1、ASME/ANS RA-S INTERPRETATIONSASME/ANS RA-S INTERPRETATIONSVOLUME 3Replies to Technical InquiriesJuly 2008 Through June 2013FOREWORDEach interpretation has been reviewed for applicability to the edition and supplements listedfor that inquiry. In some instances, a review of the interpretation revealed

In these cases, a revised interpretation is presented bearing the originalinterpretation number with the suffix R and the original file number with an asterisk.ASME procedures provide for reconsideration of these interpretations when or if additionalinfo

17、nts?Reply: No, a normal controlled shutdown would not present the same challenges as a tripfrom full power. This event is more appropriate for a transition model and outside of the scopeof this Standard. If the manual trip was prompted by conditions other than the normal shutdownprocedure that could

18、 occur at full power, it should be counted. This guidance is consistent withIE-A5(a) IE-A7(a) in RA-Sb2013 and IE-C4 IE-C6 in RA-Sb2013.Interpretation: 1-6RSubject: ASME RA-Sb2005, Section 4, Risk Assessment Technical Requirements;ASME/ANS RA-Sb2013, Part 2, Table 2-2.1-2Date Issued: June 6, 2013Fil
