14.0 INTRODUCTION

This chapter is historical. It is recognized that although the verb tense is sometimes "future", the initial test program was completed. This chapter will not be updated to correct tense, references, or editorial errors. This chapter provides information on the initial test program for structures, systems, components, and design features for both the nuclear portion of the plant and the balance of the plant. The information addresses major phases of the test program, including selected acceptance tests, preoperational tests, initial fuel loading and initial criticality, low-power tests, and power-ascension tests. The technical aspects of the initial test program are described in sufficient detail to show that the test program will adequately verify the functional requirements of plant structures, systems, and components. The sequence of testing is such that the safety of the plant is not dependent on untested structures, systems, or components. Also described are the measures taken to ensure that (1) the initial test program will be accomplished with adequate numbers of qualified personnel, (2) adequate administrative controls are established to govern the initial test program, (3) the test program is used, to the extent practicable, to train and familiarize the plant operating and technical staff in the operation of the facility, and (4) the adequacy of plant operating and emergency procedures are verified during the period of the initial test program. The Startup Manual is the basic administrative document which implements the provisions of this chapter. Detailed implementation instructions are provided in Startup administrative directives.

CPS/USAR CHAPTER 14 14.1-1 REV. 11, JANUARY 2005 14.1 SPECIFIC INFORMATION TO BE INCLUDED IN PRELIMINARY SAFETY ANALYSIS REPORTS The initial test program overall test objectives and general prerequisites were previously provided in the PSAR. The technical aspects of the initial test program are described in Section 14.2 in sufficient detail to show that the test program adequately verifies the functional requirements of plant structures, systems, and co mponents so that the safety of the plant will not be dependent on untested structures, systems, or components.

CPS/USAR CHAPTER 14 14.2-1 REV. 11, JANUARY 2005 14.2 INITIAL TEST PROGRAM 14.2.1 Summary of Test Program and Objectives The initial test program covers the testing of structures, systems, and components. The overall objectives of the initial test program are: a. to ensure that construction is complete;

b. to demonstrate the capability of structures, components, and systems to meet performance requirements to satisfy design criteria; c. to effect fuel loading in a safe manner;
d. to demonstrate, where practical, that the plant is capable of withstanding anticipated transients and postulated accidents; e. to evaluate and demonstrate, to the extent possible, plant operating procedures and to provide assurance that the Plant Staff is knowledgeable about the plant and procedures and is fully prepared to operate the facility in a safe manner; and f. to bring the plant to rated capacity and sustained power operation. The test program is divided into four phases covering the period from construction through warranty tests of the plant. These phases represent activities within a system and are not chronologically based for the entire plant. On any given day during the test program, some systems may be in the Construction Phase, others may be in the Checkout and Initial Operation Phase, and still others may be undergoing Preoperational or Acceptance Tests. Startup Tests begin with fuel load and continue through final acceptance of the plant. 14.2.1.1 Construction Phase The Construction Phase is that period during which structures and systems are being erected and tests or checks are performed to assure the adequacy of contractor installation, material, and workmanship prior to turning equipment over to Illinois Power Company (IP). Tests conducted during the Construction Phase are primarily tests which do not involve energization of permanent plant equipment. When the tests, checks, and services performed during the Construction Phase are complete, the equipment is turned over to Illinois Power Company so that subsequent testing and operation may begin. Baldwin Associates, the Constructor, is responsible for managing and performing the Construction Tests while Illinois Power Company performs a surveillance function during this phase. Hydrostatic testing of ASME Section III piping and in some cases flushing of this piping will be conducted during the Construction Phase. Baldwin Associates will maintain overall responsibility for all ASME Section III code requirements and IP will act in a formal role as a "subcontractor" to BA. ASME Section III piping and components are not turned over to IP until after acceptance of pressure test results by Baldwin Associates.

CPS/USAR CHAPTER 14 14.2-2 REV. 11, JANUARY 2005 14.2.1.2 Checkout and Initial Operation Phase The Checkout and Initial Operation (C&IO) Phase is that period during which checkout and testing is normally completed as a prerequisite to Preoperational or Acceptance Tests. Tests will include, but not be limited to, initial equipment energization, flushing and cleaning, hydrostatic testing of non-ASME Section III piping, calibration of instrumentation, electrical wiring and equipment tests, valve testing, and initial operation of equipment and systems.

Completion of this phase will assure that the system is ready for the Preoperational or

Acceptance Test. The Illinois Power Company Startup Group has the primary responsibility for managing and executing this phase. The IP Plant Staff, IP Nuclear Station Engineering, IP Project Management, Baldwin Associates, General Electric, Sargent & Lundy, vendors, and consultants will provide assistance as necessary. 14.2.1.3 Preoperational Phase The Preoperational Phase is that period during which Preoperational and Acceptance Tests are performed. These tests, in general, verify the operational performance of equipment on a system or subsystem basis, including where applicable, backup or alternate methods of system operation and system failure modes. Preoperational tests are performed on systems or subsystems that are designed to perform nuclear safety functions. Similar tests are performed on non-safety related systems and are defined as Acceptance tests. Where systems with overall functions of a non-safety related nature have specific components, (such as containment isolation valves) , which are of concern to safety, those Acceptance Tests are described in Section 14.2.12.3. Preoperational and Acceptance tests are similar in scope, however the administrative processing of these tests is different. Testing during this phase verifies that systems are capable of operating in a safe and efficient manner compatible with the system design bases. These tests also establish baseline data for equipment and system performance which may be used for comparison with future tests to

determine equipment or system degradation. Concurrently, the Plant Staff will operate equipment and systems thus providing them the opportunity to become knowledgeable about the plant and the procedures to be used for actual operation. The plant operating procedures are evaluated to the extent possible during this phase. Maintenance during this phase is the responsibility of the Plant Staff. The IP Startup Group retains responsibility for test administration and coordination during this phase, and provides technical direction to the Plant Staff in the performance of Preoperational and Acceptance Tests. 14.2.1.4 Startup Phase The Startup Phase begins with preparations for fuel loading and extends through warranty tests designed to verify safe and satisfactory integrated plant operation. This phase is subdivided into four parts: 1) fuel loading and open vessel tests; 2) initial heating to rated temperature and pressure; 3) testing from rated temperature and pressure to 100% of rated output, and 4) warranty demonstrations. Startup Tests are conducted to verify the performance of equipment under actual operating conditions. These tests al so verify interrelated system performance and CPS/USAR CHAPTER 14 14.2-3 REV. 11, JANUARY 2005 overall reactor and station operation and control. Systems and components which cannot be checked out fully during the Pre-operational Phase are tested during the Startup Phase. In the Startup Phase, the Plant Staff assumes overall responsibility for plant operations. The Facility Review Group exercises test procedure review and recommended approval responsibilities beginning with Power Plant Manager approval for initial fuel load. During this phase, reactor operator and senior reactor operator licenses must be held by the required number of personnel on each shift as described in Section 13.1. During the Startup Phase, the IP Startup Group will write and prepare test procedures, coordinate tests and prepare and analyze test results. The Startup Group will also coordinate the interface, where required, with General Electric, Baldwin Associates, Sargent & Lundy, various vendors, and other groups within Illinois Power Company. The Startup personnel will coordinate test performance with the Shift Manager. 14.2.1.5 Startup Staff Experience (Previously located in USAR Section 13.1.3.3)

The education, training, and commensurate experience for persons who conducted or supervised pre-operational and startup testing are described in the Project Position on Regulatory Guide 1.8 in Chapter 1. Table 14.2-6 describes the startup staff's certification levels. Figure 14.2-1 shows the pre-operational training schedule for key staff personnel. 14.2.2 Organization and Staffing Sargent & Lundy is the Architect-Engineer for the Clinton Power Station. General Electric Company is the Nuclear Steam Supply System (NSSS) Vendor, and Baldwin Associates the Constructor. All of these organizations plus various other vendors, contractors and consultants will be involved to varying degrees in each phase of the test program. Overall test program coordination was the responsibility of the IP Startup Group. 14.2.2.1 Illinois Power Company Organization The Illinois Power Company organizations involved in planning, construction, testing and operation of the Clinton Power Station were depicted in FSAR Figure 17.2-1. To assure that the Startup Program is conducted in an efficient and timely manner, it was directed by the IP Startup Group which plans, executes, and documents the startup activities occurring between the construction phase and completion of warranty tests of the station. The Startup Group is also involved in scheduling, test definition, system boundary definition, and other activities that affect construction phase testing. The Startup Group will include individuals assigned from various organizations and discplines within and outside Illinois Power Company. For matters relating to the Initial Test Program, all assigned individuals are considered a part of the Startup Group and are responsible to the Manager - Startup. Technical assistance is provided by personnel not directly assigned to the CPS/USAR CHAPTER 14 14.2-4 REV. 11, JANUARY 2005 Startup Group but who are knowledgeable in a specific area or are associated with other aspects of the Clinton Power Station activities.

Plant Manager. 14.2.3.2 Test Procedure Content and Format Test procedure format is standardized to the extent possible for each application within the Test Program. The format used for preoperational, acceptance and startup tests is as follows: 1. Approval Cover Sheet The Approval Cover Sheet shall contain the title of the procedure which is descriptive of the nature of the test. The Approval Cover Sheet shall include a revision number, and indicate approval status.

2. Objectives This section shall clearly and concisely state the purpose of the test. This section also specifies the general method to be used to accomplish the stated

objectives.

CPS/USAR CHAPTER 14 14.2-9 REV. 11, JANUARY 2005 3. Acceptance Criteria This section shall clearly identify the standards against which the success or failure of the test is judged. In some cases, qualitative criteria is given and in other cases quantitative values are designated as acceptance criteria.

4. References This section includes the primary references used to prepare the test procedures. 5. Prerequisites This section shall identify those independent action or procedures which shall be completed prior to conducting the test, and shall include a list of any special equipment, such as measuring and test equipment needed for the test. 6. Initial Conditions This section shall list those conditions which must be satisfied just prior to commencement of testing. When appropriate, this shall include the configuration and operating status of components within the system undergoing testing.

CPS/USAR CHAPTER 14 14.2-10 REV. 11, JANUARY 2005

11. Appendices This section provides additional information necessary to the performance of the test. Included are supporting procedures, check-off list, graphs, drawings, valve lineup or other appropriate information. 14.2.4 Conduct of Test Program Administrative control of the Clinton Power Station initial test program is promulgated by the use of procedures throughout. Adherence to the program as delineated in administrative and test procedures assures that equipment is testable, the appropriate tests are performed, and the results are satisfactory. Each phase of the test program as it pertains to a system is sequenced such that completion of one phase fulfills most of the prerequisites for the next. Construction Phase Responsibilities and controls for testing safety-related equipment during this phase are delineated in the Baldwin Associates' Project Procedure Manual and Quality Assurance Manual.

Written procedures conforming to the requirements of these manuals include objectives, prerequisites, test methods, and results documentation. Testing is subject to audit per the established Baldwin Associates' Quality Assurance program. Test results are available to Illinois Power Company for review. Turnover to Illinois Power Company Subsequent to completion of construction and construction testing of a defined system, formal turnover from Baldwin Associates to Illinois Power Company is effected. Turnover is by procedure which, when complete, assures all parties that checkout and initial operation phase efforts may be undertaken. Turnover effects the transfer of jurisdictional control of the designated equipment to the Illinois Power Company Startup Group. Turnover documentation defines the scope of the equipment to be turned over, defines the status of said equipment, indicates that official copies of completed tests, records, data, inspection reports and other documentation for the equipment being turned over are entered in the Document/Records System, and provides for any other software relevant to the equipment being turned over. A listing of outstanding construction incompletions and other items to be resolved subsequent to turnover are included. After turnover, responsibility for operation, maintenance, tagging, and testing rests with IP. Area turnovers are made from Baldwin Associates to Illinois Power Company as necessary for occupancy, or when a significant portion of the systems in an area have been turned over.

