Subject: [Pwrrm] Request for Information: Automatic Rod withdrawal



At Surry Power Station, we had an event where our control rods automatically stepped out 2 steps due to an incorrect Tave-Tref deviation indication. There has been talk of disabling automatic rod withdrawal here at the station and I wanted to know what other plants have done regarding this system. Has your plant disabled the Automatic rod withdrawal function? If not, why not? Are there plans to do so?
