3/4.8 ELECTRICAL POWER SYSTEMS BASES 3/4.8. 1 3/4.8.2 and 3/4.8. 3 A. C.
SOURCES D. C SOURCES and ONSITE POWER DISTRIBUTION SYSTEMS The OPERABILITY of the A.C. and D.C. power sources and associated distribution systems during operation ensures that sufficient power will be avai'table to supply the safety related equipment required for 1) the safe shutdown of the facility and 2) the mitigation and control of accident condi" tions within the facility.
The minimum specified independent and redundant A.C. and D.C. power sources and distribution systems satisfy the requirements of General Design Criterion 17 of Appendix "A" to 10 CFR 50.
The ACTION requirements specified for the levels of degradation of the power sources provide restriction upon continued facility operation commen-surate with the level of degradation.
The OPERABILITY of the power sources are consistent with the initia'1 condition assumptions of the safety analyses and are based upon maintaining at least one redundant set of onsite A.C.
and D.C. power sources and associated distribution systems OPERABLE during accident conditions coincident with an assumed loss of offsite power and single failure of the other onsite A.C. source.
The A.C. and D.C. source a1lowable out"of" service times are based on Regulatory Guide 1.93, "Availabilityof Electrical Power Sources,"
December 1974.
When one diesel generator is inoperable, there is an additional ACTION requirement to verify that all required systems, subsystems,
- trains, components and devices, that depend on the remaining
'PERABLE diesel generator as a source of emergency power, are also
- OPERABLE, and that the steam-driven auxiliary feedwater pump is OPERABLE.
This require-ment is intended to provide assurance that a loss of offsite power event will not result in a complete loss of safety function of critical systems during the period one of the diesel generators is inope'rable.
The term verify as used in this context means to administratively check by examining logs or other information to determine if certain components are out-of-service for maintenance or other reasons.
It does not mean to perform the surveillance requirements needed to demonstrate the OPERABILITY of the component.
The OPERABILITY of the minimum specified A.C. and D.,C.
power sources and associated distribution systems during shutdown and refueling ensures that
- 1) the facility can be maintained in. the shutdown or refueling condition for extended time periods and 2) sufficient instrumentation and control. capability is available for monitoring and maintaining the unit status.
The Surveillance Requirements for demonstrating the OPERABILITY of the
, diesel generators are in accordance with the recommendations of Regulatory Guides 1.9 "Selection of Diesel Generator Set Capacity for Standby Power

NO SIGNIFICANTHAZARDS CONSIDERATIONS DETERMINATION BACKGROUND On July 2, l984, NRC issued Generic Letter 84-!5 (Proposed Staff Actions to Improve and Maintain Diesel Generator Reliability). This Generic Letter presents NRC's conclusion that the frequency of diesel generator cold fast start surveillance tests from ambient conditions should be reduced to prevent premature diesel engine degradation, and encourages licensees to submit changes to their Technical Specifications to accomplish a reduction in the number of cold fast start surveillance tests from ambient conditions.
Generic Letter 84-l5 also presented NRC's conclusion that excessive testing results in degradation of diesel engines, and NRC encouraged licensees to propose Technical Specifications to delete the requirements for testing diesel generators while emergency core cooling equipment is inoperable.
Typical Technical Specifications, as well as an elaboration of the example performance Technical Specifications proposed to maintain reliability levels, were included with the Generic Letter.
On April 25, l985, NRC issued Amendment No. 48 to Facility Operating License No. NPF-7 for North Anna Unit 2.
The amendment revised the emergency diesel generator Technical Specifications by reducing the required testing.
The changes reduced the parameters for each test, reduced the number of tests, and applied to both routine surveillance and special tests.
North Anna Unit 2 had requested the amendment based on diesel generator failures that had occurred and had been attributed to the excessive testing requirements, and based on recommendations identified in Generic Letter 84-I 5.
On August 27, l985, FPL submitted a request to amend the St. Lucie Unit 2 Technical Specifications to be similar to the North Anna Unit 2, Amendment No.
48 Technical Specifications.
As a result of NRC review and further discussions with NRC, the August 27, l985 application had to be revised.
This application addresses all comments/concerns identified thus far by NRC.