Checkout and Initial Operation Phase C&IO test is administered and performed using approved procedures. C&IO test are normally prerequisites to preoperational or acceptance test performance. Documentation of C&IO test results are reviewed and approved prior to preoperational or acceptance testing.

Preoperational Test Phase During the preoperational phase procedures are implemented such that a section of a test cannot be performed until the prerequisites to that section have been verified to be complete.

CPS/USAR CHAPTER 14 14.2-11 REV. 11, JANUARY 2005 Preoperational and acceptance tests must be released for performance by the Manager - Startup. This mechanism offers additional assurance that the system is ready for testing and that the procedure to be used is current.

Startup Test Phase The Plant Staff assumes overall responsibility for plant operation beginning with the Startup Phase. Approval for fuel load will be forthcoming after a review of the test program. The Facility Review Group shall review the test results as a minimum on each power plateau during the startup test phase prior to recommending further power testing. Power plateaus consist of each of the following related test conditions (see Figure 14.2.6): a. Open vessel b. Heat up to rated temperature and pressure c. Test condition 1

d. Test conditions 2 and 3
e. Test conditions 4, 5, and 6
f. Warranty demonstration Additionally, the Facility Review Group will review the prerequisites of planned tests, as specified in the individual test descriptions of Section 14.2.12.2. The Power Plant Manager approves continuation of testing. Prerequisites applicable to a particular startup test will be specified in that test and verified prior to performance of the Startup Test. Each operating shift will have a required complement of licensed senior and reactor operators who are responsible for operation of the unit during

Startup Testing.

Test Release The mechanism used to authorize the performance of a test is the test release. With the exception of Generic Tests, no test shall be performed without a test release. A test release ensures that the approved test procedure has been evaluated against the as-built system and current plant conditions before authorization is given to commence testing. The review also ascertains that test data required as a prerequisite to performance of a test or change in power test plateau has been evaluated and approved. Generic tests are not required to be released for performance since a specific component is turned over from the constructor ready to be checked out. 14.2.4.1 Field Problem Report (FPR)

The Field Problem Report provides a means for the Startup Group to identify a design question or problem. The FPR is routed to the Nuclear Station Engineering Department - Startup Engineering for disposition. NSED will initiate design modifications as required. Retesting CPS/USAR CHAPTER 14 14.2-12 REV. 11, JANUARY 2005 required as a result of a design modification is accomplished using approved procedures and controls in the same manner as previously described testing.

14.2.4.2 Maintenance Corrective maintenance performed on equipment under the IP jurisdictional control is initiated and administered by the use of work requests. Work requests are reviewed by responsible parties prior to and subsequent to the performance of maintenance. Retesting requirements are tracked until the retest is completed. Preventative Maintenance (PM) performed on equipment under IP jurisdictional control is controlled and administered by utilizing an automated PM System. PM actions are reviewed by responsible parties prior to and subsequent to the performance of PM. Items which fail the PM criteria are corrected using Work Requests. 14.2.4.3 Performance of Tests Test conduct is governed by the Startup Manual with additional detail provided by Startup administrative directives. All testing is accomplished by written procedure. Changes to the scope or intent of procedures are reviewed and approved by the individuals or groups that perform those functions for the original procedure. Any test procedure changes shall be approved and completed prior to approval of test results. 14.2.5 Review, Evaluation, and Approval of Test Results Construction Phase The responsibility for documenting and reviewing safety-related testing lies with the Baldwin Associates' Manager of Quality Control and/or the Manager of Technical Services and the IP Project Management Organization. Checkout and Initial Operation Phase Test results obtained during this phase are subject to an evaluation to determine whether test performance is accurately and completely documented, the test data is on proper forms, required data is supplied, test results satisfy the stated acceptance criteria, and that all incomplete items are clearly and properly identified. Hydrostatic test procedure test results for ASME Section III piping are reviewed by the Startup Group, approved by the Manager - Startup and provided to Baldwin Associates for acceptance. Other checkout and initial operating phase test results are reviewed by the Startup Group and the Quality Assurance Department.

Approval of results is the responsibility of the Manager - Startup.

Should test results prove unacceptable, the cause is determined and corrective action is initiated per Startup administrative directives.

CPS/USAR CHAPTER 14 14.2-13 REV. 11, JANUARY 2005 Test results of other Checkout and Initial Operation phase tests are reviewed by the Startup Group and the Quality Assurance Department. Approval of results is the responsibility of the

Manager - Startup. Should test results prove unacceptable, the cause is determined and corrective action is initiated per Startup administrative directives.

Preoperational Phase Preoperational Test Procedure results are reviewed by the Startup Group, and Quality Assurance Department, Nuclear Station Engineering Department, Plant Staff, and Sargent &

Lundy. General Electric provides reviews as described in 14.2.2.4.1. Approval is the responsibility of the Manager - Startup. Acceptance Test Procedure Results are reviewed by Startup Group, Quality Assurance Department, Nuclear Station Engineering Department, and Plant Staff. Approval is the responsibility of the Manager - Startup.

Certain Acceptance Tests have been determined to be of concern to safety. These Acceptance Tests are identified in section 14.2.12.3. For these Acceptance Tests, review is provided by Startup Group, Plant Staff, the Quality Assurance Department, Nuclear Station Engineering Department, and Sargent & Lundy. General Electric provides reviews as described in 14.2.2.4.1. Approval is the responsibility of the Manager - Startup. Should test results prove un acceptable, the cause is determined and corrective action is initiated per Startup administrative directive.

Startup Phase Startup phase results are evaluated by the Startup Group, Quality Assurance Department, Nuclear Station Engineering Department, Plant Staff, and Sargent & Lundy. General Electric provides reviews as described in 14.2.2.4.1. Approval is the responsibility of the Power Plant

Manager. Should test results prove unacceptable, the cause is determined and corrective action is initiated per Startup administrative directive.

Retests When the cause of unacceptable test results has been resolved, a retest is performed covering the portion of the original test in question. Plant modifications and maintenance are reviewed to ensure that previous test results have not been invalidated by such work and retests are utilized as necessary. Retests will be accomplished per a Startup administrative directive. 14.2.6 Test Records Completed test records are filed in the CPS Central File.

CPS/USAR CHAPTER 14 14.2-14 REV. 11, JANUARY 2005 14.2.7 Conformance of Test Programs with Regulatory Guides Table 14.2-1 contains a list of Regulatory Guides used in the development of the Initial Test Program. The program complies with the Regulatory Guides, with exceptions as described in Section 1.8. 14.2.8 Utilization of Reactor Operating and Testing Experiences in Development of Test Program The Clinton Power Station BWR-6 reactor plant is the latest stage in the evolutionary development of the BWR product line. General Electric factors information from experience with more than 25 operating BWR plants into its design and testing programs. Available information on operating experience, including reportable occurrences at operating power reactors, will be used appropriately in the development and execution of the test procedures. 14.2.9 Trial Use of Plant Operating and Emergency Procedures The schedule for the development of plant procedures is contained in Section 13.5.

Plant procedures, which include both operating and emergency procedures, are used to the extent possible by: 1. Utilizing them for establishing initial system conditions. 2. Establishing conditions for systems supporting a test.

3. Establishing conditions for retests.
4. Operation of systems on a day-to-day basis during the test program. 5. Performance of selected procedures for the specific purpose of Plant Staff familiarization. 14.2.10 Initial Fuel Loading and Initial Criticality Fuel Loading and initial criticality are conducted in accordance with approved written procedures after all prerequisite tests are satisfactorily completed and the operating license has been

issued. 14.2.10.1 Pre-Fuel Load Verification Prior to NRC approval for fuel loading, the plant must be verified ready to load fuel by accomplishing the following steps. 14.2.10.1.1 Cold Functional Testing Cold functional testing is the integrated operation of various plant systems prior to fuel loading. The intent of this testing is to observe unexpected operational problems of a hardware or procedural nature and provide an opportunity for Plant Staff familiarization with system operating characteristics and procedures.

CPS/USAR CHAPTER 14 14.2-15 REV. 11, JANUARY 2005 Integrated systems operation takes place during various preoperational tests and during the integrated flush of systems connected directly and indirectly to the reactor. 14.2.10.1.2 Routine Surveillance Testing There will be intervals of various lengths between the completion of specific preoperational tests and routine operation of the subject systems. The surveillance program undertaken to satisfy the requirements for the Technical Specifications will be instituted prior to fuel loading to ensure that routine checks are current at fuel loading and through subsequent plant operation. 14.2.10.2 Startup Checklists Detailed lists of items that must be complete will be compiled and the items will be verified for completion just prior to fuel load and at significant milestones such as heatup, opening MSIV's and power operation. 14.2.10.3 Initial Fuel Loading Fuel loading requires the movement of the full core complement of assemblies from the fuel pool to the core, with each assembly identified by number before being placed in the correct coordinate position. The procedure controlling this movement is arranged so that shutdown margin and subcritical checks are made at predetermined intervals throughout the loading, thus ensuring safe loading increments. Normal in-vessel neutron monitors provide continuous visual indication of count rate and subcriticality check as loading progresses. They also allow the recording of the core flux level as each assembly is added with the exception of the first sixteen bundles. A complete check is made of the fully loaded core to ascertain that all assemblies are properly installed, correctly oriented, and are occupying designated positions. 14.2.10.4 Zero Power Level Tests At this point in the Initial Test Program a number of tests are conducted which are best described as initial zero power level tests. Chemical and radiochemical tests have been made in order to check the quality of the reactor water before fuel is loaded, and to establish base and background levels which will be required to facilitate later analysis and instrument calibrations. Plant and site radiation surveys are made at specific locations for later comparison with the values obtained at the subsequent operating power levels. Shutdown margin checks are repeated for the fully loaded core, and criticality is achieved with the prescribed rod sequence, data being recorded for each rod withdrawn. Each rod drive is subjected to scram and performance testing. The initial setting of the Intermediate Range Monitors (IRMs) is at maximum gain or at the value of gain used during the preoperational test. 14.2.10.5 Initial Heatup to Rated Temperature and Pressure Nuclear heat up follows the satisfactory completion of the fuel loading and zero power level tests. Further checks are made of coolant chemistry together with radiation surveys at the selected plant locations. Four control rods are scram-timed with normal accumulator pressure for continuous monitoring at intermediate and rated reactor pressures. Control rod sequences are further investigated in CPS/USAR CHAPTER 14 14.2-16 REV. 11, JANUARY 2005 order to obtain rod pattern versus temperature relationships. The process computer checkout continues as more process variables become available for input. The Reactor Core Isolation Cooling (RCIC) System will undergo controlled starts at low reactor pressure and at rated conditions, with testing in the quick-start mode at 1000 psig. Correlations are obtained between reactor vessel temperatures at several locations and the values of other process variables as heatup continues. The movements of NSSS piping, mainly as a function of thermal expansion, are recorded for comparison with design data. An intermediate calibration of the IRM and APRM is made using coolant temperature rise data during nuclear heatup. 14.2.10.6 Power Testing From 25 Percent to 100 Percent of Rated Output The power testing phase comprises the following tests, many of which are repeated several times at different test levels. Reference should be made to Table 14.2-4 for the probable order of execution for the full series. The power-flow map shown in Figure 14.2-6 describes the startup test conditions. While a certain basis order of testing is maintained relative to power ascension, there is, nevertheless, considerable flexibility in the test sequence at a particular power level which may be used whenever it becomes operationally expedient. In no instance, however, is nuclear safety compromised. 1. Coolant chemistry test and radiation surveys are made at each specified test level in order to assure a safe and efficient power increase. 2. Selected CRDs are scram-time tested at various power levels to provide correlation with the initial data. 3. Deleted (in Rev 0) 4. Following the first reasonably accurate heat balance (25 percent power) the IRMs are reset. 5. At each power plateau (refer to Subsection 14.2.4), the LPRMs are calibrated.

