Q

What is the purpose of PPS?

A
  • Assure SAFDL AND pressurizer safety limits are not exceeded during an Anticipated Operational Occurrence
  • Redundant and independent to ensure
    • No single fault will cause an actuation
    • No single fault will cause a loss of safety function
  • 4 separate (train) sensing channels
  • 6 logic matrices that contain relays to trip RTSGs

Q

How does a loss of 2 or more PN buses affect PPS?

A
  • Loss of any 2 or more PN power supplies: Rx Trip
    • Also due to instruments losing power you will get a FULL ESFAS actuation. (Every signal except LOP)

Q

What happens in PPS if a single parameter exceeds its trip setpoint?

What actions are required and how long do you have?

A
  • Single parameter exceeding trip setpoint: No trip only alarms
    • If the instrument is determined to be bad causing this trip then we will bypass it. (New logic is now 2 out of 3 instead of 2 out of 4)
    • 1 hour time limit to get this channel bypassed

Q

What will happen in PPS if one parameter is bypassed in A train and its trip setpoint is exceeded in B train?

What actions are required and how long do you have to do it?

A
  • One parameter in bypass the same parameter has a trip on another channel: NO TRIP (Only 1 out of 3, needed 2 out of 3)
    • If this is also due to a failed instrument then within 1 hour 1 channel is placed in bypass and the other is tripped (this is done by I & C)

Q

What should be done to the signals associated with PPS A if PNA is lost?

A
  • ALL signals on that associated cabinet should be bypassed.
    • Since these are pushbuttons that stay depressed even though power is gone the bypasses will still work

Q

How does loss of a single PN bus affect the ESFAS portion of PPS?

A
  • Half leg trip on both A and B trains (same leg)
  • The bottom of the electrical circuit for initiation relays is basically “cross-connected” so you need contacts to open on both legs to cause a full actuation. (A SINGLE CONTACT GOING OPEN WILL NOT MOVE ANYTHING)
  • There is a fuse in the current return for each leg
    • IF this fuse were to blow then the associated relays of that leg will also de-energize causing an actuation of its associated components (half leg trips)

Q

What type of manual initiation is available from B05?

What configuration will ensure complete esfas actuation?

A
  • Manual initiation of each channel is available for each train from B05
    • However there is a catch: FOR A FULL ACTUATION YOU MUST TAKE MORE THAN ONE CHANNEL TO INITIATE TO HAVE AN ACTUATION. (Also the 2 MUST NOT be same train A&C/B&D)

Q

What would happen if an attempt to bypass the same parameter across multiple PPS channels was performed?

A
  • Bypassing Parameters on PPS Cabinets
    • There is a priority. YOU ARE NOT ABLE TO PLACE THE SAME PARAMETER IN BYPASS ON MULTIPLE CHANNELS
    • It will automatically ensure 2 channels aren’t bypassed on the same parameter by removing one of the parameters from bypass
    • Priority: A→B→C→D. So if “B” is already in bypass for a parameter and “A” bypass button is pushed “B” will come out of bypassed. The same relationship exists for “B” to “C” (“C” would “lose”)
    • The same priority is available for being able to place a channel in test

What is the PTTI(power trip test interlock) and what will it do?

A
  • PTTI (Power trip test interlock)
    • Will trip DNBR and LPD (with no pre-trip) if NI Calibration switches are not in OFF or in event of voltage problems
    • Only if the DNBR and LPD on that channel is not bypassed
47
Q

What will occur if the Linear Calibration switch on the Safety ex core drawer is placed in a position other than OPERATE?

A
  • Placing the Linear Calibration switch on the ex-core safety channel NI drawer to other than the OPERATE position will cause a channel Variable Overpower trip.
48
Q

What will occur if the Logarithmic calibrate switch on the Safety ex core drawer is placed in a position other than OPERATE?

    • Lights all three sections of the bistable status indicators on the ROM and similar indicators on the corresponding PPS cabinet BCP.
    • Releasing the TEST PB will extinguish only the BYPASS portion of the bistable status indicators.
  • Returns the white P (pretrip) and red T (trip) sections of the bistable indicators to their original state if the alarm or test condition has cleared.
    • Pre-trip and Trip lights will stay lit until this happens.
50
Q

What can occur if the Aux bldg vent condenser is allowed to overflow?

