M2MTE) + RD + RTE Where: M2BISTABLE = Rack Bistable Setting Accuracy = + 0.50 %

Channel Statistical Allowance Calculations for dual parameter protection functions are different than single parameter functions.

The rack error terms described in the example above along with other error terms from the CSA Calculation will be used to validate the existing Allowable Values at North Anna or to calculate revised Allowable Values, if necessary. The configuration of dual parameter protection functions at Surry is similar to North Annas. The major differences between the rack error components for both plants are based on the process control equipment as illustrated above for single input protection functions.
Multiple Parameter Protection Functions Kewaunee There are three multiple parameter protection functions at North Anna and Kewaunee, and four multiple parameter functions at Surry. Figure 3.2-6 is a block diagram that illustrates Kewaunees Overtemperature 'T Reactor Trip configuration (note that Overpower 'T and Low TAVG are also shown on the drawing). The configuration of North Annas and Surrys Overtemperature 'T Reactor Trip is similar, noting that the process control equipment is different.
As can be seen from Figure 3.2-6, Kewaunees Overtemperature 'T Reactor Trip function is derived from five process parameters, they are :

x 'T Channel, made up of THOT and TCOLD x TAVG Channel, made up of THOT and TCOLD x Pressurizer Pressure Channel x Function of Delta Flux (F'I), made up of QU and QL Because there are five inputs to Kewaunees Overtemperature 'T function, the rack error components will be grouped as channel inputs versus a string of modules as shown above for the Dual Parameter Function example. This type of assessment will yield a conservative and valid Allowable Value (for Kewaunee, the Allowable Value will be the As Found Tolerance) using the four step method described in Sections 3.4 and 3.5 (Section 3.5 is Kewaunee specific). CSA Calculation C11865 (Ref. 5.94) was performed using a module calibration method, which for a multiple-parameter function will result in a very conservative CSA value. However, using a module calibration method for a complex, multiple-parameter function will result in an Allowable Value, LSSS/Setting Limit, or As Found Tolerance that Enclosure (7 of 8), Q&A to Attachment 1, Volume 8 (Section 3.3) Page 90 of 501

Enclosure (7 of 8), Q&A to Attachment 1, Volume 8 (Section 3.3) Page 93 of 501 EE-0116 Page 25 of 205 Revision 6 3.3.1 Method 1 Method 1 has been evaluated by the NRC Staff and was found to be an acceptable method to be used to calculate Allowable Values. Method 1 uses a TLU equal to 1.39 PSIG. The TLU was arrived at statistically using the Square Root Sum of the Squares (SRSS) method of combining channel error components. This is an accepted industry standard and is used here at Dominion Virginia Power. The channel error components used for the COT are equal to 1.10 PSIG and the error components used for the NON-COT are equal to 0.85. With a TLU equal to 1.39 PSIG and NON-COT errors equal 0.85 PSIG, then statistically, the COT error would be equal to 1.10 PSIG as shown below.
[(0.85)2 + (1.10)2] 1/2 = 1.39 or [(1.39)2 - (0.85)2] 1/2 = 1.10 If the COT error allowance were to be removed from the TLU, the statistical combination of the NON-COT error allowances would be equal to 0.85 PSIG. This means that the LSSS would have to be set such that the margin of 0.85 PSIG is maintained between the AV and the AL. To accomplish this using a COT error allowance of 1.10 PSIG, a determinant assessment must be used such that the COT allowance can only be equal to the TLU minus the NON-COT allowance, i.e., COT = 1.39 PSIG - 0.85 PSIG = 0.54 PSIG. In Method 1, the user decides that for the Channel Operational Test, the full COT allowance of 1.10 PSIG is to be retained. To maintain the full COT error allowance, the actual trip setpoint (ACT SP) is set below the calculated trip setpoint (CAL SP). Note that the difference between the CAL SP and the Allowable Value (AV) is 0.54 PSIG. The remainder of the desired COT allowance of 1.10 PSIG is obtained by lowering the ACT SP below the CAL SP by 0.56 PSIG to yield the ACT SP value of 4.05 PSIG. Method 1 ensures that the full NON-COT allowance of 0.85 PSIG is available under all conditions for the non-tested channel error components.
METHOD 1:
AL = 6.00 PSIG NON COT = 0.85 TLU = 1.39 AV = 5.15 PSIG COT = 1.10 CAL SP = 4.61 PSIG ACT SP = 4.05 PSIG LEGEND: TLU = TOTAL LOOP UNCERTAINTY AL = ANALYTICAL LIMIT (SAL) AV = ALLOWABLE VALUE NON COT = NON TESTED LOOP UNCERTAINTY COT = TESTED LOOP UNCERTAINTY CAL SP = CALCULATED SETPOINT ACT SP = ACTUAL SETPOINT Figure 3.3-1 Enclosure (7 of 8), Q&A to Attachment 1, Volume 8 (Section 3.3) Page 93 of 501
Enclosure (7 of 8), Q&A to Attachment 1, Volume 8 (Section 3.3) Page 94 of 501 EE-0116 Page 26 of 205 Revision 6 3.3.2 Method 2 Method 2 has been evaluated by the NRC Staff and was found to be an acceptable method to be used to calculate Allowable Values. Method 2 is essentially the same as Method 1 with the exception that the ACT SP is set equal to the CAL SP (i.e., 4.61 PSIG). This method does not allow for the full value of the COT error components as determined in the TLU (i.e., CSA Calculation). In some cases, this could cause the plant to find the AS FOUND Trip Setpoint outside of the AV more often than would be the case using Method 1. Like Method 1, Method 2 ensures that the statistical combination of the NON-COT error allowances (equal to 0.85 PSIG) is maintained between the AV and the AL under all conditions.
METHOD 2:
AL = 6.00 PSIG NON COT = 0.85 TLU = 1.39 AV = 5.15 PSIG COT = 0.54 CAL & ACT SP = 4.61 PSIG LEGEND: TLU = TOTAL LOOP UNCERTAINTY AL = ANALYTICAL LIMIT (SAL) AV = ALLOWABLE VALUE NON COT = NON TESTED LOOP UNCERTAINTY COT = TESTED LOOP UNCERTAINTY CAL SP = CALCULATED SETPOINT ACT SP = ACTUAL SETPOINT Figure 3.3-2 3.3.3 Method 3 Method 3 has been evaluated by the NRC Staff and was found to be an unacceptable method to be used to calculate Allowable Values. Method 3 has been used to calculate the Allowable Value in many Westinghouse Plants that used early versions of Standardized Technical Specifications (STS) as discussed above in Section 3.1. Using a determinant assessment, Method 3 does not ensure that the full NON-COT uncertainty allowance is maintained between the AV and the AL. To ensure that the NON-COT uncertainty allowance is maintained under all conditions, the AV must be set for < 5.15 PSIG. As can be seen from the illustration below, the AV using Method 3 is set for 5.71 PSIG, i.e., CAL SP/ACT SP + COT
= 5.71 PSIG. If the rack error components are allowed an offset of 1.10 PSIG before the channel is declared INOPERABLE, then the allowance for the NON-COT uncertainty is decreased to 0.29 PSIG. If the AS FOUND COT error was found to be (+) 1.05 PSIG and the AS FOUND NON-COT error was determined to be (+) 0.85 PSIG, then the channel trip function would have exceeded the Analytical Limit (i.e., SAL) and should be declared INOPERABLE. However, in accordance with Technical Specifications, the channel does not have to be declared INOPERABLE until the AS FOUND Trip Setpoint exceeds the Allowable Value. This is the concern that the NRC Staff has with Method 3. In the case of Method 3 using Enclosure (7 of 8), Q&A to Attachment 1, Volume 8 (Section 3.3) Page 94 of 501
Enclosure (7 of 8), Q&A to Attachment 1, Volume 8 (Section 3.3) Page 95 of 501 EE-0116 Page 27 of 205 Revision 6 a determinant assessment, the AV does not protect the AL and does not identify an inoperable channel under all operating conditions.
METHOD 3:
AL = 6.00 PSIG NON COT = 0.29 TLU = 1.39 AV = 5.71 PSIG COT = 1.10 CAL & ACT SP = 4.61 PSIG LEGEND: TLU = TOTAL LOOP UNCERTAINTY AL = ANALYTICAL LIMIT (SAL) AV = ALLOWABLE VALUE NON COT = NON TESTED LOOP UNCERTAINTY COT = TESTED LOOP UNCERTAINTY CAL SP = CALCULATED SETPOINT ACT SP = ACTUAL SETPOINT Figure 3.3-3 3.3.4 Method 3 with Additional Margin Method 3 using additional margin for the ACT SP has been evaluated by the NRC Staff and was found to be an unacceptable method to be used to calculate Allowable Values. Method 3 with additional margin is identical to Method 3 with the exception that the ACT SP is set below the CAL SP. In the case used for this illustration, the ACT SP is set for 4.00 PSIG which provides a margin of 0.61 PSIG to the CAL SP and 1.71 PSIG to the AV. This method actually yields less conservative results than Method 3 for two reasons. First, the AV is still set for 5.71 PSIG yielding a NON-COT allowance of 0.29 PSIG. As discussed above, using a determinant assessment, the NON-COT allowance of 0.29 PSIG does not fully account for the statistical combination of the non-tested loop error components.
Second, the calculated COT allowance was determined to be 1.10 PSIG. Allowing an error of 1.71 PSIG between the ACT SP and the AV is beyond the assumptions used to develop the TLU (i.e., CSA Calculation). Allowing an error of 1.71 PSIG for the Trip Setpoint before the channel is declared INOPERABLE is inconsistent with the applicable TLU assumptions and will not ensure that the rack components are operating within the assumptions of the CSA Calculation and/or the manufacturer specifications. Also note that the difference between the ACT SP and the AV is larger than the calculated TLU for the entire channel.

Kewaunee Power Station has chosen to implement TSTF-493, Revision 4, Option B as part of the conversion to Improved Technical Specifications. As stated above in Section 2.2.6, TSTF-493, Revision 4, Option B allows for the relocation of the Allowable Values associated with LCOs 3.3.1, 3.3.2, 3.3.5, 3.3.6, and 3.3.7 from Section 3.3 of Technical Specifications to a Licensee controlled program as defined in ITS Section 5.5.16. The Licensee controlled program is defined in ITS Section 5.5.16 as the Setpoint Control Program.
The Setpoint Control Program establishes the requirements for ensuring that setpoints for automatic protective devices are initially within and remain within the Technical Specification requirements. The Setpoint Control Program will govern the process for implementing changes to instrumentation setpoints and will describe the setpoint methodology used to ensure that setpoints are established in accordance with the requirements of Methods 1 or 2 from ISA-RP67.04.02-2000 and ISA-RP67.04-Part II-1994, TSTF-493, Revision 4, Option B, and RIS 2006-17. The automatic protective devices related to variables that perform a significant safety function at Kewaunee Power Station as delineated by 10 CFR 50.36(c)(1)(ii)(A) are described in detail in Sections 4.5, 4.6, and 4.7.
3.5.1 Primary RPS and ESFAS Trips, Permissives, and Other LCOs Credited in the Kewaunee Safety Analysis A four step process is used to determine the Allowable Value (AV), Limiting Trip Setpoint (LTSP),
Nominal Trip Setpoint (NTSP), and the As Found Tolerance (AFT) for Trip Functions, Permissives, and other LCOs at Kewaunee Power Station that are credited in the Safety Analysis. This four step process is based on the requirements of Methods 1 or 2 as described in ISA-RP67.04.02-2000 (Ref 5.43) and the revised terminology described in TSTF-493, Revision 4, and RIS 2006-17. In the order of operation, the four steps are described below and they are illustrated in Figure 3.5-1
- 1. Determine the Minimum (decreasing trip) or Maximum (increasing trip) Limiting Trip Setpoint (LTSP). The Maximum Limiting Trip Setpoint is arrived at by subtracting the Total Loop Uncertainty (TLU) from the Analytical Limit (AL) (also known as the Safety Analysis Limit). The Minimum Limiting Trip Setpoint is arrived at by adding the Total Loop Uncertainty (TLU) to the Analytical Limit (AL).
- 2. Determine the Minimum (decreasing trip) or Maximum (increasing trip) Allowable Value (AV).
This Maximum Allowable Value is arrived at by subtracting the statistical combination (i.e., Square Root of the Sum of the Squares SRRS) of the NON COT Loop Error Components (i.e., the loop error terms that are not tested or quantified during the Channel Operational Test COT) from the Analytical Limit (AL). The Minimum Allowable Value is arrived at by adding the statistical combination of the NON COT Loop Error Components to the Analytical Limit (AL).

Enclosure (7 of 8), Q&A to Attachment 1, Volume 8 (Section 3.3) Page 108 of 501 EE-0116 Page 40 of 205 Revision 6
- 3. Determine the Nominal Trip Setpoint (NTSP). After the LTSP is determined in step 1, the current Nominal Trip Setpoint for the function can be evaluated for acceptability. It may be desirable to move the current Nominal Trip Setpoint in a more conservative direction to obtain additional margin to the Analytical Limit and/or to allow for the full COT error allowance between the Nominal Trip Setpoint and the As Found Tolerance (AFT). Conversely, the current Nominal Trip Setpoint may be overly conservative resulting in reduced operating margin. If there is sufficient margin to the Analytical Limit, then it may be desirable to move the existing Nominal Trip Setpoint in the non-conservative direction to obtain additional operating margin. In all cases, the NTSP must be set equal to or, preferably, conservative with respect to the LTSP.
- 4. Determine the As Found Tolerance (AFT). Note that the As Found Tolerance for Kewaunee is equivalent to the Allowable Values/Limiting Safety System Settings/Setting Limits used for North Anna and Surry. After the AV is determined in step 2, the As Found Tolerance can be determined based on the NTSP. The AFT for an increasing trip function is arrived at by adding the statistical combination (i.e., Square Root of the Sum of the Squares SRRS) of the COT Loop Error Components (i.e., the loop error terms that are tested or quantified during the Channel Operational Test COT) to the Nominal Trip Setpoint (NTSP). The AFT for a decreasing trip function is arrived at by subtracting the statistical combination of the COT Loop Error Components from the Nominal Trip Setpoint. In all cases, the As Found Tolerance must be set equal to or, preferably, conservative with respect to the Allowable Value.

Backup RPS/ ESFAS and other LCOs Trip Functions do not have a documented Safety Limit; therefore, Limiting Trip Setpoints and Allowable Values do not need to be calculated. In some cases for Backup Trips, a TLU (i.e., CSA Calculation) may not be available to perform the process described below. In such a case, the process is subjective and should be based on the best available information. The two step process is described below.
- 1. Determine the Nominal Trip Setpoint (NTSP). The current Nominal Trip Setpoint for the function should be evaluated for acceptability. It may be desirable to move the current Nominal Trip Setpoint in a more conservative direction to obtain additional margin to ensure the function will support the associated Primary Trip, if applicable. Conversely, the current Nominal Trip Setpoint may be overly conservative resulting in reduced operating margin. If there is sufficient margin with respect to the associated Primary Trip Analytical Limit (if applicable), then it may be desirable to move the existing Nominal Trip Setpoint in the non-conservative direction to obtain additional operating margin.
- 2. Determine the As Found Tolerance (AFT). The AFT for an increasing trip function is arrived at by adding the statistical combination (i.e., Square Root of the Sum of the Squares SRRS) of the COT Loop Error Components (i.e., the loop error terms that are tested or quantified during the Channel Operational Test COT) to the Nominal Trip Setpoint (NTSP). The AFT for a decreasing trip function is arrived at by subtracting the statistical combination of the COT Loop Error Components from the Nominal Trip Setpoint (NTSP).

This function will be included in the Setpoint Control Program in accordance with ITS Table 3.3.2.1, item 5.b. Based on the requirements of ITS Section 5.5.16, this function will be evaluated based on the four step method described in Section 3.5.1 to ensure that it is bounded by the CSA Calculation of record and by the Safety Analysis assumptions documented in Technical Report NE-0994 (Ref. 5.1). The example given below will be adjusted to include the revised terminology and requirements specified in TSTF-493, Revision 4 and RIS 2006-17 to support the conversion to ITS and the implementation of the Kewaunee Setpoint Control Program.
Given Information:
Analytical Limit = 100.0 % Narrow Range Level (Ref. 5.1)
Current CTS Setting Limit = not specified Current Nominal Trip Setpoint = 66.5 % Narrow Range Level (Ref. 5.112)
Total Loop Uncertainty/Channel Statistical Allowance = (+) 3.967 to (+) 7.923 % Narrow Range Level (only the most positive value is used for the analysis) (Ref. 5.97)
Type of Trip = Increasing Trip, Normally Energized (Ref. 5.112)
Functional Group = Primary Trip, Single Parameter Protection Function (Refs. 5.1 and 5.112)
Step 1 - Determine the Limiting Trip Setpoint (LTSP)
The Limiting Trip Setpoint (LTSP) is equal to the Analytical Limit (AL) minus the Total Loop Uncertainty (TLU). Thus, the LTSP is equal to:
LTSP = 100.0 % - 7.923 %
LTSP = 92.077 % Narrow Range Level Step 2 - Determine the Allowable Value (AV)
The Allowable Value (AV) is equal to the Analytical Limit (AL) minus the NON-COT loop error components taken from the Total Loop Uncertainty (TLU) calculation. The NON-COT loop error components from Kewaunee CSA Calculation C11116 (Ref. 5.97) are detailed below:

NON COTerror = SE + PMA3 + [PEA2 + (SCA+SMTE)2 + SD2 + SPE2 + STE2 + SPSE2 + M1MTE2 +
M3MTE2 + RTE2] 1/2 NON COTerror = 0.0 + 5.945 + [0.02 + (0.25+0.217)2 + 0.2802 + 0.5772 + 1.2412 + 0.0602 + 0.02 + 0.202
+ 0.52] 1/2 NON COTerror = 7.514 % Narrow Range Level The Allowable Value (AV) for an increasing trip based on the requirements of Methods 1 or 2 as described in ISA-RP67.04.02-2000 (Ref. 5.43) is determined by subtracting the total NON-COT error from the Analytical Limit as shown below.
AV = 100.0 % - 7.514 %
AV = 92.486 % Narrow Range Level Step 3 - Determine the Nominal Trip Setpoint (NTSP)
As determined in Step 1, the Limiting Trip Setpoint is equal to 92.077 % Narrow Range Level. The current Nominal Trip Setpoint for this function at Kewaunee is 66.5 % Narrow Range Level. The Nominal Trip Setpoint is conservative with respect to the Limiting Trip Setpoint. The nominal operating band for Steam Generator Level at 100 % power is 44.0 % Level + 5.0 % Level (Refs. 5.134 and 5.135). Subtracting the worst case normal operating level of 49.0 % from the Nominal Trip Setpoint of 66.5 % yields an operating margin of 17.5 % level. This operating margin encompasses the entire Total Loop Uncertainty and should allow for stable operation. Therefore, the current Nominal Trip Setpoint of 66.5 % Narrow Range Level will be retained.