6. The APRMs are calibrated initially at each new power level and following LPRM calibration. 7. Completion of the process computer checkout is made for all variables, and the various options are compared with alternate calculational methods as soon as significant power levels are available. 8. Further tests of the RCIC System are made with and without injection into the reactor pressure vessel. 9. Collection of data from the system expansion tests is completed for those piping systems which had not previously reached full operating temperatures. 10. Core performance evaluations are made at all test points above the ten percent power level and for selected flow transient conditions; the work involves the determination of core thermal power, maximum linear heat generation rate (MLHGR), maximum average planar linear heat generation rate (MAPLHGR),

and the Minimum Critical Power Ratio (MCPR).

CPS/USAR CHAPTER 14 14.2-17 REV. 11, JANUARY 2005 11. Overall plant stability in relation to minor perturbations is shown by the following group of tests which are made at all test points: a. Pressure regulator setpoint change

b. Water level setpoint change c. Turbine valve surveillance d. Recirculation flow step change The first two tests require that the changes made should approximate as closely as possible a step change in demand, while for the next test individual main turbine control, stop and bypass valves are manually cycled. The remaining test

is performed to properly adjust the control loop of the recirculation system. For all of these tests the plant performance is monitored by recording the transient behavior of numerous process variables, the one of principal interest being neutron flux. Other imposed transients are produced by step changes in demand core flow, simulating loss of a feedwater heater and simulating failure of the operating pressure regulator to permit takeover by the backup regulator. Table 14.2-4 indicates the power and flow levels at which all these stability tests are performed. 12. The category of major plant transients includes full closure of all the main steam isolation valves, turbine trip and generator load rejection, loss of offsite power, tripping a feedwater pump and several trips of the recirculation pumps. The plant transient behavior is recorded for each test and the results shall be compared with the acceptance criteria and the predicted design performance. Table 14.2-4 shows the operating test conditions for the major plant transients. 13. A test is made of the relief valves in which leaktightness and general operability are demonstrated. 14. At specified power levels the jet pump flow instrumentation is calibrated. 15. The as-built characteristics of the recirculation system are investigated as soon as operating conditions permit full core flow. 16. The local control loop performance, based on the drive pump, jet pumps and control equipment, is checked. 17. Individual CRD scram times are determined in conjunction with the performance of a planned reactor scram. Scram times for control rods not fully withdrawn during the planned reactor scram (up to a maximum of 32 control rods) are either exempted based on analysis or tested individually before reaching 40% power. 14.2.11 Test Program Schedule Figure 14.2-4 represents the tentative Startup Schedule for Clinton Power Station, Unit 1. The Startup Schedule depicts testing to be performed from the time a system is turned over to IP by Baldwin Associates to completion of the test program. As the test program proceeds the CPS/USAR CHAPTER 14 14.2-18 REV. 11, JANUARY 2005 Startup Schedule will be optimized to take into account actual progress that is inconsistent with the schedule. Updated schedules will be distributed as needed. Approved preoperational test procedures will be available for examination by the NRC approximately 60 days prior to the scheduled performance of the test. Procedures relating to fuel loading, startup phase testing, and supporting activities will be available for examination by the NRC not less than 60 days prior to the scheduled fuel load date. 14.2.12 Individual Test Description 14.2.12.1 Preoperational Test Procedures The following test descriptions are provided for each individual preoperational test that will be conducted. During the final construction phase, it may be necessary to modify preoperational test methods as operating and preoperational test procedures are developed. Consequently, methods described in the following descriptions are general, not specific. Actual test procedures will, of course, be more detailed and will not be limited in scope to what is contained in these descriptions. When phrases such as "per design, design specifications, consistent with design intent, as designed, etc." are used in the acceptance criteria, that information is taken from the following sources: General Electric Design Specifications General Electric Design Specifications Data Sheets General Electric Test Specifications General Electric Instrument Setpoint Data Sheets Sargent & Lundy Design Criteria Sargent & Lundy System Descriptions

Sargent & Lundy Electrical Schematics

Sargent & Lundy Instrument Data Sheets Sargent & Lundy P&ID's Vendor Manuals Supplied by General Electric or Sargent & Lundy CPS-FSAR Technical Specifications The specific documents used in the preparation of each test are listed in the reference section of that test procedure. The tests will demonstrate that the installed equipment and systems perform within the limits of these specifications. Table 14.2-2 provides a listing of the preoperational tests. Testing of safety-related instrumentation and control systems begins with the calibration of instruments at the component level soon after turnover from the contractor. Safety-related setpoints are set for the first time during this activity. Soon after the calibration of all instruments on the instrument loop is complete, a loop calibration is performed. During this activity, the setpoints are again verified. Any substantial drift in the safety-related setpoint will be identified during this loop test. Prior to the performance of the Preoperational Test (PTP), installed instrumentation from which quantitative data is to be taken during the performance of the PTP, will be recalibrated as CPS/USAR CHAPTER 14 14.2-19 REV. 11, JANUARY 2005 required by the Startup Group. The preoperational test will demonstrate proper operation of the system. Any substantial drift in safety-related setpoints should, therefore, be identified during the performance of the PTP. Following successful completion of the PTP, the sy stem is normally turned over to the Operations Department. Surveillance testing and preventative maintenance will be performed by the Operations Department on safety-related instrumentation to the extent necessary and at the frequency necessary to insure that safety-related setpoint drift is minimized. In summary, safety-related setpoints will be verified directly or indirectly several times during the test program as described above. The results of these tests may be used to identify safety-related setpoint drift trends. These trends may then be used to modify the frequency of future setpoint verification tests (Q&R 640.7). IPC will expand test program (Chapter 14) to verify the voltage levels at the safety-related buses are optimized (for the full load and minimum load conditions that are expected throughout the anticipated range of voltage variations of the offsite power source) by appropriate adjustment of the voltage tap settings of the intervening transformers (Q&R 640.10). Testing method will be as follows: 1. With intervening transformer's tap setting at taps specified by engineering design and all station distribution buses, including all Class 1E buses down to the 120/208 level, loaded to at least 30% of full load. 2. Record the existing grid and Class 1E bus voltage and bus loading, down to 120/208 level at steady state conditions and during the starting of a large Class 1E and non-Class 1E motor (not concurrently). Note: The bus voltages and loading need only be recorded on that string of buses which previously showed lowest by engineering design. 3. The acceptance criteria will be that the test voltages shall not be lower than 3% of the values specified by engineering design and never less than Class 1E

equipment rated voltage. Containment recirculation fans are not used at CPS for post-accident containment heat removal. Accident conditions result in the containment being isolated with no fans running. Fans (supply and exhaust) are physically located outside containment. No forced recirculation of air exists with accident conditions (Q&R 640.11). 14.2.12.1.1 FEEDWATER SYSTEM Test Objectives

For each test a description of the test purpose, test prerequisites, test description and statement of test acceptance criteria, where applicable, is provided. Additions, deletions, and changes to these descriptions are expected to occur as the test program progresses. In describing the purpose of a test, an attempt is made to identify those operating and safety-oriented characteristics of the plant which are being explored. Where applicable, a definition of the relevant acceptance criteria for the test is given and is designed either Level 1 or Level 2. A Level 1 criterion normally relates to the value of a process variable assigned in the design of the plant, components systems or associated equipment. If a Level 1 criterion is not satisfied, the plant will be placed in a suitable hold condition until resolution is obtained. Tests compatible with this hold condition may be continued. Following resolution, applicable tests must be repeated to verify that the requirements of the Level 1 criterion are not satisfied. A Level 2 criterion is associated with expectations relating to the performance of systems. If a Level 2 criterion is not satisfied, operating and testing plans would not necessarily be altered.

An engineering evaluation and investigation of the measurements and of the analytical techniques used for the predictions would be started. If a certain Level 2 criterion is not satisfied after a reasonable effort, then engineering may choose to document the results with a full explanation of their recommendations. Thus, all Level 2 requirements may not be satisfied

provided that the overall system performance is evaluated to be acceptable based on engineering's recommendations. For transients involving oscillatory response, the criteria are specified in terms of decay ratio (defined as the ratio of successive maximum amplitudes of the same polarity). The decay ratio must be less than unity to meet a Level 1 criterion and less than 0.25 to meet Level 2. When phrases such as "per design, design specifications, consistent with design intent, as designed, etc" are used in the acceptance criteria, that information is taken from the following

The tests will demonstrate that the installed equipment and systems perform within the limits of these specifications. Table 14.2-3 provides a listing of the startup tests.

14.2.12.2.1 CHEMICAL AND RADIOCHEMICAL 14.2.12.2.1.1 Purpose The principal objectives of this test are a) to secure information on the chemistry and radiochemistry of the reactor coolant, and b) to determine that the sampling equipment, procedures and analytic techniques are adequate to supply the data required to demonstrate that the chemistry of all parts of the entire reactor system meet specifications and process

requirements. Specific objectives of the test program include evaluation of fuel performance, evaluations of demineralizer operations by direct and indirect methods, measurements of filter performance, confirmation of condenser integrity, demonstration of proper steam separator-dryer operation, measurement and calibration of the off-gas system, and calibration of certain process instrumentation. Data for these purposes is secured from a variety of sources: plant operating records, regular routine coolant analysis, radiochemical measurements of specific nuclides, and special chemical tests. 14.2.12.2.1.2 Prerequisites Required preoperational tests have been completed, the appropriate parties have reviewed and the Plant Manager has approved the test procedures and initiation of testing. Instrumentation has been checked or calibrated as appropriate.

14.2.12.2.1.3 Description Prior to fuel loading a complete set of chemical and radiochemical samples will be taken to ensure that all sample stations are functioning properly and to determine initial concentrations. Subsequent to fuel loading during reactor heatup and at each major power level change, samples will be taken and measurements will be made to determine the chemical and radiochemical quality of reactor water and reactor feedwater, amount of radiolytic gas in the steam, gaseous activities leaving the air ejectors, decay times in the offgas lines, and performance of filters and demineralizers. Calibrations will be made of monitors in the stack, liquid waste system and liquid process lines.

CPS/USAR CHAPTER 14 14.2-76 REV. 11, JANUARY 2005 14.2.12.2.1.4 Acceptance Criteria Level 1 Chemical factors defined in the Technical Specifications must be maintained within the limits specified. The activity of gaseous liquid effluents must conform to license limitations. Water quality must remain within the guidelines of the water quality specifications.

