The following are examples:8 (a) Reactor pressure exceeds limiting safety-system setting value without automatic trip. (b) Inability to trip and insert sufficient control rods to achieve the technical specification shut down margin. (c) Failure of the reactor protective system to complete the required protective action once initi ated. Note: Instrument drift discovered as a result of testing need not be reported under this item but may be report able under items 2.a(5),2.a(6), or 2.b(l) below. (2) Operation of the unit or affected systems when any parameter or operation subject to a limiting condition for operation is less conservative than the least conservative aspect of the limiting condition for opera tion established in the technical specifications. The fol lowing are examples: (a) Shutdown not begun within the speci fied time when unidentified reactor coolant leakage ex ceeds the technical specifications limit. (b) Failure of a system other than the systems subject to limiting safety-system settings (see 2.a(l) above) to actuate, or actuation of such a system at a monitored parameter value less conservative than that listed in the technical specifications for the system. (c) Operation with unacceptable contain ment leak rate type B or C test results. (d) System cooldown at a rate exceeding the technical specifications limit. Note: If specified action is taken when a system is found to be operating between the most conservative and the least conservative aspects of a limiting condition for operation listed in the technical specifications, the limiting condition for operation is not considered to have been violated and need not be reported under this item, but it may be reportable under item 2.b(2) below.
