DC Sources Operating B 3.8.4 RIVER BEND B 3.8-50 Revision No. 3-2 B 3.8 ELECTRICAL POWER SYSTEMS B 3.8.4 DC SourcesOperating BASES BACKGROUND The station DC electrical power system provides the AC emergency power system with control power. It also provides both motive and control power to selected safety related equipment. As required by 10 CFR 50, Appendix A, GDC 17 (Ref. 1), the DC electrical power system is designed to have sufficient independence, redundancy, and testability to perform its safety functions, assuming a single failure. The DC electrical power system also conforms to the requirements of Regulatory Guide 1.6 (Ref. 2) and IEEE-308 (Ref. 3).
The 125 VDC electrical power system consists of three independent Class 1E DC electrical power subsystems, Divisions I, II, and III. Each subsystem consists of a battery, associated battery charger(s), and all the associated control equipment and interconnecting cabling.
During normal operation, the DC loads are powered from the battery chargers with the batteries floating on the system. In case of loss of normal power to the battery charger, the DC loads are automatically powered from the Engineered Safety Feature (ESF) batteries.
Each of the Division I and II electrical power subsystems provides the control power for its associated Class 1E AC power load group, 4.16 kV switchgear, and 480 V load centers. Also, these DC subsystems provide DC electrical power to the inverters, which in turn power the AC vital buses. The Division III DC electrical power subsystem provides DC motive and control power as required for the High Pressure Core Spray (HPCS) System diesel generator (DG) set control and protection.
The DC power distribution system is described in more detail in Bases for LCO 3.8.9, "Distribution SystemsOperating," and LCO 3.8.10, "Distribution SystemsShutdown."
Each Division I and II battery has adequate storage capacity to carry the required load continuously for at least 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> as discussed in the USAR, Section 8.3.2 (Ref. 4).
(continued)
DC Sources Operating B 3.8.4 RIVER BEND B 3.8-51 Revision No. 5-5 BASES BACKGROUND The Division III battery has adequate storage to carry the required load (continued) continuously for at least 2 hours2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br /> (Ref. 4).
Each DC battery subsystem is separately housed in a ventilated room apart from its charger and distribution centers. Each subsystem is located in an area separated physically and electrically from the other subsystems to ensure that a single failure in one subsystem does not cause a failure in a redundant subsystem. There is no sharing between redundant Class 1E subsystems such as batteries, battery chargers, or distribution panels.
The batteries for a DC electrical power subsystem are sized to produce required capacity at 80% of nameplate rating while maintaining system voltage.
Each battery charger of Division I and II DC electrical power subsystems has ample power output capacity for the steady state operation of connected loads required during normal operation, while at the same time maintaining its battery bank fully charged. Each battery charger has sufficient capacity to restore the battery bank from the design minimum charge to its fully charged state within 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> while supplying normal steady state loads (Ref. 4).
The battery charger of Division III DC electrical power subsystem has sufficient capacity to restore the battery bank from the design minimum charge to its fully charged state in 8 hours9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br /> while supplying normal steady state loads (Ref. 4).
APPLICABLE The initial conditions of Design Basis Accident (DBA) and transient SAFETY ANALYSES analyses in the USAR, Chapter 6 (Ref. 5) and Chapter 15 (Ref. 6),
assume that ESF systems are OPERABLE. The DC electrical power system provides normal and emergency DC electrical power for the DGs, emergency auxiliaries, and control and switching during all MODES of operation.
The OPERABILITY of the DC subsystems is consistent with the initial assumptions of the accident analyses and is based upon meeting the design basis of the unit. This includes maintaining DC sources OPERABLE during accident conditions in the event of:
(continued)
DC Sources Operating B 3.8.4 RIVER BEND B 3.8-52 Revision No. 0 BASES APPLICABLE
- a.
An assumed loss of all offsite AC power or of all onsite AC power; SAFETY ANALYSES and (continued)
- b.
A worst case single failure.
The DC sources satisfy Criterion 3 of the NRC Policy Statement.
LCO The DC electrical power subsystems, each subsystem consisting of one battery, one battery charger, and the corresponding control equipment and interconnecting cabling supplying power to the associated bus within the divisions, are required to be OPERABLE to ensure the availability of the required power to shut down the reactor and maintain it in a safe condition after an anticipated operational occurrence (AOO) or a postulated DBA. Loss of any DC electrical power subsystem does not prevent the minimum safety function from being performed (Ref. 4).
APPLICABILITY The DC electrical power sources are required to be OPERABLE in MODES 1, 2, and 3 to ensure safe unit operation and to ensure that:
- a.
Acceptable fuel design limits and reactor coolant pressure boundary limits are not exceeded as a result of AOOs or abnormal transients; and
- b.