TECHNICALSPECIFICATION CHANGES 3.8.I. I LCO: a.
A footnote has been added to allow a Unit I startup transformer, when not being used on Unit I, to satisfy the Operability requirements.
This is consistent with the existing St. Lucie Unit 2 Technical Specification 3.l.l.l ACTION: f. which is being deleted for conformance to the North Anna Unit 2 format.
3.8.I. I ACTION: a.
This Action Statement has been changed to read exactly like North Anna Unit 2.
3.8.I. I ACTION: b.
This Action Statement has been changed to read exactly like North Anna Unit 2.
3.8. I. I ACTION: c.
This Action Statement has been changed to read exactly like North Anna Unit 2, and to correct a typo in the North Anna spec.
3.8.I. I ACTION: d.
The Action Statement has been changed to read exactly like North Anna Unit 2.
3.8.I. I ACTION: e.
This Action Statement has been changed to read exactly like North Anna Unit 2.
3.8.I. I ACTION: f.
This Action Statement has been deleted for consistency with North Anna Unit 2.
- However, the footnote added to 3.8.I.I LCO: a.
in essence is the current ACTION: f.
4.8.I.I.2a.4 This specification was changed to delete the fast cold start requirement on the Table 4.8-l test frequency, therefore, reducing the frequency of diesel generator fast cold starts.
The 900 l8 RPM corresponds to the 60+- l.2 Hz.
These changes are consistent with Generic Letter 84-I 5 recommendations and similar to what NRC approved for North Anna Unit 2.
4.8.I.I.2a.5 This specification was changed to allow gradually loading the diesel generator and to include a load band (3385-3485 kW).
The 3385 kW value is greater than the worst case FSAR value of 3260 kW.

4.8.I.I.2d.
The present specification was moved to 4.8.I.I.2e. I2.
A new specification was added to reduce the diesel generator test frequency for fast cold starts and loading.
Diesel generator starts from a simulated loss of offsite power, loss of offsite power in conjunction with an ESF actuation test signal and an ESF actuation test signal by itself are verified under Tech Spec 4.8.I.I.2a.4.,
and therefore not repeated here.
The 3385-3485 kW load band is discussed above.
4.8.I.I.2e.7 This specification was changed to read the same as North Anna Unit 2 with the appropriate St. Lucie Unit 2 specific numbers included.
4.8.I.I.2e.8 This specification change is to correct the 2000-hour rating value.
The correct 2000-hour rating per the vendor technical manual is 3935 kW, and not 3985 as currently shown in the Technical Specifications.
This change is editorial only.
4.8.I.I.2e.l 2.
This specification was added and is the current specification 4.8.I.I.2d. except that the l2 month surveillance interval is changed to an I8 month interval.
The electropneumatic timing relays which required the l2 month surveillance interval have been replaced with Agastat DSC solid state devices which are more accurate and reliable and need only be verified on an I8 month interval per Standard Technical Specifications.
TABLE 4.8-I This table was changed to read the same as North Anna Unit 2.
4.8.I.2 This change is editorial in that Specification 4.8.I.I.3
~Re orts does not demonstrate Operability of the Diesel Generators.
BASES 3/4.8 These changes include Generic Letter 84-l5 and Amendment No. 48 to Facility Operating License NPF-7 for North Anna Unit 2 as additional Bases for diesel generator testing.

CONCLUSIONS:
As indicated
- above, the changes are either editorial/administrative
- changes, changes similar to changes already approved by NRC, or changes based on NRC recommendations included in Generic Letter 84-I5.
Examples (i), (vii) and (iii) to the extent that NRC has previously found such changes acceptable, of the staff procedure for determination of no significant hazards considerations apply to this amendment request.
For these reasons it has been determined that these changes involve no significant hazards considerations.
SAFETY EVALUATION The proposed changes to the Technical Specifications do not involve an unreviewed safety question because:
I.
a.
The probability of the occurrence of an accident previously evaluated in the FSAR has not been affected since the diesel generators are not considered in determining the probabilities of accidents.
'I b.
The consequences of an accident previously evaluated in the FSAR have not been adversely affected.
Reducing the test frequency and modifying the starting requirements to be consistent with the diesel manufacturer's recommendations are intended to enhance diesel reliability by minimizing severe test conditions which can lead to premature failures.
c.
The probability of a malfunction of equipment important to safety previously evaluated in the FSAR has been reduced since the severe test requirements have been reduced which will result in increased diesel engine reliability.
d.
The consequences of a malfunction of equipment important to safety have not changed since the new surveillance requirements will not affect the operation or operability of the diesels or any other safety related equipment.
2o ao The possibility of an accident of a different type than analysed in the FSAR has not been created since the change affects frequency starting and load practices during testing only and has no impact on actual accident analysis.
b.
The possibility of a malfunction of equipment important to safety of a different type than any analyzed in the FSAR has not been created for the reason given in I.c.
3o ao The margin of safety as defined in the basis for any Technical Specification is not reduced by the proposed changes.
The changes in the testing requirements do not affect the capacity of the diesels to perform their function.
The purpose of the change is to increase diesel engine reliability.
