  • do we need additional valves, check valves, bypasses, whatever?
  • do we need Dataforth voltage attenuators on coil tap channels?
  • do we need active isolation of coil tap channels, etc?
  • should we monitor all circuit breakers?
  • should we monitor all relays?
  • what is the effect of B field on sensors/relays? should some instrumentation be relocated?
  • do we need new flow sensors, or should they be relocated?
