ITEN REACTOR RIP SYSTEM REL
- BILIT, N-LINE TESTING INTRODUCTION AND SUGARY Generic Letter 83-28 was issued by NRC on July 8, 1983, indicating actions to be taken by applicants and licensees based on the generic implications of the Salem ATWS events.
Item 4.5 states a staff position which requires on-line functional testing of the reactor trip system, including independent testing of the diverse trip features of the reactor trip breakers, for all plants.
Item 4.5.2 requires applicants and licensees with plants not currently designed to permit this peri-odic on-line testing to justify not making modifications to permit such testing.
By letter dated November 4, 1983, the licensee, Rochester Gas and Electric Company, responded to the staff position regarding Item 4.5.2 of Gene~ic Letter 83-28.
Our review of this response finds it to be acceptable.
EVALUATION The licensee states that the R.
E. Ginna Nuclear Power Plant will perform on-line testing of the Reactor Trip System and that independent testing of the undervoltaae A'
~
and shunt trip attachments will be conducted on an annual or refueling basis.
The NRC staff has previously reviewed and found that the design allows on-line independent testina of the undervoltage and shunt trip devices.
The licensee's proposal to conduct such testing at annual or refueling intervals will be reviewed as part of Generic Letter 85-09 and Item 4.5.3 of Generic Letter 83-?8.
