KHU Steady State Frequency 16.8.5 16.8 ELECTRIC POWER SYSTEM 16.8.5 Keowee Hydro Unit (KHU) Steady State Frequency COMMITMENT Keowee Hydro Unit (KHU) Steady State Frequency shall be >!59.4 Hz and
< 61.8 Hz when isolated from the grid in emergency mode of operation.
APPLICABILITY: When KHU is OPERABLE.
ACTIONS CONDITION REQUIRED ACTION COMPLETION TIME A. KHU Steady State A.1 Enter applicable TS Immediately Frequency not met. Condition(s) and Required Actions for an inoperable KHU(s).
SURVEILLANCE REQUIREMENTS SURVEILLANCE FREQUENCY SR 16.8.5.1 Verify on an actual or simulated emergency 12 months actuation signal each KHU achieves steady state frequency > 59.4 Hz and < 61.8 Hz (>
127.3 rpm and < 132.5 rpm).
BACKGROUND Each KHU can initially be either idle or generating to the grid. If the KHU is idle when an emergency start signal is generated, the unit is required to be operating between 57 and 63 Hz within 23 seconds by Technical Specifications (TS). If the Unit is initially generating to the grid when the emergency start signal is generated, the Unit is disconnected from the grid, frequency increases as the governor responds to bring the frequency down to 60 Hz, and is connected to Oconee loads when the frequency is less than 66 Hz and decreasing. The frequency is further reduced as the Oconee switchgear is energized and various Oconee loads are started.
TS SR 3.8.1.9 requires frequency to be within 57 to 63 Hz in 23 seconds or less. Discussions with the NRC in 2000 led to issues with the frequency overshoot of KHU and compliance with TS SR 3.8.1.9. A need to update design calculations to include the transient voltage and 16.8.5-1 07/23/12 I
KHU Steady State Frequency 16.8.5 frequency effects during a KHU startup was identified. In October 2000, ONS Engineering studied the scope of updating various design calculations to include overshoot effects. The results of this study concluded that modifications should be implemented to reduce the overshoot. Plans were made to implement a digital governor modification as a solution to the overshoot TS compliance issue.
With the digital governor installation, the appropriate calculations were revised to reflect the 5%
overshoot conditions expected with the digital governor and were also analyzed to determine steady state frequency limits for Keowee. Acceptable steady state limits were determined to be
-1% to +3% nominal frequency (59.4 Hz to 61.8 Hz) and were established based on the effect of frequency variations on key mechanical safety systems. Small perturbations outside of the steady state criteria (-1% to +3%) due to expected load additions or removals are permitted.
However the transient peak values shall be within +/-5% frequency limits and of short time duration being no more than 10 seconds. This SLC addresses the steady state frequency requirements for those periods when Keowee is operating as an emergency power source for Oconee.
APPLICABLE SAFETY ANALYSIS The KHUs provide emergency power for Oconee Nuclear Station. The OPERABILITY of the KHU is required to ensure the OPERABILITY and the capability of the Emergency Power System. This SLC ensures that Keowee is capable of providing emergency power within acceptable limits.
APPLICABILITY The KHU steady state frequency is required to be within specified limits when the KHU is OPERABLE.
ACTIONS A.1 Condition A applies when the KHU governor steady state frequency is not met. Required Action A.1 requires the associated KHU be declared inoperable since the KHU is no longer capable of meeting design basis requirements.
SURVEILLANCE REQUIREMENTS SR 16.8.5.1 This surveillance verifies the KHUs steady state frequency to ensure key mechanical safety systems and equipment have adequate frequency for accident mitigation. Numerous mechanical calculations referenced in PIP 00-3229 (Ref. 5) established the 59.4 Hz to 61.8 Hz (127.3 rpm to 132.5 rpm) steady state frequency requirement. This surveillance is required to be performed every 12 months. The 12 month frequency for this SR is adequate based on the installation of an Out of Tolerance (OOT) statalarm which will alarm if frequency exceeds the
-1% to +3% nominal frequency limits. The 12 month frequency is consistent with KHU TS testing.