Enclosure (7 of 8), Q&A to Attachment 1, Volume 8 (Section 3.3) Page 112 of 501 EE-0116 Page 44 of 205 Revision 6 Step 4 - Determine the As Found Tolerance (AFT)
As determined in Step 2, the Allowable Value (AV) is equal to 92.486 % Narrow Range Level. The As Found Tolerance will be based on the COT error components taken from Calculation C11116 (Ref. 5.97) as shown below.
The As Found Tolerance is equal to the Nominal Trip Setpoint plus the COT loop error components taken from the Total Loop Uncertainty (TLU) calculation. The COT loop error components from CSA Calculation C11116 are detailed below:
Module 1 - Foxboro or NUS Loop Power Supply (M1) = + 0.00 % of span Module 3 - Foxboro or NUS Bistable Module (M3) = + 0.50 % of span Rack Drift (RD) = + 1.0 % of span Combining the COT loop error components using the Square Root of the Sum of the Squares (SRSS) method as described in Dominion Standard STD-EEN-0304 (Ref. 5.5), we have the following COT total error:
COTerror = + (M12 + M32 + RD2) 1/2 COTerror = + (0.02 + 0.52 + 1.02) 1/2 COTerror = + 1.12 % Narrow Range Level As described in Step 4 above, the As Found Tolerance (AFT) for an increasing trip is determined by adding the total COT error to the Nominal Trip Setpoint as shown below.
AFT = 66.5 % + 1.12 % = 67.62 % Narrow Range Level This As Found Tolerance of 67.62 % Narrow Range Level will be included in the Setpoint Control Program to support Kewaunees conversion to ITS, noting the Nominal Trip Setpoint is equal to 66.5 %
Narrow Range Level. The Nominal Trip Setpoint and the As Found Tolerance are both set below the Allowable Value of 92.486 % Narrow Range Level and the Limiting Trip Setpoint of 92.077 % Narrow Range Level.
As Found Tolerance (AFT) = 66.5 % Narrow Range Level + 1.12 % Narrow Range Level As Left Tolerance (ALT) = 66.5 % Narrow Range Level + 0.50 % Narrow Range Level(1)
Steps 1 through 4 as they apply for Kewaunees Steam Generator High-High Water Level Reactor Trip are illustrated below in Figure 3.5-2.

The As Left Tolerances will be specified for Kewaunees RPS instrumentation, ESFAS instrumentation, and other instrumentation associated with LCOs 3.3.5, 3.3.6, and 3.3.7 in Sections 4.5, 4.6, and 4.7, respectively. In general, for single input parameters, the As Left Tolerance will be equal to the calibration accuracy of the module or the SRSS of calibration accuracies of the modules used to develop the trip function. For multiple input parameters, the As Left Tolerance will be developed as described in Sections 4.5, 4.6, and 4.7.

Reactor Trips 4.5.1 Power Range Neutron Flux High Setpoint Reactor Trip As Found Tolerance Value : 105 % RTP + 1.5 % RTP (Refs. 5.1, 5.90, 5.91, 5.103, and 5.104)
Subtracting the Total Loop Uncertainty (TLU) from the Analytical Limit (AL) yields a Limiting Trip Setpoint (LTSP) of 110.96 % Rated Thermal Power (RTP). Subtracting the NON COT error components from the Analytical Limit yields an Allowable Value (AV) of 111.19 % RTP. The Nominal Trip Setpoint (NTSP) of 105.0 % RTP is conservative with respect to the Limiting Trip Setpoint and the As Found Tolerance Value of < 106.5 % RTP is conservative with respect to the Allowable Value. The current Custom Technical Specification (CTS) LSSS value of < 109 % RTP will be changed to an As Found Tolerance value < 106.5 % RTP to conform to the requirements of TSTF-493, Rev. 4 and RIS 2006-17. The As Found Tolerance is based on a Nominal Trip Setpoint value of 105 % RTP. The Nominal Trip Setpoint value of 105 % RTP will allow a 1.5 % RTP margin to be used for the COT error components. The revised As Found Tolerance value of < 106.5 % RTP is conservative with respect to the calculated value of < 106.56 % RTP using the CSA rack error terms from Calculation C11705 (Ref 5.91).
The calculated As Found Tolerance value for this function is < 106.562 % RTP. The 0.062 % RTP offset will be subtracted from the calculated value to arrive at a value that can be determined on the indicator. The statistical combination of the COT and NON COT error components from CSA Calculation C11705 (Ref. 5.91) are given below. The COT and NON COT error components are used in Figure 4.5.1 to determine the Limiting Trip Setpoint (LTSP) and the Allowable Value (AV).

Subtracting the Total Loop Uncertainty (TLU) from the Analytical Limit (AL) yields a Limiting Trip Setpoint (LTSP) of 27.96 % Rated Thermal Power (RTP). Subtracting the NON COT error components from the Analytical Limit yields an Allowable Value (AV) of 28.19 % RTP. The Nominal Trip Setpoint (NTSP) of 24.5 % RTP is conservative with respect to the Limiting Trip Setpoint and the As Found Tolerance Value of < 26.062 % RTP (conservatively round to < 26.0) is conservative with respect to the Allowable Value. The current Custom Technical Specification (CTS) LSSS value of < 25 % RTP will be changed to an As Found Tolerance value of < 26 % RTP to conform to the requirements of TSTF-493, Rev. 4 and RIS 2006-17. The As Found Tolerance is based on a Nominal Trip Setpoint value of 24.5 % RTP. The Nominal Trip Setpoint value of 24.5 % RTP will allow a 1.5 % RTP margin to be used for the COT error components.
The statistical combination of the COT and NON COT error components from CSA Calculation C11705 (Ref. 5.91) are given below. The COT and NON COT error components are used in Figure 4.5.2 to determine the Limiting Trip Setpoint (LTSP) and the Allowable Value (AV).

The current Kewaunee Custom Technical Specifications p (CTS)
( ) LSSS value for this function is 15.0 % /
qq / 5.0 seconds. The manner in which this specification p is presented p in Kewaunees CTS is different than the typical yp presentation p in Standardized Technical Specifications p (STS)
( ) or in Improved p Technical Specifications p (ITS).
( ) The typical yp expression p for this function in STS or ITS would be < 15.0 % RTP with a time constant > 5.0 Seconds. For consistencyy and clarity, ty, the expression p for th this is function will be written in the ITS format. The current static Nominal Tripp Setpoint p (NTSP)
( ) for this function is ((+)) 5.0
% RTP and the Rate Lagg Derivative Time Constant associated with this function is currently set at a nominal value of 2 seconds versus the required CTS LSSS value of 5.0 seconds.
For Rate Lag g Derivative functions,, conservative settingsg are > the desired/required q time constant. The Power Range g Neutron Flux Positive Rate Reactor Tripp is developed p based on a combination of the dynamic y compensation p from the Rate Lagg Derivative Module (NM311) ( ) and the static trip p setpoint p
installed in the Bistable Relayy Driver ((NC303). ) When Kewaunees current settings g for Rate Lagg Derivative Module ((i.e.,, nominal 2 second time constant)) and the Bistable Relayy Driver ((i.e.,, nominal p setpoint trip p is + 5.0 % RTP)) are combined,, the Power Range g Neutron Flux Positive Rate Reactor Tripp function is set conservative when compared p to the current CTS LSSS settings g (i.e.,
( , + 15.0 % RTP with a time constant of 5 seconds)) for all postulated p conditions which include both a rampp and a step. p The j contributingg factor that results in this determination is based on the fact that the nominal tripp major setpoint p is set at 5.0 % RTP versus 15.0 % RTP. The currently installed settings versus the current LSSS settings will be compared below for both a step and a ramp.
Based on References 5.12,, 5.13,, 5.136, and 5.137, the equation to determine the output of a Rate Lag Derivative Module for a step input is:
VOUT = G * (e -t/t1 * (VF - VI) + B)
Where:
G = Module Gain = 1.0000 V/V e (ex)
= antilogg of the natural logg (e t = time of interest ((for this example p use 0.1 second))
t1 = Rate Lagg Derivative Time Constant = 2 or 5 Seconds VF = Voltageg input p to the Rate Lagg Derivative Module after the stepp change g = 8.771 VDC VI = Voltageg input p to the Rate Lagg Derivative Module before the step change = 8.333 VDC B = Rate Lag Derivative Module Bias = 0.000 VDC There is no pedestal p voltage g for the NIS Rate Lag g Derivative Modules.

" The channel's maximum Trip Setpoint shall not exceed its computed Trip Setpoint by more than 1.546 % of the T span " (Note that 1.525 % of the T span is equal to 2.288 % T Power)
The Overpower 'T Reactor Trip Setpoint is variable and is constantly calculated based on actual plant conditions. For this reason, the Allowable Value cannot be expressed as a constant. The Overpower 'T Reactor Trip is a backup reactor trip function and is not credited in the USAR Chapter 14 Safety Analysis (Ref. 5.1). The As Found Tolerance of + 1.525 % of T span = + 2.288 % T Power(1) is based on the COT error components from CSA Calculation (Ref. 5.94).

Adding the Total Loop Uncertainty (TLU) to the Analytical Limit (AL) yields a Limiting Trip Setpoint (LTSP) of 1858.82 PSIG. Adding the NON COT error components to the Analytical Limit yields an Allowable Value (AV) of 1855.94 PSIG. The Actual Nominal Trip Setpoint of 1904 PSIG is conservative with respect to the Limiting Trip Setpoint. The current Custom Technical Specification (CTS) LSSS value of > 1875 PSIG is conservative with respect to the Allowable Value. The current Custom Technical Specification (CTS) LSSS value of > 1875 PSIG is non-conservative based on the calculated COT error components determined in Calculation C10818 (Ref. 5.93). The LSSS value of >
1875 PSIG will be changed to an As Found Tolerance value of > 1894 PSIG to conform to the requirements of TSFT-493, Rev. 4 and RIS 2006-17. This As Found Tolerance is based on a Nominal Trip Setpoint value of 1904.0 PSIG. The Nominal Trip Setpoint value of 1904 PSIG will allow a 10.0 PSIG margin to be used for the COT error components. The As Found Tolerance value of > 1894 PSIG is sufficiently close enough to the calculated value using the CSA rack error terms from Calculation C10818 (Ref. 5.93).
The calculated As Found Tolerance for this function is > 1894.20 PSIG. The 0.20 PSIG offset is accommodated in the 45.18 PSIG Safety Margin for this trip as illustrated in Figure 4.5.9.

Subtracting the Total Loop Uncertainty (TLU) from the Analytical Limit (AL) yields a Limiting Trip Setpoint (LTSP) of 2387.64 PSIG. Subtracting the NON COT error components from the Analytical Limit yields an Allowable Value (AV) of 2389.78 PSIG. The Actual Nominal Trip Setpoint of 2377 PSIG is conservative with respect to the Limiting Trip Setpoint. The current Custom Technical Specification (CTS) LSSS value < 2385 PSIG is conservative with respect to the Allowable Value. The CTS LSSS value < 2385 PSIG will be revised to an As Found Tolerance Value of < 2386 PSIG based on the COT error components calculated below. The revised As Found Tolerance Value of < 2386 PSIG is also conservative with respect to the Allowable Value, however it is slightly non-conservative with respect to the calculated value using the CSA rack error components from Calculation C10818 (Ref 5.93). The calculated As Found Tolerance Value for this function is < 2385.94 PSIG. The 0.06 PSIG offset from the calculated value is accommodated within the Safety Margin for this function (i.e., 10.64 PSIG). The As Found Tolerance value of < 2386 PSIG is based on the Nominal Trip Setpoint value of 2377.0 PSIG.

Adding the NON COT error components to the Analytical Limit yields an Allowable Value (AV) of 90.27 % Flow.

The current Custom Technical Specification (CTS) LSSS for this function is > 75 % of normal voltage.
The current Nominal Trip Setpoint for this function is 91 to 93 VAC where 92 VAC is the centerline voltage = 76.667 % of voltage span (Ref. 5.127). This analysis assumes that 120 VAC from the potential transformer is equal to 100 % of bus voltage/normal voltage which is equal to 4160 VAC. The Reactor Coolant Pump Undervoltage Trip function is not credited in the Kewaunee USAR Chapter 14 Safety Analysis (Ref. 5.1); however a Channel Statistical Allowance (CSA) Calculation has been performed for this function. The calibration accuracy for this trip function is 92 + 1.0 VAC = 76.667 + 0.833 % of normal voltage (Ref. 5.127). The COT error from Calculation C11891 is + 1.06 VAC = + 0.885 % of normal voltage. Therefore, the As Found Tolerance for the Reactor Coolant Pump Undervoltage Trip is 76.667 + 0.885 % of normal voltage = 92 + 1.06 VAC based on device calibration accuracy and drift from Reference 5.128. The As Left Tolerance for the Reactor Coolant Pump Undervoltage Trip is 76.667 + 0.833 % of normal voltage = 92 + 1.0 VAC based on the device calibration accuracy from Reference 5.127. The As Found and As Left Tolerances are based on maintaining a Nominal Trip Setpoint Value 92 VAC = 76.667 % of normal voltage.

Based on Calculation C11890 (Ref. 5.126), the COT error allowance for this function is + 0.3 Hz. The calibration accuracy for this trip function is + 0.1 Hz (Ref. 5.127). The As Found Tolerance of 57 + 0.3 Hz is based on the COT error from Calculation C11890 and the As Left Tolerance of 57 + 0.1 Hz is conservatively based on device calibration accuracy from Reference 5.127.

Note: The Analytical Limit for this function is 0.0 % NR Level (Ref. 5.1). The Channel Statistical Allowance (CSA) for this function has a large negative Process Measurement Accuracy (PMA) bias term which results in a negative CSA value. For conservatism, the absolute value of the larger CSA value from Reference 5.97 will be used in this analysis.
Adding the Total Loop Uncertainty (TLU) to the Analytical Limit (AL) yields a Limiting Trip Setpoint (LTSP) of 4.496 % NR Level. Adding the NON COT error components to the Analytical Limit yields an Allowable Value (AV) of 4.087 % NR Level. The Actual Nominal Trip Setpoint of 17.0 % NR Level (Ref. 5.112) is conservative with respect to the Limiting Trip Setpoint and the current Custom Technical Specification (CTS) LSSS value of > 5.0 % NR Level is conservative with respect to the Allowable Value. The CTS LSSS value of > 5.0 % NR Level is non-conservative based on the calculated COT error components determined in Calculation C11116 (Ref. 5.97). The CTS LSSS value of > 5.0 % NR Level will be changed to an As Found Tolerance value of > 15.88 % NR Level to conform to the requirements of TSFT-493, Rev. 4 and RIS 2006-17. The As Found Tolerance Value of
> 15.88 % NR Level is based on maintaining a Nominal Trip Setpoint value of 17.0 % NR Level.
The statistical combination of the COT and NON COT error components from CSA Calculation C11116 (Ref. 5.97) are given below. The COT and NON COT error components are used in Figure 4.5.15 to determine the Limiting Trip Setpoint (LTSP) and the Allowable Value (AV).

The Steam Flow Feed Flow Mismatch Coincident Reactor Trip is not addressed in the current version of Kewaunees Custom Technical Specifications (CTS). This function will now be included in the Setpoint Control Program based on the requirements of ITS Table 3.3.1-1, item 15. The current Nominal Trip Setpoint for this function is 0.87
- 106 Pound Per Hour (PPH) (Ref. 5.108). Based on Reference 5.108, the maximum Steam and Feedwater flowrate is 4.47
- 106 PPH and the nominal flowrate at 100 % power (i.e., Flownom) is 3.82
- 106 PPH (Ref. 5.98). This means that the current Nominal Trip Setpoint is set at 22.77 % of Flownom. The Steam Flow Feed Flow Mismatch Coincident Reactor Trip function is not credited in the Kewaunee USAR Chapter 14 Safety Analysis (Ref. 5.1) and a Channel Statistical Allowance (CSA) Calculation has not been performed for this function. The COT error allowance for this function will be based on the applicable module calibration accuracies given in Reference 5.108 and the standard + 1.0 % of span Rack Drift (RD) value from Reference 5.5. Based on References 5.108 and 5.130, there are four modules with calibration accuracies that develop this trip function.

4.5.19 Permissive P-6, Intermediate Range Neutron Flux As Found Tolerance: Permissive P-6 unblock should occur between 1
- 10-5% Rated Power and 1.27
- 10-5% Rated Power (Refs. 5.1, 5.90, and 5.116)
The current Custom Technical Specification (CTS) LSSS for this function is > 10-5% Rated Power. The current Nominal Trip Setpoint for this function is set equal to the CTS LSSS value, i.e., 1
- 10-5% Rated Power. Permissive P-6 is not credited in the Kewaunee USAR Chapter 14 Safety Analysis (Ref. 5.1) and a Channel Statistical Allowance (CSA) calculation has not been performed for this function. The COT error allowance for this function will be based on a portion of the calibration accuracy for the Intermediate Range Front Panel Meter at the nominal unblock trip setpoint value of 1
- 10-5% Rated Power, i.e., 7.9
- 10-6% Rated Power to 1.27
- 10-5% Rated Power as specified in Reference 5.116.
Only the high end of the tolerance value will be used to develop the As Found Tolerance for this function such that the current CTS LSSS value of 10-5% Rated Power will be the low end of the tolerance. The As Found Trip for Permissive P-6 should occur between 1
- 10-5% Rated Power and 1.27
- 10-5% Rated Power. Since this As Found Tolerance does not include a Rack Drift value, the As Left Tolerance will be equal to the As Found Tolerance.

The current Custom Technical Specification (CTS) LSSS for Permissive P-7 is < 12.2 % of Rated Power for both inputs, i.e., P-10 and P-13. Permissive P-7 is not credited in the Kewaunee USAR Chapter 14 Safety Analysis (Ref. 5.1); however, a Channel Statistical Allowance (CSA) Calculation has been performed for Permissive P-10. Permissive P-7 is made up of input signals from Turbine First Stage Pressure (P-13) and NIS Power Range (P-10). Signals to the P-7 and P-10 permissives are supplied from the same bistables in the NIS Power Range drawers. P-7 and P-10 will both enable and block functions from the trip and reset points of these bistables. The calibration procedure (Ref. 5.104) for the NIS Power Range P-10 unblock input into Permissive P-7 sets the Nominal Trip Setpoint at 11.0
% RTP (increasing). The current Nominal Trip Setpoint for the Turbine First Stage Pressure input to P-7, i.e., P-13 is 8.8 % of Turbine Load (e.g., based on a nominal Turbine First Stage Pressure value of 583.5 PSIG @ 100 % Power). The COT error associated with P-10 taken from Calculation C11705 (Ref. 5.91) is + 1.085 % of span = + 1.3 % RTP (round back to + 1.2 % RTP)(1). The COT error Enclosure (7 of 8), Q&A to Attachment 1, Volume 8 (Section 3.3) Page 239 of 501

The As Found Tolerance for the P-10 input to P-7 is 11.0 + 1.2 % RTP(1). The As Left Tolerance for the P-10 input to P-7 is 11.0 + 0.5 % RTP(2). The As Found Tolerance for the P-13 input to P-7 is 8.8 + 1.25 % Turbine Load(3). The As Left Tolerance for the P-13 input to P-7 is 8.8 + 0.56 % Turbine Load(4).

