NIM RAB Reactor Pressure Reactor Water Level Reactor Water Temperature Torus Water Temperature Drywell Pressure Emergency Condenser Water Level Drywell Temperature "AllRods In" Light Emergency Condenser Condensate Return Valve and Motor-Operated Steam Supply Valves Control on the Same Panel AMENDMENTNO. 76 155 279

BASES FOR 3.6.13 AND 4.6.13 REMOTE SHUTDOWN PANELS The remote shutdown panels provide 1) manual initiation of the emergency condensers

2) manual control of the steam supply valves and 3) parameters monitoring independent of the'main/auxiliary control room. Two panels are provided, each located in a separate fire area, for added redundancy.

Both panels are also in separate fire areas from the main/auxiliary control room.

One channel of each Function provides the necessary capabilities consistent with 10CFR50 Appendix R. Therefore, only one channel of either remote shutdown panel monitoring instrument or control is required to be operable.

The electrical design of the panels is such that no single fire can cause loss of both emergency condensers.

Each remote shutdown panel is provided with controls for one emergency condenser loop. The emergency condensers are designed such hat automatic initiation is independently assured in the event of a fire 1) in the Reactor Building (principle relay logic located in the auxiliary control room or 2) in the main/auxiliary control room or Turbine Building (redundant relay logic located in the Reactor Building). Each remote shutdown panel also has controls to operate the two motor-operated steam supply valves on its respective emergency condenser loop. A key operated bypass switch is provided to override the automatic isolation signal to these valves.

Once the bypass switch is activated, the steam supply valves can be manually controlled from the remote shutdown panels.

Since automatic initiation of the emergency condenser is assured, the remote shutdown panels serve as additional manual controlling stations for the emergency condensers.

In addition, certain parameters are monitored at each remote shutdown panel.

The remote shutdown panels are normally de-energized, except for the monitoring instrumentation, which is normally energized.

To energize the remaining functions on a remote shutdown panel, a power switch located on each panel must be activated.

Once the panels are completely energized, the emergency condenser condensate return valve and steam supply valve controls can be utilized.