Level 2 - NA 14.2.12.2.2 RADIATION MEASUREMENTS 14.2.12.2.2.1 Purpose The purposes of this test are a) to determine the background radiation levels in the plant environs prior to operation for base data on activity buildup and b) to monitor radiation at selected power levels to assure the protection of personnel during plant operation. 14.2.12.2.2.2 Prerequisites Required preoperational tests have been completed, the appropriate parties have reviewed and the Power Plant Manager has approved the test procedure and initiation of testing. Instrumentation has been checked or calibrated as appropriate. 14.2.12.2.2.3 Description A survey of natural background radiation throughout the plant site will be made prior to fuel loading. Subsequent to fuel loading, during reactor heatup and at power plateaus (refer to Table 14.2.4), gamma radiation level measurements and where appropriate, thermal and fast

neutron dose rate measurements will be made at significant locations throughout the plant. All potentially high radiation areas will be surveyed. 14.2.12.2.2.4 Acceptance Criteria Level 1 The radiation doses of plant origin and the occupancy times of personnel in radiation zones shall be controlled consistent with the guidelines of the Standards for Protection Against Radiation outlined in 10 CFR 20.

Level 2 - NA 14.2.12.2.3 FUEL LOADING 14.2.12.2.3.1 Purpose The purpose of this test is to load fuel safely and efficiently to the full core size.

CPS/USAR CHAPTER 14 14.2-77 REV. 11, JANUARY 2005 14.2.12.2.3.2 Prerequisites Prerequisites to fuel loading are described in 14.2.10 and the tests require thereby are implied in those prerequisites. Also, the following prerequisites will be met prior to commencing fuel loading to assure that this operation is performed in a safe manner: 1. The status of all systems required to be operable for fuel loading will be specified and will be in the status required. 2. Fuel and control rod inspections will be complete. All control rods are fully inserted and have been functionally and scram tested. 3. The operability of the SRM's has been source checked prior to loading or resumption if significant delays are incurred. 4. Nuclear instrumentation (SRMs and IRMs) has been installed and activated with 1) a minimum count rate of 0.7 counts per second and a signal to noise ratio greater than twenty on the SRMs or a minimum count rate of 3.0 counts per second and a signal to noise ratio greater than two on the SRMs, and 2) the SRMs and IRMs are in the non-coincident trip mode. High-flux scrams and rod block trips are set conservatively low on the SRMs. 5. Reactor vessel status will be specified relative to internal component placement and this placement will be established to make the vessel ready to receive fuel. 6. Reactor vessel water level will be established and minimum level prescribed. 14.2.12.2.3.3 Description Prior to fuel loading, control rods, neutron sources and SRM detectors will be installed and tested. Fuel loading will begin by placing the first four bundles between an SRM detector and an alternate neutron source location to yield the maximum SRM count rate and proceeding radially outwards. This loading pattern will continue until the outside face of the loading block will have first reached the core periphery. Subsequent loading increments will be performed in a spiral pattern around the initial SRM until the core is fully loaded. The SRM located in the quadrant of initial fuel loading will be used to maintain continuous visual indication in the control room until other SRMs are on scale. A portable source will be used to periodically demonstrate operability of the SRMs located in areas with no fuel. The neutron count rate will be monitored in this fashion as the core loading progresses to ensure continuous subcriticality. A partial core shutdown margin demonstration will also be performed. Control rod functional test, subcriticality checks, and shutdown margin demonstrations will be performed periodically during the loading. 14.2.12.2.3.4 Acceptance Criteria Level 1 The partially-loaded core must be subcritical by at least 0.38 percent k/k with the analytically determined highest worth rod fully withdrawn.

CPS/USAR CHAPTER 14 14.2-78 REV. 11, JANUARY 2005 Level 2 - NA 14.2.12.2.4 FULL CORE SHUTDOWN MARGIN 14.2.12.2.4.1 Purpose The purpose of this test is to demonstrate that the reactor will be subcritical throughout the first fuel cycle with any single control rod fully withdrawn. 14.2.12.2.4.2 Prerequisites Prerequisites to full core shutdown margin testing are established in 14.2.10 and the tests required thereby are implied in those prerequisites. Also, the following prerequisites will be complete prior to performing the full core shutdown margin tests: 1. The predicted critical rod position is available. 2. Nuclear instrumentation is available with minimum count rate of 0.7 counts per second and signal to noise ratio greater than twenty on SRMs or a minimum count rate of 3.0 counts per second and a signal to noise ratio greater than two on the SRMs and the SRMs and IRMs are in the non-coincident trip mode. 3. High-flux scram and rod block setpoints are set conservatively low. 14.2.12.2.4.3 Description This test will be performed in the fully loaded core in the xenon-free condition. The shutdown margin test will be performed by withdrawing the control rods from the all-rods-in configuration until criticality is reached. If the highest worth rod will not be withdrawn in sequence, other rods may be withdrawn providing that the reactivity worth is equivalent. The difference between the measured Keff and the calculated Keff for the in-sequence critical will be applied to the calculated value to obtain the true shutdown margin. 14.2.12.2.4.4 Acceptance Criteria Level 1 The shutdown margin of the fully loaded, cold (68°F or 20°C), xenon-free core occurring at the most reactive time during the cycle must be at least 0.38% k/k with the analytically strongest rod (or its reactivity equivalent) withdrawn. If the shutdown margin is measured at some time during the cycle other than the most reactive time, compliance with the above criterion is shown demonstrating that the shutdown margin is 0.38% k/k plus an exposure dependent correction factor which corrects the shutdown margin at that time to the minimum shutdown margin.

Level 2 Criticality should occur within plus or minus 1.0 percent k/k of the predicted critical.

CPS/USAR CHAPTER 14 14.2-79 REV. 11, JANUARY 2005 14.2.12.2.5 CONTROL ROD DRIVE SYSTEM 14.2.12.2.5.1 Purpose The purposes of the control rod drive system test are a) to demonstrate that the control rod drive (CRD) system operates properly over the full range of primary coolant temperatures and pressures from ambient to operating, and b) to determine the initial operating characteristics of the entire CRD system. 14.2.12.2.5.2 Prerequisites Required preoperational tests have been completed. The appropriate parties have reviewed and the Plant Manager has approved the test procedure and initiation of testing. The reactor vessel, turbine building closed cooling water system, condensate system and instrument air system must be operational to the extent required to conduct the test. 14.2.12.2.5.3 Description The CRD tests performed during the startup test program are designed as an extension of the tests performed during the preoperational CRD system tests. Thus, after it is verified that all control rod drives operate properly as installed, they are tested periodically during heatup to assure that there is not significant binding caused by thermal expansion of the core components. A list of all control rod drive tests to be performed during startup testing is provided on the following page.

  • Refers to four fully withdrawn CRDs selected for continuous monitoring based on slow normal accumulator pressure scram times as determined from open vessel testing, or CPS/USAR CHAPTER 14 14.2-80 REV. 11, JANUARY 2005 unusual operating characteristics. The "four selected CRDs" must be compatible with the requirements of both the withdrawal sequence and the installed rod movement limitation systems. ** Individual CRD scram times will be determined from scram data taken during TC-1 or TC-2. Scram time data for control rods not fully withdrawn during the performance of the test described in FSAR 14.2.12.2.5, up to the maximum of 32 control rods not occupying adjacent locations in any direction, including diagonal, are exempted under hot, pressurized conditions, provided they meet all other surveillance test requirements, and that all scram reactivity requirements of the plant safety analysis are met with no scram contribution from these rods. Any remaining rods neither exempted nor fully withdrawn in FSAR Sect. 14.2.12.2.5 will be indiv idually scram tested, before exceeding 40%

power. *** Scram times of the four selected fully withdrawn CRDs will be determined at test condition heatup and at test condition 6 in conjunction with the performance of planned reactor scrams (See tests 25B and 27). 14.2.12.2.5.4 Acceptance Criteria Level 1 Each CRD must have a normal withdraw speed less than or equal to 3.6 inches per second (9.14 cm/sec), indicated by a full 12-foot stroke in greater than or equal to 40 seconds. The maximum scram times, measured with vessel pressures between 950 to 1050 psig, of individual CRDs shall comply with line 1 of the following table: NOTE: For near rated vessel pressure, the scram time shall be measured with charging header pressure at greater than or equal to 1750 psig. Also, individual scram time can be determined in conjunction with the performance of a planned reactor scram (See Test per subsection 14.2.12.2.25). Scram time data for control rods not fully withdrawn during the performance of Test per subsection 14.2.12.2.25, up to the maximum of 32 control rods not occupying adjacent locations in any direction, including the diagonal, are exempted under hot, pressurized conditions, provided they meet all other surveillance test requirements, and that all scram reactivity requirements of the plant safety analysis are met with no scram contribution from these rods. Any remaining rods neither exempted nor fully withdrawn in Test per subsection 14.2.12.2.25 will be individually scram tested, before exceeding 40% power. Maximum Scram Time (seconds) from solenoid de-energization to Position: Line Pressure 43 29 13 1 950-1050 .31-.32 .81-.86 1.44-1.57 2 950-1050 .38-.39 1.09-1.14 2.09-2.22 3 950-1050 .30-.31 .78-.84 1.40-1.53 NOTE: For intermediate dome pressures, the scram time criteria are determined by linear interpolation at each notch position.

CPS/USAR CHAPTER 14 14.2-81 REV. 11, JANUARY 2005 In the event that any CRD scram time exceeds the criteria listed on line 1 of the above table: 1. The maximum scram times of all CRDs which exceeded the times of line 1 shall be reevaluated and shall meet the criteria in line 2. 2. The total number of slow CRDs (i.e., failed criteria in line 1 but passed criteria in line 2) shall not exceed 5. 3. The average scram times of the remaining CRDs (those that met criteria in line 1) shall not exceed the criteria in line 3. 4. A drive failing criteria of line 1 but meeting criteria under line 2 shall not occupy adjacent drive locations in any direction, including the diagonal with another slow or inoperative drive. Note: A CRD which fails the crit eria in line 2 is co nsidered an inoperable CRD.

Level 2 Each CRD must have a normal insert or withdraw speed of 3.0 plus or minus 0.6 inches per second, indicated by a full 12-foot stroke in 40 to 60 seconds. With respect to the control rod drive friction tests, if the differential pressure variation exceeds 15 psid for a continuous drive-in, a settling test must be performed, in which case, the differential settling pressure should not be less than 30 psid nor should it vary by more than 10 psid over a full stroke. The CRD's total cooling water flow rate shall be between 0.28 and 0.34 gpm times the total number of drives. NOTE: The differential settling pressure should be nominally 5 psid higher at the 00 position than at any other position along the CR due to the proper functioning of the spring actuated buffer piston located at the top of the drive. For vessel pressures below 950 psig the maximum scram time of individual fully withdrawn CRDs shall comply with the criteria given in Figure 14.2-8. This is the time from the opening of the main scram contactor to notch 11. Buffer time (defined as the pickup of position indicator probe switch "52" to dropout of "52") shall not be less than 10 milliseconds when scram testing at nominal accumulator conditions with the reactor open to the atmosphere. If the buffer time with the reactor open to atmosphere is less than 12.7 milliseconds, then the buffer time at normal accumulator conditions with the reactor at rated pressure shall not be less than 15 miliseconds. 14.2.12.2.6 SRM PERFORMANCE AND CONTROL ROD SEQUENCE 14.2.12.2.6.1 Purpose The purpose of this test is to demonstrate that the operational sources, source range monitor (SRM) instrumentation, and rod withdrawal sequencer provide adequate information to achieve criticality and increase power in a safe and efficient manner.

