I Software Safety Plan Revision: I Page: 6 of 47 Date: 10/13/11

1. Purpose This Software Safety Plan (SSP or Plan) addresses software safety concerns during the development of application software for the four Protection Sets of the Diablo Canyon Power Plant (DCPP) Process Protection System (PPS). The SSP will address the process and activities intended to improve software safety throughout the PPS software development lifecycle.

The software safety plan for the Diablo Canyon PPS Replacement is written based on the guidance provided by ISG-6, IEEE Std 1228-1994 and NUREG/CR-6101.

Role of software in PPS and its impacts on the operation of the system:

1) The PPS consists of four Protection Sets, each set comprising an Invensys Tricon portion, Westinghouse ALS portion, and Maintenance Workstation. The Invensys Tricon portion includes three VI0 Tricon chassis (one safety-related Main Chassis, one safety-related Remote Expansion (RXM) Chassis, and one nonsafety-related RXM chassis). T he Tricon VI0 Protection Set application software is rated Software Integrity Level (SIL) 4, per IEEE Standard 1012 Annex B.

The replacement PPS application software is assigned Software Integrity Level (SIL) 4

[IEEE 1012-1998 Reference 3.1.4] because it is directly associated with nuclear-safety-related Reactor Trip and Engineered Safety Features functions [Reference 2.3.1.2].

2) In the normal plant operation, Invensys Tricon portion of each Protection Set performs the following fundamental functions:
a. Acquiring input data from instrumentation sensors monitoring the status of Diablo Canyon nuclear power plant variables such as temperature, pressure, and level.
b. Comparing the plant variables against setpoints.
c. Sending trip signals to the plant protection system if operating limits are exceeded and other output to the recorder, alarm and indication system.

The Tricon Protection Set application program, known as the TSAP, performs the above safety functions. The TSAP is programmed by the ND engineer to manage the Tricon hardware configuration for each chassis and to control Tricon behavior. The application software (TSAP) is the focal point of the Software Safety Plan because it has a SIL-4 rating and plays a critical role in Tricon operations.

The following safety goals were extracted from PG&E Design Inputs and applicable regulatory guidance, including IEEE 1228, BTP 7-14, and NUREG/CR-6430. The safety goals are expected to be achieved by adherence to the plan:

1) Software failures will not compromise or degrade the nuclear reactor protection system.
2) Software provides the reliable and accurate trip signal.
3) Software responds promptly to a change in process parameter.
4) Software processes the sensor data as intended and sends output data as expected to recorders, indicators, and plant computers for display or alarming purpose.

Title:

ISoftwvare Safety Plan Revision: I Page: 7 of 47 Date: I 10/3/11

5) Application software-related hazards will be mitigated or their risks will be reduced to an acceptable level.

The acceptable risks and safety objectives are:

1) A software-caused failure in a single instrument channel will not adversely affect the output of the redundant instrument channels.
2) Run-time errors in the Maintenance Workstation (MWS) or the plant computer in the Control Room will not affect the safety function of the Tricon application software.
3) The software will be able to handle bad input due to signal calibration error or sensor/transmitter failures.
4) Diversity in the software test design (i.e., a unique test specification for each Protection Set TSAP) for the redundant application software safety functions will be utilized to provide an additional barrier against common-cause application software defects.
5) Run-time errors in calculation functions (diagnostics such as divide-by-zero) shall be alarmed to operators and the erroneous value shall not be used in subsequent functions.
6) Failures in the MWS associated with a Protection Set may degrade another non-safety part of the same Protection Set but the safety function of the Tricon application software is not affected (e.g. a loss-of-view failure will not prevent a safety trip).

1.1 Scope The scope of this Software Safety Plan is limited to addressing the safety concerns of the Invensys-developed software portion of the PPS Replacement. SIL-4 application software (TSAP) running on the Invensys Tricon hardware will be assessed in the context of its associated hardware, environment, internal and external interfaces. See Figure 1 below for the scope of the Plan.

However, there are exceptions to the scope of the Plan:

I ) The software safety concerns regarding the application software (TSAP) apply to the project development and testing phase. The project post-development safety concerns (e.g., PPS Protection Set(s) installation, maintenance, operations support, and retirement) are beyond the scope of this Plan. This limitation is stipulated by the contractual arrangement with PG&E as specified in the Purchase Order [Reference 2.3.1.1 ].

Software safety concerns during installation, maintenance, operation, and retirement are out of scope of this Plan. It is licensee's responsibility to develop the SSP for those phases.

2) The Tricon firmware plays a vital role in the Tricon operations, and ultimately affect the performance and functionality of the PPS Replacement. However, the Tricon firmware is not within the scope of this project because the qualification and safety aspects of the V1O Tricon platform are addressed in the VIO Tricon Topical Report, 7286-545-1, as part of the NRC safety evaluation.

3) With regard to Secure Development & Operating Environment (SDOE), NTX-SER 14 [Reference 2.3.2.13], and also 993754-1-913, RG 1.152 Conformance Report

[Reference 2.3.2.7], explain Invensys Operations Management compliance to RG 1.152.

The former is for the VI 0 Tricon safety evaluation, the latter for the PPS Replacement Project specifically.

The safety aspects of the following software and firmware will be excluded from the scope of this Plan though they are internal units of each Protection Set:

1) Westinghouse Advanced Logic System (ALS) hardware.
2) Maintenance Workstation.

ALS and Maintenance Workstation will interface with Tricon within the Protection Set. Safety concerns during the Installation, Operations, Maintenance, and Retirement phases of the system life cycle are the responsibility of the Licensee, PG&E.
