Which one of the following describes the reasons for transferring Divisions 1 and 2 file://F:\SROExamRev3Final.htm 8/9/2005

View Exams Page 4 of 207 buses from offsite power sources to the diesel generators during degraded grid voltage situations?

A.

Safety related loads are only allowed to be supplied power from Emerency Diesel Generators during accident conditions.

B.

To preclude damage to safety related electrical equipment as a result of extended operation at reduced voltage levels.

C.

To prevent core damage by ensuring safety systems are connected to a reliable power source and minimize response time during an accident.

D.

To ensure the safety related equipment is supplied with a power source of sufficient capacity to ensure the plant can be maintained in a safe shutdown condition during an accident.

Answer: B Question Answer A is INCORRECT because Offsite power sources are the Comments: preferred power sources for the ESF buses. Answer B is CORRECT because voltage degradation in conjunction with operating equipment can cause damage to safety related equipment normally operated on these buses. Answer C is incorrect because the transient times associated with transferring power to alternate feeds (Diesel Generators) is consistent with the accident analyses. Answer D is incorrect because the offsite power sources have sufficient capacity to handle all loads required for safe shutdown during accident conditions and do not have the lower limitations of the diesel generators.

EB QUESTION: 4 (1.0 Points)

The plant is operating at rated conditions when a turbine trip occurs.

Immediately following the transient, the reactor water level shrink associated with the reactor pressure change will:

A.

cause reactor water level to initially drop, then recover to a value lower than the initial level.

B.

not be seen because of the sharp drop in steam flow.

C.

not be seen because of setpoint setdown.

D.

cause reactor water level to rapidly drop and then recover to it's initial level.

Answer: A Question Answer A is CORRECT because reactor water level will initially drop as Comments: the rise in reactor pressure collapses voids. When the bypass valves open to combat the reactor pressure rise, voids reform and reactor water level recovers. However, because of the setpoint setdown feature, reactor water level stabilizes at a new value lower than is normal for an operating reactor. Answer B is INCORRECT because the sharp drop in steam flow following a reactor scram reduces the void content in the reactor, resulting in a drop in reactor water level. Answer C is INCORRECT because the setpoint setdown feature, by design, will file://F:\SROExamRev3Final.htm 8/9/2005

View Exams Page 9 of 207 change reactor water level following a scram. Answer D is INCORRECT because reactor water level will initially drop, but setpoint setdown is designed to recover reactor water level to a value lower than the level normal for an operating reactor.

A small fire with heavy smoke has forced the Operations crew to abandon the Control Room before the reactor could be shutdown.

Which of the following will scram the reactor from outside the Control Room?

A.

Open breakers CB3A and CB7B.

B.

Open breakers CB2A and CB8A.

Open breakers CB2B and CB8B.

D.

Open breakers CB2A and CB2B.

Answer: D Question Answer A is incorrect because this will have no effect on the RPS logic.

Comments: Answer B is incorrect because opening only one division of breakers will result in only a half scram. Answer C is incorrect because opening only one division of breakers will result in only a half scram. Answer D is CORRECT because at least 1 RPS breaker in division (1 and 2) is required for full scram. This is a NEW question. TIER 1 GROUP 1 CFR 41.6/41.7/41.10/43.5 Image

C.

This is the indicated level used in the FSAR accident analysis for the "Loss of Forced Circulation" Time to Boil Curves.

D.

This is the indicated level required to allow natural circulation through the core and feedwater annulus.

Answer: D Question Answer A is INCORRECT because the indicated level required to Comments: establish flow through open safety relief valves to the suppression pool is between +101 to 129 inches. Answer B is INCORRECT because the Reactor Water Cleanup System can be used as an alternate cooling method at normal water level. Answer C is INCORRECT because each Time to Boil Curve specifies the initial conditions of time after shutdown and RPV level for thier valid analysis. Answer D is CORRECT because this is the level at which sufficient driving head exists to establish natural circulation through the core.

View Exams Page 21 of 207 EB QUESTION: 10 (1.0 Points)

In Mode 5 during a Shutdown Margin Demonstration (SMD), which one of the following would be the immediate concern in the event of inadvertent criticality?

A.

Unplanned mode change B.

Fuel damage C.

Inadequate decay heat removal D.

High in-plant dose Answer: D Question Answer D is CORRECT because of the near proximity of workers in the Comments: drywell and on 208 of containment relative to the reactor core during a refueling outage. Localized criticality would raise dose rates in the drywell and possibly within line of sight of the core on elev. 208 of containment.

Procedural guidance clearly prioritizes dose rate monitoring for an inadvertent criticality event. Answer A is INCORRECT since in Mode 5, a mode change is not made based on the effects of criticality, rising flux or coolant temperature, but only by Reactor Mode Switch position. Answer B is INCORRECT because any postulated criticality would be localized, not global, since control rod density would be ~99% for the SMD. Also, IRMs would generate a rod block and/or scram to limit the power excursion.

Manual control rod insertion or system interlocks would mitigate the local power rise. Answer C is INCORRECT due to the lengthy amount of time it would take for the large volume of reactor coolant during Mode 5 to reach a temperature of significant concern. Other methods of decay heat removal could be placed in service during that time. Moreover, the control rod(s) withdrawn for the SDM would be quickly inserted to terminate the event.

EB QUESTION: 12 (1.0 Points)

Which one of the following describes the reason for automatic actuation of Alternate Rod Insertion (ARI) in response to rising reactor pressure?

A.

ARI acts independently of RPS to insert control rods during conditions that should have resulted in a reactor scram.

B.

ARI utilizes the RPS trip units to provide an alternate vent path for the scram air header as a backup to RPS.

C.

ARI anticipates a reactor scram and assists RPS by establishing alternate vent paths for the scram air header.

D.

ARI acts in conjunction with the Recirculation pumps to prevent exceeding the RPV pressure safety limit.

Answer: A Question Answer A is CORRECT because ARI is an independent system to RPS Comments: which utilizes separate B21 trip units to open three independent vent paths in the event reactor pressure exceeds the 1064.7 psig scram setpoint. The ARI setpoint is at 1126 psig which is sufficiently above the scram setpoint to minimize inadvertent trips. Answer B is incorrect because ARI uses separate B21 trip units from those used by RPS.

Answer C is incorrect because ARI actuation setpoint is higher than the RPS actuation. Answer D is incorrect because the Safety Relief Valves will prevent challenging the RPV Pressure Safety Limit. TIER 1 GROUP 1 This is a NEW question. CFR 41.5/41.6 Image

EB QUESTION: 13 (1.0 Points)

Which one of the following is the basis to emergency depressurize the RPV prior to exceeding the Heat Capacity Temperature Limit (HCTL) of the Suppression Pool?

A.

The emergency depressurization adds negative reactivity to the core and thereby reduces the total energy addition into the containment.

B.