(3) AFT = + (PC-466A2 + RD2) 1/2 = + (0.52 + 1.02) 1/2 = + 1.12 % of span. The range of the Turbine First Stage Pressure Transmitters is 0 to 650 PSIG and the nominal 100 % Power pressure is 583.5 PSIG. (1.12 %/100 %)*650 PSIG = 7.28 PSIG. Then, (7.28 PSIG/583.5 PSIG)
- 100 % Turbine Load = 1.25 % Turbine Load.
(4) ALT = + 0.5 % of span = (0.5 %/100 %)*650 PSIG = 3.25 PSIG. Then, (3.25 PSIG/583.5 PSIG)

0.56 % Turbine Load.
4.5.21 Permissive P-8, Power Range Neutron Flux As Found Tolerance (AFT) = 9.5 % RTP + 1.3 % RTP (Refs. 5.1, 5.90, 5.91, and 5.104)
The current Custom Technical Specification (CTS) LSSS for Permissive P-8 is < 10.0 % of Rated Power. The Nominal Trip Setpoint for the unblock portion of Permissive P-8 is 9.5 % RTP (Ref. 5.104).
Permissive P-8 is not credited in the Kewaunee USAR Chapter 14 Safety Analysis (Ref. 5.1) and a Channel Statistical Allowance (CSA) Calculation has not been performed for this function. However, CSA Calculation C11705 (Ref. 5.91) has identified the COT error components associated with Permissive P-10 which uses identical circuitry to that of Permissive P-8 to generate their respective functions. The COT error associated with Permissive P-10, taken from Calculation C11705 (Ref. 5.91),
is + 1.085 % of span = + 1.3 % RTP(1). This COT error is also applicable for Permissive P-8 and will be used to develop the As Found Tolerance. Based on a Nominal Trip Setpoint of 9.5 % RTP and a COT error of + 1.3 % RTP, the As Found Tolerance for Permissive P-8 is 9.5 + 1.3 % RTP. Note that the high end of the As Found Tolerance (i.e., 9.5 % RTP + 1.3 % RTP = 10.8 % RTP) is non-conservative with respect to the current CTS LSSS of < 10 % RTP, however this As Found tolerance is acceptable because there is no specific Analytical Limit associated with this permissive. The As Left Tolerance will be equal to the COT error minus Rack Drift (RD)(2). The As Found and As Left Tolerance are based on maintaining a Nominal Trip Setpoint of 9.5 % RTP.
As Found Tolerance (AFT) = 9.5 % RTP + 1.3 % RTP(1)
As Left Tolerance (ALT) = 9.5 % RTP + 0.5 % RTP(2)

The current Custom Technical Specification (CTS) LSSS for Permissive P-10 (i.e., unblock the low power trips) is > 7.8 % of Rated Power. The calibration procedure (Ref. 5.104) for the NIS Power Range P-10 unblock of the low power trips sets the Nominal Trip Setpoint at 9.0 % RTP (decreasing).
Permissive P-10 is not credited in the Kewaunee USAR Chapter 14 Safety Analysis (Ref. 5.1); however, a Channel Statistical Allowance (CSA) Calculation has been performed for this function. Based on Reference 5.91, the COT error associated with P-10 is + 1.085 % of span = + 1.3 % RTP(1). This COT error will be used to develop the As Found Tolerance for this function. Based on a Nominal Trip Setpoint of 9.0 % RTP and a COT error of + 1.3 % RTP, the As Found Tolerance for Permissive P-10 is 9.0 + 1.3 % RTP. Note that the low end of the As Found Tolerance (i.e., 9.0 % RTP - 1.3 % RTP = 7.7
% RTP) is non-conservative with respect to the current CTS LSSS of > 7.8 % RTP, however this As Found tolerance is acceptable because there is no specific Analytical Limit associated with this permissive. The As Left Tolerance will be equal to the COT error minus Rack Drift (RD)(2). The As Found and As Left Tolerance are based on maintaining a Nominal Trip Setpoint of 9.0 % RTP.

Subtracting the Total Loop Uncertainty (TLU) from the Analytical Limit (AL) yields a Limiting Trip Setpoint (LTSP) of 4.237 PSIG. Subtracting the NON COT error components from the Analytical Limit yields an Allowable Value (AV) of 4.328 PSIG. The current CTS Setting Limit for this function is < 4.0 PSIG. The CTS Setting Limit for this function of < 4.0 PSIG is conservative with respect to the Allowable Value, however it is non-conservative with respect to the calculated As Found Tolerance value of 3.6 PSIG + 0.335 PSIG (i.e., 3.935 PSIG) . The Actual Nominal Trip Setpoint of 3.6 PSIG is conservative with respect to the Limiting Trip Setpoint. The CTS Setting Limit of < 4.0 PSIG will be changed to an As Found Tolerance value of 3.6 PSIG + 0.335 PSIG to conform to the requirements of TSFT-493, Rev. 4 and RIS 2006-17.
The statistical combination of the COT and NON COT error components from CSA Calculation C11006 (Ref. 5.95) are given below. The COT and NON COT error components are used in Figure 4.6.2 to determine the Limiting Trip Setpoint (LTSP) and the Allowable Value (AV).

As Found Tolerance: 1830 PSIG + 10 PSIG (Refs. 5.1, 5.90, 5.93, and 5.105)
Adding the Total Loop Uncertainty (TLU) to the Analytical Limit (AL) yields a Limiting Trip Setpoint (LTSP) of 1755.62 PSIG. Adding the NON COT error components to the Analytical Limit yields an Allowable Value (AV) of 1754.94 PSIG. The Actual Nominal Trip Setpoint of 1830 PSIG is conservative with respect to the Limiting Trip Setpoint. The current Custom Technical Specification (CTS) Setting Limit value of > 1815 PSIG is conservative with respect to the Allowable Value. The current Custom Technical Specification (CTS) LSSS value > 1815 PSIG is non-conservative based on the calculated COT error components determined in Calculation C10818 (Ref. 5.93). The Setting Limit value of > 1815 PSIG will be changed to an As Found Tolerance value of 1830 PSIG + 10.0 PSIG to conform to the requirements of TSFT-493, Rev. 4 and RIS 2006-17. The revised As Found Tolerance value of > 1820 PSIG will allow a 10.00 PSIG margin to be used for the COT error components. The revised As Found Tolerance value of > 1820 PSIG is conservative with respect to the calculated Allowable Value but is non-conservative with respect to the calculated As Found Tolerance value using the CSA rack error terms from Calculation C10818 (Ref. 5.93).
The calculated As Found Tolerance value for this function is > 1821.06 PSIG based on using the COT error components. The 1.06 PSIG offset is accommodated in the 74.38 PSIG Safety Margin for this trip as illustrated in Figure 4.6.5.
The statistical combination of the COT and NON COT error components from CSA Calculation C10818 (Ref. 5.93) are given below. The COT and NON COT error components are used in Figure 4.6.5 to determine the Limiting Trip Setpoint (LTSP) and the Allowable Value (AV).

The Low TAVG Coincidence input to the Steam Line Isolation ESFAS function is not credited in the Kewaunee USAR Chapter 14 Safety Analysis (Ref. 5.1); however a Channel Statistical Allowance (CSA) Calculation has been performed for this function.

The As Found Tolerance based on the COT error from Calculation C11865 is 541 oF + 1.38 oF. The CTS Setting Limit for this function of > 540.0 oF is set slightly conservative with respect to the calculated As Found Tolerance value of 541 oF + 1.38 oF (i.e.

The As Left Tolerance will be based on the COT error allowance minus Rack Drift (i.e., RD2 from Ref. 5.94).
The As Found and As Left Tolerances are based on maintaining a Nominal Trip Setpoint Value of 541 o

4.6.9 Steam Line Pressure - Low As Found Tolerance: 514.0 PSIG + 17.15 PSIG (Refs. 5.1, 5.90, 5.98, and 5.108)
Adding the Total Loop Uncertainty (TLU) to the Analytical Limit (AL) yields a Limiting Trip Setpoint (LTSP) of 511.066 PSIG. Adding the NON COT error components to the Analytical Limit yields an Allowable Value (AV) of 504.01 PSIG. The Actual Nominal Trip Setpoint of 514.0 PSIG is conservative with respect to the Limiting Trip Setpoint. The current Custom Technical Specifications (CTS) Setting Limit of > 500 PSIG is non-conservative with respect to the calculated Allowable Value and is conservative with respect to the calculated As Found Tolerance. The As Found Tolerance of 514 PSIG + 17.15 PSIG is based on the calculated COT error allowance from Calculation C10854 (Ref.
5.98). The Custom Technical Specifications (CTS) Setting Limit of > 500 PSIG will be changed to an As Found Tolerance of 514 PSIG + 17.15 PSIG to conform to the requirements of TSFT-493, Rev. 4 and RIS 2006-17. The calculated As Left Tolerance will be based on the COT error allowance from Calculation C10854 minus Rack Drift (RD). The As Found and As Left Tolerances are based on maintaining a Nominal Trip Setpoint of 514.0 PSIG.

As Found Tolerance: 84.47 + 0.200 % of Bus Voltage = 101.69 + 0.241 VAC with a time delay of 1.75 seconds + 0.25 seconds (Refs. 5.1, 5.90, 5.102, & 5.129)
The current Custom Technical Specification (CTS) Setting Limit for this function is 85 % + 2 % of bus voltage in < 2.5 secs. The current Nominal Trip Setpoint for this function is 101.49 to 101.89 VAC where 101.69 VAC is the centerline voltage = 84.47 % of bus voltage(1) (Ref. 5.102 & 5.129). This analysis assumes that 120.39 VAC from the potential transformer is equal to 100 % of bus voltage which is equal to 4160 VAC per the conversion factor as noted in footnote 1. The Safeguards Bus Undervoltage Loss of Power Trip is not credited in the Kewaunee USAR Chapter 14 Safety Analysis (Ref. 5.1); however a Channel Statistical Allowance (CSA) calculation has been performed for this function. The calibration accuracy for this trip is 101.69 + 0.2 VAC = 84.47 + 0.166 % of bus voltage (1)
(Ref. 5.129). The COT error from Calculation C11709 is + 0.200 % of bus voltage = + 0.241 VAC.
Therefore, the As Found Tolerance for the Safeguards Bus Undervoltage Loss of Power Trip is 84.47 +
0.200 % of bus voltage = 101.69 + 0.241 VAC(1) based on the device calibration accuracy from Reference 5.102. The As Left Tolerance for the Safeguards Bus Undervoltage Loss of Power Trip is 84.47 + 0.166 % of bus voltage = 101.69 + 0.200 VAC based on the device calibration accuracy from Reference 5.129. The As Found Tolerance and As Left Tolerance are based on maintaining a Nominal Trip Setpoint Value of 101.69 VAC = 84.47 % of bus voltage.
The time delay associated with this trip is based on a setpoint of 1.75 seconds + 0.01 seconds (Ref.
5.129). Calculation C11709 (Ref. 5.102) gives a total error associated with the relays as 14.14 % of the settings. Utilizing the total error of 14.14 % of the setting provides a range of 1.50 seconds to 2.00 seconds based on a setpoint of 1.75 seconds. Therefore, the Time Delay As Found Tolerance is 1.75 seconds + 0.25 seconds. The Time Delay As Left Tolerance is 1.75 + 0.10(5) second based on the device calibration accuracy from Reference 5.129.
As Found Tolerance (AFT) = 84.47 + 0.200 % of bus voltage = 101.69 + 0.241 VAC(2)
As Left Tolerance (ALT) = 84.47 + 0.166 % of bus voltage = 101.69 + 0.200 VAC(3)
Time Delay As Found Tolerance = 1.75 Seconds + 0.25 seconds Time Delay As Left Tolerance = 1.75 Seconds + 0.10 seconds(5)
As Found Tolerance (AFT) = 84.15 + 0.200 % of bus voltage = 101.31 + 0.241 VAC(4)
As Left Tolerance (ALT) = 84.15 + 0.166 % of bus voltage = 101.31 + 0.200 VAC(4)
(1) Convert % bus Voltage to VAC as follows:
4160*(% bus Volts / 100) / (sqrt (3)

(2) AFT = + SCA = + 0.200 % bus voltage (From Reference 5.102).
(3) ALT = Current Calibration Accuracy from Reference 5.129 = + 0.166 % bus voltage.
(4) Calculation C11709 (Ref. 5.102) recommends a setpoint change for the Safeguards Bus Undervoltage Loss of Voltage Trip. The recommended setpoint will be 101.31 + 0.200 VAC = 84.15 + 0.166 % of bus voltage for the relay Dropout.

Enclosure (7 of 8), Q&A to Attachment 1, Volume 8 (Section 3.3) Page 259 of 501 EE-0116 Page 191 of 205 Revision 6 The COT error from Calculation C11709 is + 0.200 % of bus voltage = + 0.241 VAC. Therefore, the As Found Tolerance for the Safeguards Bus Undervoltage Loss of Power Trip is 84.15 + 0.200 % of bus voltage = 101.31 + 0.241 VAC based on the device calibration accuracy from Reference 5.102. The As Left Tolerance for the Safeguards Bus Undervoltage Loss of Power Trip is 84.15 + 0.166 % of bus voltage = 101.31 + 0.200 VAC based on the recommendation from Reference 5.102. The As Found Tolerance and As Left Tolerance are based on implementing the recommendations of Calculation C11709 and setting the Nominal Trip Setpoint to a value of 101.31 VAC = 84.15 % of bus voltage. The same Time Delay Tolerances apply for the new setpoints.
(5) Undervoltage relays 27A/B5, 27C/B5, 26A/B6, 27C/B6 have an As Left time delay of 0.01 seconds listed in the Electrical Preventive Maintenance Procedures with an As Found time delay of 0.1 seconds. The procedure value of 0.01 seconds is conservative to the As Left Tolerance of 0.1 seconds as described above.
4.7.2 Safeguards Bus Second Level Undervoltage (Degraded Voltage)
As Found Tolerance: 93.80 + 0.179 % of bus voltage = 112.93 + 0.215 VAC with a time delay of 6.72 seconds + 0.68 seconds (Refs. 5.1, 5.90, 5.102, & 5.129)
The current Custom Technical Specification (CTS) Setting Limit for this function is 93.6 % + 0.9 % of bus voltage in < 7.4 secs. The current Nominal Trip Setpoint for this function is 112.73 to 113.13 VAC where 112.93 VAC is the centerline voltage = 93.80 % of bus voltage(1) (Ref. 5.102 & 5.129). This analysis assumes that 120.39 VAC from the potential transformer is equal to 100 % of bus voltage which is equal to 4160 VAC per the conversion factor as noted in footnote 1. The Safeguards Bus Second Level Undervoltage Degraded Voltage Trip is not credited in the Kewaunee USAR Chapter 14 Safety Analysis (Ref. 5.1); however a Channel Statistical Allowance (CSA) calculation has been performed for this function. The calibration accuracy for this trip is 112.93 + 0.2 VAC = 93.80 + 0.166
% of bus voltage (1) (Ref. 5.129). The COT error from Calculation C11709 is + 0.179 % of bus voltage =
+ 0.215 VAC. Therefore, the As Found Tolerance for the Safeguards Bus Second Level Undervoltage Degraded Voltage Trip is 93.80 + 0.179 % of bus voltage = 112.93 + 0.215 VAC based on the device calibration accuracy from Reference 5.102. The As Left Tolerance for the Safeguards Bus Second Level Undervoltage Degraded Voltage Trip is 93.80 + 0.166 % of bus voltage = 112.93 + 0.200 VAC based on the device calibration accuracy from Reference 5.129. The As Found Tolerance and As Left Tolerance are based on maintaining a Nominal Trip Setpoint Value of 112.93 VAC = 93.80 % of bus voltage.
The time delay associated with this trip is based on a setpoint of 6.72 seconds + 0.01 seconds (Ref.
5.129). Calculation C11709 (Ref. 5.102) gives a total error associated with the relays as 10.1 % of the settings. Utilizing the total error of 10.1 % of the setting provides a range of 6.04 seconds to 7.40 seconds based on a setpoint of 6.72 seconds. Therefore, the Time Delay As Found Tolerance is 6.72 seconds + 0.68 seconds. The Time Delay As Left Tolerance is 6.72 + 0.10(5) second based on the device calibration accuracy from Reference 5.129.
As Found Tolerance (AFT) = 93.80 + 0.179 % of bus voltage = 112.93 + 0.215 VAC(2)
As Left Tolerance (ALT) = 93.80 + 0.166 % of bus voltage = 112.93 + 0.200 VAC (3)
Time Delay As Found Tolerance = 6.72 Seconds + 0.68 seconds Time Delay As Left Tolerance = 6.72 Seconds + 0.10 seconds(5)
As Found Tolerance (AFT) = 93.50 + 0.200 % of bus voltage = 112.57 + 0.215 VAC(4)

The COT error from Calculation C11709 is + 0.179 % of bus voltage = + 0.215 VAC. Therefore, the As Found Tolerance for the Safeguards Bus Undervoltage Degraded Voltage Trip is 93.50 + 0.179 % of bus voltage = 112.57 +
0.215 VAC based on the device calibration accuracy from Reference 5.102. The As Left Tolerance for the Safeguards Bus Undervoltage Degraded Voltage Trip is 93.50 + 0.166 % of bus voltage = 112.57 + 0.200 VAC based on the recommendation from Reference 5.102. The As Found Tolerance and As Left Tolerance are based on implementing the recommendations of Calculation C11709 and setting the Nominal Trip Setpoint to a value of 112.57 VAC = 93.50 % of bus voltage. The same Time Delay Tolerances apply for the new setpoints.
(5) Undervoltage (Degraded Voltage) relays 27AY/B5, 27CY/B5, 26AY/B6, 27CY/B6 have an As Left time delay of 0.01 seconds listed in the Electrical Preventive Maintenance Procedures with an As Found time delay of 0.1 seconds. The procedure value of 0.01 seconds is conservative to the As Left Tolerance of 0.1 seconds as described above.
4.7.3 Forebay Level As Found Tolerance: 162 H2O + 9 H2O (Refs. 5.1, 5.90, 5.101 & 5.121)
The current Custom Technical Specifications (CTS) do not list a Setting Limit value associated with the Forebay Level Trip. The Forebay Level Trip function is not credited in the Kewaunee USAR Chapter 14 Safety Analysis (Ref. 5.1). The current As Found Nominal Trip Setpoint for this function is 162 Inches H2O Decreasing + 9.0 Inches H2O per Reference 5.121. The current As Left Nominal Trip Setpoint is 162 Inches H2O Decreasing + 4.5 Inches H2O per Reference 5.121. Per Calculation C11220 (Ref.
5.101) testing concluded that at a water level of 565 3, acceptable conditions exist for continued operation of the SW pumps. The setpoint of 162 H2O is equivalent to 566 Forebay water level per Reference 5.101, which yields a difference of 9 H2O to be used for the As Found Tolerance.

