During a refueling outage, the fuel assemblies were reconfigured to reduce the radial power peak at the center of the core while maintaining the same rated thermal power. Excore power range detectors were calibrated at 50 percent power just prior to the outage.

Changes in applied detector voltage have little effect on detector output. Geiger-Mueller tubes are thinner than other radiation detector types. Any incident radiation event causing primary ionization results in ionization of the entire detector gas volume. Geiger-Mueller tubes are operated at relatively low detector voltages, allowing detection of low energy radiation. An y A. OGF - Polling 10. A reactor is shut down at 100 cps in the source range when a loss of coolant accident occurs.