Prevent introduction of energy into the suppression pool at a rate that exceeds the energy removal rate of plant systems.

C.

Emergency depressurizing the RPV prior to exceeding HCTL ensures the ECCS pumps will maintain NPSH if required to operate.

D.

Prevent exceeding containment pressure and temperature limits in the event emergency depressurization is required.

Answer: D Question HCTL requires emergency depressurization of the RPV in the event Comments: conditions are in the UNSAFE region to protect equipment in the pressure suppression chamber (Containment) from the maximum temperature and pressure capability per the PSTGs. Therefore Answer D is the only correct answer. Answer B is incorrect because it says when the reactor is still pressurized. Tier 1 Group 1 This is a NEW question.

EB QUESTION: 14 (1.0 Points)

ATWS conditions exist.

Average Containment temperature is 187°F and slowly rising.

Suppression Pool temperature is 147°F and rising.

Suppression Pool level is 20 feet and rising.

Which one of the following describes the action that should be taken to control Containment parameters?

A.

Vent the Containment B.

Emergency depressurize the reactor C.

Operate all containment coolers utilizing EP Attachment 7 D.

Initiate Containment Spray Answer: B Question Answer A is incorrect since the vent path for EP attachment 14 is isolated Comments: and cannot be opened under the listed conditions.Answer B is correct since EP-3 step 28 requires emergency depressurization if containment file://F:\SROExamRev3Final.htm 8/9/2005

View Exams Page 30 of 207 temperature cannot be restored below 185°F. Containment temperature cannot be restored below 185°F since P71 is isolated to the containment under these conditions, so normal containment cooling is unavailable.

Answer C is incorrect since operation of containment coolers without P71 as a heat sink would be ineffective. Answer D is incorrect since EP-3 Step 29 requires emergency depressurization and any other action would be inappropriate. Tier 1 Group 1 This is a NEW question. 10 CFR 41.10/43.5 Image

Following a reactor scram on high Drywell pressure, RPV water level initially dropped to - 20 inches on wide range.

HPCS automatically initiated.

As level was being restored, the HS for the HPCS Pump was stopped and the HPCS Injection Valve E22-F004 was taken to close.

RPV level is now +60 inches Narrow Range and Drywell pressure is 1.5 psig.

In this situation, if the HPCS INIT RESET pushbutton is depressed, the:

A.

HPCS pump will auto start immediately but the HPCS Injection Valve E22-F004 will have to be opened using the handswitch.

B.

HPCS pump will auto start immediately and the HPCS Injection Valve E22-F004 will automatically open.

C.

HPCS pump will auto start after reactor water level drops below Level 2.

D.

HPCS pump will auto start after reactor water level drops below Level 8.

Answer: C Question Answer A is incorrect because depressing HPCS INIT RESET would Comments: reset the initiation signal and override high drywell pressure. HPCS pump would not auto start until -41.6 in. level was reached. Answer B is incorrect because the HPCS HI LVL RESET push button does not bypass high level but only resets the seal in when level falls below 53.5 in.. Answer C is CORRECT because the High Drywell pressure signal is bypassed such that HPCS is reset to a standby condition and will auto initiate on level 2. Answer D is incorrect because depressing HPCS INIT RESET would reset the initiation signal and override high drywell pressure the system will remain in standby until level 2 is reached.

EB QUESTION: 21 (1.0 Points)

The plant is operating at 20% power when a loss of condenser vacuum occurred due to air inleakage.

What will be the first cause of a direct reactor scram as condenser vacuum slowly lowers?

A.

Main Turbine Trip B.

Low Reactor water level C.

High Reactor Water Level D.

Group 1 isolation Answer: B Question Answer A is incorrect because the Main Turbine Trip Scram signals are Comments: bypassed. Answer B is CORRECT because the reactor feed pump turbine trip will cause reactor level to drop causing a Level 3 Scram signal. Answer C is incorrect because the reactor will drop when the RFPTs trip. Answer D is incorrect because the reactor will scram on low water level well before the MSIV closure setpoint of 9Hg vacuum is reached.

EB QUESTION: 22 (1.0 Points)

The plant was at the end of the current operating cycle following a 400 day run when the plant was scrammed due to bus 15AA lockout.

SRVs are being used for reactor pressure control.

The time estimated to restore bus 15AA is 16 hours1.851852e-4 days <br />0.00444 hours <br />2.645503e-5 weeks <br />6.088e-6 months <br />.

Which one of the following should be performed to control reactor pressure?

A.

Install nitrogen bottles on the Instrument Air header supply to the ADS air receivers in the Auxiliary Building.

B.

Bypass the MSIVs and bleed reactor pressure to the Main Condenser through the Main Steam drains from the control room.

C.

Allow Low-Low Set function of the SRVs to maintain pressure by cycling only two SRVs.

D.

Install air jumpers in the Auxiliary Building to open Instrument Air Isolation valves restoring Instrument Air to the SRV receivers .

Answer: A Question This task is performed by Non-Licensed Operators and Mechanics in the Comments: Auxiliary Building to supply air (nitrogen) to the ADS valves for reactor file://F:\SROExamRev3Final.htm 8/9/2005

View Exams Page 47 of 207 pressure control. Answer A is CORRECT since the estimated time to restore bus 15AA and restore instrument air to supply SRVs exceeds the 6 hour6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> limit in the referenced plant procedures. This installs Nitrogen bottles to ADS receivers allowing them to be used for pressure control.

Answer B is incorrect because the loss of bus 15AA prevents opening the Secondary Containment Isolation Air Operated Valves. Answer C is incorrect because the air supply for the Non-ADS SRVs would be exhausted after a short period of time. Answer D is incorrect because would require work instructions to control installation of air jumpers and defeat secondary containment.

EB QUESTION: 23 (1.0 Points)

A three (3) rod out ATWS condition exists with MSIVs closed.

Instrument Air is in normal lineup to the Containment and Drywell.

Which one of the following describes the use of SRVs to control reactor pressure?

A.

Allow Low-Low Set to cycle under these conditions.

B.

If there is only one leaking/weeping SRV, as designated by a colored key, only file://F:\SROExamRev3Final.htm 8/9/2005

C.

Only non-ADS SRVs should be used to preserve ADS Air Receiver pressure, and they should be rotated.

D.

Only ADS SRVs should be used, and they should be rotated.

Answer: C Question Answer A is incorrect because low-low set is not allowed during an Comments: ATWS, as defined by being in EP-2A. Answer B is incorrect because use of only 1 SRV is limited to situations when suppression pool cooling is in service for pool circulation. Answer C is correct because non-ADS valves are specifically preferred when instrument air is available and rotation is required since Suppression Pool Cooling is not in service. Answer D is incorrect because ADS valves are specifically preferred only when instrument air is unavailable. Tier 1 Group 2 This is a NEW question. 10 CFR 41.3/41.7/41.10/43.5 Image

EB QUESTION: 24 (1.0 Points)

The plant is in startup with reactor pressure at 80 psig.