Response
2/9/2010 8:35 AM Date/Time Closure Statement Response KPS agrees with the NRC reviewer that the Service Water Pressure - Low setpoint was not Statement included in Technical Report EE-0116, Rev. 5 (the revision provided to the NRC in LAR 249 supplement letter from J. Allan Price (Dominion Energy Kewaunee, Inc.) to the NRC Document Control Desk, dated October 17, 2009). However, Technical Report EE-0116, Rev. 6 was approved on 1-14-10 and now includes Service Water Pressure - Low in Section 4.7.7. The Kewaunee-specific sections of the EE-0116, Rev. 6 document are attached to the response to KAB-070 and replace the previously provided Rev. 5. Differences from the two revisions are highlighted for ease of use. Section 4.7.7 is on Page 195 of 205.

Enclosure (7 of 8), Q&A to Attachment 1, Volume 8 (Section 3.3) Page 287 of 501 EE-0116 Page 4 of 205 Revision 6 2.0 OVERVIEW 2.1 Definitions Accuracy - A degree of conformity of an indicated value to a recognized, accepted standard value or ideal value.
Allowable Value (AV) - is the threshold value used to determine channel operability during the performance of channel functional tests and channel calibrations. The AV is the limiting as found setting for the channel trip setpoint that accounts for all of the NON-COT error components from the CSA Calculation in accordance with Methods 1 or 2 from ISA-RP67.04.02-2000 and ISA-RP67.04-Part II-1994.
Analytical Limit (AL) - The setpoint value assumed in the Safety Analysis. In the context of this document, the Analytical Limit is the same as the Safety Analysis Limit (SAL).
As Found Tolerance (AFT) - For Surry and North Anna, the As Found Tolerance is equal to the Allowable Value or Limiting Safety System Setting (LSSS)/Setting Limit listed in Technical Specifications. For Kewaunee, the As Found Tolerance is equal to the statistical combination of the rack error components and rack drift.
As Left Tolerance (ALT) - is not applicable for Surry and North Anna. For Kewaunee the As Left Tolerance is equal to the statistical combination of the rack error components minus the rack drift.
Calibrated Range - The calibration span of the sensor/transmitter as it applies to the indicated process range of the loop/system.
Channel Statistical Allowance (CSA) - The total instrument loop uncertainty (usually expressed in percent of instrument span) where non-interactive error components are combined statistically and interactive error components are summed arithmetically in accordance with Dominion Standard STD-EEN-0304 (Ref. 5.5).
The generic CSA equation and a summary of error terms are provided below in Table 2.1.
Channel Operational Test (COT) - A COT shall be the injection of a simulated or actual signal into the channel as close to the sensor as practicable to verify OPERABILITY of all devices in the channel required for channel OPERABILITY. The COT shall include adjustments, as necessary, of the required alarm, interlock, and trip setpoints required for channel OPERABILITY such that the setpoints are within the necessary range and accuracy. The COT may be performed by means of any series of sequential, overlapping, or total channel steps. In the context of this document, the Channel Operational Test is the same as a Channel Periodic Test or Channel Functional Test.
Instrument Loop - An arrangement or chain of modules or components as required to generate one or more protective/control signals and/or provide indication and recording functions. An Instrument Loop normally includes the following five elements; the process, a transmitter/sensor, process electronics, indications and/or automatic control elements.

Enclosure (7 of 8), Q&A to Attachment 1, Volume 8 (Section 3.3) Page 288 of 501 EE-0116 Page 5 of 205 Revision 6 Limiting Safety System Setting (LSSS) - The LSSS is a term used in the Surry Power Station CTS to define the threshold value used to determine channel operability during the performance of channel functional tests and channel calibrations. In the context of this document, the CTS LSSS or Setting Limit used for Surry Power Station is equivalent to the ITS Allowable Value used for North Anna Power Station and the As Found Tolerance for Kewaunee.
Limiting Trip Setpoint (LTSP) - Based on RIS 2006-17 and TSTF-493, Rev. 4, the LTSP is the limiting setting for the channel trip setpoint considering all credible instrument errors associated with the instrument channel (Refs. 5.99 and 5.100).
Margin - The resultant value when the Channel Statistical Allowance (CSA) value is subtracted from the Total Allowance Value (usually expressed in percent of span or the process/signal values corresponding to these).
Module - A generic term for a Westinghouse Nuclear Instrumentation Module, Westinghouse 7300 Series PC Card, Foxboro Module, NUS Module, or a Westinghouse/Hagan 7100 Electronic Module.
Nominal Trip Setpoint (NTSP) - The desired setpoint for the variable. Initial calibration and subsequent re-calibrations should be made at the Nominal Trip Setpoint value specified in approved plant documentation.
According to RIS 2006-17 and TSTF-493, Rev. 4 (Refs. 5.99 and 5.100), the NTSP is the Limiting Trip Setpoint with margin added. The NTSP is always equal to or more conservative than the LTSP.
Operating Margin - The difference between the nominal operating value for the process parameter and the most limiting trip/alarm setpoint/control limit (usually expressed in percent of span or the process/signal values corresponding to these).
Process Range - The upper and lower limits of the operating region for a device, e.g., for a Pressurizer Pressure Transmitter, 0 to 3000 PSIG, for Steam Generator Level, 0 to 100 % Level. This is not necessarily the calibrated range of the device, e.g., for the Pressurizer Pressure Transmitter, the typical calibrated range is 1700 to 2500 PSIG.
Rack Error Components - These are the error terms associated with the process modules that are used to develop a Channel Statistical Allowance (CSA) value for a particular trip/alarm function. These rack error components are the calibration tolerances associated with the process modules for a module calibration (M1, M2 ... Mn) or (RCA & RCSA) for string calibration and an uncertainty value to account for Rack Drift (RD). These rack error components are combined statistically to determine the maximum allowable error which, ideally, should be used to determine the Allowable Value/LSSS/Setting Limit.
Safety Analysis Limit (SAL) - The setpoint value assumed in the Safety Analysis. In the context of this document, the Safety Analysis Limit is equivalent to the Analytical Limit (AL).
Span - The difference between the upper and lower range values of a process parameter or the signal values corresponding to these.
Tolerance - The allowable deviation from an ideal calculated value.

(M2+M2MTE)2 + + (Mn+MnMTE)2 + RD2 + RTE2 + RRA2]1/2 Systematic Error (SE) Systematic Error is treated as a bias (unidirectional) and is always placed outside (NON-COT) of the radical. Examples of Systematic Error are transmitter reference leg heatup, uncorrected Sensor Pressure Effects (SPE) and the SG Mid Deck Plate bias.
Environmental Allowance (EA) Environmental Allowance is normally associated with instrument loop sensors and (NON-COT) equipment that is subjected to a HARSH environment during DBE and/or PDBE conditions. EA is made up of Insulation Resistance (IR) Effects, Radiation Effects (RE), Steam Pressure Temperature Effects (SPTE) and Seismic Mounting Effects (SME).
Process Measurement Accuracy (PMA) Process Measurement Accuracy is an allowance for non-instrument related effects (NON-COT) that directly influence the accuracy of the instrument loop. Examples of PMA are fluid stratification effects on temperature measurement and the effects of fluid density changes on level measurement.
Primary Element Accuracy (PEA) Primary Element Accuracy is an allowance for the inaccuracies of the system (NON-COT) element that quantitatively converts the measured variable energy into a form suitable for measurement.
Sensor Calibration Accuracy (SCA) Sensor Calibration Accuracy is a number or quantity that defines a limit that errors (NON-COT) will not exceed when a sensor is used under specified operating conditions, i.e.,
the calibration accuracy of the sensor.
Sensor Measuring & Test Equipment (SMTE) Sensor Measuring & Test Equipment is associated with the accuracy of the (NON-COT) Measuring and Test Equipment (M&TE) used to calibrate the loop sensor(s).
Examples of SMTE are Test Gauges and Digital Multimeters (DMM).
Sensor Drift (SD) Sensor Drift is an allowance for the change in the input versus output relationship (NON-COT) of the sensor over a period of time under specified reference operating conditions.
Sensor Pressure Effects (SPE) Sensor Pressure Effects are allowances for the steady-state pressure applied to a (NON-COT) device. Normally, SPE applies only for differential pressure devices and is associated with the change in input-output relationship due to a change in static pressure. SPE is divided into two terms, Static Pressure Zero Effect (SPZE) and Static Pressure Span Effect (SPSE).
Sensor Temperature Effects (STE) Sensor Temperature Effect is an allowance for the effects of changes in the (NON-COT) ambient temperature surrounding the sensor.
Sensor Power Supply Effect (SPSE) Sensor Power Supply Effect is an allowance for the effects of changes in the (NON-COT) power supply voltage applied to the sensor.
Module Calibration Accuracy (M1 through Mn) Module M1 to Mn is an Allowance for the accuracy of an assembly of (COT) interconnected components that constitute an identifiable device, instrument, or piece of equipment. A module can be disconnected, removed as a unit and replaced with a spare. It has definable performance characteristics that permit it to be tested as a unit.
Module Measuring & Test Equipment (MnMTE) Module Measuring & Test Equipment is associated with the accuracy of the (NON-COT) Measuring and Test Equipment (M&TE) used to calibrate the loop module(s).
Examples of MnMTE are Decade Boxes, Digital Multimeters (DMM), Test Point Resistors (TPR), Oscilloscopes and Recorders.
Rack Drift (RD) Rack Drift is an allowance for the change in the input versus output relationship of (COT) the Rack Modules (M1 through Mn) over a period of time under specified reference operating conditions.
Rack Temperature Effect (RTE) Sensor Temperature Effect is an allowance for the effects of changes in the (NON-COT) ambient temperature surrounding the Process Racks.
Rack Readability Allowance (RRA) Rack Readability Allowance is an allowance for the inability to read analog (N/A) indicators because of parallax distortion.

Enclosure (7 of 8), Q&A to Attachment 1, Volume 8 (Section 3.3) Page 291 of 501 EE-0116 Page 8 of 205 Revision 6 2.2 The Significance of the Allowable Value 2.2.1 Background Historically, for plants that have used Westinghouse Standardized Technical Specifications (STS) such as North Anna, two values have been provided for each Reactor Trip System (RTS) and Engineered Safety Features Actuation System (ESFAS) trip function; they are referred to as the "Nominal Trip Setpoint" and the "Allowable Value" (in the context of this document, the Allowable Value, Limiting Safety System Setting LSSS and the Setting Limit are the same). The difference in percent of span between the Nominal Trip Setpoint and the Allowable Value was calculated, in most cases, based on a summation of the errors associated with the rack components and rack drift. For linear, non-complex trip functions, this value normally worked out to be between 1.0 % and 2.0 % of span. For complex trip functions or functions that had limited margin with respect to the Safety Analysis Limit, other calculational methods were used to determine the difference between the Nominal Trip Setpoint and the Allowable Value. For plants that do not use the Westinghouse STS version of Technical Specifications such as Surry, normally only one setpoint value (assumed to be the Limiting Safety System Setting LSSS or the Setting Limit at Surry) is provided in the text with no guidance as to how to set the actual "Nominal" Trip Setpoint in the plant.
Based on the early versions of the Westinghouse STS, the original definition of the LSSS (i.e., the Allowable Value) was stated as follows:
"A setting chosen to prevent exceeding a Safety Analysis Limit".
This Allowable Value was intended to be used during monthly or quarterly Functional Testing as a "flag" such that if a bistable (comparator) Trip Setpoint exceeded this value, the protection channel would be declared inoperable and plant staff would be required to initiate corrective action. The intended significance of this value is that it is the point where if the value is exceeded, the implication is that the actual rack electronics and/or associated rack error components have exceeded the values assumed in the Channel Statistical Allowance (CSA) Calculation and consequently, the margin with respect to the Safety Analysis Limit has been reduced.
The Allowable Value takes on added significance when there is little or no retained/available margin with respect to the Safety Analysis Limit and conversely takes on reduced significance in proportion to the amount of retained/available margin.
2.2.2 Addressing Recent NRC Concerns Associated with Allowable Values Dominion Corporate I&C Engineering attended a meeting with the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) and Nuclear Energy Institute (NEI) in Rockville, MD on October 8, 2003 to evaluate NRC concerns associated with the Allowable Values used in Technical Specifications. The Allowable Values of interest are those associated with Reactor Protection System (RPS) (e.g., also known as the Reactor Trip System RTS) and Engineered Safety Features Actuation System (ESFAS) Functions that are credited in the Plant Specific Safety Analysis. The NRC expressed a basic concern at the meeting where they have identified various plants that use a method to calculate Allowable Values for RTS and ESFAS functions that will reduce or eliminate margin to the Analytical Limit (AL), i.e., also known as the Safety Analysis Enclosure (7 of 8), Q&A to Attachment 1, Volume 8 (Section 3.3) Page 291 of 501
Enclosure (7 of 8), Q&A to Attachment 1, Volume 8 (Section 3.3) Page 292 of 501 EE-0116 Page 9 of 205 Revision 6 Limit (SAL). In the worst case scenario, the margin may be determined to be negative such that the protection function is operating outside of the analyzed region.
On August 13, 2003, NRC Staff met with members of the ISA 67.04 committee and other industry groups in Rockville, MD to discuss instrument setpoint methodology and lay out their position. The major area of discussion focused on the instrument setpoint methodology recommended in ISA Standard S67.04 used by many licensees for determining protection system instrumentation setpoints. Part II of the standard, not endorsed by the NRC Staff, includes three methods for calculating Allowable Values which represent the Limiting Safety System Settings (LSSS) as described in 10CFR50.36. As stated by the NRC, Methods 1 and 2 determine Allowable Values that are sufficiently conservative and are acceptable to the NRC Staff.
According to the NRC, Method 3 does not appear to provide an acceptable degree of conservatism and is of concern to the NRC Staff. In addition, there is also a disagreement between the NRC Staff and NEI/ISA/Some Industry Groups as to the meaning/intent of the LSSS. These items will be addressed in this document as they apply to Surry and North Anna.
As of August 2002 North Anna adopted Improved Technical Specifications (ITS). Within the North Anna ITS and ITS Bases, Allowable Values are explicitly defined and are uniquely associated with each RTS and ESFAS function, to include Backup Trips and Permissives. The Allowable Values specified in North Annas ITS as described in this Technical Report are based on Methods 1 or 2 from ISA-RP67.04.02-2000 and ISA-RP67.04-Part II-1994.
Surry Power Station has not adopted ITS and has decided to continue using their Custom Technical Specifications (CTS). For plants licensed before 1974, prior to the introduction of Standardized Technical Specifications (STS), the setpoints (i.e., Technical Specification Limits) included in CTS for RPS and ESFAS instrumentation were based on the plant specific setpoint study and/or based on settings provided in the Westinghouse Precautions, Limitations and Setpoints (PLS) document. The RPS and ESFAS trip setpoints specified in CTS did not include allowances for instrument uncertainties associated with channel functional testing (i.e., the COT). These allowances were left up to the licensee to deal with and justify. At the present time, this applies to Surry. In many cases, the original CTS setpoints for RPS and ESFAS instrumentation have been determined to be unacceptable based on todays standards and setpoint methodologies. To address this discrepancy, Technical Specification Change Request (TSCR) No. 318 was prepared to revise 16 Limiting Safety System Settings for the Reactor Protection System and 11 Setting Limits for the Engineered Safety Features Actuation System. The revised Limiting Safety System Settings and Setting Limits were calculated in accordance with Methods 1 or 2 from ISA-RP67.04.02-2000 and ISA-RP67.04-Part II-1994. TSCR No. 318 was approved by the USNRC via Surry Technical Specifications Amendments 261/261 dated September 23, 2008 (Serial # 080594). The revised Limiting Safety System Settings, Setting Limits, and four setpoint changes were implemented for Surry Units 1 and 2 in November of 2008.
At the present time, Kewaunee Power Station is also using Custom Technical Specifications (CTS).
Kewaunees CTS is very similar to the CTS used at Surry Power Station. Dominion has decided that Kewaunee will convert to Improved Technical Specifications (ITS) in the near future. As part of the ITS conversion, Kewaunee will remove their Reactor Protection System LSSSs, ESFAS Setting Limits (known as Allowable Values in ITS), Diesel Generator (LOOP), Containment Purge and Vent Isolation, and Control Room Post Accident Recirculation Actuation from Technical Specifications and maintain control of these and other critical limits in a Setpoint Control Program as allowed by Option B of TSTF-493, Enclosure (7 of 8), Q&A to Attachment 1, Volume 8 (Section 3.3) Page 292 of 501
Enclosure (7 of 8), Q&A to Attachment 1, Volume 8 (Section 3.3) Page 293 of 501 EE-0116 Page 10 of 205 Revision 6 Revision 4 (Ref. 5.99). The Setpoint Control Program will be administered as defined in ITS, Section 5.5.16 Setpoint Control Program. Like North Anna and Surry, the Allowable Values for RPS and ESFAS Instrumentation, as administered by the Setpoint Control Program will be calculated in accordance with Methods 1 or 2 from ISA-RP67.04.02-2000 and ISA-RP67.04-Part II-1994. The Kewaunee Diesel Generator (LOOP), Containment Purge and Vent Isolation, and Control Room Post Accident Recirculation Actuation instrumentation will be handled using Methods 1 and 2 as applicable.
The following subsections will focus on the meaning/intent of the Limiting Safety System Setting (LSSS) and the Allowable Value (AV) as understood by the NRC, ISA/NEI/Various Industry Groups and Dominion.
2.2.3 The NRC Staff Position Concerning the LSSS and AV The following LSSS information is based on information from the NRC presentation to the ISA 67.04 Committee on August 13, 2003.
10CFR50.36(C)(1)(ii)(A) defines the Limiting Safety System Setting (LSSS) as the setting that must be chosen so that the automatic protective action will correct the abnormal situation before a safety limit is exceeded.
New Improved TS Bases defines allowable value (AV) to be equivalent to LSSS and defines that a channel is operable if the trip setpoint is found not to exceed the AV during the Channel Operational Test (COT).
Prior to the issuance of NRC Regulatory Issue Summary (RIS) 2006-17, the NRC Staff believed that the Allowable Value (AV) is equivalent to the Limiting Safety System Setting (LSSS). Since the issuance of RIS 2006-17 (Ref. 5.100), the NRCs staff position is that the Limiting Trip Setpoint (LSP) protects the Safety Limit (SL) and relationship between the Allowable Value and the LSSS has been expanded upon as discussed in Section 2.2.6.(1) 2.2.4 The ISA/NEI/Various Industry Groups Position Concerning the LSSS and AV The following information is based on the ISA 67.04 Subcommittee handout from August 13, 2003.
Position Statements x The difference between the Allowable Value (AV) and the Analytical Limit (AL) is not a direct defense of the AL.
x The Trip Setpoint (TSP) protects the AL.
(1) There is a difference in the terminology and abbreviations used in TSTF-493, Rev. 4 versus RIS 2006-17 with respect to the Limiting Trip Setpoint and the Safety Limit.

