How is startup accomplished after a trip?

The startup procedure after a trip involves a process of resetting the system to ensure that it is safe and ready for operation again. This typically includes evaluating the conditions that caused the trip and making necessary adjustments or repairs. During this reset phase, controls and alarms may be cleared, and the system is configured to transition back to its normal operating state.

While it’s true that satisfying permissives is essential before restarting equipment, this action usually follows the initial reset process. The operator initiating a restart is also a part of the procedure after ensuring all safety measures are adhered to, and computer systems indeed may assist in the startup, but they do not independently re-initiate the process without human oversight. The overall process emphasizes the importance of resetting the system first to establish a safe environment for subsequent operations.