RCIC has developed a steam leak within the RCIC room that cannot be isolated.

The CRS has ordered a reactor scram due to elevated RCIC room temperature.

file://F:\SROExamRev3Final.htm 8/9/2005

View Exams Page 51 of 207 Which one of the following is the reason for the reactor scram for these conditions?

These actions prevent:

A.

An excessive release of radioactive material.

B.

Exceeding any applicable TRM operability limits.

C.

Failure of safe shutdown equipment and allows personnel access to the RCIC room.

D.

Contaminating the Auxiliary Building and manually starting the Standby Gas Treatment system.

Answer: C Question Answer A is incorrect because there is no evidence of fuel failure and Comments: therefor no source for gross amounts of radioactive material. Answer B is incorrect because EP-4 does not require entering EP-2 to effect a scram until the maximum safe temperature, 212°F, is reached. 185°F is the operating limit, only. Answer C is correct because 212°F is the maximum safe temperature for the RCIC room, and with an unisolable leak, a system that cannot be isolated from the RPV is discharging outside primary containment. Per EP-4 step 14, EP-2 should be entered, and it will require manual scram (EP-2 step 3). This will limit the heat added to the area preventing a challenge to equipment in the area and allowing personnel access. Answer D is incorrect since only one area is affected, and temperature would have to exceed maximum safe levels in at least 2 areas before contaminating the Auxiliary Building would becom an issue.

EB QUESTION: 25 (1.0 Points)

How will the Standby Gas Treatment System respond to an event resulting in the following radiation levels detected in ventilation systems:

A B C D

Containment Vent Exhaust Radiation Monitors 3.8 mr/hr 4.0 mr/hr 3.0 mr/hr 4.0 mr/hr Fuel Handling Area Exhaust Radiation Monitors 2.0 mr/hr 4.0 mr/hr 3.0 mr/hr 4.0 mr/hr Fuel Pool Sweep Exhaust Radiation Monitors 32 mr/hr 20 mr/hr INOP 22 mr/hr A.

A and B will remain in standby.

B.

A will automatically start and B will remain in standby.

C.

B will automatically start and A will remain in standby.

D.

A and B will automatically start.

Answer: A Question Initiation setpoint for SGTS from Fuel Handling Area Vent Exh Rad Comments: Monitors is 3.6 mr/hr. Initiation setpoint for SGTS from Fuel Handling Area Pool Sweep Exh Rad Monitors is 30 mr/hr. SGTS does not receive an auto start from Containment/Drywell Vent Exhaust Radiation Monitors.

The initiation logic requires Channels 'A' and 'D' to initiate SGTS 'A', or 'B' and 'C' to initiate SGTS 'B'. With D17K618C removed, a channel 'B' trip of FPS Rad Monitor (K618B) would start SGTS 'B'. Answer A is correct (and answers B,C, and D are incorrect) because D17K618B, D17K618D, D17K618A, and D17K617C do not reach their trip setpoints, so neither division completes a full logic initiation.

The plant is in a refueling outage when a fuel handling accident occurs.

Standby Gas Treatment System (SGTS) A is manually initiated.

on 1H13-P870, amber alarm ENCL BLDG NEG PRESS LO (2A-E3) is subsequently received and does not clear.

What is the operational implication of this alarm?

A.

Greater personnel industrial safety hazard when entering or exiting the auxiliary building.

B.

Possible damage to the enclosure building due to high pressure.

C.

Possible excessive filtered leakage from secondary containment.

D.

Possible excessive unmonitored leakage from secondary containment.

file://F:\SROExamRev3Final.htm 8/9/2005

View Exams Page 56 of 207 Answer: D Question Answer A is incorrect because the alarm is indicative of a higher pressure Comments: in secondary containment (i.e. lower dp relative to outside secondary containment). A safety concern only exists when there is a higher dp, resulting in high forces on doors which could cause them to open quickly when unlatched. Answer B is incorrect because the alarm is indicative of a low dp with respect to outside, not a high dp which could cause excessive forces on enclosure building coverings. Answer C is incorrect because no amount of filtered leakage would be excessive. SGTS flow rates would be governed predominantly by the flow control circuit, so approximately the same flow rate through the SGTS filter train would exist after the 120 sec timer had expired. Answer D is correct because prevention of exfiltration could not be assured if pressure was higher than

-0.25wc. The given alarm occurs at -0.2wc or higher pressure. That leakage would bypass the SGTS filter train and exhaust radiation monitoring system. Tier 1 Group 2 This is a NEW question. 10CFR 41.8/41.10/41.13/43.4/43.5 Image

EB QUESTION: 28 (1.0 Points)

A plant shutdown is in progress and conditions are as follows:

Reactor pressure 30 psig Reactor water level 36 inches Narrow Range Both reactor recirculation pumps are shutdown.

Shutdown cooling was lost due to a failure of the Shutdown Cooling common suction isolation valve E12-F008.

Which of the following would provide an alternate method to ensure core cooling is maintained?

A.

Allowing natural circulation to initiate.

file://F:\SROExamRev3Final.htm 8/9/2005

View Exams Page 60 of 207 B.

Initiating RCIC.

C.

Placing one loop of RHR in the LPCI mode and opening SRVs.

D.

Starting one of the Reactor Recirculation pumps.

Answer: C Question Answer A is incorrect because level is not high enough to allow natural Comments: circulation. Answer B is incorrect because Reactor pressure is below RCIC isolation setpoint making RCIC unavailable. Answer C is CORRECT since these actions are consistent with guidance in ONEP Inadequate Decay Heat Removal 05-1-02-III-1. Answer D is incorrect because the restoration of a Recirc pump does not result in heat removal. Tier 2 Group 1 This is a NEW question. 10CFR41.7 Image

EB QUESTION: 29 (1.0 Points)

The plant is in Mode 5.

RHR B has been placed in Shutdown Cooling with suction from Recirc Loop B, returning to the reactor via RHR B SHUTDN CLG RTN TO FW valve E12-F053B.

RHR B ADHRS MODE TRIP ENABLE hand switch on 1H13-P618 is in NORMAL.

Which one of the following will cause RHR B pump to trip?

file://F:\SROExamRev3Final.htm 8/9/2005

View Exams Page 62 of 207 A.

Opening the power supply to RHR SHUTDN CLG INBD SUCT VLV E12-F009.

B.

RHR SHUTDN CLG OTBD SUCT VLV E12-F008 were to close to 50%.

C.

RHR B FPC ASSIST SUCTION VLV E12-F066B were to open to 50%.

D.

RHR B ADHRS MODE TRIP ENABLE hand switch on 1H13-P618 were to be placed in ADHRS position.

