design flow to each S/G.
B. The operator must manually initiate AFAS (Aux. Feed Actuation Signal) due to the

Q

Given the following conditions:
• Plant is at full power when a Loss of All Offsite Power occurs
• Only DIG 1-2 starts and begins load sequencing.
• Reactor trips, but the Main Turbine does NOT automatically trip.
• S/G levels quickly lower to approximately 32% before the NCO manually trips
the Main Turbine.

flow indicates 0 gpm to each S/G.
·A loss of Preferred AC Bus Y-20 occurred concurrent with the auto reactor trip.

A. No action is required, since AFW Pump P-8C will start and deliver design flow to
each S/G.
B. The operator must manually initiate AFAS (Aux. Feed Actuation Signal) due to the
Loss of Offsite Power.
C. The operator must manually start AFW Pump P-8C since P-8B has failed to start on
low S/G level.

• AFAS automatically actuated.
• AFW Pump P-8A is running and delivering 165 gpm to each S/G.
• P-8C is in AUTO, and not running.
• ‘A’ S/G level is 38%, ‘B’ S/G level is 26%.
Then, flow to ‘A’ S/G (via FIC-0749) is manually reduced to §ill gpm and flow to ‘B’ S/G
(via FIC-0727) is manually reduced to 95 gpm.
Which one of the following describes the expected response of AFW Pump P-8C, AND
the reason for that response?
A. Not start automatically, since P-8A is running and total AFW flow is above 165 gpm.

B.Not start automatically, since P-8A is running and both S/G levels are greater than
the AFAS setpoint.

C. Start automatically, since one S/G level is outside of the normal band.

D.Start automatically, since AFW flow is less than the minimum required.

A

D.Start automatically, since AFW flow is less than the minimum required.
