Answer / bhola shnaker
there are 2 to 6 numbers of safety valves (SVs) on the boiler.
Around 2 Nos on Drum, of one high and one low setpoint.
Around 2 Nos on Superheater Steam Line of one high and one low setpoint.(but less then Drum SV setpoint, to avoid starvation of SH main steam line)
around 2 Nos on reheater line (if reheater is provided)
Apart from it 1 No of EMRV on the HP superheater line, setpoints below that of Safety valves of the lines.
Also we have Relief valves on he HP econimiser, which acts as a Over protection valve (against Pressure)
Remember SVs are Differnt from Relief valves, as RVs are used on liquid whereas SVs are used on Steam line.

DCS marshaling Cabinet Power supply can be replace during plant running time? Answer Yes it is possible. I am talking about the controller and cards power supply modules. They are always redundant and connected through diode so that if one power supply fails the other can take the charge immediately.so it is possible to replace one of them in running plant if the other one is healthy. MY question is how switching done.