Enclosure (7 of 8), Q&A to Attachment 1, Volume 8 (Section 3.3) Page 294 of 501 EE-0116 Page 11 of 205 Revision 6 Summary x Reg Guide 1.105 endorses the calculation of the TSP using statistical methods.
x The AV, based on a portion of the errors, does not invalidate the TSP.
x The AV validates an error contribution assumption via periodic surveillance testing.
x As long as the AV is not exceeded, the channel is OPERABLE.
x During Surveillance Testing, the AV serves as the LSSS.
x The errors between the AV and the AL are not part of the LSSS as defined by 10CFR50.36.
In summary, ISA/NEI/Various Industry Groups believe that the Allowable Value (AV) is equivalent to the Limiting Safety System Setting (LSSS). However, their position is that the TSP is used to protect the Analytical Limit (AL). All of the items listed above are true, with the exception of The TSP protects the AL. This is the statement that is under dispute.
Since August of 2003, the Industry has been developing Technical Specification Task Force Improved Standard Technical Specifications Change Traveler TSTF-493. This document addresses the agreement made between the USNRC and the industry concerning the issues listed above. Dominions implementation of the requirements set forth in TSTF-493, Revision 4 (Ref. 5.99) as they apply to Kewaunee Power Station will be addressed in Sections 2.2.6 and 3.5.

As part of the ITS conversion, Dominion has chosen to implement Option B of TSTF-493, Revision 4 (Ref. 5.99). TSTF-493, Revision 4, Option B allows for the relocation of Reactor Protection System RPS (also known as the Reactor Trip System RTS) and Engineered Safety Features Actuation System - ESFAS (also known as Engineered Safety Features - ESF) Allowable Values (also known as the Limiting Safety System Settings - LSSSs or Setting Limits) from Section 3.3 of Technical Specifications to a Licensee controlled program as defined in ITS Section 5.5.16. In addition, the Diesel Generator (LOOP), Containment Purge and Vent Isolation, and Control Room Post Accident Recirculation Actuation instrumentation will also be relocated to the Licensee controlled program as defined in ITS Section 5.5.16. To implement TSTF-493, Option B, Dominion will incorporate the relevant positions taken by the industry as detailed in TSTF-493, Revision 4 and those taken by the USNRC as detailed in NRC Regulatory Issue Summary 2006-17, Dated September 19, 2006 (Refs. 5.99 and 5.100) into the Setpoint Control Program in accordance with ITS Section 5.5.16.
New and/or revised terminology and requirements have been incorporated into TSTF-493 and NRC Regulatory Issue Summary (RIS) 2006-17 that are to be used for the determination of RPS and ESFAS Setpoints. The new terminology and requirements detailed in TSTF-493, Revision 4 and RIS 2006-17 will be incorporated into Kewaunees Setpoint Control Program as described in ITS Section 5.5.16. In addition to the new terminology and requirements, the USNRC has taken the position that the Limiting Trip Setpoint (LTSP) protects the Safety Limit (SL) (Ref. 5.100). This revised position is a change from the historical definition of the Allowable Value as delineated in Standardized Technical Specifications Enclosure (7 of 8), Q&A to Attachment 1, Volume 8 (Section 3.3) Page 295 of 501
Enclosure (7 of 8), Q&A to Attachment 1, Volume 8 (Section 3.3) Page 296 of 501 EE-0116 Page 13 of 205 Revision 6 (STS), i.e., "A setting chosen to prevent exceeding a Safety Analysis Limit" (Ref. 5.3). Since the Limiting Trip Setpoint (LTSP) accounts for all credible instrument errors associated with the instrument channel, it is a more conservative setting than the associated Allowable Value as defined in Section 3.5. With respect to Kewaunees conversion to ITS, Dominion agrees with this revised position based on explanations and guidance provided in TSTF-493, Revision 4 and RIS 2006-17.
Like North Anna and Surry, Kewaunees Setpoint Methodology is based on Methods 1 or 2 from ISA-RP67.04.02-2000 and ISA-RP67.04-Part II-1994. Using Methods 1 or 2 will ensure that the Allowable Value (equivalent to the Minimum or Maximum Allowable Value for Surry and North Anna) will account for all credible instrument and process errors that are not tested or quantified during the performance of the Channel Operational Test (COT). This Setpoint Methodology addresses the basic NRC concern brought up back in 2003 that Method 3 (used by some Licensees to determine Allowable Values) as described in ISA-RP67.04.02-2000 and ISA-RP67.04-Part II-1994 may yield Allowable Values that will not protect the Safety Limit under all postulated conditions. In addition to using Methods 1 or 2, Kewaunees Setpoint Methodology will incorporate the revised terminology and additional requirements imposed by TSTF-493, Revision 4 and RIS 2006-17. A detailed discussion of Kewaunees Setpoint Methodology incorporating the revised terminology and requirements from TSTF-493 and RIS 2006-17 is provided in Section 3.5.

In addition, Westinghouse has also performed the RPS (RTS) and ESFAS Setpoint Study for many of their plants. Typically, the Setpoint Study for these plants included the development of Channel Statistical Allowance (CSA) Calculations for Primary and some of the Backup RTS and ESFAS Trip Functions. Derived from these Setpoint Studies and CSA Calculations are the Allowable Values that appear in various versions of Standardized Technical Specifications (STS). For the Westinghouse Plants that use Custom Technical Specifications (CTS), the setpoint values specified for RPS and ESFAS Trip Functions are not defined as Allowable Values and typically, they are the same setpoint values as those found in the original Precautions, Limitations and Setpoints (PLS) Document for that particular plant. This was the case for Surrys Custom Technical Specifications until the implementation of Technical Specifications Change Request No. 318 ultimately resulting in TS Amendments 261/261 for Units 1 and 2, respectively (Ref. 5.119).
Dominion is unique in the fact that a majority of the UFSAR Chapter 14 (Surry and Kewaunee) and Chapter 15 (North Anna) Safety Analysis is performed in house by the Corporate Nuclear Analysis & Fuels Department. In addition, Channel Statistical Allowance Calculations for Primary and Backup RPS (RTS) and ESFAS Trip Functions are performed in house by the Corporate Electrical/I&C/Computers Department. Because Dominion performs their own Safety Analysis and CSA Calculations, the methodology used to determine Improved Technical Specifications (NUREG-1431 ITS) Allowable Values for North Anna, As Found Tolerances for Kewaunee, and LSSS/Setting Limits for Surry Custom Technical Specifications will be similar and in some cases more conservative than that used by Westinghouse in the past to determine Allowable Values for later versions of Standardized Technical Specifications. In addition, the methods used in this Technical Report to calculate the limiting values for North Anna, Kewaunee, and Surry will be consistent with the requirements of Methods 1 or 2 as described in ISA-RP67.04.02-2000 (Ref 5.43).
3.2 Functional Groups for RPS (RTS) and ESFAS Instrumentation.
Based on Dominion Technical Report NE-0994 (Ref. 5.1), the Reactor Protection System (RPS)/Reactor Trip System (RTS) and the Engineered Safety Features Actuation System (ESFAS) Instrumentation at North Anna, Kewaunee, and Surry can be divided into two major categories, i.e., Primary Trip Functions and Backup Trip Functions. Primary Trip Functions are credited in the Plant Safety Analysis and have an associated Analytical Limit (i.e., Safety Analysis Limit or Safety Limit). Backup Trip Functions are not credited in the Plant Safety Analysis but are included in the Reactor Protection System and the Engineered Safety Features Actuation System to enhance the overall effectiveness of the system.
Primary Trip Functions include the following:
x Primary Reactor Trip Functions x Primary Reactor Trip Permissives x Primary ESFAS Actuation Functions x Primary ESFAS Permissives Enclosure (7 of 8), Q&A to Attachment 1, Volume 8 (Section 3.3) Page 297 of 501
Enclosure (7 of 8), Q&A to Attachment 1, Volume 8 (Section 3.3) Page 298 of 501 EE-0116 Page 15 of 205 Revision 6 Backup Trip Functions include the following:
x Backup Reactor Trip Functions x Backup Reactor Trip Permissives x Backup ESFAS Permissives In addition to the above, there are three basic functional groups of Westinghouse Nuclear Instrumentation System (NIS), Foxboro H-Line, NUS Replacement Modules, Westinghouse/Hagan 7100, and Westinghouse 7300 Instrumentation that develop the majority of the RPS/RTS and ESFAS trips. These basic functional groups are divided into the three categories listed below:
- 1. Single parameter protection function
- 2. Dual parameter protection function
- 3. Multiple parameter protection function (i.e., more than two process parameters)
Different methods are used to calculate or validate the Allowable Values for North Anna, As Found Tolerances for Kewaunee, and LSSS/Setting Limits for Surry depending on whether the function is considered to be Primary or Backup. In addition, the functional group category will also effect how the Allowable Value, As Found Tolerance or LSSS/Setting Limit is calculated. Some examples of functional groups are given below.
Single Parameter Protection Functions x Power Range Neutron Flux High and Low Reactor Trips x Pressurizer High and Low Pressure Reactor Trips x Low Reactor Coolant Flow Reactor Trip x Containment Hi-1, Hi-2 and Hi-3 (North Anna only) Pressure ESFAS initiation x Compensated Low Steam Line Pressure ESFAS initiation x Steam Generator Lo-2 Level ESFAS initiation Dual Parameter Protection Functions x Surry High Steam Flow in 2/3 Lines ESFAS initiation x Surry High 'P Steam Line vs. Steam Header ESFAS initiation x North Anna High 'P Steam Line vs. Steam Line ESFAS initiation Multiple Parameter Protection Functions x Steam Flow Feed Flow Mismatch Reactor Trip x Overpower 'T Reactor Trip x Overtemperature 'T Reactor Trip Enclosure (7 of 8), Q&A to Attachment 1, Volume 8 (Section 3.3) Page 298 of 501

Most of the RTS and ESFAS trips generated from these systems are single parameter protection functions.

Surry The NSSS Protection and Control System at Surry uses the same Westinghouse Nuclear Instrumentation System (NIS) as North Anna. However, a majority of NSSS Protection and Control is developed from the Westinghouse/Hagan 7100 Series Process Control System (using NUS Replacement Modules for some functions). Like North Anna, most of the RPS and ESFAS trips generated from these systems are single parameter protection functions. For the Westinghouse NIS, Figure 3.2-1 is also applicable for Surry. Figure 3.2-3 illustrates the configuration of the Westinghouse/Hagan 7100 Process Control System for a single input protection function.

Note the difference between North Annas rack error terms compared with the rack error terms listed above for Surry. The error terms for the Loop Power Supply are not included in Surrys CSA Calculation because it is not used as a signal converter.
Kewaunee The NSSS Protection and Control System at Kewaunee uses the same Westinghouse Nuclear Instrumentation System (NIS) as does North Anna and Surry for Power Range. Most of the NSSS Protection and Control is developed from the Foxboro H-Line Process Control System (using NUS Replacement Modules for some functions). Like North Anna and Surry, most of the RPS and ESFAS trips generated from these systems are single parameter protection functions. For the Westinghouse Power Range NIS, Figure 3.2-1 is also applicable for Kewaunee.

Channel Statistical Allowance Calculations for dual parameter protection functions are different than single parameter functions. For example, there are more rack error terms associated with the development of the trip than a single parameter function. The rack error terms associated with North Annas High Steam Flow in 2/3 Lines ESFAS trip based on Calculation EE-0736 (Ref. 5.23) are given below :
(M1 + M1MTE) + (M13 + M13MTE) + (M14 + M14MTE) + (M15 + M15MTE) + RD + RTE Where: M1 = Steam Flow Loop Power Supply Accuracy = + 0.10 %

M15MTE = Module M15 Measuring and Test Equipment = + 0.042 %

The rack error terms described in the example above along with other error terms from the CSA Calculation will be used to validate the existing Allowable Values at North Anna or to calculate revised Allowable Values, if necessary. The configuration of dual parameter protection functions at Surry is similar to North Annas. The major differences between the rack error components for both plants are based on the process control equipment as illustrated above for single input protection functions.
Multiple Parameter Protection Functions Kewaunee There are three multiple parameter protection functions at North Anna and Kewaunee, and four multiple parameter functions at Surry. Figure 3.2-6 is a block diagram that illustrates Kewaunees Overtemperature 'T Reactor Trip configuration (note that Overpower 'T and Low TAVG are also shown on the drawing). The configuration of North Annas and Surrys Overtemperature 'T Reactor Trip is similar, noting that the process control equipment is different.
As can be seen from Figure 3.2-6, Kewaunees Overtemperature 'T Reactor Trip function is derived from five process parameters, they are :

x 'T Channel, made up of THOT and TCOLD x TAVG Channel, made up of THOT and TCOLD x Pressurizer Pressure Channel x Function of Delta Flux (F'I), made up of QU and QL Because there are five inputs to Kewaunees Overtemperature 'T function, the rack error components will be grouped as channel inputs versus a string of modules as shown above for the Dual Parameter Function example. This type of assessment will yield a conservative and valid Allowable Value (for Kewaunee, the Allowable Value will be the As Found Tolerance) using the four step method described in Sections 3.4 and 3.5 (Section 3.5 is Kewaunee specific). CSA Calculation C11865 (Ref. 5.94) was performed using a module calibration method, which for a multiple-parameter function will result in a very conservative CSA value. However, using a module calibration method for a complex, multiple-parameter function will result in an Allowable Value, LSSS/Setting Limit, or As Found Tolerance that Enclosure (7 of 8), Q&A to Attachment 1, Volume 8 (Section 3.3) Page 305 of 501

- 1. In the context of this document, the Analytical Limit (AL), Safety Limit (SL), and the Safety Analysis Limit (SAL) have the same meaning.
- 2. In the context of this document, Total Instrument Loop Uncertainty (TLU) and the Channel Statistical Allowance (CSA) have the same meaning.
- 3. COT means Channel Operational Test.
- 4. COT Instrument Uncertainties are made up of the portion of the loop that is tested during the COT.
For Surry, Kewaunee, and North Anna, these error components are:
x Rack or Module Calibration Accuracy (RCA or M1, M2 ... Mn) x Rack Comparator Setting Accuracy or Comparator Module Calibration Accuracy (RCSA or Mn) x Rack Drift (RD)
- 5. NON-COT Instrument Uncertainties are made up of the portion of the loop that is not tested during the COT. For Surry, Kewaunee, and North Anna, these error components may include:
x Systematic Error (SE) x Environmental Allowance (EA) x Process Measurement Accuracy (PMA) x Primary Element Accuracy (PEA) x Sensor Calibration Accuracy and Sensor Measuring and Test Equipment (SCA + SMTE) x Sensor Drift (SD) x Sensor Pressure Effect(s) (SPE) x Sensor Temperature Effect (STE) x Sensor Power Supply Effect (SPSE) x Rack Measuring and Test Equipment (RMTE or M1MTE, M2MTE ...