CPS/USAR CHAPTER 14 14.2-82 REV. 11, JANUARY 2005 14.2.12.2.6.2 Prerequisites Required preoperational tests have been completed, the appropriate parties have reviewed and the Power Plant Manager has approved the test procedure and the initiation of testing. The control rod drive system must be operational. 14.2.12.2.6.3 Description The operational neutron sources will be installed and source range monitor count rate data will be taken during rod withdrawals to critical and compared with stated criteria on signal and signal count to noise count ratio. A withdrawal sequence has been calculated which completely specifies control rod withdrawals from the all rods in condition to the rated power configuration. Critical rod patterns will be recorded periodically as the reactor is heated to rated temperature. Movements of rods in a prescribed sequence is monitored by the Rod Control and Information System, which will prevent out of sequence withdrawal.

CPS/USAR CHAPTER 14 14.2-83 REV. 11, JANUARY 2005 14.2.12.2.9.2 Prerequisites Required preoperational tests have been complete, the appropriate parties have reviewed and the Power Plant Manager has approved the test procedure and initiation of testing. All source range monitors and pulse preamplifiers, intermediate range monitors and voltage preamplifiers, and average power range monitors have been calibrated in accordance with vendor instructions. 14.2.12.2.9.3 Description Initially the IRM system is set to maximum gain or at the value of gain used during the preoperational test. After the APRM calibration, the IRM gains will be adjusted to optimize the IRM overlap with the SRMs and APRMs. 14.2.12.2.9.4 Acceptance Criteria Level 1 Each required operable IRM channel must be on scale before the SRM's exceed their rod block setpoint. Each APRM must be on scale before the IRM's exceed their rod block setpoint, at the highest range.

Level 2 Each required operable IRM channel must be adjusted so that a half decade overlap with the SRM's and one decade overlap with the APRM's are assured. 14.2.12.2.10 LPRM CALIBRATION 14.2.12.2.10.1 Purpose The purpose of this test is to calibrate the Local Power Range Monitoring (LPRM) System.

14.2.12.2.10.2 Prerequisites Required preoperational tests have been completed, the appropriate parties have reviewed and the Power Plant Manager has approved the test procedure and the initiation of testing. Instrumentation for calibration has been checked and installed. 14.2.12.2.10.3 Description The LPRM channels will be calibrated to make the LPRM readings proportional to the neutron flux in the LPRM water gap at the chamber elevation. Calibration factors will be obtained through the use of either an off-line or a process computer calculation that relates the LPRM reading to average fuel assembly power at the chamber height. 14.2.12.2.10.4 Acceptance Criteria Level 1 - NA CPS/USAR CHAPTER 14 14.2-84 REV. 11, JANUARY 2005 Level 2 Each LPRM reading will be within 10 percent of its calculated value. 14.2.12.2.11 APRM CALIBRATION 14.2.12.2.11.1 Purpose The purpose of this test is to calibrate the average power range monitor system.

14.2.12.2.11.2 Prerequisites Required preoperational tests have been completed and the appropriate parties have reviewed and the Power Plant Manager has approved the test procedure and the initiation of testing. Instrumentation for calibration has been checked and installed. 14.2.12.2.11.3 Description A heat balance will generally be made each shift and after each major power level change. Each APRM channel reading will be adjusted to be consistent with the core thermal power as determined from the heat balance. During heatup a preliminary calibration will be made by adjusting the APRM amplifier gains so that the APRM readings agree with the results of a constant heatup rate heat balance. The APRMs should be recalibrated in the power range by a heat balance as soon as adequate feedwater indication is available. Recalibration of the APRM system will not be necessary from safety considerations if at least three of the four APRM have readings greater than or equal to core power. 14.2.12.2.11.4 Acceptance Criteria Level 1 The APRM channels must be calibrated to read equal to or greater than the actual core thermal power. Technical Specification and Fuel Warranty Limits on APRM gain and APRM scram and rod withdrawal block shall not be exceeded. In the startup mode, all APRM channels must produce a scram at less than or equal to 15% of rated thermal power.

Level 2 If the above criteria are satisfied then the APRM channels will be considered to be reading accurately if they agree with the heat balance or the minimum value required based on peaking factor, MFLPD, and fraction of rated power to within +/-2% of rated power. The indicated APRM power will at no time exceed 100% of rated power.

Computer diagnostic tests have been completed. Construction and construction testing on each input instrument and its cabling shall be completed. 14.2.12.2.12.3 Description Computer system program verifications and calculational program validations at static and at simulated dynamic input conditions will be preoperationally tested at the computer supplier's site and following delivery to the plant site. Following fuel loading, during plant heatup and ascension to rated power, the nuclear steam supply system and the balance of plant system process variables sensed by the computer as digital or analog signals will become available. Verify that the computer is receiving correct values of sensed process variables and that the results of performance calculations of the nuclear steam supply system are correct. At steady state power conditions the Dynamic System Test Case will be performed. 14.2.12.2.12.4 Acceptance Criteria Level 1 - NA Level 2 Process computer programs for Reactor Core Power Distribution will be considered operational

The remaining programs will be considered operational upon successful completion of the static and dynamic testing. 14.2.12.2.13 RCIC SYSTEM 14.2.12.2.13.1 Purpose The purpose of this test is to verify the proper operation of the reactor core isolation cooling (RCIC) system over its expected operating pressure and flow ranges, and to demonstrate reliability in automatic starting from cold standby when the reactor is at power. 14.2.12.2.13.2 Prerequisites Required preoperational tests have been completed, the appropriate parties have reviewed and the Plant Manager has approved the test procedures and initiation of testing. Initial RCIC turbine operation (uncoupled) must be performed to verify satisfactory operation and over-speed trip. 14.2.12.2.13.3 Description The RCIC system test consists of two parts: Injection to the RCIC storage tank (RST) and injection to the reactor vessel. The RST injections consist of controlled and quick starts at reactor pressures ranging from 150 psig to rated, with corresponding pump discharge pressures throttled to be 100 psi above the reactor pressure. During this part of the testing, proper operation of the system will be verified. Immediately after the operability demonstration the RCIC turbine speed loop controller adjustment will be performed at near rated reactor pressure

condition. Reactor vessel injection tests at near rated reactor pressure condition follow to complete the pump flow loop controller adjustments and to demonstrate automatic starting from a hot standby condition. Then, automatic mode start at 150 psig reactor pressure follows to demonstrate the system performance with the set of optimized controller settings from either "hot" or "cold" standby condition. Cold" is defined as a minimum 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> without any kind of RCIC operation.

CPS/USAR CHAPTER 14 14.2-87 REV. 11, JANUARY 2005 These injections are followed by two more reactor injections, beginning with cold RCIC hardware. These vessel injections verify the adequacy of the startup transients and steady-state controller adjustments. Following these injections, two RST injections are done with cold RCIC equipment. These runs provide a benchmark for future surveillance testing. The differential pressure trip modules for the RCIC steam supply line high flow isolation trip will be calibrated by using the data obtained from the several auto-start tests at near-rated pressure conditions. A demonstration of extended operation of RST injection for up to two hours (or until pump and turbine oil temperature is stabilized) of continuous running at rated flow and near rated reactor pressure conditions is scheduled at a convenient time during the test program. 14.2.12.2.13.4 Acceptance Criteria Level 1 The average pump discharge flow must be equal to or greater than 600 gpm after 30 seconds have alapsed from automatic initiation at any reactor pressure between 150 psig and rated pressure. The RCIC turbine shall not trip or isolate during automatic or manual start test. If any Level 1 criteria are not met, the reactor will only be allowed to operate up to a restricted power level defined by Figure 14.2-5.

Level 2 The turbine gland seal system shall be capable of preventing significant steam leakage to the atmosphere. The differential pressure trip modules for the RCIC steam supply line high flow isolation trip shall be calibrated to actuate at the value specified in Technical Specifications. The speed and flow control loop shall be adjusted so that the decay ratio of any RCIC system related variable is not greater than 0.25.

In order to provide an overspeed and isolation trip avoidance margin, the first and subsequent speed peaks associated with the transient quick start shall not exceed the rated RCIC turbine speed by more than 5%. 14.2.12.2.14 SELECTED PROCESS TEMPERATURES AND WATER LEVEL REFERENCE LEG TEMPERATURE 14.2.12.2.14.1A Purpose The purpose of this test are (1) to assure that the measured bottom head drain temperature corresponds to bottom head coolant temperature during normal operations, (2) to identify any reactor operating modes that cause temperature stratification, (3) to determine the proper setting of the low flow control limiter for the recirculation pumps to avoid coolant temperature CPS/USAR CHAPTER 14 14.2-88 REV. 11, JANUARY 2005 stratification in the reactor pressure vessel bottom head region, (4) to familiarize the plant personnel with the temperature differential limitations of the reactor system. 14.2.12.2.14.1B Purpose The purpose of this test is to measure the reference leg temperature and recalibrate the instruments if the measured temperature is different than the value assumed during the initial calibration. 14.2.12.2.14.2 Prerequisites Required preoperational tests have been completed, the appropriate parties have reviewed and the Power Plant Manager has approved the test procedure and initiation of testing. System and test instrumentation has been calibrated. 14.2.12.2.14.3A Description The adequacy of bottom drain line temperature sensors will be determined by comparing it with recirculation loop coolant temperature when core flow is 100% of rated. During initial heatup while at hot standby conditions, the bottom drain line temperature, recirculation loop suction temperature and applicable reactor parameters are monitored as the recirculation flow is slowly lowered to either minimum stable flow or the low recirculation pump speed minimum valve position whichever is the greater. Utilizing this data it can be determined whether coolant temperature stratification occurs when the recirculation pumps are on and if so, what minimum recirculation flow will prevent it. Monitoring the preceeding information during planned pump trips will determine if temperature stratification occurs in the idle recirculation loops or in the lower plenum when one or more loops are inactive. All data will be analyzed to determine if changes in operating procedures are required. 14.2.12.2.14.3B Description To monitor the reactor vessel water level, five level instrument systems are provided. These are: 1. Shutdown Range

2. Narrow Range 3. Wide Range 4. Fuel Range
5. Upset Range These systems are used respectively as follows: 1. Water level measurement in cold, shutdown conditions CPS/USAR CHAPTER 14 14.2-89 REV. 11, JANUARY 2005 2. Feedwater flow and water level control functions 3. Safety functions
4. Post-Accident indication
5. Water level measurements during transient conditions The test will be done at rated temperature and pressure and under steady-state conditions and will verify that the reference leg temperature of the instrument is the value assumed during initial calibration. If not, the instruments will be recalibrated using the measured value. 14.2.12.2.14.4A Acceptance Criteria Level 1 The reactor recirculation pumps shall not be started nor flow increased unless the coolant temperatures between the steam dome and bottom head drain are within 100°F of each other. The recirculation pump in an idle loop must not be started, active loop flow must not be raised and power must not be increased unless the loop suction temperature is within 50°F of the active loop suction temperature. If two pumps are idle, the loop suction temperature must be within 50°F of the steam dome temperature before pump startup.

Level 2 During two pump operation at rated core flow, the bottom head temperature as measured by the bottom drain line thermocouple should be within 30°F of the recirculation loop temperatures. 14.2.12.2.14.4B Acceptance Criteria Level 1 N/A Level 2 The difference between the actual reference leg temperature(s) and the value(s) assumed during intial calibration shall be less than that amount which will result in a scale end point error of 1% of the instrument span for each range. 14.2.12.2.15 SYSTEM EXPANSION 14.2.12.2.15.1 Purpose The purpose of the thermal expansion test is to confirm that the suspension pipe suspension system is working as designed and that the pipe is free of obstructions that could constrain free pipe movement caused by thermal expansion.