Answer: B Question The purpose of the RHR pump suction path interlocks is to trip the RHR Comments: pump when no fully open suction path exists. Answer A is incorrect because the trip circuit for RHR pump B looks directly at the limit switch contact for E12F009. It does not rely on control power for E12F009, but uses RHR B/C DC logic power. Answer B is correct because the trip circuit for RHR pump B looks directly at the limit switch for E12F008.

RHR pump B trip coil is energized when the valve closes to not full open position, ~95% open. Answer C is incorrect because either a suction path from the reactor, one from the suppression pool, or one from the fuel pool has to exist for RHR pump to remain running. In this case, a suction path exists from the reactor, so isolation of the suction path from the fuel pool does not energize the pump trip coil. Answer D is incorrect because placing RHR B ADHRS MODE TRIP ENABLE hand switch in ADHRS position only removes E12F066B as a permissive to run RHR pump B.

As long as the suction path from the reactor is aligned fully open, the pump will continue to run. Tier 2 Group 1 This is a NEW question. 10CFR 41.7 Image

D.

Prevent Main Turbine and Reactor Feed Pump trips.

Answer: C Question The FSAR design function and Tech Spec bases for the High Reactor Comments: Water Level isolation of E22-F004 HPCS Injection Valve is to prevent water introduction into the Main Steam Lines. Answer A is incorrect because this is not the reason listed in Tech Spec bases and FSAR. In this case, SRVs would prevent over-pressurization. Answer B is incorrect because this is not the reason listed in Tech Spec bases and FSAR. The design function of HPCS is to provide adequate core cooling, not to control cool down rates. Answer C is CORRECT because this is the reason listed in Tech Spec bases and is assumed in the accident analysis. Answer D is incorrect because this is not the reason listed in Tech Spec bases and FSAR, and would not prevent reaching level 9 in all cases due the time required for E22 F004 to stroke closed.

EB QUESTION: 34 (1.0 Points) file://F:\SROExamRev3Final.htm 8/9/2005

View Exams Page 72 of 207 A plant startup is in progress at 36% of rated thermal power.

The A Main Bypass Control Valve (BCV) has failed open and startup has been suspended.

The Baxter Wilson 500 KV line into GGNS trips causing breakers J5228 and J5232 to open.

The Turbine Initial Pressure Control (IPC) system responds as designed, except the A Main Bypass Control Valve remains open.

How would the plant automatically respond to this event and what operator actions should be taken?

A.

The Reactor Recirculation Pumps would transfer to slow speed and the reactor would scram on high water level. Enter the Reactor Scram ONEP.

B.

The Reactor Recirculation Pumps would transfer to slow speed and the reactor would scram due to the Turbine Control Valve closure. Enter the Reactor Scram ONEP.

C.

The Reactor Recirculation Pumps would remain in fast speed and the reactor would scram on high neutron flux. Enter the Reactor Scram ONEP.

D.

The Reactor Recirculation Pumps would remain in fast speed and the reactor would continue to operate. Suspend plant startup until the BCV A failure is corrected.

Answer: D Question Though at 36% power, turbine 1st stage inlet pressure was equivalent to Comments: ~26% power with one bypass valve full open (~13%) worth). TSV/TCV scrams bypassed until 40% power based on Turbine 1st stage inlet pressure. Therefore, EOC/RPT and scram from TCV/TSV closure is automatically bypassed. B and C bypass valves can accommodate steam flow for the remaining 26% power, so reactor pressure is relatively unaffected. Answer A and B are incorrect because EOC/RPT is bypassed under given conditions. Answer C is incorrect because bypass valves are fast acting and can accommodate all steam flow for the specified power level, so the pressure/flux transient is minimal, well below what would cause a high flux scram. Answer D is CORRECT for the reasons file://F:\SROExamRev3Final.htm 8/9/2005

EB QUESTION: 35 (1.0 Points)

Which of the following combinations of plant activities would be allowed by plant procedures?

A.

Driving in IRM A while I&C performs a surveillance for Scram Discharge Volume Water Level High channel B B.

Driving in IRM A with the under-vessel service platform out of its standby position and the under-detector grid sections installed C.

Driving out IRM A while driving out IRM C in Mode 2 D.

Driving out IRM Aand IRM B simultaneously in Mode 1 Answer: C Question Answer A is incorrect because driving IRM might cause a Div 2 half Comments: scram during the Div 1 half scram surveillance, resulting in a full scram.

Answer B is incorrect because this might cause damage to the IRM drive cables. Answer C is correct because both IRMs are Div 1, so the worst consequence for driving one IRM, a Div 1 half scram, is no worse than that for driving the two IRMs simulataneously. Answer D is incorrect because driving IRM A might cause a Div 1 half scram, driving IRM B might cause a Div 2 half scram, resulting in a full scram.

EB QUESTION: 36 (1.0 Points)

With the plant in Mode 2, which of the following will result in a control rod block?

A.

SRM A is upscale and bypassed.

SRM E is NOT full in and reads 70 cps.

All IRMs are on Range 2.

B.

SRMs A and E are INOP.

IRMs A and E are on Range 9.

C.

SRM A is upscale and bypassed.

SRM B is NOT full in and reads 275 cps.

All IRMs are on range 2.

D.

SRMs A and B are INOP.

IRMs A and B are on Range 9.

Answer: A Question With SRM E not full in and less than 70 CPS a rod block will occur Comments: because SRM s are single coincidence logic and SRM E will generate a rod block. None of the other conditions would generate a control rod block, therefore Answer A is the only correct answer. Tier 2 Group 1 This is a NEW question. 10CFR 41.2/41.6 Image

A condenstate system transient occurred while at 100% power which caused reactor water level to drop to -50 inches wide range.

Level 2 Trip units for Groups 6, 7, 8, 10 and Auxiliary Building (B21-N682A and B21-N682B) failed to trip.

A large leak on Drywell Chilled Water piping inside containment has been reported.

Regarding building isolations only, what is the appropriate response for these conditions?

A.

All Division 1 valves have failed to isolate. All Division 2 valves have isolated.

Manually close all Division 1 valves that failed to isolate.

file://F:\SROExamRev3Final.htm 8/9/2005

View Exams Page 84 of 207 B.

Only Division 1 and 2 primary containment valves have failed to isolate. All secondary containment valves have closed. Isolate all primary containment valves.

C.

No primary or secondary containment valves have isolated. Close at least one valve in each penetration, except for Instrument Air and Plant Service Water.

D.

No primary or secondary containment valves have isolated. Close at least one valve in each penetration, except for Drywell Chilled Water, Instrument Air and Plant Service Water.