Enclosure (7 of 8), Q&A to Attachment 1, Volume 8 (Section 3.3) Page 308 of 501 EE-0116 Page 25 of 205 Revision 6 3.3.1 Method 1 Method 1 has been evaluated by the NRC Staff and was found to be an acceptable method to be used to calculate Allowable Values. Method 1 uses a TLU equal to 1.39 PSIG. The TLU was arrived at statistically using the Square Root Sum of the Squares (SRSS) method of combining channel error components. This is an accepted industry standard and is used here at Dominion Virginia Power. The channel error components used for the COT are equal to 1.10 PSIG and the error components used for the NON-COT are equal to 0.85. With a TLU equal to 1.39 PSIG and NON-COT errors equal 0.85 PSIG, then statistically, the COT error would be equal to 1.10 PSIG as shown below.
[(0.85)2 + (1.10)2] 1/2 = 1.39 or [(1.39)2 - (0.85)2] 1/2 = 1.10 If the COT error allowance were to be removed from the TLU, the statistical combination of the NON-COT error allowances would be equal to 0.85 PSIG. This means that the LSSS would have to be set such that the margin of 0.85 PSIG is maintained between the AV and the AL. To accomplish this using a COT error allowance of 1.10 PSIG, a determinant assessment must be used such that the COT allowance can only be equal to the TLU minus the NON-COT allowance, i.e., COT = 1.39 PSIG - 0.85 PSIG = 0.54 PSIG. In Method 1, the user decides that for the Channel Operational Test, the full COT allowance of 1.10 PSIG is to be retained. To maintain the full COT error allowance, the actual trip setpoint (ACT SP) is set below the calculated trip setpoint (CAL SP). Note that the difference between the CAL SP and the Allowable Value (AV) is 0.54 PSIG. The remainder of the desired COT allowance of 1.10 PSIG is obtained by lowering the ACT SP below the CAL SP by 0.56 PSIG to yield the ACT SP value of 4.05 PSIG. Method 1 ensures that the full NON-COT allowance of 0.85 PSIG is available under all conditions for the non-tested channel error components.
METHOD 1:
AL = 6.00 PSIG NON COT = 0.85 TLU = 1.39 AV = 5.15 PSIG COT = 1.10 CAL SP = 4.61 PSIG ACT SP = 4.05 PSIG LEGEND: TLU = TOTAL LOOP UNCERTAINTY AL = ANALYTICAL LIMIT (SAL) AV = ALLOWABLE VALUE NON COT = NON TESTED LOOP UNCERTAINTY COT = TESTED LOOP UNCERTAINTY CAL SP = CALCULATED SETPOINT ACT SP = ACTUAL SETPOINT Figure 3.3-1 Enclosure (7 of 8), Q&A to Attachment 1, Volume 8 (Section 3.3) Page 308 of 501
Enclosure (7 of 8), Q&A to Attachment 1, Volume 8 (Section 3.3) Page 309 of 501 EE-0116 Page 26 of 205 Revision 6 3.3.2 Method 2 Method 2 has been evaluated by the NRC Staff and was found to be an acceptable method to be used to calculate Allowable Values. Method 2 is essentially the same as Method 1 with the exception that the ACT SP is set equal to the CAL SP (i.e., 4.61 PSIG). This method does not allow for the full value of the COT error components as determined in the TLU (i.e., CSA Calculation). In some cases, this could cause the plant to find the AS FOUND Trip Setpoint outside of the AV more often than would be the case using Method 1. Like Method 1, Method 2 ensures that the statistical combination of the NON-COT error allowances (equal to 0.85 PSIG) is maintained between the AV and the AL under all conditions.
METHOD 2:
AL = 6.00 PSIG NON COT = 0.85 TLU = 1.39 AV = 5.15 PSIG COT = 0.54 CAL & ACT SP = 4.61 PSIG LEGEND: TLU = TOTAL LOOP UNCERTAINTY AL = ANALYTICAL LIMIT (SAL) AV = ALLOWABLE VALUE NON COT = NON TESTED LOOP UNCERTAINTY COT = TESTED LOOP UNCERTAINTY CAL SP = CALCULATED SETPOINT ACT SP = ACTUAL SETPOINT Figure 3.3-2 3.3.3 Method 3 Method 3 has been evaluated by the NRC Staff and was found to be an unacceptable method to be used to calculate Allowable Values. Method 3 has been used to calculate the Allowable Value in many Westinghouse Plants that used early versions of Standardized Technical Specifications (STS) as discussed above in Section 3.1. Using a determinant assessment, Method 3 does not ensure that the full NON-COT uncertainty allowance is maintained between the AV and the AL. To ensure that the NON-COT uncertainty allowance is maintained under all conditions, the AV must be set for < 5.15 PSIG. As can be seen from the illustration below, the AV using Method 3 is set for 5.71 PSIG, i.e., CAL SP/ACT SP + COT
= 5.71 PSIG. If the rack error components are allowed an offset of 1.10 PSIG before the channel is declared INOPERABLE, then the allowance for the NON-COT uncertainty is decreased to 0.29 PSIG. If the AS FOUND COT error was found to be (+) 1.05 PSIG and the AS FOUND NON-COT error was determined to be (+) 0.85 PSIG, then the channel trip function would have exceeded the Analytical Limit (i.e., SAL) and should be declared INOPERABLE. However, in accordance with Technical Specifications, the channel does not have to be declared INOPERABLE until the AS FOUND Trip Setpoint exceeds the Allowable Value. This is the concern that the NRC Staff has with Method 3. In the case of Method 3 using Enclosure (7 of 8), Q&A to Attachment 1, Volume 8 (Section 3.3) Page 309 of 501
Enclosure (7 of 8), Q&A to Attachment 1, Volume 8 (Section 3.3) Page 310 of 501 EE-0116 Page 27 of 205 Revision 6 a determinant assessment, the AV does not protect the AL and does not identify an inoperable channel under all operating conditions.
METHOD 3:
AL = 6.00 PSIG NON COT = 0.29 TLU = 1.39 AV = 5.71 PSIG COT = 1.10 CAL & ACT SP = 4.61 PSIG LEGEND: TLU = TOTAL LOOP UNCERTAINTY AL = ANALYTICAL LIMIT (SAL) AV = ALLOWABLE VALUE NON COT = NON TESTED LOOP UNCERTAINTY COT = TESTED LOOP UNCERTAINTY CAL SP = CALCULATED SETPOINT ACT SP = ACTUAL SETPOINT Figure 3.3-3 3.3.4 Method 3 with Additional Margin Method 3 using additional margin for the ACT SP has been evaluated by the NRC Staff and was found to be an unacceptable method to be used to calculate Allowable Values. Method 3 with additional margin is identical to Method 3 with the exception that the ACT SP is set below the CAL SP. In the case used for this illustration, the ACT SP is set for 4.00 PSIG which provides a margin of 0.61 PSIG to the CAL SP and 1.71 PSIG to the AV. This method actually yields less conservative results than Method 3 for two reasons. First, the AV is still set for 5.71 PSIG yielding a NON-COT allowance of 0.29 PSIG. As discussed above, using a determinant assessment, the NON-COT allowance of 0.29 PSIG does not fully account for the statistical combination of the non-tested loop error components.
Second, the calculated COT allowance was determined to be 1.10 PSIG. Allowing an error of 1.71 PSIG between the ACT SP and the AV is beyond the assumptions used to develop the TLU (i.e., CSA Calculation). Allowing an error of 1.71 PSIG for the Trip Setpoint before the channel is declared INOPERABLE is inconsistent with the applicable TLU assumptions and will not ensure that the rack components are operating within the assumptions of the CSA Calculation and/or the manufacturer specifications. Also note that the difference between the ACT SP and the AV is larger than the calculated TLU for the entire channel.

Kewaunee Power Station has chosen to implement TSTF-493, Revision 4, Option B as part of the conversion to Improved Technical Specifications. As stated above in Section 2.2.6, TSTF-493, Revision 4, Option B allows for the relocation of the Allowable Values associated with LCOs 3.3.1, 3.3.2, 3.3.5, 3.3.6, and 3.3.7 from Section 3.3 of Technical Specifications to a Licensee controlled program as defined in ITS Section 5.5.16. The Licensee controlled program is defined in ITS Section 5.5.16 as the Setpoint Control Program.
The Setpoint Control Program establishes the requirements for ensuring that setpoints for automatic protective devices are initially within and remain within the Technical Specification requirements. The Setpoint Control Program will govern the process for implementing changes to instrumentation setpoints and will describe the setpoint methodology used to ensure that setpoints are established in accordance with the requirements of Methods 1 or 2 from ISA-RP67.04.02-2000 and ISA-RP67.04-Part II-1994, TSTF-493, Revision 4, Option B, and RIS 2006-17. The automatic protective devices related to variables that perform a significant safety function at Kewaunee Power Station as delineated by 10 CFR 50.36(c)(1)(ii)(A) are described in detail in Sections 4.5, 4.6, and 4.7.
3.5.1 Primary RPS and ESFAS Trips, Permissives, and Other LCOs Credited in the Kewaunee Safety Analysis A four step process is used to determine the Allowable Value (AV), Limiting Trip Setpoint (LTSP),
Nominal Trip Setpoint (NTSP), and the As Found Tolerance (AFT) for Trip Functions, Permissives, and other LCOs at Kewaunee Power Station that are credited in the Safety Analysis. This four step process is based on the requirements of Methods 1 or 2 as described in ISA-RP67.04.02-2000 (Ref 5.43) and the revised terminology described in TSTF-493, Revision 4, and RIS 2006-17. In the order of operation, the four steps are described below and they are illustrated in Figure 3.5-1
- 1. Determine the Minimum (decreasing trip) or Maximum (increasing trip) Limiting Trip Setpoint (LTSP). The Maximum Limiting Trip Setpoint is arrived at by subtracting the Total Loop Uncertainty (TLU) from the Analytical Limit (AL) (also known as the Safety Analysis Limit). The Minimum Limiting Trip Setpoint is arrived at by adding the Total Loop Uncertainty (TLU) to the Analytical Limit (AL).
- 2. Determine the Minimum (decreasing trip) or Maximum (increasing trip) Allowable Value (AV).
This Maximum Allowable Value is arrived at by subtracting the statistical combination (i.e., Square Root of the Sum of the Squares SRRS) of the NON COT Loop Error Components (i.e., the loop error terms that are not tested or quantified during the Channel Operational Test COT) from the Analytical Limit (AL). The Minimum Allowable Value is arrived at by adding the statistical combination of the NON COT Loop Error Components to the Analytical Limit (AL).

- 3. Determine the Nominal Trip Setpoint (NTSP). After the LTSP is determined in step 1, the current Nominal Trip Setpoint for the function can be evaluated for acceptability. It may be desirable to move the current Nominal Trip Setpoint in a more conservative direction to obtain additional margin to the Analytical Limit and/or to allow for the full COT error allowance between the Nominal Trip Setpoint and the As Found Tolerance (AFT). Conversely, the current Nominal Trip Setpoint may be overly conservative resulting in reduced operating margin. If there is sufficient margin to the Analytical Limit, then it may be desirable to move the existing Nominal Trip Setpoint in the non-conservative direction to obtain additional operating margin. In all cases, the NTSP must be set equal to or, preferably, conservative with respect to the LTSP.
- 4. Determine the As Found Tolerance (AFT). Note that the As Found Tolerance for Kewaunee is equivalent to the Allowable Values/Limiting Safety System Settings/Setting Limits used for North Anna and Surry. After the AV is determined in step 2, the As Found Tolerance can be determined based on the NTSP. The AFT for an increasing trip function is arrived at by adding the statistical combination (i.e., Square Root of the Sum of the Squares SRRS) of the COT Loop Error Components (i.e., the loop error terms that are tested or quantified during the Channel Operational Test COT) to the Nominal Trip Setpoint (NTSP). The AFT for a decreasing trip function is arrived at by subtracting the statistical combination of the COT Loop Error Components from the Nominal Trip Setpoint. In all cases, the As Found Tolerance must be set equal to or, preferably, conservative with respect to the Allowable Value.

Backup RPS/ ESFAS and other LCOs Trip Functions do not have a documented Safety Limit; therefore, Limiting Trip Setpoints and Allowable Values do not need to be calculated. In some cases for Backup Trips, a TLU (i.e., CSA Calculation) may not be available to perform the process described below. In such a case, the process is subjective and should be based on the best available information. The two step process is described below.
- 1. Determine the Nominal Trip Setpoint (NTSP). The current Nominal Trip Setpoint for the function should be evaluated for acceptability. It may be desirable to move the current Nominal Trip Setpoint in a more conservative direction to obtain additional margin to ensure the function will support the associated Primary Trip, if applicable. Conversely, the current Nominal Trip Setpoint may be overly conservative resulting in reduced operating margin. If there is sufficient margin with respect to the associated Primary Trip Analytical Limit (if applicable), then it may be desirable to move the existing Nominal Trip Setpoint in the non-conservative direction to obtain additional operating margin.
- 2. Determine the As Found Tolerance (AFT). The AFT for an increasing trip function is arrived at by adding the statistical combination (i.e., Square Root of the Sum of the Squares SRRS) of the COT Loop Error Components (i.e., the loop error terms that are tested or quantified during the Channel Operational Test COT) to the Nominal Trip Setpoint (NTSP). The AFT for a decreasing trip function is arrived at by subtracting the statistical combination of the COT Loop Error Components from the Nominal Trip Setpoint (NTSP).

This function will be included in the Setpoint Control Program in accordance with ITS Table 3.3.2.1, item 5.b. Based on the requirements of ITS Section 5.5.16, this function will be evaluated based on the four step method described in Section 3.5.1 to ensure that it is bounded by the CSA Calculation of record and by the Safety Analysis assumptions documented in Technical Report NE-0994 (Ref. 5.1). The example given below will be adjusted to include the revised terminology and requirements specified in TSTF-493, Revision 4 and RIS 2006-17 to support the conversion to ITS and the implementation of the Kewaunee Setpoint Control Program.
Given Information:
Analytical Limit = 100.0 % Narrow Range Level (Ref. 5.1)
Current CTS Setting Limit = not specified Current Nominal Trip Setpoint = 66.5 % Narrow Range Level (Ref. 5.112)
Total Loop Uncertainty/Channel Statistical Allowance = (+) 3.967 to (+) 7.923 % Narrow Range Level (only the most positive value is used for the analysis) (Ref. 5.97)
Type of Trip = Increasing Trip, Normally Energized (Ref. 5.112)
Functional Group = Primary Trip, Single Parameter Protection Function (Refs. 5.1 and 5.112)
Step 1 - Determine the Limiting Trip Setpoint (LTSP)
The Limiting Trip Setpoint (LTSP) is equal to the Analytical Limit (AL) minus the Total Loop Uncertainty (TLU). Thus, the LTSP is equal to:
LTSP = 100.0 % - 7.923 %
LTSP = 92.077 % Narrow Range Level Step 2 - Determine the Allowable Value (AV)
The Allowable Value (AV) is equal to the Analytical Limit (AL) minus the NON-COT loop error components taken from the Total Loop Uncertainty (TLU) calculation. The NON-COT loop error components from Kewaunee CSA Calculation C11116 (Ref. 5.97) are detailed below:

+ 0.52] 1/2 NON COTerror = 7.514 % Narrow Range Level The Allowable Value (AV) for an increasing trip based on the requirements of Methods 1 or 2 as described in ISA-RP67.04.02-2000 (Ref. 5.43) is determined by subtracting the total NON-COT error from the Analytical Limit as shown below.
AV = 100.0 % - 7.514 %
AV = 92.486 % Narrow Range Level Step 3 - Determine the Nominal Trip Setpoint (NTSP)
As determined in Step 1, the Limiting Trip Setpoint is equal to 92.077 % Narrow Range Level. The current Nominal Trip Setpoint for this function at Kewaunee is 66.5 % Narrow Range Level. The Nominal Trip Setpoint is conservative with respect to the Limiting Trip Setpoint. The nominal operating band for Steam Generator Level at 100 % power is 44.0 % Level + 5.0 % Level (Refs. 5.134 and 5.135). Subtracting the worst case normal operating level of 49.0 % from the Nominal Trip Setpoint of 66.5 % yields an operating margin of 17.5 % level. This operating margin encompasses the entire Total Loop Uncertainty and should allow for stable operation. Therefore, the current Nominal Trip Setpoint of 66.5 % Narrow Range Level will be retained.

Enclosure (7 of 8), Q&A to Attachment 1, Volume 8 (Section 3.3) Page 327 of 501 EE-0116 Page 44 of 205 Revision 6 Step 4 - Determine the As Found Tolerance (AFT)
As determined in Step 2, the Allowable Value (AV) is equal to 92.486 % Narrow Range Level. The As Found Tolerance will be based on the COT error components taken from Calculation C11116 (Ref. 5.97) as shown below.
The As Found Tolerance is equal to the Nominal Trip Setpoint plus the COT loop error components taken from the Total Loop Uncertainty (TLU) calculation. The COT loop error components from CSA Calculation C11116 are detailed below:
Module 1 - Foxboro or NUS Loop Power Supply (M1) = + 0.00 % of span Module 3 - Foxboro or NUS Bistable Module (M3) = + 0.50 % of span Rack Drift (RD) = + 1.0 % of span Combining the COT loop error components using the Square Root of the Sum of the Squares (SRSS) method as described in Dominion Standard STD-EEN-0304 (Ref. 5.5), we have the following COT total error:
COTerror = + (M12 + M32 + RD2) 1/2 COTerror = + (0.02 + 0.52 + 1.02) 1/2 COTerror = + 1.12 % Narrow Range Level As described in Step 4 above, the As Found Tolerance (AFT) for an increasing trip is determined by adding the total COT error to the Nominal Trip Setpoint as shown below.
AFT = 66.5 % + 1.12 % = 67.62 % Narrow Range Level This As Found Tolerance of 67.62 % Narrow Range Level will be included in the Setpoint Control Program to support Kewaunees conversion to ITS, noting the Nominal Trip Setpoint is equal to 66.5 %
Narrow Range Level. The Nominal Trip Setpoint and the As Found Tolerance are both set below the Allowable Value of 92.486 % Narrow Range Level and the Limiting Trip Setpoint of 92.077 % Narrow Range Level.
As Found Tolerance (AFT) = 66.5 % Narrow Range Level + 1.12 % Narrow Range Level As Left Tolerance (ALT) = 66.5 % Narrow Range Level + 0.50 % Narrow Range Level(1)

The As Left Tolerances will be specified for Kewaunees RPS instrumentation, ESFAS instrumentation, and other instrumentation associated with LCOs 3.3.5, 3.3.6, and 3.3.7 in Sections 4.5, 4.6, and 4.7, respectively. In general, for single input parameters, the As Left Tolerance will be equal to the calibration accuracy of the module or the SRSS of calibration accuracies of the modules used to develop the trip function. For multiple input parameters, the As Left Tolerance will be developed as described in Sections 4.5, 4.6, and 4.7.

Subtracting the Total Loop Uncertainty (TLU) from the Analytical Limit (AL) yields a Limiting Trip Setpoint (LTSP) of 110.96 % Rated Thermal Power (RTP). Subtracting the NON COT error components from the Analytical Limit yields an Allowable Value (AV) of 111.19 % RTP. The Nominal Trip Setpoint (NTSP) of 105.0 % RTP is conservative with respect to the Limiting Trip Setpoint and the As Found Tolerance Value of < 106.5 % RTP is conservative with respect to the Allowable Value. The current Custom Technical Specification (CTS) LSSS value of < 109 % RTP will be changed to an As Found Tolerance value < 106.5 % RTP to conform to the requirements of TSTF-493, Rev. 4 and RIS 2006-17. The As Found Tolerance is based on a Nominal Trip Setpoint value of 105 % RTP. The Nominal Trip Setpoint value of 105 % RTP will allow a 1.5 % RTP margin to be used for the COT error components. The revised As Found Tolerance value of < 106.5 % RTP is conservative with respect to the calculated value of < 106.56 % RTP using the CSA rack error terms from Calculation C11705 (Ref 5.91).
The calculated As Found Tolerance value for this function is < 106.562 % RTP. The 0.062 % RTP offset will be subtracted from the calculated value to arrive at a value that can be determined on the indicator. The statistical combination of the COT and NON COT error components from CSA Calculation C11705 (Ref. 5.91) are given below. The COT and NON COT error components are used in Figure 4.5.1 to determine the Limiting Trip Setpoint (LTSP) and the Allowable Value (AV).

Subtracting the Total Loop Uncertainty (TLU) from the Analytical Limit (AL) yields a Limiting Trip Setpoint (LTSP) of 27.96 % Rated Thermal Power (RTP). Subtracting the NON COT error components from the Analytical Limit yields an Allowable Value (AV) of 28.19 % RTP. The Nominal Trip Setpoint (NTSP) of 24.5 % RTP is conservative with respect to the Limiting Trip Setpoint and the As Found Tolerance Value of < 26.062 % RTP (conservatively round to < 26.0) is conservative with respect to the Allowable Value. The current Custom Technical Specification (CTS) LSSS value of < 25 % RTP will be changed to an As Found Tolerance value of < 26 % RTP to conform to the requirements of TSTF-493, Rev. 4 and RIS 2006-17. The As Found Tolerance is based on a Nominal Trip Setpoint value of 24.5 % RTP. The Nominal Trip Setpoint value of 24.5 % RTP will allow a 1.5 % RTP margin to be used for the COT error components.