Adequate core cooling is provided, and containment integrity and other vital functions are maintained in the event of a postulated DBA.
The DC electrical power requirements for MODES 4 and 5 are addressed in the Bases for LCO 3.8.5, "DC SourcesShutdown."
ACTIONS A.1 Condition A represents one division with a loss of ability to completely respond to an event, and a potential loss of ability to remain energized during normal operation. It is, therefore, imperative that the operator's attention focus on stabilizing the unit, minimizing the potential for complete (continued)
DC Sources Operating B 3.8.4 RIVER BEND B 3.8-53 Revision No. 0 BASES ACTIONS A.1 (continued) loss of DC power to the affected division. The 2 hour2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br /> limit is consistent with the allowed time for an inoperable DC distribution system division.
If one of the required Division I or II DC electrical power subsystems is inoperable (e.g., inoperable battery, inoperable battery charger, or inoperable battery charger and associated inoperable battery), the remaining DC electrical power subsystems have the capacity to support a safe shutdown and to mitigate an accident condition. Since a subsequent worst case single failure could, however, result in the loss of minimum necessary DC electrical subsystems, continued power operation should not exceed 2 hours2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br />. The 2 hour2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br /> Completion Time is based on Regulatory Guide 1.93 (Ref. 7) and reflects a reasonable time to assess unit status as a function of the inoperable DC electrical power subsystem and, if the DC electrical power subsystem is not restored to OPERABLE status, to prepare to effect an orderly and safe unit shutdown.
B.1 With the Division III DC electrical power subsystem inoperable, the HPCS and Standby Service Water System pump 2C may be incapable of performing their intended functions and must be immediately declared inoperable. This declaration also requires entry into applicable Conditions and Required Actions of LCO 3.5.1, "ECCS Operating," and LCO 3.7.1, "Standby Service Water (SSW) System and Ultimate Heat Sink (UHS)."
C.1 and C.2 If the DC electrical power subsystem cannot be restored to OPERABLE status within the associated Completion Time, the unit must be brought to a MODE in which the LCO does not apply. To achieve this status, the plant must be brought to at least MODE 3 within 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br /> and to MODE 4 within 36 hours4.166667e-4 days <br />0.01 hours <br />5.952381e-5 weeks <br />1.3698e-5 months <br />. The allowed Completion Times are reasonable, based on operating experience, to reach the required plant (continued)
DC Sources Operating B 3.8.4 RIVER BEND B 3.8-54 Revision No. 1 BASES ACTIONS C.1 and C.2 (continued) conditions from full power conditions in an orderly manner and without challenging plant systems. The Completion Time to bring the unit to MODE 4 is consistent with the time required in Regulatory Guide 1.93 (Ref. 7).
SURVEILLANCE SR 3.8.4.1 REQUIREMENTS Verifying battery terminal voltage while on float charge helps to ensure the effectiveness of the charging system and the ability of the batteries to perform their intended function. Float charge is the condition in which the charger is supplying the continuous charge required to overcome the internal losses of a battery (or battery cell) and maintain the battery (or battery cell) in a fully charged state. The voltage requirements are based on the nominal design voltage of the battery and are consistent with the initial voltages assumed in the battery sizing calculations. The 7 day Frequency is consistent with manufacturer's recommendations and IEEE-450 (Ref. 8).
SR 3.8.4.2 Visual inspection to detect corrosion of the battery cells and connections, or measurement of the resistance of each inter-cell, inter-rack, inter-tier, and terminal connection, provides an indication of physical damage or abnormal deterioration that could potentially degrade battery performance. Only those terminals and connectors which have visible corrosion must be measured for connection resistance.
The Surveillance Frequency for these inspections, which can detect conditions that can cause power losses due to resistance heating, is 92 days. This Frequency is considered acceptable based on operating experience related to detecting corrosion trends.
SR 3.8.4.3 Visual inspection of the battery cells, cell plates, and battery racks provides an indication of physical damage or abnormal deterioration that could potentially degrade battery performance.
(continued)
DC Sources Operating B 3.8.4 RIVER BEND B 3.8-55 Revision No. 0 BASES SURVEILLANCE SR 3.8.4.3 (continued)
REQUIREMENTS The 18 month Frequency of the Surveillance is based on engineering judgement, taking into consideration the desired unit conditions to perform the Surveillance. Operating experience has shown that these components usually pass the SR when performed at the 18 month Frequency. Therefore, the Frequency was concluded to be acceptable from a reliability standpoint.
SR 3.8.4.4 and SR 3.8.4.5 Visual inspection and resistance measurements of inter-cell, inter-rack, inter-tier, and terminal connections provides an indication of physical damage or abnormal deterioration that could indicate degraded battery condition. The anti-corrosion material is used to ensure good electrical connections and to reduce terminal deterioration. The visual inspection for corrosion is not intended to require removal of and inspection under each terminal connection.