CPS/USAR CHAPTER 14 14.2-90 REV. 11, JANUARY 2005 14.2.12.2.15.2 Prerequisites The required preoperational tests are complete; the appropriate parties have reviewed and approved the test procedure and initiation of testing. Instrumentation has been installed and

calibrated. 14.2.12.2.15.3 Description The thermal expansion tests consist of measuring displacements and temperatures of piping during various operating modes. The first power level used to verify expansion shall be as low as practicable. Thermal movement and temperature measurements shall be recorded at the

following test points: 1. Reactor pressure vessel heatup and hold, at least, one intermediate temperature before reaching normal operating temperature; at this time the drywell piping and suspension shall be inspected for obstruction or inoperable supports. 2. Reactor pressure vessel heatup and hold at normal operating temperature. 3. Main steam and recirculation piping heatup and hold at normal operating temperature. 4. On three subsequent heatup cooldown cycles, measurements will be recorded at the operating and shutdown temperatures to measure possible shakedown effects. The piping considered to be within the boundary of this test is listed below: 1. Main steam: Steam lines, including the RCIC piping on Line A, shall be tested. Those portions within the scope of the test are bounded by the reactor pressure vessel nozzles and the penetration head fittings. 2. Relief valve discharge piping: The piping attached to the main steam lines and bounded by the relief valve discharge flange and the first downstream anchor shall be within the scope of the test. 3. Recirculation piping: The recirculation piping, bounded by the reactor pressure vessel nozzle, is within the scope of the test. 4. Small attached piping: All small branch piping attached to those portions of piping within the scope of the test is bounded by the large pipe branch connection and the first downstream guide or anchor. Small brance pipes that cannot be monitored because of limited access are excluded from the scope of

this test. 14.2.12.2.15.4 Acceptance Criteria The thermal expansion acceptance criteria are based upon the actual movements being within a prescribed tolerance of the movements predicted by analysis. Measured movements are not expected to correspond precisely with those mathematically predicted. Therefore, a tolerance is specified for differences between measured and predicted movement. The tolerances are CPS/USAR CHAPTER 14 14.2-91 REV. 11, JANUARY 2005 based on consideration of measurement accuracy, suspension free play, and vary from the predictions by more than the specified tolerance, the piping is expanding in a manner consistent with predictions and is therefore acceptable. Tolerances shall be the same for all operating test conditions. For the locations to be monitored, predicted displacements and actual measurements will be compared.

Level 1 The Level 1 movement tolerances are intended to set bounds on thermal movement which, if exceeded, require that the test be placed on hold. Pipe will not necessarily converge smoothly to predicted movements with increase in operating temperature. During the first part of the test, vessel movements will often move the pipe in a direction opposite of stress report predictions; the pipe may also advance in a stepwise fashion due to friction constraint. Level 1 criteria discount spurious movement measurements that could result in unnecessary test holds but still maintain safe limits on movement. To assure that the criteria are applied at relevant test conditions, the criteria cannot be applied before the vessel and piping temperatures are at meaningful values. In addition, a voting logic is used to discount spurious movements due to instrument malfunction. If the free thermal expansion of the piping is obstructed, movement discrepancies would occur at multiple locations because of coupling effects; therefore, in specified cases, if only one instrument out of several indicateds movements are not within Level 1 criteria, that measurement will be discounted as spurious.

Main Steam Prerequisites for criteria application: 1. Reactor must be at normal operating temperature. 2. Thermal transducers must indicate that piping is at normal operating temperature. 3.* Thermal transducer must indicate that the RClC line is at normal operating temperature. Requirements for test hold or termination:

1. If both of the pair of movement transducers on the same main steam pipe indicate that movements along a non-vertical X-axis of the plant coordinate system are not within the Level 1 movement tolerances, the test shall be placed on hold. 2. If both of the vertical movement transducers (one on the steam line A and other on RCIC piping off of main steam line A) indicate that movements are not within the Level 1 movement tolerances, the test shall be placed on hold.
  • Applicable to steam line A only.

CPS/USAR CHAPTER 14 14.2-92 REV. 11, JANUARY 2005 3. If any one of the other main steam line movement transducers indicate that movements are not with Level 1 tolerances, the test shall be placed on hold. Recirculation Piping Prerequisites for criteria application: 1. Reactor must be at normal operating temperature. 2. A thermal transducer must indicate that pipe is at normal operating temperature. Requirements for test hold or termination: 1. If both of the pair of non-vertical movement transducers on the same recirculation discharge pipe indicate that movements along the same axes of the plant coordinate system are not within the Level 1 movement tolerances, the test shall be placed on hold. 2. If any one of the other movement transducers indicate that the movements are not within the Level 1 movement tolerances, the test shall be placed on hold.

Level 2 Transducer alignment Level 2 tolerances, and predicted movements for the various system operating modes are contained in the applicable piping stress reports. Correlation of Test Data and Analysis The predicted movements are based on mathematical calculations that are dependent on assumed nozzle movements and temperature distributions. The measured temperatures and nozzle movements must be compared with those assumed in the analysis to determine which analysis condition corresponds to the test condition. Only corresponding conditions can be used to evaluate test results. If the test conditions do not correspond to any of those assumed in the analysis, the evaluating GE Piping Design Engineer may find it necessary to calculate movements based on measurements, and compare the predicted movements with the measured moments to establish acceptability. 14.2.12.2.16

2) minimum critical power ratio (MCPR) and 3) maximum average planar linear heat generation rate (MAPLHGR).

System instrumentation is installed and calibrated and test instrumentation is calibrated. 14.2.12.2.17.3 Description The core performance evaluation is employed to determine the principal thermal and hydraulic parameters associated with core behavior. These parameters are:

Core flow rate Core thermal power level MLHGR MAPLHGR MCPR The core performance parameters listed above will be evaluated by a backup method or may be obtained from the process computer. If the process computer is used as a primary means to obtain these parameters, it must be proved that it agrees with the backup method (BUCLE) within 2 percent on all thermal parameters or the results must be corrected to do so. If both the backup method (BUCLE) and the process computer are not available, the manual calculation techniques available at the site can be used for the core performance evaluation. BUCLE refers to GE's "Back-Up Core Limits Evaluation" computer program. This is not the only automated backup method available for core performance calculations. Appropriate means of validating process computer results will be determined as needed. 14.2.12.2.17.4 Acceptance Criteria Level 1 The Maximum Linear Heat Generation Rate (MLHGR) of any rod during steady-state conditions shall not exceed the limit specified by the Plant Technical Specifications.

Instrumentation has been checked and calibrated as appropriate. 14.2.12.2.19.3 Description The pressure set point will be decreased rapidly and then increased rapidly by about 10 psi and the response of the system will be measured in each case. It is desirable to accomplish the set point change in less than 1 second. At specified test conditions the load limit setpoint will be set so that the transient is handled first by contr ol valves, then by bypass valves or both. The backup regulator will be tested by simulating a failure of the operating pressure regulator so that the backup regulator takes over control. The response of the system will be measured and evaluated and regulator settings will be optimized. 14.2.12.2.19.4 Acceptance Criteria Level 1 The transient response of any pressure control system related variable to any test input must not diverge.

The level set point changes will also demonstrate core stability to subcooling changes. Under normal operation with one feedwater loop in automatic and the loop to be tested in manual, a manual flow step will be initiated and each loop's flow response will be determined.

Peak steam flow in each line must remain 10% below the high flow isolation trip setting.

14.2.12.2.22 MAIN STEAM ISOLATION VALVES 14.2.12.2.22.1A Purpose The purposes of this test are a) to functionally check the main steam line isolation valves (MSIVs) for proper operation at selected power levels and b) to determine isolation valve closure time at rated conditions. 14.2.12.2.22.1B Purpose The purpose of this test is to determine reactor transient behavior during and following simultaneous full closure of all MSIVs 14.2.12.2.22.1C Purpose The purpose of this test is to verify the correct calibration of the steam line flow elements. 14.2.12.2.22.2 Prerequisites Required preoperational tests have been completed, the appropriate parties have reviewed and the Power Plant Manager has approved the test procedure and initiation of testing. Instrumentation has been checked or calibrated as appropriate. 14.2.12.2.22.3A Description At 5% and greater reactor power levels, individual fast closure of each MSIV will be performed to verify their functional performance and to determine closure times. The times to be determined are a) the valve stroke time and b) total effective closure time. The MSIV stroke time equals the interval from when the valve starts to move until it is 100% closed. Total CPS/USAR CHAPTER 14 14.2-99 REV. 11, JANUARY 2005 effective closure time equals the interval from de-energizing the solenoids until the valve is 100% closed plus the maximum instrumentation delay time. 14.2.12.2.22.3B Description A test of the simultaneous full closure of all MSIV's will be performed at greater than or equal to 95% of rated thermal power. Correct performance of the RCIC system and the relief valves during the subsequent pressure transient will be shown. Reactor process variables will be monitored to determine the transient behavior of the system during and following the Main Steam Line isolation. The operation of the safety grade low-low pressure relief logic system will be monitored. A comparison between the reactor pressure behavior and SRV actuations will be made to confirm open/close setpoints and containment load mitigation through the prevention of subsequent simultaneous actuations. 14.2.12.2.22.3C Description The calibration constants of both sets of main steam line flow elements (elbows and venturis) will be verified to match predicted values. Heat and mass balances will be performed on the reactor system at several power levels and the information obtained will be used to construct calibration curves for each flow element. If the accurancies of the steam line flow elements are not within +/-5% of rated flow (relative to the feedwater flow elements) then new calibration curves will be constructed. 14.2.12.2.22.4A Acceptance Criteria Level 1 MSIV stroke time, for any individual valve, shall be no faster than 3.0 seconds and no slower than 5.0 seconds. Total effective MSIV closure time shall be less than or equal to 5.5 seconds.

Level 2 During full closure of individual valves, peak vessel pressure must be 10 psi below scram, peak neutron flux must be at least 7.5% below scram, and steam flow in individual lines must be 10% below the isolation trip setting. The peak heat flux must be at least 5% below its trip setting. The reactor shall not scram or isolate.

14.2.12.2.22.4B Acceptance Criteria Level 1 The positive change in vessel dome pressure occurring within the first 30 seconds after a closure of all MSIV valves must not exceed the Level 2 criteria by more than 25 psi. The positive change in simulated heat flux must not exceed the Level 2 criteria by more than 2% of the rated value. The MSIV stroke times shall be no faster than 3.0 seconds and no slower than 5.0 seconds. The reactor shall scram on receipt of a full isolation signal.

CPS/USAR CHAPTER 14 14.2-100 REV. 11, JANUARY 2005 The feedwater control system will prevent flooding of the main steam lines. If any SRV's open, no more than one shall reopen after the first blowdown.

Level 2 For the full MSIV closure from full power, predicted analytical results based on beginning of cycle design basis analysis, assuming no equipment failures and applying appropriate parametric corrections, will be used as the basis to which the actual transient is compared. The following table specifies the upper limits of these criteria during the first 30 seconds following initiation of the indicated conditions. Initial Conditions Criteria Power Dome Pressure Increase In Heat Flux Increase In Dome Pressure (%) (psia) (%) (psi) 100 1040 * *

  • Defined in the Transient Safety Analysis Design Report issued by GE.