For Rate Lag g Derivative functions,, conservative settingsg are > the desired/required q time constant. The Power Range g Neutron Flux Positive Rate Reactor Tripp is developed p based on a combination of the dynamic y compensation p from the Rate Lagg Derivative Module (NM311) ( ) and the static trip p setpoint p

The currently installed settings versus the current LSSS settings will be compared below for both a step and a ramp.
Based on References 5.12,, 5.13,, 5.136, and 5.137, the equation to determine the output of a Rate Lag Derivative Module for a step input is:

The current Custom Technical Specification (CTS) LSSS value of < 40.0 % RTP is based on maintaining a Nominal Trip Setpoint value of 20.0 % RTP. The current Custom Technical Specification (CTS) LSSS value is non-conservative based on the COT error components of the Nuclear Instrumentation System. The Intermediate Range Neutron Flux High Reactor Trip function is not credited in the Kewaunee USAR Chapter 14 Safety Analysis (Ref. 5.1); therefore no Channel Statistical Allowance (CSA) Calculation has been performed for this function. The typical COT error allowance for this function is approximately 5.0 % RTP. For example, the COT error for this function at Surry is equal to + 5.678 % RTP, the COT error at North Anna is + 4.403 % RTP, and the typical Standardized Technical Specifications (STS) COT allowance is 5 % RTP (Refs. 5.3, 5.16, and 5.29). The As Found Tolerance will be < 25.0 % RTP. The As Found Tolerance of < 25.0 % RTP is based on maintaining a Nominal Trip Setpoint Value of 20.0 % RTP.
Note : This trip function is not credited in the USAR Chapter 14 Safety Analysis (Ref. 5.1). A CSA Calculation has not been performed for this function. Ref. 5.116 was used in the determination of the AFT and ALT below.

Further, the OT'T Reactor Trip will only be analyzed for the following condition:

x OT'T Reactor Trip with (+) F'I x OT'T Reactor Trip with (-) F'I Note: F'I is the Delta Flux Penalty generated from the Upper and Lower Power Range Neutron Flux Detectors (i.e., QU and QL).
Subtracting the Total Loop Uncertainty (TLU) from the Analytical Limit (AL) yields the following Limiting Trip Setpoints (LTSP) for the OT'T Reactor Trip with no F'I condition as described above:
x LTSP for OT'T Reactor Trip with no F'I = 130.0 % - 8.403 % = 121.597 % 'T Power Subtracting the NON COT error components from the Analytical Limit yields the following Allowable Value (AV) for the OT'T Reactor Trip with no F'I contribution as described above:
x AV for OT'T Reactor Trip with no F'I = 130.0 % - 5.883 % = 124.117 % 'T Power For the most limiting condition (i.e., OT'T Reactor Trip with no F'I) the Actual Nominal Trip Setpoint of 118.25 % 'T Power (e.g., based on TAVG = 572.0 oF) is conservative with respect to the Limiting Trip Setpoint of 121.597 % 'T Power. The As Found Tolerance Value of 121.25 % 'T Power is conservative with respect to the Allowable Value of 124.117 % 'T Power. This As Found Tolerance Value of < 121.25 % 'T Power is based on maintaining a Nominal Trip Setpoint value of 118.25 % 'T Power.

The statistical combination of the COT and NON COT error components from CSA Calculation C11865 (Ref. 5.94) with the appropriate modifications described in Section 3.2 for the OT'T Reactor Trip are given below. The COT and NON COT error components are used in Figure 4.5.7 to determine the Nominal Trip Setpoint (NTSP), Allowable Value (AV), As Found Tolerance (AFT), and As Left Tolerance (ALT) for the most limiting condition.

Adding the Total Loop Uncertainty (TLU) to the Analytical Limit (AL) yields a Limiting Trip Setpoint (LTSP) of 1858.82 PSIG. Adding the NON COT error components to the Analytical Limit yields an Allowable Value (AV) of 1855.94 PSIG. The Actual Nominal Trip Setpoint of 1904 PSIG is conservative with respect to the Limiting Trip Setpoint. The current Custom Technical Specification (CTS) LSSS value of > 1875 PSIG is conservative with respect to the Allowable Value. The current Custom Technical Specification (CTS) LSSS value of > 1875 PSIG is non-conservative based on the calculated COT error components determined in Calculation C10818 (Ref. 5.93). The LSSS value of >
1875 PSIG will be changed to an As Found Tolerance value of > 1894 PSIG to conform to the requirements of TSFT-493, Rev. 4 and RIS 2006-17. This As Found Tolerance is based on a Nominal Trip Setpoint value of 1904.0 PSIG. The Nominal Trip Setpoint value of 1904 PSIG will allow a 10.0 PSIG margin to be used for the COT error components. The As Found Tolerance value of > 1894 PSIG is sufficiently close enough to the calculated value using the CSA rack error terms from Calculation C10818 (Ref. 5.93).
The calculated As Found Tolerance for this function is > 1894.20 PSIG. The 0.20 PSIG offset is accommodated in the 45.18 PSIG Safety Margin for this trip as illustrated in Figure 4.5.9.

Subtracting the Total Loop Uncertainty (TLU) from the Analytical Limit (AL) yields a Limiting Trip Setpoint (LTSP) of 2387.64 PSIG. Subtracting the NON COT error components from the Analytical Limit yields an Allowable Value (AV) of 2389.78 PSIG. The Actual Nominal Trip Setpoint of 2377 PSIG is conservative with respect to the Limiting Trip Setpoint. The current Custom Technical Specification (CTS) LSSS value < 2385 PSIG is conservative with respect to the Allowable Value. The CTS LSSS value < 2385 PSIG will be revised to an As Found Tolerance Value of < 2386 PSIG based on the COT error components calculated below. The revised As Found Tolerance Value of < 2386 PSIG is also conservative with respect to the Allowable Value, however it is slightly non-conservative with respect to the calculated value using the CSA rack error components from Calculation C10818 (Ref 5.93). The calculated As Found Tolerance Value for this function is < 2385.94 PSIG. The 0.06 PSIG offset from the calculated value is accommodated within the Safety Margin for this function (i.e., 10.64 PSIG).

Allowable Value: As Found Tolerance = 93% Flow + 1.1% Flow (Refs. 5.1, 5.90, 5.96, 5.106, and 5.120)
Adding the Total Loop Uncertainty (TLU) to the Analytical Limit (AL) yields a Limiting Trip Setpoint (LTSP) of 90.52 % Flow. Adding the NON COT error components to the Analytical Limit yields an Allowable Value (AV) of 90.27 % Flow. The current Nominal Trip Setpoint of 93.0 % Flow is conservative with respect to the Limiting Trip Setpoint and the current Custom Technical Specification (CTS) LSSS value of > 90.0 % Flow is non conservative with respect to the Allowable Value. The CTS LSSS value > 90.0 % Flow will be changed to an As Found Tolerance value of > 91.9 % Flow based on the calculated value using the CSA rack error terms from Calculation C10819 (Ref 5.96). The As Found Tolerance of > 91.9 % Flow is conservative and conforms to the methodology described in TSFT-493, Rev. 4 and RIS 2006-17.
The calculated As Found Tolerance Value for this function is > 91.853 % Flow. The 0.047 % Flow offset will be negated resulting in a conservative As Found Tolerance value of > 91.9 % Flow for this trip as illustrated in Figure 4.5.11.
The statistical combination of the COT and NON COT error components from CSA Calculation C10819 (Ref. 5.96) are given below. The COT and NON COT error components are used in Figure 4.5.11 to determine the Limiting Trip Setpoint (LTSP) and the Allowable Value (AV).

The current Custom Technical Specification (CTS) LSSS for this function is > 75 % of normal voltage.
The current Nominal Trip Setpoint for this function is 91 to 93 VAC where 92 VAC is the centerline voltage = 76.667 % of voltage span (Ref. 5.127). This analysis assumes that 120 VAC from the potential transformer is equal to 100 % of bus voltage/normal voltage which is equal to 4160 VAC. The Reactor Coolant Pump Undervoltage Trip function is not credited in the Kewaunee USAR Chapter 14 Safety Analysis (Ref. 5.1); however a Channel Statistical Allowance (CSA) Calculation has been performed for this function. The calibration accuracy for this trip function is 92 + 1.0 VAC = 76.667 + 0.833 % of normal voltage (Ref. 5.127). The COT error from Calculation C11891 is + 1.06 VAC = + 0.885 % of normal voltage. Therefore, the As Found Tolerance for the Reactor Coolant Pump Undervoltage Trip is 76.667 + 0.885 % of normal voltage = 92 + 1.06 VAC based on device calibration accuracy and drift from Reference 5.128. The As Left Tolerance for the Reactor Coolant Pump Undervoltage Trip is 76.667 + 0.833 % of normal voltage = 92 + 1.0 VAC based on the device calibration accuracy from Reference 5.127. The As Found and As Left Tolerances are based on maintaining a Nominal Trip Setpoint Value 92 VAC = 76.667 % of normal voltage.

The current Custom Technical Specification (CTS) LSSS for this function is > 55.0 Hz. The current Nominal Trip Setpoint for this function is 57 + 0.1 Hz (Ref. 5.127). The Reactor Coolant Pump Underfrequency Trip function is not credited in the Kewaunee USAR Chapter 14 Safety Analysis (Ref.
5.1); however a Channel Statistical Allowance (CSA) Calculation has been performed for this function.
Based on Calculation C11890 (Ref. 5.126), the COT error allowance for this function is + 0.3 Hz. The calibration accuracy for this trip function is + 0.1 Hz (Ref. 5.127). The As Found Tolerance of 57 + 0.3 Hz is based on the COT error from Calculation C11890 and the As Left Tolerance of 57 + 0.1 Hz is conservatively based on device calibration accuracy from Reference 5.127. The As Found and As Left Tolerances are based on maintaining a Nominal Trip Setpoint Value of 57 Hz.

The current Custom Technical Specification (CTS) LSSS for this function is < 90.0 % Level. The current Nominal Trip Setpoint for this function is 85.0 % Level (Ref. 5.109). The Pressurizer High Level Reactor Trip function is not credited in the Kewaunee USAR Chapter 14 Safety Analysis (Ref.

Based on Calculation C10982 (Ref. 5.92), the COT error allowance for this function is + 1.118 % of span = + 1.118 % Level. The calibration accuracy for this trip function is + 0.5 % of span = + 0.5 %

Note: The Analytical Limit for this function is 0.0 % NR Level (Ref. 5.1). The Channel Statistical Allowance (CSA) for this function has a large negative Process Measurement Accuracy (PMA) bias term which results in a negative CSA value. For conservatism, the absolute value of the larger CSA value from Reference 5.97 will be used in this analysis.
Adding the Total Loop Uncertainty (TLU) to the Analytical Limit (AL) yields a Limiting Trip Setpoint (LTSP) of 4.496 % NR Level. Adding the NON COT error components to the Analytical Limit yields an Allowable Value (AV) of 4.087 % NR Level. The Actual Nominal Trip Setpoint of 17.0 % NR Level (Ref. 5.112) is conservative with respect to the Limiting Trip Setpoint and the current Custom Technical Specification (CTS) LSSS value of > 5.0 % NR Level is conservative with respect to the Allowable Value. The CTS LSSS value of > 5.0 % NR Level is non-conservative based on the calculated COT error components determined in Calculation C11116 (Ref. 5.97). The CTS LSSS value of > 5.0 % NR Level will be changed to an As Found Tolerance value of > 15.88 % NR Level to conform to the requirements of TSFT-493, Rev. 4 and RIS 2006-17. The As Found Tolerance Value of
> 15.88 % NR Level is based on maintaining a Nominal Trip Setpoint value of 17.0 % NR Level.
The statistical combination of the COT and NON COT error components from CSA Calculation C11116 (Ref. 5.97) are given below. The COT and NON COT error components are used in Figure 4.5.15 to determine the Limiting Trip Setpoint (LTSP) and the Allowable Value (AV).

The current Custom Technical Specification (CTS) LSSS for this function is > 10-5% Rated Power. The current Nominal Trip Setpoint for this function is set equal to the CTS LSSS value, i.e., 1
- 10-5% Rated Power. Permissive P-6 is not credited in the Kewaunee USAR Chapter 14 Safety Analysis (Ref. 5.1) and a Channel Statistical Allowance (CSA) calculation has not been performed for this function.

Permissive P-7 is not credited in the Kewaunee USAR Chapter 14 Safety Analysis (Ref. 5.1); however, a Channel Statistical Allowance (CSA) Calculation has been performed for Permissive P-10. Permissive P-7 is made up of input signals from Turbine First Stage Pressure (P-13) and NIS Power Range (P-10). Signals to the P-7 and P-10 permissives are supplied from the same bistables in the NIS Power Range drawers. P-7 and P-10 will both enable and block functions from the trip and reset points of these bistables.

The current Custom Technical Specification (CTS) LSSS for Permissive P-8 is < 10.0 % of Rated Power. The Nominal Trip Setpoint for the unblock portion of Permissive P-8 is 9.5 % RTP (Ref. 5.104).
Permissive P-8 is not credited in the Kewaunee USAR Chapter 14 Safety Analysis (Ref. 5.1) and a Channel Statistical Allowance (CSA) Calculation has not been performed for this function. However, CSA Calculation C11705 (Ref. 5.91) has identified the COT error components associated with Permissive P-10 which uses identical circuitry to that of Permissive P-8 to generate their respective functions. The COT error associated with Permissive P-10, taken from Calculation C11705 (Ref. 5.91),
is + 1.085 % of span = + 1.3 % RTP(1). This COT error is also applicable for Permissive P-8 and will be used to develop the As Found Tolerance. Based on a Nominal Trip Setpoint of 9.5 % RTP and a COT error of + 1.3 % RTP, the As Found Tolerance for Permissive P-8 is 9.5 + 1.3 % RTP. Note that the high end of the As Found Tolerance (i.e., 9.5 % RTP + 1.3 % RTP = 10.8 % RTP) is non-conservative with respect to the current CTS LSSS of < 10 % RTP, however this As Found tolerance is acceptable because there is no specific Analytical Limit associated with this permissive. The As Left Tolerance will be equal to the COT error minus Rack Drift (RD)(2). The As Found and As Left Tolerance are based on maintaining a Nominal Trip Setpoint of 9.5 % RTP.
As Found Tolerance (AFT) = 9.5 % RTP + 1.3 % RTP(1)
As Left Tolerance (ALT) = 9.5 % RTP + 0.5 % RTP(2)
(1) AFT = + (M12 + M52 + RD2) 1/2 = + (0.052 + 0.4172 + 1.02) 1/2 = + 1.085 % of span = + 1.3 % RTP.

The current Custom Technical Specification (CTS) LSSS for Permissive P-10 (i.e., unblock the low power trips) is > 7.8 % of Rated Power. The calibration procedure (Ref. 5.104) for the NIS Power Range P-10 unblock of the low power trips sets the Nominal Trip Setpoint at 9.0 % RTP (decreasing).
Permissive P-10 is not credited in the Kewaunee USAR Chapter 14 Safety Analysis (Ref. 5.1); however, a Channel Statistical Allowance (CSA) Calculation has been performed for this function. Based on Reference 5.91, the COT error associated with P-10 is + 1.085 % of span = + 1.3 % RTP(1). This COT error will be used to develop the As Found Tolerance for this function. Based on a Nominal Trip Setpoint of 9.0 % RTP and a COT error of + 1.3 % RTP, the As Found Tolerance for Permissive P-10 is 9.0 + 1.3 % RTP. Note that the low end of the As Found Tolerance (i.e., 9.0 % RTP - 1.3 % RTP = 7.7
% RTP) is non-conservative with respect to the current CTS LSSS of > 7.8 % RTP, however this As Found tolerance is acceptable because there is no specific Analytical Limit associated with this permissive. The As Left Tolerance will be equal to the COT error minus Rack Drift (RD)(2). The As Found and As Left Tolerance are based on maintaining a Nominal Trip Setpoint of 9.0 % RTP.

Subtracting the Total Loop Uncertainty (TLU) from the Analytical Limit (AL) yields a Limiting Trip Setpoint (LTSP) of 4.237 PSIG. Subtracting the NON COT error components from the Analytical Limit yields an Allowable Value (AV) of 4.328 PSIG. The current CTS Setting Limit for this function is < 4.0 PSIG. The CTS Setting Limit for this function of < 4.0 PSIG is conservative with respect to the Allowable Value, however it is non-conservative with respect to the calculated As Found Tolerance value of 3.6 PSIG + 0.335 PSIG (i.e., 3.935 PSIG) . The Actual Nominal Trip Setpoint of 3.6 PSIG is conservative with respect to the Limiting Trip Setpoint. The CTS Setting Limit of < 4.0 PSIG will be changed to an As Found Tolerance value of 3.6 PSIG + 0.335 PSIG to conform to the requirements of TSFT-493, Rev. 4 and RIS 2006-17.

Adding the Total Loop Uncertainty (TLU) to the Analytical Limit (AL) yields a Limiting Trip Setpoint (LTSP) of 1755.62 PSIG. Adding the NON COT error components to the Analytical Limit yields an Allowable Value (AV) of 1754.94 PSIG. The Actual Nominal Trip Setpoint of 1830 PSIG is conservative with respect to the Limiting Trip Setpoint. The current Custom Technical Specification (CTS) Setting Limit value of > 1815 PSIG is conservative with respect to the Allowable Value. The current Custom Technical Specification (CTS) LSSS value > 1815 PSIG is non-conservative based on the calculated COT error components determined in Calculation C10818 (Ref. 5.93). The Setting Limit value of > 1815 PSIG will be changed to an As Found Tolerance value of 1830 PSIG + 10.0 PSIG to conform to the requirements of TSFT-493, Rev. 4 and RIS 2006-17. The revised As Found Tolerance value of > 1820 PSIG will allow a 10.00 PSIG margin to be used for the COT error components. The revised As Found Tolerance value of > 1820 PSIG is conservative with respect to the calculated Allowable Value but is non-conservative with respect to the calculated As Found Tolerance value using the CSA rack error terms from Calculation C10818 (Ref. 5.93).
The calculated As Found Tolerance value for this function is > 1821.06 PSIG based on using the COT error components. The 1.06 PSIG offset is accommodated in the 74.38 PSIG Safety Margin for this trip as illustrated in Figure 4.6.5.

