acceptable test procedures for use during power operation. The review of test and calibration provisions should be coordinated with the Technical Specifications Branch (TSB) to confirm that the system design supports the types of testing required by the technical specifications. The system design should also support the compensatory actions required by technical specifications when limiting conditions for operation are not met. Typically, the design should allow for tripping or bypass of individual functions in each protection system channel. 12. Section 4.11 — Channel Bypass and Removal from Operations The review of bypass and removal from operations should be coordinated with TSB to confirm that the provisions for this bypass are consistent with the required actions of the proposed plant technical specifications. 13. Section 4.12 — Operating Bypass The requirement for automatic removal of operational bypasses means that the reactor operator shall have no role in such removal. The operator may take action to prevent the unnecessary initiation of a protective action. 14. Section 4.13 — Indication of Bypass Guidance on bypasses and inoperable status indication is provided in Reg. Guide 1.47, "Bypassed and Inoperable Status Indication for Nuclear Power Plant Safety System." 15. Section 4.14 — Access to Means for Bypassing Administrative control is acceptable to ensure that access to the means for bypassing is limited to qualified plant personnel and that permission of the control room operator is obtained to gain access. 16. Section 4.15 — Multiple Setpoints The Staff interpretation of "positive means" is that automatic action is provided to ensure that the more restrictive setpoint is used when required. BTP HICB-3 provides additional guidance on multiple setpoints used to allow operation with reactor coolant pumps out of service. Rev. 4 — June 1997 SRP 7.1-B-9 17.
