ENCLOSURE 1 4.1.9 Auxiliary Feedwater Pumps and Valves Applicability: Applies to the motor driven auxiliary feedwater pump, the turbine driven auxiliary feedwater pump, and auxiliary feedwater valves for MODES 1, 2 and 3.

Objective:

To ensure the reliability of the auxiliary feedwater system.

Specification:

A. Each auxiliary feedwater pump shall be demonstrated OPERABLE by testing each pump in accordance with Section XI of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code and applicable Addenda as required by 10 CFR 50.55a(g), except where specific written relief has been granted by the NRC pursuant to 10 CFR 50.55a(g)(6)(i).

B. At least once per 31 days when the auxiliary feedwater system is required to be operable, an inspection shall be made to verify that normally open manual valves in the auxiliary feedwater system suction piping and the I

emergency path from the auxiliary feedwater pumps to the steam generators that could interrupt all AFW flow are locked open.

C. Each auxiliary feedwater pump shall be demonstrated OPERABLE at least once per 18 months during shutdown by:

1. Verifying that each automatic valve in the flow path actuates to its correct position upon receipt of each auxiliary feedwater actuation test signal.
2.

Verifying that each auxiliary feedwater pump starts as designed automatically upon receipt of each auxiliary feedwater actuation test signal.

D. At least once per 18 months, all normally closed manual valves in the alternate auxiliary feedwater system suction line shall be demonstrated operable.

E. When the reactor coolant system pressure remains less than 500 psig for a period longer than thirty (30) days, a flow test shall be performed to verify the emergency flow path from the condensate storage tank to each steam generator, using the motor driven auxiliary feedwater pump prior to increasing reactor coolant system pressure above 500 psig. The flow test shall be conducted with the auxiliary feedwater system valves in their emergency alignment.

As soon as steam becomes available, the steam driven auxiliary feedwater pump shall be similarly tested.

-2 Basis:

The OPERABILITY of the auxiliary feedwater. system ensures that the Reactor Coolant System can be cooled down to less than 350oF from normal operating conditions in the event of a total loss of offsite power.

The electric driven auxiliary feedwater pump and the steam driven auxiliary feedwater pump are both capable of delivering a total feedwater flow of 165 gpm at a pressure of 1015 psig to the entrance of the steam generators.

This capacity is sufficient to ensure that adequate feedwater flow is available to remove decay heat and reduce the Reactor Coolant System temperature to less than 350oF when the residual Heat Removal System may be placed into operation.

ENCLOSURE 3 AUXILIARY FEEDWATER FLOW INDICATION SAN ONOFRE UNIT 1 SYSTEM DESCRIPTION San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station Unit 1 is provided with two means of verifying auxiliary feedwater flow.

Steam Generator Wide Range Level Indication A wide range level indicator for each steam generator permits observation of level over essentially the full height of the steam generator shell.

The wide-range level indicator channels are independent of the control range level channels.

Each steam generator is provided with a wide range level transnitter (LT-450, 451, 452) with instrument taps on the steam generators located at elevations 20'-3 9/16" and 46'-10 5/16" providing a measurement range of 318 3/4 inches.

This provides the capability to monitor the level from 252 5/8 inches below to 65 7/8 inches above the steam generator feedwater inlet centerline. Control room level indicators (LI-450A, 451A, 452A) have a scale range of 400 inches.

Auxiliary Feedwater Flow Indication Each steam generator is capable of being independently fed auxiliary feedwater.

A high and low range flow transmitter (FTH-3453, 3454, 3455 and FTL-3453, 3454, 3455) monitor flow to each steam generator and provide control room flow indication (FI-3453, 3454, 3455).

Each of the three flow indicators has the capability to monitor a range of 0 to 300 gpm. The combined maximum capacity of the two auxiliary feedwater purrps at expected steam generator pressure is 440 gpm with each steam generator auxiliary feedwater control valve set to supply less than 150 gpm which corresponds to the midrange position of the flow indicator.

SYSTEM SEPARATION Electrical Separation The steam generator wide range level indication system is powered from steam generator auxiliary rack R-10 which receives power from Vital Bus Number 1 which receives power from Battery Bank Number 1.

The auxiliary feedwater flow indication system is powered from Vital Bus Number 5 which receives power from Battery Bank Number 2.

-2 Physical Separation The steam generator wide range level indication system power and instrumentation cables are routed in cable trays outside the containment sphere. The cables assoiated with LT-450 are routed separately from the cables associated with LT-451 and LT-452 which are routed in the same tray system. These trays, starting at the containment penetraton, cross the space between the sphere and the turbine building at about elevation 29 feet.

Inside the turbine building the cable tray system associated with LT-450 enters the switchgear and cable spreading room along side the cable tray system associated with LT-451 and LT-452.

The auxiliary feedwater flow indication system power and instrumentation cables are routed entirely in conduit.

The cables associated with all the flow transmitters share the same conduit routing system.

The flow transmitters are located to the west of the fuel storage building with the entire conduit system located outside the containment sphere.

The conduit runs to the west of the ventilation equipment building and turns east to enter the contol building after passing between the containment sphere and turbine building space at about elevation 40 feet.

SUMMARY

The ultimate power supplies for the wide range steam generator level indication system and the auxiliary feedwater flow indication system are Battery Bank Number 1 and Battery Bank Number 2 respectively which are electrically independent.

The routing of the power and indication cables for the wide range steam generator level indication system and the auxiliary feedwater flow indication system are physically independent in all areas.