A

Aux Building HVAC

  • If the Aux Building Vent Condenser is allowed to overflow from either pump loss or flow path isolated the overflow will come out of aux building ventilation
51
Q

What do HAA-1 thru 6 and HAB-1 thru 6 do?

A
  • Separates ventilation into 2 sections. Below 100ft and 100ft and above
  • THERE IS NO OVERRIDE CAPABILITY FOR THESE DAMPERS
52
Q

What happens in the aux bldg hvac system at 3’6” water level in the AF pump room?

A
  • @ 3’6” high water level in the Aux Feed Pump Room there are 2 air operated dampers in EACH supply and exhaust duct.
    • 4 total 2 “A” train and 2 “B” train
      • These are powered by their respective PK busses
53
Q

What ensures there is negative pressure in the Aux bldg?

A
  • A SUPPLY AHU CANNOT BE STARTED unless an EXHAUST FAN IS ALREADY RUNNING
    • This is sensed by D/P across AFU fans
  • 2 SUPPLY AHU’s CANNOT BE RUNNING WITH JUST 1 AFU RUNNING
    • IF “A” AHU and “A” AFU are running and the “B” AHU is taking to start then the “A” AHU trips off to ensure just a 1 for 1 combo
      • This same pattern holds true if 2 “B” train units were running.
    • Here’s where it gets really silly
      • IF “A” AHU and “B” AFU are running and the “B” AHU is taken to start……it will not start
    • IF all 4 are running and a LOW D/P condition is sensed on the “B” AFU then the “A” AHU WILL TRIP
      • Same holds true for “A” AFU and “B” AHU
54
Q

What starts the respective charging rooms ACUs?

What is this room cooled by?

How is this ACU affected by a loss of air?

A
  • Charging Room ACU
    • Starts when the associated pump starts. Continues to run for 5 min after the pump is shutdown.
    • Cooled by normal chill water
    • Remember on a loss of air to the air coolers it fails to FULL COOLING
55
Q

How do the CEDM cabinet room ACUs operate and what happens on a startup/shutdown to WC valves?

A
  • CEDM Cabinet Room ACUs
    • WC valves open when the unit is started and close when the unit is stopped. Then controlled by a temp controller
56
Q

With regards to the essential pump room ACUs, when do they start and stop?

What exception exists for the AFA pump room?

A
  • All Motor Operated Pump Room ACUs start concurrent with a pump start and will run for 5 min after the pump is secured
  • AFA
    • ACU STARTS WHEN ONE OF THE BIG STEAM ADMISSION VALVES LEAVES IT’S FULLY CLOSED POSITION
    • Turns off: 5 min after BOTH Steam admission valves are fully closed.
57
Q

What starts teh E-PEN ACU and how is it secured?

A
  • E-PEN ACU
    • Will start on a SIAS or LOP must be manually secured at the local switchgear.
58
Q

How must manually starting ACUs be performed?

A

One must manually start EW, EC and SP before starting the ACU so that cooling is available.

59
Q

What is the TS limit for containment pressure during normal operations?

A
  • Tech Spec Limit for Containment Pressure
    • -0.3 psig to 2.5 psig
      • Corresponds to an indicated pressure of -0.3 psig to 1.8 psig
60
Q

What cools Cont normal ACUs and how are they operated?

A
  • Cooled by Normal Chill Water (WC!)
  • ACU’s take suction on the 120ft. and discharges to the 100ft and the 80ft
  • A & B or C & D ACUs operate in pairs
    • Each pair share a common discharge duct.
  • Class PG Load Center power
61
Q

What is the auto start feature with the Cont ACUs?

A
  • Fans will auto start 60 secs after a sensed low D/P as long as the control room switch is green flagged.
  • Amber light indicates an auto start. Like other amber lights it really is saying that the fan started somehow with the switch in the green flagged position
62
Q

What cools the CEDM ACUs?

What is its normal configuration and what is the capacity of the ACU?

A
  • Cooled by NC!
    • NC is applied to the cooling unit when it’s associated fans are ionstarted by a motor operated valve
  • ACU’s take suction through the cooling unit and discharge out of the top
    • 1 fan can handle the total heat load though 2 are usually running
  • Both ACU’s are supplied from a common suction.
  • Powered from Class Load Centers PG
63
Q

What is the auto start of the CEDM ACUs?