Answer: C Question Many isolations should have occurred due to low reactor water level, Comments: level 2. Operations Philosophy, 02-S-01-27, states in a failure to isolate situation, only one valve in each penetration that should be isolated needs to be shut, and to not isolate P53, P44, or P72 if those systems are intact and are going to be unisolated per the EPs. Answer A is incorrect because only one valve in each penetration is required to be closed. Answer B is incorrect because some isolation valves that failed are MOVs, and loss of air has no effect on them. Answer C is correct because it mirrors Operations Philosophy as stated above. P72 should be isolated because of a system breach. Answer D is correct because P72 should be isolated because of a system breach. Tier 2 Group 1 This is a NEW question. 10CFR 41.9/41.10/43.5 Image

Answer: C Question The condition is indicative of failure upward of the RFP A speed Comments: controller. The master level controller and RFP B speed controller are responding to the increased inventory added by RFP A. Answer A is incorrect because The Master Controller output is responding to RPV level. The transient is stated to be slow, and scramming is not conservative if it can be avoided. Procedural guidance exists to avoid a scram. Answer B is incorrect because the master level controller controller is responding properly to the failure of RFP A speed controller.

Answer C is CORRECT because ONEP 05-1-02-V-6 specifically directs this action for the given failure. Answer D is incorrect because RFP B controller is responding properly to the failure of A. Tier 2 Group 1 This is a NEW question. 10 CFR 41.4/41.10/43.5 Image

EB QUESTION: 43 (1.0 Points)

The plant is at 100% power.

Which one of the following will cause the Feedwater THREE ELEMENT pushbutton DISABLED back light to illuminate on 1H13-P680-2C?

A.

B Feedwater flow signal drifts up to 11 mlbm/hr.

B.

The difference between highest and lowest Main Steam Line Flow signals diverges to 1 mlbm/hr.

C.

The difference between Feedwater Flow A and B diverge to 0.6 mlbm/hr greater than normal.

D.

Plant power reduction to 45% rated thermal power.

Answer: A Question Answer A is correct because when a feedwater flow signal goes above Comments: 10.6 mlbm/hr it is a hard failure which disables three element control.

Answer B is incorrect because Steam flow divergence is 1.6 mlbm/hr to disable three element control. Answer C is incorrect because feedwater flow divergence is 0.8 mlbm/hr to disable three element control. Answer D is incorrect because on a power decrease three element control is disabled at 30% power (4.95 mlbm/hr). Tier 2 Group 1 10CFR41.7/41.10/43.5 Image

EB QUESTION: 44 (1.0 Points)

A planned move of radioactive material is planned on the refueling floor.

As a precaution, Standby Gas Treatment System (SGTS) A has been started and applicable parameters have stabilized.

Enclosure Building differential pressure is -0.6 inches wc and stable.

An operator is about to manually start Standby Gas Treatment system B.

How should the Steam Tunnel Outside Containment damper, T48-F005 respond?

A.

T48-F005 will immediately throttle to its intermediate position.

B.

T48-F005 will travel full open and throttle to its intermediate position after 90 seconds.

C.

T48-F005 will travel full open and throttle to its intermediate position after 120 seconds.

D.

T48-F005 will travel full open and throttle to its intermediate position after 120 seconds or Enclosure Building pressure reaches -.75 inches wc.

file://F:\SROExamRev3Final.htm 8/9/2005

View Exams Page 93 of 207 Answer: A Question Answer A is correct because enclosure building pressure is less than -

Comments: 0.2 inches wc when SGTS B is initiated, so T48F005 goes to intermediate position right away. Answer B is incorrect because the T48F005 damper will not travel to it full open position before throttling.

Answer C is incorrect because T48F005 would go to intermediate position right away instead of 120 sec later. Answer D is incorrect because T48F005 would go to intermediate position right away instead of 120 sec or -.75 inches wc in the enclosure building. These times are actually for flow control vane T48F500B. Tier 2 Group 1 This is a NEW question. 10CFR 41.4/41.13 Image

open, load shedding would occur, and the output breaker would re-close automatically. No operator action is required.

B.

remain closed and load shedding would occur, and loads are sequenced on. No operator action is required.

C.

remain closed and load shedding would NOT occur. The operator would manually secure the unnecessary loads.

D.

open, load shedding would occur, and the operator would have to re-close the output breaker.

Answer: B Question With the Diesel carrying the bus by itself the diesel output breaker will Comments: remain closed but the Load Shedding and Sequencing system will shed the loads on the bus resequencing the loads per the LOCA sequencing process.

The plant is operating normally at 100% power when the normal supply breaker to bus 16AB trips open. As expected, DG 12 starts and comes up to 450 RPM. However, the Ready to Load light is not lit and the generator frequency and voltage meters are both reading downscale. The output breaker did not close and the LSS failure alarm has annunciated.

Based on these indications the operator would suspect:

A.

generator frequency is low.

B.

generator voltage is low.

C.

the Parallel Reset Switch needs to be reset.

D.

the lockout relay for bus 16AB has tripped.

Answer: B Question The ready to load light is powered off the AC bus and will not light until file://F:\SROExamRev3Final.htm 8/9/2005

View Exams Page 103 of 207 Comments: the DG output breaker closes. Because the engine is at 450 RPM the generator is turning at the electrical equivalent to 60 Hz. However, the frequency meter will not indicate a value if the generator has no voltage output. Therefore the immediate suspicion would be the generator field flash failed and the generator output voltage is zero. Tier 2 Group 1 This is a NEW question. 10CFR55.41 (7)

EB QUESTION: 52 (1.0 Points)

The plant is in Mode 3 with RHR A in Shutdown Cooling mode.

Reactor coolant temperature is 338°F.

Reactor Water level and temperature were stable before the event.

Which one of the following would be indicative of an RHR A Heat Exchanger tube rupture if a tube leak occurred?

A.

RHR A pump discharge pressure trending up B.

Reactor water level trending up C.

SSW A radiation monitor readings trending up file://F:\SROExamRev3Final.htm 8/9/2005

View Exams Page 109 of 207 D.

Reactor coolant temperature trending down Answer: C Question Coolant temperature 338°F equates to ~ 100 psig. Tube leakage would Comments: be from RHR to SSW. Answer A is incorrect because a leak into SSW would be less flow restriction, RHR flow would go up and discharge pressure would go down. Answer B is incorrect because RHR would be at a higher pressure than SSW, so RPV level would go down. Answer C is CORRECT because RHR would leak into SSW. Reactor water is of higher activity than SSW, so rad monitor readings would go up. Answer D is incorrect because less RHR flow to the reactor, which would be at a higher temperature, would result. So, higher temperature IS indicative of a tube leak. Tier 2 Group 1 This is a NEW question. 10CFR 41.7/41.13/43.4 Image

EB QUESTION: 53 (1.0 Points)

The plant is at 100% power.

The Turbine Building Cooling Water (TBCW) temperature control valve, P44-F513, fails closed.

Which one of the following will necessitate plant shutdown first, assuming Loss of TBCW ONEP actions are performed, but P44-F513 remains closed?

file://F:\SROExamRev3Final.htm 8/9/2005

Main Turbine Lube Oil temperature B.