A recirculation pump trip shall be initiated if low water level (Level 2) is reached. Pumps will transfer to low speed if low water level (Level 3) is reached. The total number of SRV opening cycles of the "low low" set valve, after initial blowdown, shall not exceed three times during the initial five minutes after the full isolation. If the low low pressure relief logic functions, the open/close actions of the SRV's shall occur within +/-15 psi and +/-20 psi of their design setpoints, respectively. RCIC and HPCS shall automatically initiate if low water level Level 2 is reached. If they initiate their performance shall match Technical Specification requirements. The temperature measured by thermocouples on the discharge side of the valves shall return to within 10°F of the temperature recorded before the valve was opened. 14.2.12.2.22.4C Acceptance Criteria Level 1 None Level 2 The accuracies of the elbow taps and meters shall be within +/-5% of rated flow relative to the feedwater flow elements whenever flow is between 20% and 120% of rated. The repeatability/noise shall be within +/-5% of rated flow. The flow venturi DP shall be equal to or greater than 79.71 psi at rated steam flow.

CPS/USAR CHAPTER 14 14.2-101 REV. 11, JANUARY 2005 14.2.12.2.23 RELIEF VALVES 14.2.12.2.23.1 Purpose The purpose of this test is (a) to verify that the relief valves function properly (can be opened and closed manually), (b) to verify that the relief valves reseat properly after operation, (c) to verify that there are no major blockages in the relief valve discharge piping. 14.2.12.2.23.2 Prerequisites Required preoperational tests have been completed, the appropriate parties have reviewed and the Power Plant Manager has approved the test procedure and initiation of testing. Instrumentation has been checked or calibrated as appropriate. 14.2.12.2.23.3 Description A functional and flow demonstration test of each safety relief valve (SRV) shall be made prior to reaching test condition 2 with a reactor pressure greater than 950 psig. During the flow demonstration test of each SRV, the electrical output response is monitored during the rated pressure test. The test duration will be about 10 seconds to allow turbine bypass valves and tailpipe temperature sensors to reach a steady state. The tailpipe temperature sensor responses will be used to detect the opening and subsequent closure of each SRV. The MWe responses will be analyzed for anomolies indicating a restriction in an SRV tailpipe. Valve capacity will be based on certification by ASME code stamp with the applicable documentation being available in the on-site records. Note that the nameplate capacity/pressure rating assumes that the flow is sonic. This will be true if the back pressure is not excessive. A major blockage of the line would not necessarily be offset and it should be determined that none exists through the MWe response signatures. Vendor bench test data of the SRV opening responses will be available on-site for comparison with design specifications. This test will also be used to calibrate the SRV flow monitor system using actual SRV lift data. After calibration, alarm setpoints will be established based on existing background noise levels and the guidelines provided by the flow monitor vendor. 14.2.12.2.23.4 Acceptance Criteria Level 1 There should be a positive indication of steam discharge during the manual actuation of each valve. Level 2 Pressure control system - related variables may contain oscillatory modes of response. In these cases, the decay ratio for each controlled mode of response must be less than or equal to 0.25.

CPS/USAR CHAPTER 14 14.2-102 REV. 11, JANUARY 2005 The temperature measured by thermocouples on the discharge side of the valves shall return to within 10°F of the temperature recorded before the valve was opened. During the rated pressure test the steam flow through each relief valve, as measured by electrical output shall not differ by more than 0.5 percent of rated MWe from the average of all the valve responses. 14.2.12.2.24 TURBINE TRIP AND GENERATOR LOAD REJECTION 14.2.12.2.24.1 Purpose The purpose of this test is to demonstrate the response of the reactor and its control systems to protective trips in the turbine and generator. 14.2.12.2.24.2 Prerequisites Required preoperational tests have been completed, the appropriate parties have reviewed and the Plant Manager has approved the test procedure and initiation of testing. All controls and interlocks are checked and instrumentation calibrated. 14.2.12.2.24.3 Description The turbine stop valves will be tripped at a low reactor power level within bypass valve capacity and the main generator breaker will be tripped at a higher power in such a way that a load imbalance trip occurs. For the protective trips occurring at intermediate and higher power levels, the reactor will scram by de-energizing the reactor protection system (RPS) solenoids, actuated by stop/control valve motion. Several reactor and turbine operating parameters will be monitored to evaluate the response of the bypass valves, relief valves, and reactor protection system. Additionally, the peak values of reactor steam pressure and heat flux will be determined. The ability to ride through a turbine trip within bypass capacity without a scram will also be demonstrated at a low power level. The method chosen for inducing a 100% load rejection will maximize the expected turbine overspeed. The operation of the safety grade low-low set pressure relief logic system will be monitored. A comparison between the reactor pressure behavior and SRV actuations will be made to confirm open/close setpoints and containment load mitigation through the prevention of subsequent simultaneous SRV actuations. 14.2.12.2.24.4 Acceptance Criteria Level 1 For Generator trip from greater than 50% power, bypass valve quick opening should begin by 0.1 second after start of stop valve closure, and bypass flow should be greater than or equal to 80% of bypass valve capacity within another 0.2 second (i.e., within 0.3 second of start of stop or control valve closure).

Feedwater system settings must prevent flooding of the steam lines following these transients. The two pump drive flow coastdown transient during the first three seconds must be bounded by the criteria specified for the test in Subsection 14.2.12.2.27.

CPS/USAR CHAPTER 14 14.2-103 REV. 11, JANUARY 2005 The positive change in vessel dome pressure occurring within 30 seconds after either generator or turbine trip must not exceed the Level 2 criteria by more than 25 psi. The positive change in simulated heat flux shall not exceed the Level 2 criteria by more than 2%

of rated value.

If any safety/relief valves open, no more than one valve shall reopen after the first blowdown.

Level 2 There shall be no MSIV closure during the first three minutes of the transient and operator action shall not be required during that period to avoid the MSIV trip. (The operator may take action as he desires after the first three minutes, including switching out of run mode. The operator may also switch out of run mode in the first three minutes if he confirms from measured data that this action did not prevent MSIV closure caused by the reactor water level transient.) The positive changes in vessel dome pressure and simulated heat flux which occur within the first 30 seconds after the initiation of either generator or turbine trip must not exceed the

predicted values. (Predicted values as defined in the Transient Safety Analysis Design Report issued by G.E. will be referenced to actual test conditions of initial power level and dome pressure and will use BOL (Beginning of Life) nuclear data. Worst case design of technical specifications values of all hardware performance shall be used in the prediction, with the exception of control rod insertion time and the delay from beginning of turbine control valve or stop valve motion to the generation of the scram signal. The predicted pressure and heat flux will be corrected for the actual measured values of these two parameters.) For the turbine trip within the bypass valves capacity, the reactor shall not scram for initial thermal power values within that bypass valve capacity. The measured bypass capacity shall be equal to or greater than that used for the FSAR analysis. Recirculation LFMG sets shall take over after the initial recirculation pump trips and adequate vessel temperature difference shall be maintained. Feedwater level control shall avoid loss of feedwater due to possible high level (Level 8) trip during the event.

Low water level total recirculation pump trip, HPCS and RCIC shall not be initiated.

If the low-low set pressure relief logic functions, the open/close actions of the SRV's shall occur within +/-15 psi and +/-20 psi of their design setpoints, respectively. The temperature measured by thermocouples on the discharge side of the safety/relief valves must return to within 10°F of the temperature recorded before the valve was opened.

CPS/USAR CHAPTER 14 14.2-104 REV. 11, JANUARY 2005 14.2.12.2.25 SHUTDOWN FROM OUTSIDE THE MAIN CONTROL ROOM 14.2.12.2.25.1 Purpose The purpose of this test is to demonstrate that the reactor can be brought from a normal initial steady-state power level to the point where normal low pressure shutdown cooling is initiated and under control with reactor vessel pressure and water level controlled from outside the control room. 14.2.12.2.25.2 Prerequisites Required preoperational tests have been completed, the appropriate parties have reviewed and the Power Plant Manager has approved the test procedure and initiation of testing. All controls and interlocks are checked and instrumentation calibrated. 14.2.12.2.25.3 Description The test will initiate from a power level of approximately 10-25% with the turbine generator on-line. The reactor will be scrammed and isolated by separate actions from outside the control room after a simulated control room evacuation. Reactor pressure and water level will be controlled using SRV's, RCIC, and RHR from outside the control room during the subsequent hot standby and cooldown. The cooldown will continue at least until the RHR shutdown cooling mode is placed in service from outside the main control room. The portion of demonstrating cold shutdown capability may be performed in conjuction with another startup test when sufficient decay heat is available and reactor cooldown is required. The operating crew will be equal to the minimum shift operating requirements. All other operator actions not directly related to vessel water level and pressure will be performed in the main control room. 14.2.12.2.25.4 Acceptance Criteria Level 1 - NA Level 2 During a simulated control room evacuation, the reactor must be maintained in hot standby conditions for at least 30 minutes.

The test must demonstrate the reduction of reactor coolant pressure and temperature sufficient to put RHR shutdown cooling system in operation and cooldown of at least 50°F using this decay heat removal system. 14.2.12.2.26 RECIRCULATION FLOW CONTROL 14.2.12.2.26.1A Purpose The purpose of this test is to demonstrate the recirculation flow control system's capability while in the valve position (POS) mode.

CPS/USAR CHAPTER 14 14.2-105 REV. 11, JANUARY 2005 14.2.12.2.26.1B Purpose

  • The purposes of this test are a) to demonstrate the recirculation flow control system's capability over the entire flow control range, including valve position, core flow, and neutron flux modes of operation, and b) to determine that all electrical compensators and controllers are set for desired system performance and stability. 14.2.12.2.26.2 Prerequisites Required preoperational tests have been completed, the appropriate parties have reviewed and the Power Plant Manager has approved the test procedure and initiation of testing. All controls are checked and instrumentation calibrated. 14.2.12.2.26.3A Description The testing of the recirculation flow control system follows a "building block" approach while the plant is ascending from low to high power levels. Components and inner control loops are tested first, followed by drive flow control and plant power maneuvers to adjust and then demonstrate the outer loop controller performance. 14.2.12.2.26.3B Description By far the most extensive testing will be performed along the mid power load line where most of the final adjustments are determined. The core power distribution will be adjusted by control rods to permit broader range of maneuverability with respect to preconditioning interim operating management recommendations (PCIOMR). In general, the controller dials and gains will be raised to meet the maneuvering performance objectives. Thus the system will be set to be the slowest that will perform satisfactorily, in order to maximize stability margins and to

minimize equipment wear by avoiding controller overactivity. Because of PCIOMR power maneuvering rate restrictions, the fast flow maneuvering adjustments are performed along a mid power rod line, and an extrapolation made to the expected results along the 100 percent rod line as illustrated in 1 Figure 14.2-6. Illinois Power Company has the option to decide to: 1. Perform the faster power changes on the 100 percent rod line that are greater than what the PCIOMR allow, or 2. To accept the mid power load line demonstrations as acceptable proof of maneuverability. For immediate commercial operating, the flux loop will be set slower, and the operators will limit their actions in the Manual mode. If PCl0MR's are ever withdrawn the tested (faster) Auto settings can be inserted onto the controller with only a brief dynamic test, rather than a full startup test.

  • Master (Auto/Manual) and Flux (Auto/

Manual) control modes have been deleted.

CPS/USAR CHAPTER 14 14.2-106 REV. 11, JANUARY 2005 14.2.12.2.26.4A Acceptance Criteria Level 1 The transient response of any Recirculation system-related variables to any test input must not diverge. Level 2 Recirculation system related variables may contain oscillatory modes of response. In these cases, the decay ratio for each controlled mode of response must be less than or equal to 0.25. Maximum rate of change of valve position shall be 10 +/- 1% per sec.