The current Custom Technical Specification (CTS) Setting Limit for this function is > 540.0 oF. The current Nominal Trip Setpoint for this function is > 541.0 oF (Ref. 5.105). The Low TAVG Coincidence input to the Steam Line Isolation ESFAS function is not credited in the Kewaunee USAR Chapter 14 Safety Analysis (Ref. 5.1); however a Channel Statistical Allowance (CSA) Calculation has been performed for this function. Based on Calculation C11865 (Ref. 5.94), the COT error allowance for this function is + 1.38 % of span = + 1.38 oF. The As Found Tolerance based on the COT error from Calculation C11865 is 541 oF + 1.38 oF. The CTS Setting Limit for this function of > 540.0 oF is set slightly conservative with respect to the calculated As Found Tolerance value of 541 oF + 1.38 oF (i.e.
539.62 oF). The As Found Tolerance being slightly non-conservative with respect to the current CTS Setting Limit is acceptable because there is no Analytical Limit associated with this function. The As Left Tolerance will be based on the COT error allowance minus Rack Drift (i.e., RD2 from Ref. 5.94).
The As Found and As Left Tolerances are based on maintaining a Nominal Trip Setpoint Value of 541 o

Adding the Total Loop Uncertainty (TLU) to the Analytical Limit (AL) yields a Limiting Trip Setpoint (LTSP) of 511.066 PSIG. Adding the NON COT error components to the Analytical Limit yields an Allowable Value (AV) of 504.01 PSIG. The Actual Nominal Trip Setpoint of 514.0 PSIG is conservative with respect to the Limiting Trip Setpoint. The current Custom Technical Specifications (CTS) Setting Limit of > 500 PSIG is non-conservative with respect to the calculated Allowable Value and is conservative with respect to the calculated As Found Tolerance. The As Found Tolerance of 514 PSIG + 17.15 PSIG is based on the calculated COT error allowance from Calculation C10854 (Ref.

As Found Tolerance: 84.47 + 0.200 % of Bus Voltage = 101.69 + 0.241 VAC with a time delay of 1.75 seconds + 0.25 seconds (Refs. 5.1, 5.90, 5.102, & 5.129)
The current Custom Technical Specification (CTS) Setting Limit for this function is 85 % + 2 % of bus voltage in < 2.5 secs. The current Nominal Trip Setpoint for this function is 101.49 to 101.89 VAC where 101.69 VAC is the centerline voltage = 84.47 % of bus voltage(1) (Ref. 5.102 & 5.129). This analysis assumes that 120.39 VAC from the potential transformer is equal to 100 % of bus voltage which is equal to 4160 VAC per the conversion factor as noted in footnote 1. The Safeguards Bus Undervoltage Loss of Power Trip is not credited in the Kewaunee USAR Chapter 14 Safety Analysis (Ref. 5.1); however a Channel Statistical Allowance (CSA) calculation has been performed for this function. The calibration accuracy for this trip is 101.69 + 0.2 VAC = 84.47 + 0.166 % of bus voltage (1)
(Ref. 5.129). The COT error from Calculation C11709 is + 0.200 % of bus voltage = + 0.241 VAC.
Therefore, the As Found Tolerance for the Safeguards Bus Undervoltage Loss of Power Trip is 84.47 +
0.200 % of bus voltage = 101.69 + 0.241 VAC(1) based on the device calibration accuracy from Reference 5.102. The As Left Tolerance for the Safeguards Bus Undervoltage Loss of Power Trip is 84.47 + 0.166 % of bus voltage = 101.69 + 0.200 VAC based on the device calibration accuracy from Reference 5.129. The As Found Tolerance and As Left Tolerance are based on maintaining a Nominal Trip Setpoint Value of 101.69 VAC = 84.47 % of bus voltage.
The time delay associated with this trip is based on a setpoint of 1.75 seconds + 0.01 seconds (Ref.
5.129). Calculation C11709 (Ref. 5.102) gives a total error associated with the relays as 14.14 % of the settings. Utilizing the total error of 14.14 % of the setting provides a range of 1.50 seconds to 2.00 seconds based on a setpoint of 1.75 seconds. Therefore, the Time Delay As Found Tolerance is 1.75 seconds + 0.25 seconds. The Time Delay As Left Tolerance is 1.75 + 0.10(5) second based on the device calibration accuracy from Reference 5.129.
As Found Tolerance (AFT) = 84.47 + 0.200 % of bus voltage = 101.69 + 0.241 VAC(2)
As Left Tolerance (ALT) = 84.47 + 0.166 % of bus voltage = 101.69 + 0.200 VAC(3)
Time Delay As Found Tolerance = 1.75 Seconds + 0.25 seconds Time Delay As Left Tolerance = 1.75 Seconds + 0.10 seconds(5)
As Found Tolerance (AFT) = 84.15 + 0.200 % of bus voltage = 101.31 + 0.241 VAC(4)
As Left Tolerance (ALT) = 84.15 + 0.166 % of bus voltage = 101.31 + 0.200 VAC(4)
(1) Convert % bus Voltage to VAC as follows:
4160*(% bus Volts / 100) / (sqrt (3)
- 20
- 0.9975) = VAC Where 20 is the PT turn down ratio and 0.9775 is the Ratio Correction Factor (Ref. 5.102).
(2) AFT = + SCA = + 0.200 % bus voltage (From Reference 5.102).
(3) ALT = Current Calibration Accuracy from Reference 5.129 = + 0.166 % bus voltage.
(4) Calculation C11709 (Ref. 5.102) recommends a setpoint change for the Safeguards Bus Undervoltage Loss of Voltage Trip. The recommended setpoint will be 101.31 + 0.200 VAC = 84.15 + 0.166 % of bus voltage for the relay Dropout.

Therefore, the As Found Tolerance for the Safeguards Bus Undervoltage Loss of Power Trip is 84.15 + 0.200 % of bus voltage = 101.31 + 0.241 VAC based on the device calibration accuracy from Reference 5.102. The As Left Tolerance for the Safeguards Bus Undervoltage Loss of Power Trip is 84.15 + 0.166 % of bus voltage = 101.31 + 0.200 VAC based on the recommendation from Reference 5.102. The As Found Tolerance and As Left Tolerance are based on implementing the recommendations of Calculation C11709 and setting the Nominal Trip Setpoint to a value of 101.31 VAC = 84.15 % of bus voltage. The same Time Delay Tolerances apply for the new setpoints.
(5) Undervoltage relays 27A/B5, 27C/B5, 26A/B6, 27C/B6 have an As Left time delay of 0.01 seconds listed in the Electrical Preventive Maintenance Procedures with an As Found time delay of 0.1 seconds. The procedure value of 0.01 seconds is conservative to the As Left Tolerance of 0.1 seconds as described above.
4.7.2 Safeguards Bus Second Level Undervoltage (Degraded Voltage)
As Found Tolerance: 93.80 + 0.179 % of bus voltage = 112.93 + 0.215 VAC with a time delay of 6.72 seconds + 0.68 seconds (Refs. 5.1, 5.90, 5.102, & 5.129)
The current Custom Technical Specification (CTS) Setting Limit for this function is 93.6 % + 0.9 % of bus voltage in < 7.4 secs. The current Nominal Trip Setpoint for this function is 112.73 to 113.13 VAC where 112.93 VAC is the centerline voltage = 93.80 % of bus voltage(1) (Ref. 5.102 & 5.129). This analysis assumes that 120.39 VAC from the potential transformer is equal to 100 % of bus voltage which is equal to 4160 VAC per the conversion factor as noted in footnote 1. The Safeguards Bus Second Level Undervoltage Degraded Voltage Trip is not credited in the Kewaunee USAR Chapter 14 Safety Analysis (Ref. 5.1); however a Channel Statistical Allowance (CSA) calculation has been performed for this function. The calibration accuracy for this trip is 112.93 + 0.2 VAC = 93.80 + 0.166
% of bus voltage (1) (Ref. 5.129). The COT error from Calculation C11709 is + 0.179 % of bus voltage =
+ 0.215 VAC. Therefore, the As Found Tolerance for the Safeguards Bus Second Level Undervoltage Degraded Voltage Trip is 93.80 + 0.179 % of bus voltage = 112.93 + 0.215 VAC based on the device calibration accuracy from Reference 5.102. The As Left Tolerance for the Safeguards Bus Second Level Undervoltage Degraded Voltage Trip is 93.80 + 0.166 % of bus voltage = 112.93 + 0.200 VAC based on the device calibration accuracy from Reference 5.129. The As Found Tolerance and As Left Tolerance are based on maintaining a Nominal Trip Setpoint Value of 112.93 VAC = 93.80 % of bus voltage.
The time delay associated with this trip is based on a setpoint of 6.72 seconds + 0.01 seconds (Ref.
5.129). Calculation C11709 (Ref. 5.102) gives a total error associated with the relays as 10.1 % of the settings. Utilizing the total error of 10.1 % of the setting provides a range of 6.04 seconds to 7.40 seconds based on a setpoint of 6.72 seconds. Therefore, the Time Delay As Found Tolerance is 6.72 seconds + 0.68 seconds. The Time Delay As Left Tolerance is 6.72 + 0.10(5) second based on the device calibration accuracy from Reference 5.129.
As Found Tolerance (AFT) = 93.80 + 0.179 % of bus voltage = 112.93 + 0.215 VAC(2)
As Left Tolerance (ALT) = 93.80 + 0.166 % of bus voltage = 112.93 + 0.200 VAC (3)

(2) AFT = + SCA = + 0.179 % bus voltage (From Reference 5.102).
(3) ALT = Current Calibration Accuracy from Reference 5.129 = + 0.166 % bus voltage.
(4) Calculation C11709 (Ref. 5.102) recommends a setpoint change for the Safeguards Bus Undervoltage Degraded Voltage Trip. The recommended setpoint will be 112.57 + 0.200 VAC = 93.50 + 0.166 % of bus voltage for the relay Dropout.
The COT error from Calculation C11709 is + 0.179 % of bus voltage = + 0.215 VAC. Therefore, the As Found Tolerance for the Safeguards Bus Undervoltage Degraded Voltage Trip is 93.50 + 0.179 % of bus voltage = 112.57 +
0.215 VAC based on the device calibration accuracy from Reference 5.102. The As Left Tolerance for the Safeguards Bus Undervoltage Degraded Voltage Trip is 93.50 + 0.166 % of bus voltage = 112.57 + 0.200 VAC based on the recommendation from Reference 5.102. The As Found Tolerance and As Left Tolerance are based on implementing the recommendations of Calculation C11709 and setting the Nominal Trip Setpoint to a value of 112.57 VAC = 93.50 % of bus voltage. The same Time Delay Tolerances apply for the new setpoints.
(5) Undervoltage (Degraded Voltage) relays 27AY/B5, 27CY/B5, 26AY/B6, 27CY/B6 have an As Left time delay of 0.01 seconds listed in the Electrical Preventive Maintenance Procedures with an As Found time delay of 0.1 seconds. The procedure value of 0.01 seconds is conservative to the As Left Tolerance of 0.1 seconds as described above.
4.7.3 Forebay Level As Found Tolerance: 162 H2O + 9 H2O (Refs. 5.1, 5.90, 5.101 & 5.121)
The current Custom Technical Specifications (CTS) do not list a Setting Limit value associated with the Forebay Level Trip. The Forebay Level Trip function is not credited in the Kewaunee USAR Chapter 14 Safety Analysis (Ref. 5.1). The current As Found Nominal Trip Setpoint for this function is 162 Inches H2O Decreasing + 9.0 Inches H2O per Reference 5.121. The current As Left Nominal Trip Setpoint is 162 Inches H2O Decreasing + 4.5 Inches H2O per Reference 5.121. Per Calculation C11220 (Ref.
5.101) testing concluded that at a water level of 565 3, acceptable conditions exist for continued operation of the SW pumps. The setpoint of 162 H2O is equivalent to 566 Forebay water level per Reference 5.101, which yields a difference of 9 H2O to be used for the As Found Tolerance.
As Found Tolerance (AFT) = 162 H2O + 9 H2O(1)
As Left Tolerance (ALT) = 162 H2O + 4.5 H2O(2)

The current Nominal Trip p Setpoint p (4) for the Containment Gas Radiation Monitors are 8.00 E +04 CPM for the High g Alarm Setpoint p pper References 5.123 and 5.143. The Containment Gas Radiation monitors are not credited in the Chapter 14 Safety Analysis (Ref. 5.1). The Alert and Alarm setpoints are determined IAW the methodology outlined in the Kewaunee Power Station Offsite Dose Calculation Manual (ODCM) and documented in Calculation C10690 (Ref. 5.115). The High Alarm Setpoint provides the Containment Isolation signal. The calculated High Alarm Setpoint per the ODCM and Calculation C10690 (Refs. 5.113 & 5.115) is currently 2.2 E +05 CPM + Background (BKG). The Setpoints listed in Reference 5.123 are set conservative to the values determined in the ODCM and Calculation C10690 (Refs. 5.113 & 5.115).
There are currently no Analytical Limits or Allowable Values associated with this function (Ref. 5.1).
The determination of the setpoints is not within the scope of the Setpoint Control Program and the current High Alarm Nominal Trip Setting of 8.00E +04 CPM is conservative with respect to the calculated value listed in the ODCM and Calculation C10690. Based on Reference 5.113 & 5.115 the As Found Tolerance will be 2.2 E +05 CPM + Background. The As Left Tolerance will be based on the existing High Alarm Setpoint listed in Reference 5.123.

Response
3/3/2010 7:45 AM Date/Time Closure Statement Response Kewaunee Power Station was attempting to be consistent with the ISTS Statement terminology when the R-21 monitor was called an Iodine monitor. The R-21 skid has a cartridge to sample iodine. However, the actual trip comes from the R-21 monitor itself, which is a gaseous monitor. Therefore, the submittal will be modified to state in ITS Table 3.3.6-1 that there are 2 gaseous monitor channels, and not include any iodine channels. That is, Function 2.c will be deleted and Function 2.a will specify 2 channels in lieu of 1 channel. A draft markup regarding these changes is attached. These changes will be reflected in the supplement to this section of the ITS conversion amendment.

This action isolates the containment atmosphere from the Containment environment to minimize releases of radioactivity in the event of an Air Cooling accident. The Mini Purge System may be in use during reactor operation and the Shutdown Purge System will be in use with the reactor shutdown.
Containment Purge vent and Vent n Containment purge and exhaust isolation initiates on a automatic safety 2 INSERT 1 injection (SI) signal through the Containment Isolation - Phase A Function, or by manual actuation of Phase A Isolation. The Bases for LCO 3.3.2, "Engineered Safety Feature Actuation System (ESFAS)
Instrumentation," discuss these modes of initiation.
Three vent Four radiation monitoring channels are also provided as input to the three containment purge and exhaust isolation. The four channels measure INSERT 2 containment radiation at two locations. One channel is a containment area gamma monitor, and the other three measure radiation in a sample of the containment purge exhaust. The three purge exhaust radiation detectors are of three different types: gaseous, particulate, and iodine monitors. All four detectors will respond to most events that release radiation to containment. However, analyses have not been conducted to demonstrate that all credible events will be detected by more than one three monitor. Therefore, for the purposes of this LCO the four channels are not considered redundant. Instead, they are treated as four one-out-of-one Functions. Since the purge exhaust monitors constitute a sampling system, various components such as sample line valves, sample line radiation heaters, sample pumps, and filter motors are required to support monitor OPERABILITY.
Each of the purge systems has inner and outer containment isolation valves in its supply and exhaust ducts. A high radiation signal from any three valves one of the four channels initiates containment purge isolation, which closes both inner and outer containment isolation valves in the Mini Purge Containment Purge System and the Shutdown Purge System. These systems are described and Vent in the Bases for LCO 3.6.3, "Containment Isolation Valves." and the 2 inch containment vent isolation valves APPLICABLE The safety analyses assume that the containment remains intact with SAFETY penetrations unnecessary for core cooling isolated early in the event, ANALYSES within approximately 60 seconds.

Automatic Actuation Logic and Actuation Relays consist of the same features and operate in the same manner as described for ESFAS Function 1.b, SI, and ESFAS Function 3.a, Containment Phase A Isolation. The applicable MODES and specified conditions for the and vent containment purge isolation portion of these Functions are different and less restrictive than those for their Phase A isolation and SI Containment roles. If one or more of the SI or Phase A isolation Functions and Vent becomes inoperable in such a manner that only the Containment Containment Purge Isolation Function is affected, the Conditions applicable to their SI and Phase A isolation Functions need not be entered. The less and Vent restrictive Actions specified for inoperability of the Containment Purge Isolation Functions specify sufficient compensatory measures for this case.

and Vent For sampling systems, channel OPERABILITY involves more than will OPERABILITY of the channel electronics. OPERABILITY may also require correct valve lineups, sample pump operation, and filter motor operation, as well as detector OPERABILITY, if these supporting since features are necessary for trip to occur under the conditions assumed by the safety analyses.

APPLICABILITY The Manual Initiation, Automatic Actuation Logic and Actuation Relays, Containment Isolation - Phase A, and Containment Radiation Functions are required OPERABLE in MODES 1, 2, 3, and 4, and during movement of [recently] irradiated fuel assemblies [(i.e., fuel that has occupied part of 4
a critical reactor core within the previous [X] days)] within containment.
Under these conditions, the potential exists for an accident that could release significant fission product radioactivity into containment.
Therefore, the containment purge and exhaust isolation instrumentation must be OPERABLE in these MODES. vent WOG STS B 3.3.6-3 Rev. 3.0, 03/31/04 Enclosure (7 of 8), Q&A to Attachment 1, Volume 8 (Section 3.3) Page 498 of 501

However, since the 36 inch containment purge exhaust line is isolated and sealed in MODES 1, 2, 3, and 4, for the activity monitor R-21 to be OPERABLE, it must be aligned to the containment atmosphere via the same containment penetration as the R-11 and R-12 radiation monitors.

ACTIONS The most common cause of channel inoperability is outright failure or drift of the bistable or process module sufficient to exceed the tolerance allowed by unit specific calibration procedures. Typically, the drift is found to be small and results in a delay of actuation rather than a total loss of function. This determination is generally made during the performance of a COT, when the process instrumentation is set up for adjustment to bring it within specification. If the Trip Setpoint is less conservative than the tolerance specified by the calibration procedure, the channel must be declared inoperable immediately and the appropriate Condition entered.
A Note has been added to the ACTIONS to clarify the application of Completion Time rules. The Conditions of this Specification may be entered independently for each Function listed in Table 3.3.6-1. The Completion Time(s) of the inoperable channel(s)/train(s) of a Function will be tracked separately for each Function starting from the time the Condition was entered for that Function.
A.1 three Condition A applies to the failure of one containment purge isolation radiation monitor channel. Since the four containment radiation monitors 1 measure different parameters, failure of a single channel may result in loss of the radiation monitoring Function for certain events.
Consequently, the failed channel must be restored to OPERABLE status.
The 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> allowed to restore the affected channel is justified by the low likelihood of events occurring during this interval, and recognition that one or more of the remaining channels will respond to most events.