Loss of Instrument Air Compressors C.

Reactor Feed Pump Oil temperature D.

Generator Seal Oil temperature Answer: D Question This question is based on actual plant events and the changes made to Comments: the ONEP for Loss of TBCW. At 100% power, seal oil temperature is normally ~ 115°F. This is only 10°F margin to the limit of 125°F specified in plant procedures where plant shutdown is required. The ONEP lists temperatures in their expected order of priority. That sequence is expected based on plant data for a universal degradation of TBCW heat removal capacity. Seal oil is expected to reach its limit first based on plant and simulator data, given its normal operating temperature. That is why answer D is correct and answers A, B, and C are incorrect.

B.

Recirc Pump breakers CB-3A/B are closed and Recirc Flow Control Valves are 68% open.

C.

All the Recirc Pump breakers are open and Recirc Flow Control Valves are 20%

open.

D.

All the Recirc Pump breakers are open and Recirc Flow Control Valves are 68%

open Answer: B Question Drywell pressure will cause the Recirc FCV HPUs to trip preventing Comments: valve motion on the FCVs (remain at 68%). The Drywell pressure will cause a reactor scram preventing the EOC actuation. RPV level dropping will cause ATWS RPT to occur opening CB-1, 2, 4, 5 for both Recirc pumps.

Which one of the following conditions associated with the RWCU system will cause a reduction in plant efficiency when operating at 100% power?

Assume none of the listed actions cause a RWCU filter/deminerilizer isolation.

A.

A rise of 5°F in Component Cooling Water temperature at the inlet of the RWCU Non-Regenerative Heat Exchangers.

B.

The RWCU Filter/Demineralizer Bypass valve is leaking by a value of 100 gpm.

C.

An RWCU flow controller malfunction resulting in a reduction in total RWCU flow of 100 gpm.

D.

The RWCU Regenerative Heat Exchanger Bypass valve is throttle open 25%.

Answer: D Question Answer A is incorrect because a rise in CCW temperature results in a Comments: rise in RWCU temperature that causes a less heat having to be made up by the core thus a rise in efficiency. Answer B is incorrect because bypassing the Filter Demineralizers does not affect the heat loss of RWCU such that there is no effect on plant efficiency. Answer C is incorrect because a reduction in RWCU flow means less cool water to be reheated by the core thus a rise in plant efficiency. Answer D is CORRECT because less cooling flow through the Regenerative heat exchanger results in less preheating of the return RWCU water to the reactor causing a loss in plant efficiency.

A.

there is sufficient heat capacity in the Suppression Pool to absorb the energy from a rapid depressurization.

B.

there is sufficient water to preclude the rise in Suppression Pool temperature affecting the operation of the ECCS injection pumps.

C.

there is sufficient backpressure to limit steam flowrates and potential damage to the SRVs.

D.

the SRV discharge quenchers in the Suppression Pool are submerged.

Answer: D Question 10.5 feet in the suppression pool is based on coverage of the SRV Comments: quenchers being covered to prevent the introduction of steam into Containment which would present a challenge to the Containment Sturcture.

EB QUESTION: 60 (1.0 Points)

The plant was at 100% power when a LOCA occurred.

Severe Accident Procedures have been entered.

The Control Room Supervisor has directed initiation of the Outboard Main Steam Isolation Valve Leakage Control System (MSIV LCS).

Which one of the following describes the effect of Standby Gas Treatment System (SGTS) on the effluent of the MSIV LCS?

A.

file://F:\SROExamRev3Final.htm 8/9/2005

View Exams Page 125 of 207 Either Standby Gas Treatment System (SGTS) A or B will process most of the effluent from either MSIV LCS subsystem.

B.

Effluent of the Outboard MSIV LCS is piped directly to Standby Gas Treatment System (SGTS) A ducting, therefore SGTS A is the preferred system to operate.

C.

Simultaneous operation of both Inboard MSIV LCS and Outboard MSIV LCS is prohibited unless both Standby Gas Treatment Systems (SGTS) are in operation.

D.

Operation of the Outboard MSIV LCS in conjunction with Standby Gas Treatment System (SGTS) B is preferred.

Answer: A Question Answer A is correct because MSIV LCS exhausts to auxiliary building Comments: corridors on 119 elev. SGTS takes suction on these areas and maintains negative pressure in the auxiliary building, therefore essentially all MSIV LCS exhaust will be eventually processed by SGTS. Answer B is incorrect because MSIV LCS is not piped directly to SGTS, but only in the vicinity of an intake to SGTS ductwork. Answer C is incorrect because simultaneous operation of both inboard and outboard MSIV LCS is always prohibited. Answer D is incorrect because SGTS A is preferred with the outboard MSIV LCS due to the shorter associated transport time.

A LOCA has occurred causing Drywell pressure to rise to 4.2 psig.

Which one of the following describes a possible flowpath to transfer the contents of the Containment Floor Drain sump under these conditions?

A.

The sump cannot be transferred.

B.

The sump will automatically transfer directly to the Floor Drain Collector tank.

C.

The sump will automatically transfer to the Auxiliary Building Floor Drain Transfer tank then to the Floor Drain Collector tank.

D.

The sump can be transferred to the Suppression Pool via AUX BLDG EQ/FL DR PMPBK TO SUPP POOL valves, P45-F273 and P45-F274.

Answer: A Question With Drywell pressure at 4.2 psig, an NSSSS isolation signal exists. This Comments: closes the Primary and Secondary Containment isolation valves for P45 and cannot be overridden except P45-F273 and F274 which may be overridden 30 seconds after the isolation signal.

EB QUESTION: 66 (1.0 Points)

The plant was at 95% power when Reactor Feed Pump B tripped.

Operation is in the Restricted Region of the Power-Flow Map.

Which of the following indications on 1H13-P680 would allow continued operation of the unit?

A.

APRM oscillations of 14% peak-to-peak.

B.

Annunciators PBDS A INOP (5A-A6) and PBDS B INOP (7A-A6) in due to failed cards.

C.

PBDS A has generated a HI-HI DECAY RATIO (5A-A10) only and PBDS B has generated a HI DECAY RATIO (7A-C4) only.

D.

Alarm PBDS B HI-HI DECAY RATIO (7A-C6) and PDS computer point PBDS Channel B Highest Counts reads 12 counts.

Answer: C Question PBDS is normally a computer indication of APRM oscillations. Answer A Comments: is INCORRECT because APRM oscillations of > 10% is an indication of the onset of instability requiring plant shutdown. Answer B is INCORRECT because with operation in the Restricted Region of the Power to Flow Map and both PBDS channels INOP action with FCTR in NORMAL, calls for immediately placing the reactor mode switch to shutdown. Answer C is CORRECT because Channel A has a HI-HI without a HI which indicates a bad channel and Channel B only has a HI alarm. These conditions allow continued operation but require actions to be taken to immediately exit the region. Answer D is INCORRECT because both the HI-HI alarm on Channel B and indication of 12 counts on the computer point are indications of the Onset of Instability requiring file://F:\SROExamRev3Final.htm 8/9/2005

Blue tie wrap Answer: A Question Yellow plastic seals are used on Fire Protection Valves. Blue Tie-Wraps Comments: are used as a locking devices for valves other than throttled valves.