During TC-3 and TC-6 while operating on the high speed (60HZ) source, gains and limiters shall be set to obtain the following response. Delay time for position demand step shall be: For step inputs of 5% 0.15 sec. Response time for position demand step shall be: For step inputs of 5% .45 sec. Overshoot after a small position demand input (5%) step shall be <10% of magnitude of input.

14.2.12.2.26.4B Acceptance Criteria Flow Loop Criteria Level 1 The transient response of any recirculation system-related variable to any test input must not diverge. Level 2 The decay ratio of the flow loop response to any test inputs shall be less than or equal to 0.25. The flow loops provide equal flows in the two loops during steady state operation. Flow loop gains should be set to correct a flow imbalance in less than 25 sec.

The delay time for flow demand step (5%) shall be 0.4 seconds or less.

The response time for flow demand step (5%) shall be 1.1 seconds or less. The maximum allowable flow overshoot for step demand of 5% of rated shall be 6% of the demand step. The flow demand step settling time shall be 6 sec.

CPS/USAR CHAPTER 14 14.2-107 REV. 11, JANUARY 2005 Flux Loop Criteria Level 1 The flux loop response to test inputs shall not diverge.

Level 2 Flux overshoot to a flux demand step shall not exceed 2% of rated for a step demand of 20% or rated.

The delay time for flux response to a flux demand step shall be 0.8 sec.

The response time for flux demand step shall be 2.5 sec. The flux setting time shall be 15 sec. for a flux demand step 20% of rated. Scram Avoidance and General Criteria Level 1 NA Level 2 For any one of the above loops' test maneuvers, the trip avoidance margins must be at least the following:

For APRM 7.5%. For simulated heat flux 5.0%. Flux Estimator Test Criteria Level 1 Not Applicable

Level 2 Switching between estimated and sensed flux should not exceed 5 times/5 minutes at a steady state. During flux step transient there should not be switching to sensed flux or if switching does occur, it should switch back to estimated flux within 20 seconds of the start of the transient. Flow Control Valve Duty Test Criteria Level 1 Not Applicable CPS/USAR CHAPTER 14 14.2-108 REV. 11, JANUARY 2005 Level 2 The flow conrrol valve duty cycle in any operating mode shall not exceed 0.2% - Hz. Flow control valve duty cycle is defined as: seconds in span time x 2hz) (% percent in movement valve Integrated 14.2.12.2.27 RECIRCULATION SYSTEM 14.2.12.2.27.1A Purpose The purposes of this test are a) to determine transient responses and steady-state conditions following single recirculation pump trips at selected reactor power levels and b) to verify that the feedwater control system can satisfactorily control water level without a resulting turbine trip scram following a single recirculation pump trip. 14.2.12.2.27.1B Purpose The purpose of this test is to record and verify acceptable performance of the RPT circuitry.

14.2.12.2.27.1C Purpose The purpose of this test is to obtain recirculation system performance data during the startup test program.

14.2.12.2.27.1D DELETED 14.2.12.2.27.1E Purpose The purpose of this test is to verify that no recirculation system cavitation occurs on the operable region of the power/flow map. 14.2.12.2.27.2 Prerequisites Required preoperational tests have been completed and the appropriate parties have reviewed and the Power Plant Manager has approved the test procedure and initiation of testing. Instrumentation has been checked or calibrated as appropriate. 14.2.12.2.27.3A Description A potential threat to plant availability is the high water level turbine trip scram caused by the level upswell that results after an unexpected recirculation one pump trip. The change in core flow and the resultant power decrease causes void formation which the level sensing system senses as a rise in water level. The one pump trip tests are to prove that the water level will not rise enough to threaten a high level trip of the main turbine or the feedwater pump. 14.2.12.2.27.3B Description In case of higher power turbine or generator trips, there is an automatic opening of circuit breakers in the pump power supply. The result is a fast core flow coastdown that helps reduce CPS/USAR CHAPTER 14 14.2-109 REV. 11, JANUARY 2005 peak neutron and heat flow in such events. This two pump trip test verified that this flow coastdown is satisfactory prior to the high power turbine/ generator trip tests and subsequent

operation. 14.2.12.2.27.3C Description Recirculation system parameters will be recorded at several power-flow conditions during power ascension and in conjunction with single pump trip recoveries. 14.2.12.2.27.3D DELETED 14.2.12.2.27.3E Description The jet pumps, the FCV's and the recirculation pumps will cavitate at conditions of high flow and low power where NPSH demands are high and little feedwater subcooling occurs. However, the recirculation flow will automatically runback upon sensing a decrease in subcooling (as measured by the difference between the steam and recirculation loop temperature), to lower the reactor power. The maximum recirculation flow is limited by appropriate stops which will runback the recirculation flow from the possible cavitation region. It will be verified that these limits are sufficient to prevent operation where recirculation pump or jet pump cavitation is predicted to occur. The recirculation system flow control valves will cavitate at conditions of high differential pressure and low power (low subcooling). The recirculation flow will automatically run back upon sensing a decrease in subcooling (as measured by low feedwater flow). This limit will be verified to ensure that operation is prevented where flow control valve cavitation may occur. In both the above cases, flow runback is caused by a shift in the power supply to the recirculation pump motors from normal power to the low frequency motor generators. However, actual transfer to low pump speed may not be required during the performance of this testing as long as no sign of recirculation pump, jet pump or recirculation flow control valve cavitation is evident and closely monitored before cavitation interlock setpoints are exceeded. 14.2.12.2.27.4A Acceptance Criteria Level 1 The reactor shall not scram during a one pump trip recovery.

Level 2 The reactor water level margin to avoid a high level trip shall be 3.0 inches during the one pump trip. NOTE Margin to trip is defined as:

Margin = (Hi Level Trip L8 Setpoint) - (Maximum water level reached during test) - (Hi Level Alarm L7 setpoint - Initial water level) The simulated heat flux margin to avoid a scram shall be 5.0 percent during the one pump trip recovery.

CPS/USAR CHAPTER 14 14.2-110 REV. 11, JANUARY 2005 The APRM margin to avoid a scram shall be 7.5% during the one pump trip recovery. The time from zero pump speed to full pump speed shall be greater than 3 seconds. 14.2.12.2.27.4B Acceptance Criteria Level 1 The two pump drive flow coastdown transient during the first 3 seconds must be bounded by the limiting curves. The two pump drive flow coastdown limiting curves are defined in the Transient Safety Analysis Design Report issued by G.E. and will be used as the basis to which the actual transient is compared. The limiting curves as applicable to this test will be determined based on the measurements of the recirculation flow delta P using the elbow flowmeters, transmitter time constants, and applicable electronic time constants. It should be noted that the coastdown limiting curves are not safety criteria but indications of plant performance. Violation of the coastdown requirements does not indicate an unsafe condition but rather that the impact should be evaluated on an individual basis. Therefore, evaluation and acceptance of actual test data by the appropriate design engineering organization may be utilized to satisfy this criteria.

Level 2 NA 14.2.12.2.27.4C Acceptance Criteria Level 1 NA Level 2 The core flow shortfall shall not exceed 5% at rated power.

  • The measured core P shall be be 0.6 psi above prediction using beginning of life values at rated power and rated flow.
  • The calculated jet pump M ratio shall not be 0.2 points below prediction using beginning of life values at rated power and rated flow.
  • The drive flow shortfall shall not exceed 5% at rated power.
  • The measured recirculation pump efficiency shall not be 8% points below the vendor tested efficiency at rated power and rated flow. The nozzle and riser plugging criteria given below shall not be exceeded.
  • The GE Steam Generation System Design Unit will provide predictions for the comparisons for these criteria.

Instrumentation has been checked or calibrated as appropriate. 14.2.12.2.

28.3 DESCRIPTION

The loss of off-site power test will be performed between 10 and 20 percent of rated power coincident with a turbine generator trip, and the loss of power condition will be maintained for at least thirty (30) minutes. The proper response of reactor plant equipment, automatic switching equipment, and the proper sequencing of the diesel generator loads will be checked. No exception to Appendix A, Paragraph 5jj is needed (formerly Exception 4). (Q&R 640.1)

CPS/USAR CHAPTER 14 14.2-112 REV. 11, JANUARY 2005 14.2.12.2.28.4 ACCEPTANCE CRITERIA Level 1 Reactor protection system actions shall prevent violation of fuel thermal limits. All safety systems such as the Reactor Protection System, the diesel-generators, and HPCS must function properly without manual assistance, and HPCS and/or RCIC system action, if necessary, shall keep the reactor water level above the initiation level of Low Pressure Core Spray, LPCI and Automatic Depressurization systems and MSIV closure. Diesel generators shall start automatically. The turbine steam bypass valves shall open after turbine generator trips and remain operable until the MSIV's are closed or until the low condenser vacuum signal closes the bypass valves or for at least 5 seconds.

Level 2 Proper instrument display to the reactor operator shall be demonstrated, including power monitors, pressure, water level, suppression pool temperature and reactor cooling system status. Displays shall not be dependent on specially installed instrumentation. Temporary interruption of instrument display is acceptable provided that the operator has sufficient information available for long term operation to properly assess the plant state. The turbine steam bypass valves shall remain operable after turbine-generator trips for at least 35 seconds or until the MSIV's are closed or until the low condenser vacuum signal closes the bypass valves. 14.2.12.2.29 PIPING VIBRATION 14.2.12.2.29.1 Purpose The purpose of this test is to verify that the main steam, recirculation, and RCIC steam piping vibration is within acceptable limits and to verify that, during operating transient loads, pipe stresses are within code limits. 14.2.12.2.29.2 Prerequisites Required preoperational tests have been completed, the appropriate parties have reviewed and the Plant Manager has approved the test procedure and initiation of testing. Instrumentation has been checked or calibrated as appropriate. 14.2.12.2.29.3 Description This test is an extension of the System Expansion Test (subsection 14.2.12.2.15), and the preoperational vibration tests. Consult Subsection 14.2.12.2.15 for piping considered to be within the scope of testing. Because of limited access due to high-radiation levels, very little visual observation will be required during the startup phase of the testing. Remote measurements of piping vibrations shall be made during the following steady-state conditions:

CPS/USAR CHAPTER 14 14.2-113 REV. 11, JANUARY 2005 1. Main steam flow at 25 percent of rated. 2. Main steam flow at 50 percent of rated. 3. Main steam flow at 75 percent of rated.

4. Main steam flow and recirculation flow at 100 percent of rated. 5. RCIC turbine steam line at 100 percent of rated. 6. RHR suction piping at 100 percent of rated flow in shutdown cooling mode.
7. Recirculation at minimum flow and coincident temperature.
8. Recirculation flow at 50% +/-5% of rated on 100% rod line and at operating temperature.
9. Recirculation flow at 75% +/-5% of rated on 100% rod line and at operating temperature.

During the operating transient load testing, the amplitude of displacement and number of cycles per transient of the main steam and recirculation piping will be measured, and the displacements compared with acceptance criteria. Remote vibration and deflection measurements shall be taken during the following transients: 1. Recirculation pump start.

2. Recirculation pump trip at 100 percent of rated flow.
3. Main steam and recirculation piping during a turbine trip or generator trip at 100 percent power. 4. Main steam piping during a generator load reject without scram.
5. Manual discharge of each SRV valve at 1,000 psig and at selected planned transient tests that result in SRV discharge. 6. RCIC steam and water piping during RCIC starts.
7. Feedwater lines during a feedpump trip at TC-6. For the locations to be monitored, predicted displacements and actual measurements will be compared. The locations to be monitored and predicted displacements for the monitored locations will be provided by the piping test specification (23A1861) and data sheet