Keowee Lake Level 16.9.7 BASES:
Instrument error must be added to the absolute lake levels in this SLC if using a computer point to verify level (Ref. 1). Lake level can be determined manually at the Keowee Hydro intake structure, but measurement error must also be added when using manual methods (Ref. 1).
HPSW System Commitments:
With lake level below 793 ft, additional administrative controls are placed on HPSW pump alignment to prevent adversely affecting LPSW pump NPSH (ref. 2). The worst case configuration for LPSW pump NPSH is the simultaneous operation of the "A" LPSW Pump, "B" LPSW Pump, and "A" HPSW Pump and a postulated single failure of the "C" LPSW Pump.
This configuration is worst case because all operating pumps take suction from a common 36" supply header. At lake levels below 793 ft, adequate LPSW pump NPSH is maintained if the "B" HPSW pump is the first HPSW pump to start on low EWST level. With the "B" HPSW Pump switch in BASE, the pump starts upon EWST low level. With the "A" HPSW Pump switch in STANDBY, the pump starts upon EWST emergency low level.
With lake level below 793 ft and the "A" HPSW pump running or its switch in Base, Unit 1 and 2 are in a condition where the LPSW System is vulnerable to single failure. In this condition, all required Unit 1 and 2 LPSW pumps shall be verified OPERABLE immediately to ensure adequate LPSW pump NPSH. Lake Level must be restored to _> 793 ft within 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> (Required Action B.2.1) or the "A" HPSW Pump switch shall be placed in OFF or STANDBY within 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> (Required Action B.2.2).

If the Required Actions and associated Completion Times of Condition B or C are not met, all required LPSW pumps must be declared inoperable immediately.
With lake level below 791 ft, the "A" HPSW Pump must be declared inoperable and the applicable Condition of SLC 16.9.1 (Ref. 13) entered because the pump has inadequate NPSH during ECCW siphon flow mode. With lake level below 789 ft, the "B" HPSW Pump must be declared inoperable and the applicable Condition of SLC 16.9.1 (Ref. 13) entered because the pump has inadequate NPSH during ECCW siphon flow mode (Ref. 3).
16.9.7-6 07/23/12 I
Keowee Lake Level 16.9.7 LPSW System Commitments:
With lake level below 791 ft, the LPSW pumps could experience inadequate NPSH during ECCW siphon flow mode if a single failure causes the loss of one required LPSW pump. The lake level limit also accounts for a postulated pipe break at a normally open seismic boundary valve. For Unit 1 and 2, the NPSH analysis (Ref. 2, 9) assumes the "A" HPSW Pump is in STANDBY and the "B" HPSW Pump is in BASE. For Unit 3, the analysis (Ref. 2, 9) assumes one HPSW pump is in operation. If all required LPSW pumps are available, adequate NPSH is available. Thus the Unit 1&2 and Unit 3 LPSW System are unable to withstand a single failure at lake levels below 791 ft. In this Condition, all required LPSW pumps shall be verified OPERABLE immediately to ensure adequate LPSW pump NPSH. Required Action E.3 requires lake level be restored to > 791 ft within 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br />. If the Required Actions and associated Completion Times of Condition E are not met, all required LPSW pumps must be declared inoperable immediately.
WC System Commitments:
With lake level below 790 ft, the Chiller Condenser Service Water Pumps (CCSWPs) may be adversely affected because the potential exists for air to de-entrain during ECCW siphon flow mode (Ref. 4). Since the CCSWPs support the Chilled Water (WC) System, both WC trains must be declared inoperable.
