On-Line Monitoring of Instrument Channel Performance in Nuclear Power Plant Using PEANO

Conference Fantoni, Paolo F ; Hoffmann, Mario ; Shankar, Ramesh ; ...

On-Line monitoring evaluates instrument channel performance by assessing its consistency with other plant indications. Industry and EPRI experience at several plants has shown this overall approach to be very effective in identifying instrument channels that are exhibiting degrading or inconsistent performance characteristics. On-Line monitoring of instrument channels provides information about the condition of the monitored channels through accurate, more frequent monitoring of each channel's performance over time. This type of performance monitoring is a methodology that offers an alternate approach to traditional time-directed calibration. On-line monitoring of these channels can provide an assessment of instrument performance and provide a basismore »« less
Human-system interface design review guideline -- Review software and user`s guide: Final report. Revision 1, Volume 3

Technical Report

NUREG-0700, Revision 1, provides human factors engineering (HFE) guidance to the US Nuclear Regulatory Commission staff for its: (1) review of the human system interface (HSI) design submittals prepared by licensees or applications for a license or design certification of commercial nuclear power plants, and (2) performance of HSI reviews that could be undertaken as part of an inspection or other type of regulatory review involving HSI design or incidents involving human performance. The guidance consists of a review process and HFE guidelines. The document describes those aspects of the HSI design review process that are important to the identificationmore »« less

On-Line Monitoring: Technical Specification for Instruments

Technical Report Davis, E

The report describes content and scope of Technical Specification changes in support of on-line monitoring of calibration of instrumentation. The uncertainty of the multivariate state estimation technique is addressed with respect to safety-related setpoints. Validation and verification of the associated software is addressed.
Template for the submission of revised risk-based technical specifications. Final report

Technical Report Schneider, R E ; Jaquith, S C ; Smith, B H ; ...

In 1993, the Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) began development of the Probabilistic Safety Assessment (PSA) Applications Guide (Report TR 105396) to help utilities that own and operate nuclear power plants to use their PSAs to improve plant safety and resource allocation. In December of 1995 EPRI published Guidelines for Risk-Based Technical Specifications Change Request Submittals (EPRI Report TR 105876) to supplement the PSA Applications Guide by providing a framework for preparing documentation for submission to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) regarding requests for changes to nuclear plant Technical Specifications. The basic purpose of this report is to servemore »« less