A
  • Standby Units will auto start on a low D/P @ 120 secs after low D/P
    • CEDM ACUs should always use the standby feature start CEDM to allow for the 120 secs for the fans to stop spinning in the reverse direction
64
Q

When should the CEDM ACUs be placed in operation?

What action is required if CEDM cooling is lost when RCS is > 300F?

A
  • ACUs must be in operation prior to >225F RCS temp
  • If CEDM cooling is lost and RCS Temp >300F then CEDM cooling must be restored or the CEDM must be de-energized w/in 40 minutes
65
Q

How do the CEDM and Cont normal ACUs operate during a SIAS?

During a LOP?

A
  • SIAS
    • Containment Normal & CEDM ACUs stop on a SIAS
      • May be overridden
    • Once the SIAS signal is RESET then the CR Operator must take the handswitch to STOP to reset the SX relay and allow for normal fan operation
  • LOP
    • Running Containment Normal and CEDM ACUs will load shed and then be restarted by the sequencer ~ 55 secs into the sequence
66
Q

How do the Rx cavity fans and Pzr normal fans operate?

A
  • Reactor Cavity Fans & Pressurizer Normal Cooling Fans
    • Powered by SIAS LOAD SHED PANELS
    • Both will auto start the opposite fan on a sensed low D/P
67
Q

How do the MSSS supply fans operate?

A
  • Normally 1 AHU and 1 Filter is running while the other is standby
  • Standby fan will auto start on low D/P
  • 2 exhaust fans are installed to remove heat from the MSSS 100’ and above.
    • Each fan takes suction on one side of the MSSS and therefore both are normally running.

prevents upender operation if carriage not properly positioned in upender

95
Q

What does the TM upender rotation/refueling interlock do?

A

prevents upender operation to vertical if RM or SFHM over upender

96
Q

What does the SFHM Hoist underload overload interlock do?

A

stops hoist, cleared by moving hoist inward, can bypass underload

97
Q

What does the SFHM Cable slack interlock do?

A

stops hoist to prevent winch damage due to drum over-rotation

98
Q

What does the SFHM Bridge/Trolley slow speed interlock do?

A

fuel on hoist and hoist not at up limit

99
Q

What does the SFHM travel limit do?

A

prevents fuel from being driven into SFP walls

100
Q

What does the SFHM Upender vertical interlock do?

A

prevents entry into transfer canal if upender is not vertical, can be bypassed

Not bypassed unless tube gate valve closed and carriage in CNMT

SM controls key

101
Q

What does the SFHM hoist up/down limit do?

A

max/min hoist travel limits reached

102
Q

What does the SFHM New Fuel Elevator interlock do?

A

prevents SFHM trolley from entering transfer canal unless elevator at down limit

103
Q

What does TRM T3.9.103 restrict?

A

loads > 2000 lbs prohibited from travelling over fuel in SFP

104
Q

Who is required for fuel movement in the following locations:

Cont.

FB

CR

A
  • Containment
    • Refueling SRO
    • Machine Operator
  • Fuel Building
    • Fuel Handling Supervisor
    • Machine Operator
  • Control Room
    • Reactor Engineering
    • Licensed RO or SRO
105
Q

A
  • Altering the movement sequence of fuel
    • Agreement between Reactor Engineering and Refueling SRO. Final confirmation given by CRS or SM for verbal approval.
106
Q

What actions shluld be taken if communications are lost while moving fuel?

A
  • If communications are lost: SUSPEND FUEL MOVEMENT
107
Q

What are the COLR requirements for fuel movement?

What should be done if a possible boron dilution event has occurred?

A
  • Minimum Boron Concentration: >/= 3000 ppm to ensure a keff = 0.95
  • If there is a question of a possible dilution event or boron concentration < 3000 ppm then perform the following:
    • STOP CORE ALTERATIONS
    • SUSPEND POSITIVE REACTIVITY ADDITIONS
    • INITIATE EMERGENCY BORATION IMMEDIATELY
108
Q

What defines Core Alterations?

A
  • Defined as: movement or manipulation of any fuel, sources, or reactivity control components w/in the reactor vessel with the vessel head removed and fuel in the vessel.
    • Examples:
      • CEA Coupling/Uncoupling
      • UGS Removal/Installation
      • Fuel/CEA/Souce Movement
        • Exception: First or last bundle in the core
      • Fuel Realignment After Fuel Position Verification
      • UGS Lift Rig CEA Support Plate Raised or Lowered W/CEAs LATCHED
109
Q