CCW System Commitments:
With lake level below 793.7 ft, gravity induced reverse flow through the CCW discharge piping and through the Condensate Coolers cannot supply adequate flow to the suction of the LPSW pumps and SSF ASW pump. See SLC 16.9.11 for additional information. (Note that commitment c of SLC 16.9.11 is not required to be met at lake levels below 793.7 feet). The licensing basis for Oconee takes credit for the SSF to mitigate a Turbine Building Flood, and there is no commitment to meet single failure criteria. However, maintaining the capability for decay heat removal using LPSW can reduce overall plant risk for some flood scenarios. There is no commitment to maintain the lake level above 793.7 ft at all times. The PRA addresses the probability of lake levels below 793.7 ft, resulting in loss of gravity induced reverse flow capability. However, reducing the lake level below 793.7 ft changes the risk levels associated with equipment out of service. Therefore, commitment A is included as a means to ensure that the loss of gravity induced reverse flow capability is adequately addressed for equipment out of service, as required by the Maintenance Rule, 10 CFR 50.65, paragraph a(4).
If Keowee lake level is > 792 ft and at least one gravity induced reverse flow path through the Unit 2 Condensate Cooler is aligned and OPERABLE to supply the Unit 2 CCW inlet pipe, gravity induced reverse flow is a viable method for supplying the SSF service water pumps.
Refer to SLC 16.9.19 for additional information.
With lake level below 787 ft, all ECCW Siphon Headers aligned to the Radwaste Equipment Cooling System must be declared inoperable immediately due to potential air inleakage from non-seismic piping during ECCW siphon flow mode. Seismic boundary valves CCW-319 and CCW-320 shall be closed to maintain operability of the ECCW Siphon Headers (Ref. 5, 9).
16.9.7-7 07/23/12 1
Keowee Lake Level 16.9.7 With lake level below 786 ft, all ECCW Siphon Headers must be declared inoperable immediately because the ECCW test acceptance criteria would be invalid (Ref. 6).
Keowee Hydro Station Commitment:
With lake level below 787 ft, the water supply (for Keowee Hydro Station to provide emergency power to the overhead path at 42.8 MVA and the underground path at 22.35 MVA) could be inadequate for 7 days of continuous operation at these levels. Neither Keowee Hydro or Oconee Nuclear Station should be considered inoperable at this lake level. Keowee Hydro should not generate to the grid at lake levels below 787 ft in order to ensure ample water capacity for emergency power operation (Ref. 8).
Keowee Oil Storage Room Commitment:
Should lake level fall below 783 ft, the Keowee Oil Storage Room water spray system may not provide the required flow rates because the system is dependent on lake level for driving head.
For this reason, the spray system must be declared inoperable (Ref. 7).
Keowee Main Start-up Transformer Commitment:
Should lake level fall below 780 ft, the Keowee main Step up Transformer Mulsifyre system may not provide the required flow rates because the system is dependent upon lake level for driving head. For this reason, the Mulsifyre should be declared inoperable (Ref. 7).

Control Rod Program Verification 16.14.2 BASES The requirement(s) of this SLC section were relocated from CTS 3.5.2.2.b.6 and CTS 4.7.2 during the conversion to ITS.
Each control rod has a relative and an absolute position indicator system. The PLC serves to process inputs from the reed switch matrix at each CRDM P1 tube (for absolute signals), and relative position indication is created by the PLC by counting the number and direction of power pulses sent to the CRDM. Either relative or absolute position display is selectable at the PI Panel, and both signals are sent to the OAC. The OAC associates each CRDM number (1 through 69) with the core position to which it is assigned. In the event a rod assignment error is made in the PLC software or connectors in the cables leading to the control rod drive assemblies or to the control room meter bank (PI Panel) are improperly transposed upon reconnection, these errors and transpositions will be discovered by a comparative check.
The comparative check is performed by: (1) selecting a specific rod from one group (e.g., Rod 1 in Regulating Group 6), (2) noting that the program-approved core position for this rod of the group (assume the approved core position is No. 53), (3) exercising of the selected rod and (4) noting that the computer prints out both absolute and relative position response for the approval core position (assumed to be position No. 53) and that the proper meter responds in the control room display bank (assumed to be Rod 1 in Group 6) for both absolute and relative meter positions. This type of comparative check will not assure detection of improperly connected cables inside the reactor building. For these, it is necessary for a responsible person, other than the one doing the work, to verify by appropriate means that each cable has been matched to the proper control rod drive assembly.