The removal of visible corrosion is a preventive maintenance SR. The presence of visible corrosion does not necessarily represent a failure of this SR, provided visible corrosion is removed during performance of this Surveillance.
The 18 month Frequency of the Surveillance is based on engineering judgement, taking into consideration the desired unit conditions to perform the Surveillance. Operating experience has shown that these components usually pass the SR when performed at the 18 month Frequency. Therefore, the Frequency was concluded to be acceptable from a reliability standpoint.
SR 3.8.4.6 Battery charger capability requirements are based on the design capacity of the chargers (Ref. 4). According to Regulatory Guide 1.32 (Ref. 9), the battery charger supply is required to be based on the largest combined demands of the various steady state loads and the charging capacity to restore the battery from the design minimum charge state to (continued)
DC Sources Operating B 3.8.4 RIVER BEND B 3.8-56 Revision No. 103 BASES SURVEILLANCE SR 3.8.4.6 (continued)
REQUIREMENTS the fully charged state, irrespective of the status of the unit during these demand occurrences. The minimum required amperes and duration ensure that these requirements can be satisfied. Momentary transients that are not attributable to charger performance do not invalidate this test.
The Surveillance Frequency is acceptable, given the unit conditions required to perform the test and the other administrative controls existing to ensure adequate charger performance during these 18 month intervals.
In addition, this Frequency is intended to be consistent with expected fuel cycle lengths.
SR 3.8.4.7 A battery service test is a special test of the battery's capability, as found, to satisfy the design requirements (battery duty cycle) of the DC electrical power system. The discharge rate and test length correspond to the design duty cycle requirements as specified in Reference 4.
The Surveillance Frequency of 18 months is consistent with the recommendations of Regulatory Guide 1.32 (Ref. 9) and Regulatory Guide 1.129 (Ref. 10), which state that the battery service test should be performed during refueling operations or at some other outage, with intervals between tests not to exceed 18 months.
This SR is modified by two Notes. Note 1 allows the once per 60 months performance of SR 3.8.4.8 in lieu of SR 3.8.4.7. This substitution is acceptable because the battery performance test (SR 3.8.4.8) represents a more severe test of battery capacity than the battery service test (SR 3.8.4.7). Because both the battery service test and the battery performance test involve battery capacity determination, complete battery replacement invalidates the previous performance of these surveillance requirements. In addition to requiring the re-performance of both of these surveillance tests prior to declaring the battery OPERABLE, complete battery replacement also resets the 60 month time period used for substitution of the service test by the performance test. For this reason, substitution is acceptable for performance testing conducted within the first two years of service of a new battery as required by Reference 8.
The reason for Note 2 is that performing the Surveillance would remove a required DC electrical power subsystem from service, perturb the electrical distribution system, and challenge safety systems. Credit may be taken for unplanned events that satisfy the Surveillance. Examples of unplanned events may include:
- 1)
Unexpected operational events which cause the equipment to perform the function specified by this Surveillance, for which adequate documentation of the required performance is available; and (continued)
DC Sources Operating B 3.8.4 RIVER BEND B 3.8-57 Revision No. 4-6 BASES SURVEILLANCE SR 3.8.4.7 (continued)
REQUIREMENTS
- 2)
Post corrective maintenance testing that requires performance of this Surveillance in order to restore the component to OPERABLE, provided the maintenance was required, or performed in conjunction with maintenance required to maintain OPERABILITY or reliability.
SR 3.8.4.8 A battery performance test is a test of constant current capacity of a battery, normally done in the as found condition, after having been in service, to detect any change in the capacity determined by the acceptance test. The test is intended to determine overall battery degradation due to age and usage.
The acceptance criteria for this Surveillance is consistent with IEEE-450 (Ref. 8) and IEEE-485 (Ref. 11). These references recommend that the battery be replaced if its capacity is below 80% of the manufacturer's rating. A capacity of 80% shows that the battery rate of deterioration is increasing, even if there is ample capacity to meet the load requirements.
The Surveillance Frequency for this test is normally 60 months. If the battery shows degradation, or if the battery has reached 85% of its expected life the Surveillance Frequency is reduced to 18 months.
Degradation is indicated, according to IEEE-450 (Ref. 8), when the battery capacity drops by more than 10% of rated capacity from its average on previous tests, or when it is 10% below the manufacturer's rating. These Frequencies are based on the recommendations in IEEE-450 (Ref. 8).
This SR is modified by a Note. The reason for the Note is that performing the Surveillance would remove a required DC electrical power subsystem from service, perturb the electrical distribution system, and challenge safety systems. Credit may be taken for unplanned events that satisfy the Surveillance. Examples of unplanned events may include:
