SUBJECT:

Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station Docket No. 50-346, License No. NPF-3 Hiqh Frequen cv Supplement to Seismic Hazard Screeninq Report. se to NRC Reouest for lnformation Pu rsuant to 10 CFR 50.54(fl Reoardino Recom mendation 2.1 of the Near-Term Task F orce (NTTF) of lnsiohts from the Fu ima Dai-ichi Accident (CAC Nos. MF3728)

On March 12,2012, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) issued a Request for lnformation pursuant to 10 CFR 50.54(f) (Reference 1) to all power reactor licensees.

The required response section of Enclosure 1 of Reference 1 indicated that licensees should provide a seismic hazard evaluation and screening report within 1.5 years from the date of the letter for central and eastern United States (CEUS) nuclear power plants.

By letter dated May 7 ,2013 (Reference 2), the NRC extended the date to submit the report to March 31 ,2014.

By letter dated May 9, 2014 (Reference 3), the NRC transmitted the results of the screening and prioritization review of the seismic hazards reevaluation report for Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station (DBNPS) submitted by letter dated March 31,2414 (Reference 4). In accordance with the screening, prioritization, and implementation details repoft (SPID) (References 5, 6, and 7), and Augmented Approach guidance (Reference 2), the reevaluated seismic hazard is used to determine if additional seismic risk evaluations are warranted for a plant. Specifically, the reevaluated horizontal ground motion response spectrum (GMRS) at the control point elevation is compared to the existing safe shutdown earthquake (SSE) or lndividual Plant Examination for External Events (IPEEE) High Confidence of Low Probability of Failure (HCLPF)

Spectrum (HlS) to determine if a plant is required to perform a high frequency confirmation evaluation. As noted in Enclosure 2 of Reference 3, DBNPS is to conduct a limited scope high frequency evaluation (confirmation).

Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station L-17-233 Page 2 Wilhin Reference 3, the NRC acknowledged that these limited scope evaluations will require additional development of the assessment process. The Nuclear Energy lnstitute (NEl) submitted an Electric Power Research lnstitute (EPRI) report titled, High Frcquency Program: Application Guidance for Functional Confirmation and Fngility Evaluation (EPRI 30020A4396,,} for NRC review and endorsement (References I and 9).

NRC endorsement was provided by Reference 10. Reference 11 provided the NRC final seismic hazard evaluation screening determination results and the associated schedules for submittal of the remaining seismic hazard evaluation activities.

The enclosure to this letter provides the High Frequency Evaluation Confirmation Report for DBNPS that confirms that all high frequency susceptible equipment evaluated with the scoping requirements and criteria for seismic demand have adequate seismic capacity. Therefore, no additional modifications or evaluations are necessary.

The enclosure provides the requested information in response to Reference 1 associated with NTTF Recommendation 2.1 Seismic evaluation criteria.

There are no new regulatory commifnents contained in this letter. lf there are any questions or if additional information is required, please contact Mr. Thomas A. Lentz, Manager- Fleet Licensing, at 330-3154810.

I declare under penalty of perjury that the foregoing is true and correct. Executed on August A , 2017.

SUMMARY

The purpose of this report is to provide information as requested by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) in its March 12,2012, letter issued to all power reactor licensees and holders of construction permits in active or deferred status (Reference l). In particular, this report provides information requested to address the High-Frequency Confirmation requirements of Item (4), Enclosure l, Recommendation2.l: Seismic, of the March 12,2012, letter (Reference l).

Following the accident at the Fukushima Dai-ichi nuclear power plant resulting from the March I l, 201l, Great Tohoku Earthquake and subsequent tsunami, the NRC established a Near-Term Task Force (NTTF) to conduct a systematic review of NRC processes and regulations and to detcrmine if the agency should make additional improvements to its regulatory system. The NTTF developed a set of recommendations intended to clariff and strengthen the regulatory framework for protection against natural phenomena. Subsequently, the NRC issued a 50.5a(fl letter on March 12, 2012 (Reference l), requesting information to assure that these recommendations are addressed by all U.S. nuclear power plants. The 50.54(f) letter requests that licensees and holders of construction permits under 10 CFR Part 50 reevaluate the seismic hazards at their sites against present-day NRC requirements and guidance. Included in the 50.54(f) letter was a request that licensees perfonn a "confirmation, if necessary, that SSCs, which may be affected by high-frequency ground motion, will maintain their functions important to safety."

EPRI 1025287, "Seismic Evaluation Guidance: Screening, Prioritization and lmplementation Details (SPID) for the resolution of Fukushima Near-Term Task Force Recommendation 2.1:

Seismic" (Reference 6) provided screening, prioritization, and implementation details to the U.S. nuclear utility industry for responding to the NRC 50.54(0 letter. This repoft was developed with NRC participation and was subsequently endorsed by the NRC. The SPID AESGonculffng

Following the accident at the Fukushima Dai-ichi nuclear power plant resulting from the March I l, 201 I , Great Tohoku Earthquake and subsequent tsunami, the NRC established a NTTF to conduct a systematic review of NRC processes and regulations and to determine if the agency should make additional improvements to its regulatory system. The NTTF developed a set of recommendations intended to clariff and strenglhen the regulatory framework for protection against natural phenomena. Subsequently, the NRC issued a 50.5a(fl letter on March 12,2fr12 (Reference l), requesting information to assure that these recommendations aro addressed hy all U.S, nuclear power plants. The 50.54(f) letter requests that licensees and holders of construction permits under 10 CFR Part 50 reevaluate the seismic hazards at their sites against present-day NRC requirements and guidance. Included in the 50.54(f) letter was a request that licensees perfoffn a "confirmation, if necessary, that SSCs, which may be affected by high-frequency ground motion, will maintain their functions important to safety."

Final screening identiffingplants needing to perform a High-Frequency Confirmation was provided by NRC in a letter dated October 27,2015 (Reference 2).

On March 31, 2014, DBNPS submitted a reevaluated seismic hazard to the NRC as a part of the Seismic Hazard and Screening Report (Reference 4). By letter dated August 25,2015, the NRC staff concluded that the GMRS that was submitted adequately characterizes the reevaluated seismic hazard for the DBNPS site (Reference 20). The seismic hazard was later reevaluated under the Expedited Seismic Evaluation Process @SEP) and submiued to the NRC on December 19, 2014 (Reference 13). The ESEP was accepted by the NRC by letter dated October 19,2015 (Reference l4). By letterdated October 27,2015 (Reference 2), theNRC transmitted the results of the screening and prioritization review of the seismic hazards reevaluation.

This report describes the High-Frequoncy Confirmation evaluation undertaken for DBNPS using the methodologies in EPRI 3002004396, "High Frequency Program, Application Guidance for Functional Confirmation and Fragility Evaluation," as endorsed by the NRC in a letter dated September 17, 2015 (Reference 3).

The objective of this report is to provide summary information describing the High-Frequency Confirmation evaluations and results.

Section 4.1 of Reference 8 provided general steps to follow for the High-Frequency Confirmation component evaluation. Accordingly, the following topics are addressed in the subsequent sections of this report:

. DBNPS safe shutdown earthquake (SSE) and GMRS Information o Selection of components and a list of specific compontrnts for High-Frequency Confirmation o Estimation of seismic demand for subject components r Estimation of seismic capacity for subject components t Summary of subject components' high-frequency evaluations

. Summary of Results 1.4 PLnr'rr ScRrnt{Iuc The DBNPS submitted the Seismic Hazard and Screening Report in Response to the NRC Request forlnformation Pursuantto 10 CFR 50.54 (f) on March, 312014 (Reference 4). By letter dated August 25,2A15, the NRC staff concluded that the GMRS that was submitted adequately characterizes the reevaluated seismic hazard for the DBNPS site (Reference 20).

The NRC final screening determination letter concluded (Reference 2) that the GMRS to SSE comparison at the DBNPS resulted in a need to perform a High-Frequency Confirmation in accordance with the screening criteria in the SPID (Reference 6).

Subsequent to the March 31, 2014 submittal, the seismic hazard was updated considering site specific damping in rock. The updated seismic hazard is the basis for the ESEP Reports submitted by FirstEnergy Nuclear Operating Company (FENOC) on December 19, 2014 (Reference l3), and also used in the SPRA. The ESEP was accepted by the NRC by letter dated October 19,2015 (Reference l4).

The difference in the GMRS results is attributed to the material damping used for the rock material over the upper 500 feet (ft). While the GMRS reported in the March 2014 submittal is based on the low strain damping of approximately 3.2 percent over a depth of 500 ft below the Reactor Building (RB) foundation, the GMRS used in the ESEP limits this damping value to the upper 100 ft where the rock is considered as weathered or fractured. Below this depth, a low strain damping of 1.0 percent is used based on the unweathered shale dynamic properties from Stokoe et al. (Reference l9).

An optimized evaluation process is applied that focuses on achieving a safe and stable plant state following a seismic event. As described in Reference 8, this state is achieved by confirming that key plant safety functions critical to immediate plant safety are preserved (reactor trip, reactor vessel inventory and pressure control, and core cooling) and that the plant operators have the necessary power available to achieve and maintain this state immediately following the seismic event (AC/DC power support systems).

Within the applicable functions, the components that would need a High-Frequency Confirmation are contact control devices subject to intermittent states in seal-in or lockout circuits. Circuits that require two simultaneous relay chaffers in order to reposition or lock-out a component are deemed improbable. However, if one set of contacts may seal-in, the second set of contacts were still analyzed. Conhol switches and local pushbuttons are not subject to high-frequency chatter and thus are not considered. This analysis is based on the plant operating at 100% power and all normal equipment is available and in the normal configuration; i.e., no equipment is out of service, o.9., for maintenance or testing.

Accordingly, the objective of the review as stated in Section 4.2.1 of Reference I is to determine if seismic induced high-frequency relay chatter would prevent the completion of the following key functions.

2.1 Rnncron Trur/SCRAM The reactor trip/SCRAM function is identified as a key function in Reference I to be considered in the High-Frequency Confirmation. Thb same report also states that the design requirements preclude the application of seal-in or lockout circuits that prevent reactor trip/SCRAM functions and that no high-frequency review of the reactor trip/SCRAM systems is necessary.

The focus of the review was contact control devices that could lead to a significant leak path (valves opening or the inability to close the valves). Check valves in series with active valves would prevent significant leaks due to misoperation of the active valve; therefore, SILO circuit reviews were not required for those active valves.

Reactor coolant system/reactor vessel inventory control system reviews were performed for valves associated with the following functions:

I Pressurizer Safety Valves (PORV, Sample Lines, High Point Vents)

. Letdown Line Valves

. Low Pressure Injection / Core Flood Tank Line Valves

. High Pressure Injection Line Valves

. Reactor Coolant Pump Seal Return Isolation Valves Pressurizer Safetv Valves PORV, Sample Lines, Hish Point Vents)

Power-Operated Relief Valve (RC2A [PORV])

The PORV is a solenoid-operated pilot valve controlled via relays, which are controlled by reactor coolant system (RCS) pressure relays. The RCS pressure relays are solid state and do not seal-in, thus there is no seal-in or lockout relays in this logic which would cause a loss of RCS inventory out of the PORV.

IRC,S Sample Line Valves (RC21?A, RC239B, RC240A, RC240B, RC200, and RC4632)

These are noffnally-closed motor-operated valves (MOVs) and solenoid valve (RC4632). In order to lose RCS inventory through the sample line, two to three valves would need to open.

The MOVs' open circuitry are controlled by hand switches which are not susceptible to chatter, while the closed circuit can be controlled by the hand switch or (for RC240A and RC240B) a Safety Features Actuation System (SFAS) signal. Relay chatter of the MOV contactor (42lO) is possible and could lead to a potential of a very small leak path of the RCS to the Quench Tank or lreGonsulting

BF I I 26142 (RC239A), BF rl27l42 (RC239B), and BF I 128/42 (RC240B). Solenoid Valve RC4632 has a relay (SV4632/4) whose contacts could chatter, seal-in, and open the valve; therefore, that relay was included for evaluation.

High Point Vent Valves (RC4608A, RC46088, RC46I0A, and RC4610B)

RC46084, RC46088, RC46I0A, and RC46I0B are all normally-closed solenoid valves. They are controlled by control switches in the control room, which are not susceptible to chatter.

There are no seal-in contacts to cause the valves to open. Therefore, there are no SILO devices susceptible to chatter.

Letdown Line Valves Letdown Line Valves (MU?B, MUIA, MUIB, MUZA, and MUj)

MUZB, MU2A, MUIA, and MUIB are normally-open MOVs. MU3 is a normally-open air-operated valve. To isolate letdown either MU2B, MU2A, or MU3, or the combination of MUIA and MUIB need to close.

Letdown Isolation Valve MU2B can be closed by the hand switch. Additionally, the valve will automatically close if there is high pressure at the Reactor Coolant Letdown Cooler Component Cooling Outlet Valve or high temperature on the Letdown Line Delay Coil. The closing coil does have seal-in contacts, but the limit switch contacts and torque switch contacts open when the valve is closed, releasing the seal-in. Additionally, for this purpose closing the valve is beneficial and these contacts can be screened. The open portion of the MU2B circuit is controlled by a hand switch only. Since the valve is normally open, chatter of the 42lO contacts could only re-open the valve after the valve had started to close. The open coil does have seal-in contacts, but the limit switch contacts and torque switch contacts open when the valve is open (returned to its normal position), releasing the seal-in. Control of the valve is returned to its hand switch and the automatic interlocks; therefore, this relay was not evaluated.

Additionally, if there is a SFAS Level 2 signal (RCS pressure below 1600 PSI or Containment Pressure greaterthan 18.7 PSI), the SFAS contacts will close to energize the 42lC coil. The closing coil does have seal-in contacts, but the limit switch contacts and torque switch contacts open when the valve is closed, releasing the seal-in. Additionally, for this pu{pose, closing the valve is beneficial so these contacts can be screened. The open portion of the MU2A circuit is controlled by the hand switch only. Since the valve is normally open, chatter of the 42lO contacts could only re-open the valve after the valve had started to close or is closed. The open coil does have seal-in contacts, but the limit switch contacts and torque switch contacts open when the valve is open (returned to its normal position), releasing the seal-in. Control of the valve is returned to its hand switch; therefore, this relay was not evaluated.

Letdown Cooler Inlet Valves MUIA and MUIB can be closed by the hand switch. Additionally, if there is high pressure at the associated Reactor Coolant Letdown Cooler Component Cooling Outlet Valve or high temperature on the Letdown Line Delay Coil, the valve will automatically close. The closing coil does have seal-in contacts, but the limit switch contacts and torque switch contacts open when the valve is closed, releasing the seal-in. Additionally, for this purpose, closing the valve is beneficial so these contacts can be screened. The open portion of the MUIA and MUIB circuit is controlled by position of the Component Cooling Water to the Decay Heat Exchanger Valve (CC1409, CC14l0). If CCl409 (CCl4l0) is fully opon, then MUIA (MUIB) will receive an open signal sincethe 33/ao contactswould close. The 42/O open coil for MUIA (MUIB) does have seal-in contacts, butthe limit switch contacts and torque switch contacts open with the valve is open (returned to its normal position), releasing the seal-in. Because the position switch contacts in this circuit are opcn when the valve is in the contacts could only open MUIA (MUIB) afterthe valve had startedto close. Therefore, the MUIA/I{UIB 42lO relay was not evaluated.

Due to the interlock between CCl409/CCl4l0 and MUIAA{UIB, the circuits for CC1409/CCl4l0 were also reviewed. These valves are noffnally-open MOVs that can he closed using the hand switch for MUIA/MUIB through time delay relay contacts in the MUIA/IVIUIB closing circuit. The time delay relay contacts do not seal-in so they can be screened.

Closure of CCl409/CCl410 does not prevent MUIA/IvIUIB from closing and therefore has no impact on letdown isolation. Therefore, the CCl409/CCl410 42lC relay contacts can be screened. The open portion of the CCl409/CC14l0 circuit is controlled bythe MUIA/I{UlB hand switch only. Since the valve is normally open, chatterof the CC 1409/CC 14 I 0 42lO contacts could only re-open the valve after the valve had started to close. The open coil does have seal-in contacts, but the limit switch contacts and torque switch contacts open when the valve is open (returned to its normal position), releasing the seal*in.

Control of the valve is returned to the hand switch; therefore, this relay was not evaluated.

Pneumatically operated MU3 is normally open; when the solenoid is de-energized the valve will close. Power will be removed via SFAS Level 2 signal should a signal be generated, resulting in opening of contacts causing the valve to close. The valve can also be de-energized if the accumulator has low pressurs causing the pressure switch contacts to open. Chatter of either the SFAS contact or the pressure switch can result in closure of the valve, which is a beneficial result for this analysis. Thereforeo there are no seal-in or lock-out relays present that would prevent MU3 from closing.

Low Pressure IniectionlCore Flood Line Valves Check Valves There are two core flood tank to reactor coolant system check valves (CF30/CF3l) inside containment preventing flow from the RCS into the Low Pressure Injection/ Core Flood line.

The check valves are not chatter sensitive and can be credited to remain closed; thus, these valves do not need to be analyzed.

DHI I and DHIZ The two RCS to decay heat system MOVs DHI I and DHl2 arc normally-closed MOVs in series. If both were to unexpectedly open, it could result in an Inter-System Loss of Coolant Accident (ISLOCA). Therefore, these valves were reviewed for SILO devices. DHI I and DHl2 have control power removed during plant heat up and power operations by opening a set of contacts (control room switch) preventing power from passing to the rest of the circuit; thus, lESGonsulting

Additionally, a high pressure switch in the open circuitry would have open contacts while at power. DHI I and DH12 were found to not have any relays that could seal-in and cause the valve to reposition open without simultaneous chatter from the control power contacts and the pressure switch contacts.

With DHll and DHl2 remaining closed, an ISLOCA would be avoided and no relayswere evaluated for these valves.

Hish Pressure Iniection Valves Check Valves In each of the four High Pressure Injection lines into the reactor coolant system, there are two check valves in series inside containment (HP48/HP50, HP49/HP5I, HP56/HP58, and HP57/HP59) preventing flow from the RCS into the High Pressure Injection line. The check valves are not chatter sensitive and can be credited to remain closed; thus, these valves do not need to be analyzed.

Reactor Coolant Pump SeaI Return Valves Valves MU59A, MU59B, MU59C, and MU59D To isolate Seal Return, all MU59A-D valves need to close, MUsgA-D are all normally-open valves that need to reposition closed. MUS9A-D uses a similar control diagram such that a momentary chatter of the 42lC contacts would result in a closure of the valve. For this purpose closing the valve is beneficial and the 42lC contacts can be screened. There are limit switches that do not close unless the valve is some percentage closed or is closed, thus preventing the valve from opening due to a chatter of the 42lO contacts. Therefore, open position switches in the opening circuit prevent seal-in of the opening contactor auxiliary contact and no other contacts prevent valve closure via the control switch. Thus, these valves are not affected by seal-in or lock-out.

2.3 RB.+,croR VESSEL PRESSURE COr{TROL The reactor vessel pressure control function is identified as a key function in Reference 8 to be considered in the High-Frequency Confirmation. The same report also states that'orequired post lESGonsulting (iRrzzo

2734296-R-01.5 Reoision 0 lune L2,20L7 Pnse 25 of46 event pressure control is typically provided by passive devices" and that "no specific high-frequency component chatter review is required for this function." As confirmation, the pressure control function at Davis-Besse was reviewed.

The DBNPS RCS pressure control is provided by essential Pressurizer Heaters, the Power-Operated Relief Valve (PORV), and the Pressurizer Safety Valves (PSVs).

A review of the essential Pressurizer Heater control circuits found no relays that could seal-in or lock-out and prevent control room use of the heaters.

The PORV (RC2A) is a solenoid-operated pilot valve controlled via relays, which are controlled by RCS pressure relays. The RCS pressure relays are solid state and do not seal-in, thus there is no seal-in or lockout relays in this logic which would cause a loss of RCS inventory out of the PORV (and a reduction in pressure).

The PSVs are spring-operated valves that open when the RCS pressure exceeds the lift set point.

There are no relays that would seal-in or lock-out and cause the PSVs to open. Therefore, there are no relays that could impact RCS pressure control.

2.4 Conn Coor,Ir.tc The core cooling systems were reviewed for contact control devices in SILO circuits that would prevent at least a single train of non-AC power driven decay heat removal from functioning.

The initial need for decay heat removal and the related scope of consideration varies based on the plant's nuclear steam supply system (NSSS). The relay chatter impacts that could affect this function would be those that would cause the flow control valves to close and remain closed.

For Pressurized Water Reactor (PWR) plants, it is expected that the availability of an AC-independent (steam or diesel-driven) alternate/emergency feedwater pump to supply water to at least one steam generator will be sufficient to satisfy the immediate decay heat removal needs.

Therefore, for this evaluation, the following function needs to be checked: circuitry to detect and isolate flow to a faulted steam generator and MOVs relied upon for feeding the steam generator.

2734296-R-01,5 Ratision 0 lune 12,201.7 Pase 26 of46 The selection of contact devices for the Steam Driven Feedwater System ([SDFW] - Auxiliary Feedwater [AFW] at Davis-Besse] and Diesel-Driven Feedwater System ([DDFW] - Emergency Feedwater BFW] at Davis-Besse) were based on the premise that AFWIEFW operation is desired; thus, any SILO which would lead to AFWEFW operation is beneficial and thus does not meet the criteria for selection. Only contact devices which could render the AFWIEFW system inoperable were considered. A review of the AFW system was broken down into the steam side and the flow side.

The steam side included a review of the valves required to allow steam to pass from the steam generator to the Auxiliary Feed Pump Turbine (AFPT). The valves reviewed include MOVs MSl06, MSI06A, MSl07, and MSIO7A, and air-operated valves (AOVs) MS5889A, and MS58898. For the MOVs, there are contactors with potential to seal-in and prevent the Main Steam valves from going to their desired position (open); however, a torque switch would open once the valve has gone fully closed and clear the seal-in. After that point, the Steam and Feedwater Rupture Control System (SFRCS) would reposition the valve to the desired position.

The AOVs (MS5889A, MS5889B) fail open on loss of power to the associated solenoid valves.

SFRCS deenergizes the solenoids. There are no relays in the circuit which could chatter, seal-in, and prevent SFRCS from de-energizing the solenoid valves to allow the valves to open.

Therefore, there are no contact devices in the steam line valves to the AFPTs identified for evaluation. Additionally, if an air-operated Main Steam lsolation Valve (MSl00, MSl0l) fails to close during a seismic evento the open pathway could depressurize the associated steam generator and divert steam from the AFPT. Therefore, the circuits for MSl00 and MSlOl were reviewed. The spring-loaded AOVs fail closed on loss of power to the associated solenoid valves or on low air pressure. SFRCS deenergizes the solenoids to close the valves. There are no relays in the circuits which could chatter, seal-in, and prevent SFRCS from de-energizing the solenoid valves to cause the valves to close. Therefore, those valves were screened.

The flow side included a review of the valves required to move water from the safety-related feedwater source (service water) to the SGs. The Condensate Storage Tank is not seismically qualified and therefore is not credited during the seismic event. The valves reviewed include MOVs AF599, AF608, AF3869, AF3870, AF387l, AF3872, SWl382, and SWI383, and solenoid valves FV645l and FV6452. Additionally, the Service Water (SW) Pump circuits were reviewed. From review of the MOVs required to allow flow from the Auxiliary Feed Pumps to the Steam Generators there are some contactors with potential to seal-in and prevent the AFW lESGonsulting tiRtzzo

At that point, either SFRCS would reposition the valve to the desired position, or the SW valve would open when low suction pressure is sensed. Solenoid valves FV645l and FV6452 automatically throttle flow based on steam generator water level and the valves fail open on loss of power. A review of their circuits confirmed there are no relays whose contacts could chatter, seal-in, and prevent the valves from allowing the flow of water to the SGs.

A chatter analysis of the SW pump circuit breaker control circuits indicates the bus lockout, phase overcurrento and ground fault relays all could prevent automatic breaker closure following the seismic event and were identified for evaluation.

Since the diesel-driven EFW system is manually started and manually terminated by hand switch operation only, there are no contact devices in the pump circuit that meet the selection criteria.

The flow path was also reviewed and found to contain no contact devices that would seal-in or lock-out thus preventing flow to the Steam Generators. Steam relief from the SGs to the atmosphere will be done through local operator action of the Atmosphere Vent Valves (AVVs) using installed remote controllerso therefore relay chatter from the AVVs is irrelevant. In addition, there are no high-frequency sensitive devices within the control circuitry of the AVVs that would seal-in or lock-out and prevent manual operation of the AWs.

2.5 AC/DC Powrn Supronr Svsrrprs The AC and DC power support systems were reviewed for contact control devices in SILO circuits that prevent the availability of DC and AC power sources. The following AC and DC power support systems were reviewed:

. Emergency Diesel Generators (EDGs),

Electrical power, especially DC, is necessary to support achieving and maintaining a stable plant condition following a seismic event. DC power relies on the availability of AC power to lBSGonsulting

EPRI 3002004396 requires confirmation that the supply of emergency power is not challenged by a SILO device. The tripping of lockout devices or circuit breakers is expected to require some level of diagnosis to determine if the trip diagnose of the faulted condition could delay the restoration of emergency power.

In order to ensure contact chatter cannot compromise the emergency power system, control circuits were analyzed for the EDGs, Battery Chargers, Vital AC Inverters, and Switchgear/Load Centers/JvlCCs as necessary to distribute power from the EDGs to the Battery Chargers and EDG Ancillary Systems. General information on the arrangement of safety-related AC and DC systems, as well as operation of the EDGs, was obtained from the DBNPS UFSAR. The DBNPS EDGs provide emergency power to the safety-related busses. The DBNPS contains two trains of Class lE loads with one EDG for each train.

The analysis considers the reactor is operating at power with no equipment failures or LOCA prior to the seismic event. The EDGs are not operating but are available. The seismic event is presumed to cause a Loss of Offsite Power (LOOP) and a normal reactor SCRAM.

In response to bus under-voltage relaying detecting the LOOP, the Class lE control systems must automatically shed loads, start the EDGs, and sequentially load the Diesel Generators as designed. Ancillary systems required for EDG operation as well as Class lE battery chargers and inverters must function as necessary. The goal of this analysis is to identiff any vulnerable contact devices that could chatter during the seismic event, seal-in or lock-out, and prevent these systems from performing their intended safety-related function of supplying electrical power during the LOOP.

The following sections contain a description of the analysis for each element of the AC/DC Support Systems. Contact devices are identified by description in this narrative and apply to both trains.

E mergencv D ie+ el Generators The analysis of the EDGs is broken down into the generator protective relaying and diesel engine control. General descriptions of these systems and controls appear in the UFSAR.

2734296-R-015 Rutision 0 lune L2,2017 PaRe 29 of45 Generator Protective Relaying The control circuits for the EDG circuit breakers include bus lockout, EDG lockout, and phase over-current protective relays. Chatter in any of the bus lockout or EDG lockout relays may prevent closure of the EDG circuit breaker.

The bus lockout relay could actuate due to relay chatter, resulting in closure of contacts that would cause the EDG output breaker from closing and the EDG would not re-power the bus.

When the bus lockout relay is tripped, it prevents closure of the EDG, CCW pump, SW pump, and load center transformer circuit breakers.

The relays that could lead to a bus lockout include:

o Relays ACl03/5 l-1, AC103/5 IGS-1, ACl03/5 l-2, ACl03/5l-lx, ACl03/51-2, ACl03/51-3, ACl03l5lGS, and ACI l0/5lX can cause the bus lockout relay to actuate and prevent EDG 1 from loading the 4160 bus Cl_41.

I Relays ADI 03/5 l-1, AD103/5 ICS-l, ADl03/51-2, ADl03/5 l-lX, ADl03/51-2, AD103/51-3, ADl03/5lGS, and ADI l0/5lX can cause the bus lockout relay to actuate and prevent EDG 2 from loading the 4160 bus DI EA.

The EDG output breaker can be prevented from closing due to actuation of the over-current relay. The over-current relays AClDllSlV2DG or ADI01/51V2DG contacts could chatter and seal-in resulting in an energization of the EDG output breaker trip coil.

The EDG lockout relays are not actuated until after the EDG has started and reached at least 200 RPM. The current is stopped by the open contacts SS2X and KIX; thus, if there were chatter of any of the EDG protection circuits (ground over current, phase over current, differential, or engine auto shutdown) the lockout relays would not energize and seal-in. If chatter of the protection relays were to occur after the EDG was started due to under voltage and has reached 200 RPM, the R3 contacts would open and prevent the 86- l coil from being energized. Only chatter of the shutdown relay contacts (SDRX or SDRXI) could result in energizing the 86-2 coil and seal-in causing the EDG to shut down under those conditions.

{}Rtzzo

2734296-R-075 Reaision 0 lune 1.2, 201.7 Paxe 30 of45 The SFAS interlock can also cause the output breaker trip coil to energize. Chatter of the 94-l relay or chatter of R3Xl can cause the 94-l coil to energize thus causing the EDG trip coil to energize.

Diesel Engine Control Chatter analysis for the diesel engine control was performed on the start and shutdown circuits of each EDG. The start circuit is blocked by seal-in of the engine trouble SDRXI shutdown or start failure relays. Chatter of the seal-in contacts of these relays or other relay contacts that actuate the shutdown relay (SDR) may prevent EDG start.

The start failure relay (TDl) is actuated if the cooling water output pressure is less than 20 PSI, or Diesel Speed does not reach 200 RPM after 7 seconds following a start signal. If either of those conditions is not reached within 7 seconds, the fail to start coil (TDl) actuates causing the TDI contacts to close and energize the R2 contact resulting in passing current to the shutdown coils that seal-in and cause the generator to reduce speed. Chatter in the contacts of the R2 relay may also energize the shutdown relay (SDRX) and seal-in.

The EDG is emergency started by an under-voltage signal that closes2TZ-3 contacts l-2. Once closed the R3X coil is energized, closing the R3X contacts starting the redundant fuel pump, and energizing the RIX coil. The RIX coil then closes the RIX contacts, energizing the AVIA and AV2A coils which opens the air start solenoid valves and the engine starts to pick up in speed.

Once the engine reaches 40 RPM the SSIA contacts close, and the SSIX coils energize. As the EDG increases in speed, the SS2A contacts close energizing the SS2X coil at 200 RPM, the SS3A contacts close energizing the SS3 coil at 400 RPM, and the SS4A contacts close energizing the SS4 coil at 800 RPM.

As the engine comes up in speed, at 400 RPM, the field flash occurs from closure of the SS3 contacts, and the generator starts developing an output voltage. Once the field flash occurs, and voltage raises the CR3X coil is energized by a solid-state "V" relay (elecho-mechanical relay output contacts), causing the EDG output breaker to close. If the SS3 contacts would chatter and the EDG did not receive its start signal, the field flash could potentially burn itself out such that when called upon during emergency actuation, the field would not flash and voltage would not lESGonsulting

Chatter of the SDR R7 contacts could energize the EDG output breaker trip coil and is therefore included for evaluation.

Chatter of the 86-2 DG relay contacts could lead to seal-in of the SDR. Chatter of the overspeed trip relay (OTR) contacts themselves can also lead to seal-in of the SDR. The emergency stop control switch is non-vulnerable. Chatter from the relays for the low lube oil pressure and high jacket water temperature switches could lead to seal-in of the SDR.

Chaffer of the switches controlling low lube oil pressure or high jacket water temperature are not susceptible to chatter, thus they would not lead to seal-in of the SDR.

Note that during Diesel Generator emergency operation, the Safety Features Actuation starto Under-voltage start, and control room manual start, contacts block the low lube oil pressure and high jacket water temperature chatter; however, this feature is not operating before the start signal is given and thus will not prevent the seal-in of the engine trouble SDR should coincident chatter occur in these circuits prior to DG start.

EDG Svslems A number of components and systems are required to start and operate the EDGs. For identiffing electrical contact devices, only systems and components which are electrically controlled are analyzed. Information in the UFSAR was used as appropriate for this analysis.

Starting Air Based on Diesel Generator availability as an initial condition, the passive air reservoirs are presumed pressurized and the only electrically active components in this system required to operate are the air start solenoids, which are covered under the EDG engine control analysis above.

2734296-R-075 Reaision 0 lune L2,201.7 Page 32 of46 Combustion Air Intake and Exhaust The combustion air intake and exhaust for the Diesel Generators are passive systems which do not rely on electrical control.

Lube Oil The Diesel Generators use engine-driven mechanical lubrication oil pumps which do not rely on electrical control. The lube oil system also contains AC Turbo Oil pumps which circulate the lube oil. These pumps do not contain seal-in or lockout relays. These pumps would stop if there is a thermal overload condition. In addition, there are DC Turbo Oil pumps which circulate the lube oil and start on low lube oil pressure and stop after lube oil pressure has been raised. The DC oil pumps do not contain seal-in or lockout relays and will function as required in a seismic event.

Fuel Oil The Diesel Generators use engine-driven mechanical pumps and DC-powered auxiliary pumps to supply fuel oil to the engines from the day tanks. The day tanks are rc-supplied using AC-powered Diesel Oil Transfer Pumps. Chatter analysis of the control circuits for the electrically-powered auxiliary and transfer pumps concluded they do not include SILO devices.

The mechanical pumps do not rely on electrical control and therefore there is no impact due to relay chatter.

Cooling Water This system consists ofjacket water and an aftercooler. The aftercooler is cooled by jacket water and the jacket water is cooled by Component Cooling Water (CCW). The CCW is then cooled by SW. Engine-driven pumps operating in the cooling loops are credited when the engine is operating. These mechanical pumps do not rely on electrical control. The electric jacket water pump is only used during shutdown periods and is thus not included in this analysis.

Three CCW and SW pumps provide cooling water to the heat exchangers associated with the two EDGs. [n automatic mode these pumps are started via closure of the EDG Output breaker.

This momentary chatter does not result in an extensive delay and is therefore not evaluated in this analysis. A chatter analysis of the CCW and SW pump circuit breaker control circuits indicates the bus lockout, phase overcurrent, and ground fault relays all could prevent automatic (sequential) breaker closure following the seismic event. These breakers are ACll3 (CC\ry Pump l), ADl13 (CCW Pump 2), ACl08/ADl08 (Swing CCW Pump 3), ACl07 (SW Pump l), AD107 (SW Pump 2), and ACl09/ADl09 (Swing SW Pump 3).

Ventilation Ventilation for each Diesel Generator Enclosure is provided via two supply fans. In automatic mode these fans are started when the EDG reaches 40 RPM. This permissive does not prevent the ventilation fans from running and does not contain a SILO device. Successful ventilation also requires proper damper alignment. No SILO devices were found to prevent the dampers from opening as required.

Batterv Chargers Chatter analysis on the battery chargers was performed using information from the UFSAR as well as vendor schematic diagrams. Each battery charger has an under-voltage relay on the input side set to alarm when battery charge input voltage drops below the design capability of the batteries, and one under-voltage alarm relay on the output side. Contacts l-3 of Relay K301 can operate the trip coil of the battery charger 480VAC input breaker only if the Low AC Voltage Disconnect Switch is enabled, which is done by taking the switch to Test. On the in-service battery charger, this switch is never in TEST, so the K30l contacts cannot energize the trip coil.

The operate coil of this relay is controlled by a non-vulnerable solid-state circuit. The Master Control Board does not have any relays installed; therefore, no further review is required.

Contacts shown on the Battery Charger Schematic Drawings were determined to have no adverse effect on the capability of a battery charger to provide an output voltage. No other vulnerable contact device affects the availability of the battery chargers.

Switcheear, Load Centery-, and MCCs Power distribution from the EDGs to the necessary electrical loads (Battery Chargerso Inverters, Fuel Oil Pumps, and EDG Ventilation Fans) was traced to identiff any SILO devices which could lead to a circuit breaker trip and intemrption in power.

The medium- and low-voltage power circuit breakers in switchgear and load centers supplying power to loads identified in this section are included in this evaluation.

The Molded-Case Circuit Breakers used in the motor control centers are seismically rugged; and DC power distribution is via non-vulnerable disconnect switches. The only circuit breakers affected by contact devices (not already covered) were those that distribute power from the essential busses to the load centers. A chaffer analysis of the control circuits for these circuit breakers indicates the bus lockout, overcurrent, and ground fault relays all could prevent automatic (sequential) breaker closure following the seismic event.

It is noted in Refersnce I that a Foundation Input Response Spectrum (FIRS) *ay be necessary to evaluate buildings whose foundations are supported at elevations different than the Control Point elevation. However, for sites founded on rock, per Reference 8, "The Control Point GMRS developed for these rock sites are typically appropriate for all rock-founded structures and additional FIRS estimates are not deemed necessary for the High-Frequency Confirmation effort.'o For sites founded on soil, the soil layers will shift the frequency range of seismic input towards the lower frequency range of the response spectrum by engineering judgment.

Therefore, for purposes of high-frequency evaluations in this report, the GMRS is an adequate substitute for the FIRS for sites founded on soil.

The DBNPS site bedrock occurs at elevation (EL) 555 ft and consists of massive and bedded dolomite layers. The deepest foundation elevation of these structures is EL 540 ft and is associated with the RB. Therefore, the GMRS, Control Point elevation is taken to be the base of the RB foundation, EL 540 ft. The bedrock immediately underlying the bottom of the RB foundation (EL 540 ft) is characterized by shear-wave velocities (Vs) of about 5,200 feet per second (ff/s).

The applicable buildings at DBNPS are founded on rock; therefore, the Control Point GMRS is representative of the input at the building foundation.

The horizontal GMRS values are provided in Table 3-2.

o The time for a shear wave to travel through each soil layer is calculated by dividing the layer depth (*) by the shear-wave velocity of the layer (Vsi).

t The total time for a wave to travel from a depth of 30m to the surface is calculated by adding the travel time through each layer from depths of 0m to 30m (E[diA/sr]).

o The velocity of a shear wave traveling from a depth of 30m to the surface is therefore the total distance (30m) divided by the total time; i.e., Vs30 (30m)/E[diA/s,].

The average Vs in the upper 30 meters (m) (100 ft) is used to weight the WUS and CEUS VIH values. The average Vs in the upper 30 meters (Vs30) for EL 540 ft is 4548 fl/sec (1386 meters per second [r/s]). The Vs30 for WUS and CEUS rock sites are 520 m/s and 2800 m/s, respectively (Reference 16). The V/H ratios at EL 540 ft use a weight of (2800-1386y(2800-520):0.62 for WUS V/H ratios and

( I 3 86-520y(28 00-5 20;:9.3 I for CEUS V/H ratios.

The V/H ratios from Reference 16 are also dependent on peak ground acceleration (PGA). The spectral ordinate of horizontal FIRS at 100 Hertz (Hr) is used as the PGA to determine the V/H ratios. For EL 540 ft, the 100-Hz SA for the horizontal FIRS is 0.19939. Because this value is at the boundary between two PGA-level bins (i.e., < 0.2g and 0.2 - 0.5g) corresponding to different V/t{ spectral ratios in Reference 16, the arithmetic average of the V/H spectral ratio for the two bins is used.

The vertical GMRS is then calculated by multiplying the mean V/H ratio at each frequency by the horizontal GMRS acceleration at the corresponding frequency.

The V/FI ratios and VGMRS values are provided in Table 3-2 of this report.

Figure J-I below provides a plot of the horizontal GMRS, V/t{ ratios, and vertical GMRS for DBNPS.

The three general cahinet types are identified in Reference I and Appendix I of EPRI NP-7148 (Reference I l) assuming SYo in-cabinet response spectrum damping. EPRI NP-7148 (Reference 11) classified the cabinet types as high amplification structures such as switchgear panels and other similar large flexible panels, medium amplification structures such as control panels and conffol room benchboard panels and low amplification structures such as motor control centers.

All of the electrical cabinets containing the components subject to High-Frequency Confirmation (see Table B-1 inAppendix B) can be categorized into one of the in-cabinet amplification categories in Reference I as follows:

t MCCs Fl2A, Fl lA, and El lB are typical motor control center cabinets consisting of a lineup of several interconnected sections. Each section is a relatively naffow cabinet structure with height-to-depth ratios of about 4.5 that allow the cabinet framing to be efficiently used in flexure for the dynamic response loading, primarily in the front-to-back direction. This results in higher frame stresses and hence more damping which lowers the cabinet response. In addition, the subject components are not located on large unstiffened panels that could exhibit high local amplifications. These cabinets qualiff as low amplification cabinets.

a Switchgear cabinets Cl and Dl are large cabinets consisting of a lineup of several interconnected sections typical of the high amplification cabinet category. Each section is a wide box-type structure with height-to-depth ratios of about 0.87 and may include wide stiffened panels. This results in lower stresses and hence less damping which increases the enclosure response. Components can be mounted on the wide panels, which results in the higher in-cabinet amplification factors.

a Relay panels C3615, C3616, C3617 and C3618 are in lineups of three interconnected sections with moderate width. Each section consists of structures with height-to-depth ratios of about 1.8 which results in moderate frame stresses and damping. Relay panels C3621 and C3622 are slender panels mounted on the EDGs and braced slightly above their mid-heights.

Relay panel RC4607 is a small and lightrneight panel attached to a stiffened floor-mounted rack. The response levels are mid-range between motor control centers and switchgear and; therefore, these panels can be considered in the medium amplification category.

A3.0 Methodology The methodology in Reference A1 will be used to calculate Capacity to Pemand ratios for the subject relays, and contactors in the High Frequency range of 1540 Hz. The capacity is obtained from either EPRI HF Test program (Ref. A2), or from GERS (Refs. A8, A9 & A10), or other shake table tests (Refs. A5, A6, A7) if the EPRI Program did not include the specific relay model. The EPRI HF Test Program reports a representative average spectral acceleration (SA) in the high frequency range. \Mrile the capacities in References A5 thru A10 are for the Low Frequency region (i.e., 4.5-16 Hz), according to the conclusions in References A1 and A2, the Low Frequency capacities are always lower than the High Frequency capacities and therefore could be used conservatively in the HF confirmation program.

The seismic Demand to be used in this evaluation are the in-structure response spectra at the base of the equipment, amplified by amplification factors suggested in Reference A1 for the specific type of equipment.

Reference 43 provides the required 5% ISRS, wtrich were developed as part of the Seismic PRA program at Davis Besse Nuclear Povver Station Unit 1. !f there are sharp peak(s) in the ISRS in the frequency range of interest (15 jlz lo 40 Hz), these peaks are clipped in accordance with the guidelines in Reference A4.

Wrile not required for HF confirmation task, the C10% capacities are calculated and also reported here for each relay or contactor using guidance in Reference A11.