Lockwire is used by I&C for sealing instrument valves in position. Chains and/or cables with padlocks are acceptable alternatives to Red and Blue Tie Wraps in the event the appropriate tie-wraps are unavailable. This is per Attachment III of 02-S-01-2 Component Position Verification. Based on this the ONLY CORRECT answer is answer A. This question is MODIFIED. Stem changed to Locked Throttled Valve from Locked Closed Valve. Answer Lockwire was replaced with Black Tie Wrap which is normally used when attaching red tags to components.

file://F:\SROExamRev3Final.htm 8/9/2005

View Exams Page 144 of 207 D.

In Mode 2 with IRMs fully inserted, the highest reading IRM indicates 70 on range 8 and the lowest IRM indicates 20 on range 7.

Answer: C Question Answer A is INCORRECT because overlap of IRMs to APRMs is of Comments: concern because system design will initiate rod blocks if adequate overlap is not maintained during power increases. Answer B is INCORRECT because proper overlap is being observed between SRMs and IRMs on plant startup. Answer C is CORRECT because APRMS are reading 4% with at least one IRM >108/125, this does not meet the overlap requirements of 03-1-01-3 section 5.4.7 of Attachment I. The IRM channel check is within a factor of 4 (limit is 10). Answer D is INCORRECT because the IRM channel check is within a factor of 4 (limit is 10). 20 on range 7 is 20 on range 8. Even ranges are just an expansion of the previous odd range. Tier 3 This is a NEW question.

B.

Secure SGTS train A per the T48 SOI.

C.

Dispatch a building operator to start the motor driven fire pump.

D.

Secure both SGTS trains per the T48 SOI.

Answer: A Question The SGTS automatically started due to exceeding a NSSSS LOCA Comments: signal setpoint and cannot be secured until the NSSSS signal is cleared and reset. Therefore answers B and D are incorrect. Answer A is correct because, per the ARI, the exhaust filter train fan for the affected system is opened to minimize the amount of air available to feed the fire. Answer C is incorrect because the motor driven fire should automatically start once the filter train deluge system is activated.

To perform the battery work, both Division 1 battery chargers were also tagged out.

Later in the day, at 1500, a problem was discovered on the HPCS pump breaker and HPCS was declared inoperable.

In this situation, the plant must enter Mode 3, NO later than:

EB QUESTION: 84 (1.0 Points)

The plant was operating at 100% power when a control rod drift annunciator was received.

The ACRO determined that a single control rod was drifting out of the core from position 12 to position 30.

He selected the control rod and attempted to insert it.

An RC&IS malfunction prevented the control rod from fully inserting so core flow was reduced to 67 Mlbm/hr.

Cyclops shows NO challenges to Thermal Limits, but reactor power did rise by 0.6%

before lowering Recirc Flow.

What level of Reactivity Management Event/Precursor is this classified as and who at a minimum is expected to be notified of the occurrence?

NMM OP-103 is provided.

A.

The event is classified as a level 3 reactivity event. Operations Management and Reactor Engineering are notified.

B.

The event is classified as a level 4 precursor. Reactor Engineering and NRC Region IV Headquarters are notified.

C.

The event is classified as a level 3 reactivity event. Operations Management and NRC Region IV Headquarters are notified.

D.

The event is classified as a level 4 precursor. Operations Management and Reactor Engineering are notified.

Answer: A file://F:\SROExamRev3Final.htm 8/9/2005

View Exams Page 174 of 207 Question Subsequent actions of the ONEP for Control Rod/Drive Malfunctions for a Comments: control rod drift requires notification of Reactor Engineering for analysis of the core conditions with an out of position control rod. Operations Philosophy Operations Section Procedure requires analysis by Reactor Engineering. Entergy Policy PL-163 section 2.2 standards requires the notification of Operations Management and Reactor Engineering if abnormal reactivity changes occur in the core. Entergy Nuclear Management Manual Procedure OP-103 Reactivity Management sets this as a Level 3 Reactivity Management Event since it is an unintended power rise by greater than 0.5 percent. It is NOT a Level 4 Reactivity Management Precursor because this is the lesser severity of reactivity management event. This event does not reach the level to make notification to the NRC Regional Headquarters. It would include a courtesy call to the NRC Resident Inspector. Answer A is CORRECT because it is the only answer identifying the correct notifications and level of reactivity management event. 10CFR41.10/43.5/43.6 Image

The plant is at 100% power when secondary containment instrument air isolation valve P53-F026B fails closed due to loss of control power and CANNOT be re-opened.

The first action that should be directed by the Control Room Supervisor for this condition is:

A.

start Reactor Core Isolation Cooling (RCIC) in anticipation of entry into the Loss of Feedwater Flow ONEP due to Main Steam Isolation Valve closure.

B.

attempt to restore power to P53-F026B in accordance with the Loss of AC Power ONEP.

scram the reactor in anticipation of entry into the Control Rod Drive Malfunctions ONEP due to multiple control rod drifts/scrams.

D.

enter EP-2 and lower reactor pressure to 450-600 psig in anticipation of losing the main condenser as a heat sink.

Answer: C Question When air is isolated to the containment it is also lost to the Scram Air Comments: header this allows slow depressurization of the header and control rods to begin to drift/scram due to the scram inlet and outlet valves opening.

Therefore Answer C is the correct answer for the given conditions. Tier 1 Group 2 This is a NEW question. 10CFR 41.10/43.2/43.5 Image

EB QUESTION: 86 (1.0 Points)

The plant was at 100% power when a LOCA occurred.

EP2 and EP3 are being executed.

The only available ECCS systems are RHR A and B.

Current parameters are as follows:

Reactor level is - 194 inches compensated fuel zone and falling.

Pressure Suppression Pressure (PSP) is in the unsafe region.

Both loops of Suppression Pool Cooling are in service, but not maximized.

Reactor Core Isolation Cooling (RCIC), Standby Liquid Control (SLC) and Control Rod Drive (CRD) are injecting at their maximum rates.

How should the CRS direct use of RHR Systems to limit the offsite release rate under these conditions?

A.

file://F:\SROExamRev3Final.htm 8/9/2005

View Exams Page 178 of 207 Execute EP-3 and direct initiation of both loops of Containment Spray.

B.

Execute EP-3 and direct initiation of one loop of Containment Spray, and leave one loop of Suppression Pool Cooling in service.

C.

