°F, what action is required, and why?

_____ A. Initiate Drywell Sprays to maintain RPV Water Level Instrument Accuracy.

_____ B. Emergency Depressurize because Drywell Design Temperature has been exceeded.

_____ C. Initiate Drywell Sprays prior to re aching conditions which will result in exceeding evaporative cooling limits.

_____ D. Emergency Depressurize to maintain the isolation capability of the Main Steam Isolation Valves (MSIVs).

Correct Answer : B BWROG EPG Basis is the lesser of Drywell Design Temperature or ADS Qualification Temperature, at Fermi-2, these values are BOTH 340

°F. Plausible Distractors: A is plausible, but the RPV Saturation Curve coupled with erratic level instrument behavior are the criteria for "Level Unknown" Em ergency Depressurization - not 340

°F without regard to RPV Pressure. Example, DW=350

°F, RPV pressure = 1000 psig, SAT CURVE is not violated.

C is plausible, and is the correct basis for the Drywell Spray Initiation Limit Curve, (DWSIL), which is also a Drywell Temperature cons ideration and required at lower Drywell Temperatures.

D is plausible, Containment Integrity is the basis, MSIVs incl ude Outboard Valves which are not subject to DW Temperature a nd provide isolation capability.

QUESTION 55

Drywell Pressure is 2 psig. Div 1 SG TS is in service with Div 2 SGTS OUT OF SERVICE for maintenance. The following indications occur:

  • 8D35, DIV I SGTS AIR FLOW STOPPED, alarms
  • T4600-F004A, Div 1 SGTS Exhaust Fan Inlet Isolation Damper, is CLOSED This will result in a condition which FIRST requires entry into the:

_____ A. Radiation Release Control EOP Leg to ensure that any airborne radioactive material, in the Secondary Containment, is not released to the surrounding atmosphere.

_____ B. Secondary Containment Control EOP Leg to ensure that unfiltered airborne radioactive material, in the Secondary Containment, is not released to the surrounding atmosphere.

_____ C. Secondary Containment Control EOP Leg to limit the maximum temperatures for equipment located in the Secondary Containment which is necessary to place the plant in a stable shutdown condition.

_____ D. Radiation Release Control EOP Leg to place the plant in a condition which reduces the motive force for radioactive material release from inside the Secondary Containment to the environs.

Correct Answer : B High Drywell Pressure indication implies that Reactor Building Ventilation has tripped and isolated. Low Secondary Containment D/P re quires Secondary Containment Control EOP Entry to ensure that any airborne radioactive material in the Secondary Containment is not released to the surrounding atmosphere without passing through the SGTS filters.

2006 Fermi-2 NRC RO License Exam - Retake Plausible Distractors:

A is plausible, Radiation Release EOP Leg may be required AFTER radioactivity is released without passing through the SGTS filters.

C is plausible, High Area Temperatures is a Secondary Containment Control EOP Leg entry, but SGTS does not effectively limit Area Temperatures, due to having no supply cooling. D is plausible, radiation releases may be lim ited by reducing plant pressure, which reduces steam leakage and motive force. NO radi ation release conditions are given.

_____ D. G3352-F004, RWCU Supply Ou tboard Isolation Valve, AND G3352-F220, RWCU to Feedwater Outboard Containment Isolation Valve, CLOSE.

Correct Answer : D SBLC Initiation directly cause s G3352-F004, RWCU Supply Ou tboard Isolation Valve AND G3352-F220, RWCU to Feedwater Outboard Containment Isolation Valve to CLOSE.

Plausible Distractors:

A is plausible, this is an i ndirect trip, on G3352-F004 Not Full Open. Valve gets close signal and closes, leaving full open limit switch (5% clos ed/95% open). Full open contact in pump trip string, closes, tripping the pump.

B is plausible, this is an indirect effect. Sensed Low F/D Flow will cause F/Ds to transfer to HOLD. C is plausible, but is NOT an interlock associated with SBLC.

With the plant operating at 100%

power, the following occur:

  • 3D103, APRM TROUBLE, alarms.
  • 9D70, DIV I 120V RPS BUS 1A POWER FAILURE, alarms.

Which one of the following describes the impact of this failure?

_____ A.

ALL APRM Channels are operable AND a Half Scram has occurred.

_____ B. APRM Channel 1 indicates INOP trip AND a Half Scram has occurred.

_____ C. APRM Channels 1 and 3 indicate INOP trip AND a Full Scram has occurred.

_____ D.

ALL APRM Channels are operable AND ONLY a Control Rod Block has occurred.

Correct Answer : A APRMs have a QLVPS powered from both RPS A and B in an auctioneered manner. Loss of one RPS power supply will cause a non-critical self-test fault only. No functions will be affected. Loss of RPS A side causes a half scram, not from APRMs.

Plausible Distractors: B is plausible, based on former design of PRNM.

C is plausible, based on former design of PRNM and misconception of new design requiring any 2 APRMs for a full scram.

D is plausible, APRMs are not affected. The Half scram is a result of the loss of RPS bus 1A.

The following conditions exist:

  • Reactor power is 65%.
  • RPV Pressure is 1010 psig.
  • Turbine Flow Limiter setting is 70%.
  • Reactor Flow Limiter setting is 115%.
  • Pressure Regulator No. 1 is in service set at 944 psig.

A transient occurs that results in a reactor power increase to 85% CTP. This causes:

_____ A. Turbine Control Valves to CLOSE and will result in an RPS actuation from TCV Fast Closure.

_____ B. Turbine Control Valves to OPEN and will result in an RPS actuation associated with RPV Level.

_____ C. Turbine Control Valves AND Bypass Valves to OPEN. NO RPS actuations are expected to occur.

_____ D. Turbine Control Valves to AND Bypass Valves to OPEN. This transient will be terminated by RPS actuation associated with RPV Pressure.

Correct Answer : C An increase in reactor power causes TCVs to open. The BPVs will open on pressure control once power rises to 70% based on Turbine Flow Limiter setting. Steam flow will not exceed the BPV capacity (25%) and reactor pressure and power will rise. No RPS actuations will occur. Plausible Distractors:

A is plausible, if misconception about Pressure Control mode exists. This is plausible if TCVs initially CLOSE due to a Trip signal.

B is plausible, if misconception about plant effects exist. High steam flow could cause 2006 Fermi-2 NRC RO License Exam - Retake lowering level, if makeup capability is inadequate. The Feedwater system can handle a 20%

power change.

D is plausible, if BPV capacity is exceeded.

_____ A.

LOW Off Gas System Flow.

_____ B.

LOW Off Gas Oxygen Concentration.

_____ C.

HIGH Off Gas Hydrogen Concentration.

_____ D.

HIGH Off Gas Radiation Monitor Indication.

Correct Answer : A The SJAEs isolate with steam pressure < 50 psig and condenser vacuum will decrease, per the ARP. With no condenser non-condensables and steam flow through the SJAEs, Off Gas system flow will decrease.

Plausible Distractors:

B is plausible, with no flow, no Hydroge n is available for recombination, Oxygen concentration rises.

C is plausible, this is an AOP indication for a wet recombiner. D is plausible, this is an AOP indication for failed fuel cladding. Low System Flow will cause LOW Radiation Monitor Readings.