Execute EP-3 and direct maximizing both loops of Suppression Pool Cooling in service.

D.

Execute EP-2 and direct alignment of RHR A and B for injection into the Reactor.

Answer: D Question Background for ECCS This question involves the difference between use Comments: of RHR for control of Containment parameters to prevent a challenge to the Containment structure and the control of RPV parameters to prevent the degradation of the first fission product barrier. EP-3 step 8 says to initiate those loops of RHR not required for adequate core cooling. With RPV level at -194 inches and falling all ECCS will be aligned to the RPV until no longer needed. Suppression Pool temperature, while above the point to need Suppression Pool cooling, is not critical. RHR is still required for the adequate core cooling issue. Once adequate core cooling is assured, other priorities can be established. Answer D is the only answer to align ECCS Systems (RHR A and B for LPCI Injection mode). Answers A, B, and C align RHR A and B for Containment Spray and Suppression Pool Cooling which are lower priorities than recovering adequate core cooling. This is a NEW question.

EB QUESTION: 87 (1.0 Points)

The plant is in Mode 2 at the point of adding heat.

I&C is removing a chart recorder in 1H13-P629, when incidental electrical contact inside the panel causes Low Pressure Core Spray to initiate and inject into the reactor.

The resulting power excursion causes an IRM scram.

View Exams Page 182 of 207 EB QUESTION: 88 (1.0 Points)

The plant had been operating at 100% power when a scram occurred due to failure of an optical isolator causing a Recirculation Pump double downshift.

The Control Room Supervisor (CRS) has received the scram report and entered EP-2 due to reactor water level.

Reactor water level is + 18 inches narrow range and stable.

The CRS has made NO assessments other than what was provided in the scram report.

NO Reactor Scram ONEP subsequent actions have been performed.

Which one of the following is proper with respect to procedure execution and hierarchy in this situation?

A.

Since reactor water level is back above +11.4 inches, EP-2 should be exited immediately. Then, the CRS should enter the Reactor Scram ONEP and direct subsequent actions.

B.

The CRS should complete the primary control loop in EP-2. The CRS should direct complimentary subsequent actions from the Reactor Scram ONEP concurrently during EP-2 execution.

C.

The CRS should complete the primary control loop in EP-2. Then, if NO emergency exists, he should direct performance of subsequent actions from the Reactor Scram ONEP only in the order listed in the ONEP.

D.

The CRS should complete the primary control loop in EP-2. The ACRO may insert IRMs without CRS direction or permission as soon as he completes all Reactor Scram ONEP immediate actions.

Answer: B Question Answer A is INCORRECT because to exit the Emergency Procedures a Comments: determination must be made per 05-S-01-EP-2 section 2.3 that an emergency NO longer exists and that is not stated in the answer. Answer B is CORRECT because it ensures control is established per EP-2 then allows other actions that are not in contradiction to the EPs to be performed. In addition, 02-S-01-2 allows ONEP subsequent actions to be performed out of sequence at the discretion of an SRO . Answer C is file://F:\SROExamRev3Final.htm 8/9/2005

View Exams Page 183 of 207 INCORRECT because subsequent actions of an ONEP are not required to be performed in order if an ON-Shift SRO authorizes out of order performance. Answer D is INCORRECT because the CRS gives the directions for action during the execution of the EPs and all other procedures are subordinate to the EPs. 10CFR 41.10/43.5 Image

The plant is in Mode 1.

Containment Spray A time delay relay E12-K93A has been declared inoperable due to it failing to actuate during an electrical surveillance and the relay has been removed for troubleshooting.

An alarm and status light are received on 1H13-P601 indicating CTMT SPRB SPARGER INL VLV E12-F028B control power fuses have blown.

What is the most limiting impact of these conditions regarding RHR Containment Spray?

Tech Specs and 02-S-01-17 Att II are provided.

A.

Containment Spray A will not automatically initiate; the inoperable channel must be placed into trip within 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> and E12-F028B restored within 7 days.

B.

Containment Spray A can be considered OPERABLE via manual initiation capability; E12-F028B must be restored within 7 days.

C.

Containment Spray A will not automatically initiate; Mode 3 must be entered within 20 hours2.314815e-4 days <br />0.00556 hours <br />3.306878e-5 weeks <br />7.61e-6 months <br />.

file://F:\SROExamRev3Final.htm 8/9/2005

View Exams Page 191 of 207 Answer: D Question This involves a safety function determination for instrumentation. 02-S-Comments: 01-17 says if a safety function determination involves instrumentation, take action per the instrumentation Technical Specification. Here, automatic initiation capability for containment spray has been lost due to a non-functional relay on Div 1 and a non-functional spray valve on Div 2.

The appropriate action would be TS 3.3.6.3 action B.1, which requires, after 1 hr, declaring both sprays inop. TS 3.6.1.7 requires, after 8 hours9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br />, entering a 12 hr shutdown statement for 2 inop sprays. Thus 1+8+12=21 which is action d. It would be inappropriate to declare both sprays inop immediately, as represented by answer c. All other answers are wrong since they state times other that 21 hrs.

EB QUESTION: 99 (1.0 Points)

A plant startup is in progress and all reactor recirc system indications are normal.

When Reactor Recirc Pumps are shifted to fast speed, the reactor operator reports:

The REACTOR PMP A SEAL STG FLO HI/LO alarm has annunciated.

Seal staging flow indicates higher than normal.

Reactor Recirc pump A seal cavity # 1 is 1050 psig.

Reactor Recirc pump B seal cavity # 2 is 1000 psig.

Indicated Reactor Recirc seal temperatures are lower than normal.

file://F:\SROExamRev3Final.htm 8/9/2005

View Exams Page 203 of 207 Based on this information, the SRO should enter procedure:

A.

05-1-02-III-3, Reduction in Recirculation System Flow Rate because of improper seal cavity differential pressures.

B.

04-1-01-B33-1, Reactor Recirculation System, because of improper seal cavity differential pressures.

C.

04-1-01-C11-1, Control Rod Hydraulic System, because of improper seal staging flow.

D.

04-1-01-B33-1, Reactor Recirculation System, because of lower than normal seal temperatures.

Answer: B Question This is an indication of a failure of Seal #1 due to the following RECIRC Comments: PMP A SEAL STG FLO HI/LO annunciator being in, seal staging flow indicating high, Seal # 2 pressure approaching Seal # 1 pressure and seal temperatures dropping. If there are signs of seal de-staging the Recirc pump is to be shifted back to slow speed to attempt to restage the seals then return its operation to fast speed. Even if the seals do not restage the pump may continue operation in fast speed allowing the plant to raise power with monitoring of the seals. Answer B is the correct answer. The procedure to be entered to downshift the recirc pumps to attempt to fix the seal staging. This is not a change in recirc flow requiring entry into the ONEP. This is a NEW question. 10CFR 41.10/43.5 Image
