Supply a copy of the surveillance test procedures with this completed questionnaire.

Additional Comments 1.

D/Gs were used intermittently during early plant operation (1970) for power generation..This practice has since been discontinued.

Currently power is generated only during surveillance testing or when plant Tech. Specs.

require one D/G to be in service.

2.

D/Gs must be manually sunchronized to their respective safeguard buses during surveillance testing.

3.

D/G tie breakers are closed auto'matically to safeguard buses only after off site power has been lost.

Times noted in O. l.a thru c are from bus de-energization (off site power) to bus voltage restoration by D/Gs.

Y.

General Su estions Briefly give constructive criticism or suggestions as to improvement in reliability of the diesel generators.

These

~ remarks may cover tests, maintenance, practices,

orders, policy, adjustments, etc.

l..

Allpersonnel who willbe associated with operating, maintaining and testing responsibilities be thoroughly and formally familiarized with the D/G's and their associated support and control systems.

2.

Strict adherence to manufacturers'aintenance recommendations for units, commensurate with running time hours.

3.

Develop a comprehensive series of surveillance procedures to fulfill

'the following requirements.

a.

at least yearly verify emergency start mode and proper automatic safeguard load assumption.

b.

at least yearly verify all protective alarm and trip circuitry functional.

c.

at least monthly synchronize units to outside power grid and load units to at least long term KW rating for a sufficient period of time to assure satisfactory operation.

In the event that both diesels are determined.to be inoperable, an orderly shutdown to the hot shutdown condition will commence immediately.

4.2 According to the Technical Specifications,

.(Paragraph 3.7.2b.),

if one of the diesels is out of service the r'eactor may be main-tained in the critical condition if the remaining diesel is run continuously. If. the remaining diesel was to be run continuously at no load, coking might-occur, making the diesel incapable of accepting heavy loading if needed.

On the other" hand the diesel could be run paral'lel to normal station power.

A'oss of outside power in:this case

however, would at least require the changing of the positions of the unit.-parallel switch and the,.manual-auto switch.

At best there would be some frequency and voltage fluctuations and at worst there exists the possibility of overcurrent and/or overspeed trips.

To avoid these difficulties, the diesel to be run should be run carrying a load of over 500 KW on one of its respective safeguard

busses, which in turn has been separated from its normal power supply.

This procedure is written to achieve this end.

5.0 PROCEDURE

5.1 Notify the load dispatcher of diesel start and loading.

5.2

'Insure that the "Auto-annual."'wit'ch; is. in the auto.-'position~and that; the -"Unit-Parallel" switch. is in the unit position>

and then

-start. the diesel which is still.oper ative.

5 3

In Step 5..4 below'the diesel will be connected to its bus in the screen house immediately after tripping the normal feed to bus~

The loss of normal feed to the bus

. will cause the tripping of service water pumps, intake heaters and MCC 1G if connected to the bus<<

Consideration should be given to this by placing the service water pumps and the motor control center on the opposite bus The intake heaters wi.ll have to be placed in service at the bus.'abinet.

Zf three service water pumps are in service, the loss of at least one should be anticipated, however; it can be started almost immediately after the trip of normal feed.

5.4 When voltage and frequency are normal, trip the noxmal feed to the appropriate screen house bus~.,

That is, if the A diesel is being run, trip the normal feed to Bus 18, and..if the B diesel is being run, trip the normal feed to Bus 17.

5.5 The diesel should automatically close to the bus 5'

As soon as practical, place a minimum of 500,.KW load on'the emergency bus..

This can be accomplished'by running two service water pumps and two intake heaters on the bus~.

5.7 Periodically monitor generator voltage and frequency.

Since the generator is running in unit operation, no attempt should be made to control power factor as it is being controlled by the load and not the generator.

In addition, 'an operator will be assigned the duty of monitoring the diesel operation.

His function is to moni-tor the diesel for proper operation, take hourly readings and to reset alarms and/or trips when required.

NOTE: If during this operation a safety injection signal occurred, the diesel that is running would automatically'he connected to its other safeguard bus For instance if the normal feed to bus 14 will trip and the diesel breaker will close to this bus The normal safeguard sequence will occur except that the bus will be fed from diesel rather than outside power.. If outside power is available, busses 16 and 17 wi.ll be fed from this source.

If the B diesel is feeding bus 17, bus 16 will lose its nor-mal feed and be connected to the diesel if a safety injection signal occuxs.

5.8 When the inoperative diesel i.s restored to standby service, the one that has been running can be stopped and also placed in standby ser-vice, by doing the following:

5.8.1 Reduce the loading on the diesel by tripping the intake heaters and and one or both service water pumps.

5.8s 2 Trip the diesel breaker and restore the normal feed to the bus and restore the service water pumps and intake heaters.

5.8.3 Check synchroscope and operate governor switch to return frequency

'to 60 cycles per second.

5.8.4 Adjust the automatic voltage contxol rheostat so that the generator output is 480 volts.

Return synchroscope to off position.

Stop the diesel generator set by turning generator switch to the stop position and immediately push the voltage shutdown button.

Wait a minute and push the field xeset and emergency generator start relay reset buttons, Verify the four indicating lamps are lighted.

PT-12. 1: 1 PT-12.1 EMERGENCY DIESEL GENERATOR 1A

1.0 PURPOSE

To'describe the steps necessary to perform monthly surveillance tests on Emergency Diesel Generator 1A..

2.0 TEST RE UIREMENTS:

2.1 To demonstrate that the IA emergency diesel generator is operable and capable of initially being electrically loaded to 1800 KW + 10 KW.

2.2 To ensure that the 1A emergency generation unit is properly aligned for emergency safeguard operations.

3.0 3.1

3.2 REFERENCES

ALCO Instruction Manual TP1-891 Plant Technical Specifications

4.0 INITIALCONDITIONS

4.1 The 1A diesel generator may be load tested while plant is in any status of operation.

NOTE:

When testing at power, the proper electrical plant inter-ties between the various voltage systems will permit feed-ing electrical energy back into the station 480 volts system to assume 480 volts plant load and through the Station Service

.Transformers to assume a portion,of the 4160 volt plant load.

When testing at no power conditions the same feed distribution will be available, however, if plant load is insufficient at this time, the excess energy will flow through the auxiliary transformer into the 34.5 KV system.

5.0 PRECAUTIONS

5.1 5.2 The 1A emergency diesel generator must be'ied into both of its respective safeguard busses before loading to 1800 KN + 10 EN.

I Upon connecting the 1A diesel-generator into the 480 volt bus approx-imately 300 KW load should be immediately loaded on the generator and the power factor should be increased quickly to prevent a reverse

,power trip.

PT-12.1:2 r'5.3 All abnormal pressure and temperature changes should be investi-gated and steps taken to bring readings to normal.

~

5.4 5.5 The power factor of generator should be maintained between

.85 and

.95 lagging.

Only one diesel should be load tested at a time.

5.6 An auxiliary operator should be stationed in the lA diesel room during the time the diesel generator set is being load tested.

Normally the operators function would be to monitor for proper operation of the diesel-generator,

however, there always exists the remote possibility of a station blackout and safety injection actuation signal.

In this event the operator must be prepared to reset any trip condition which 'would prevent the diesel-gener-ator from supplying safeguard load.

5.7 Do not exceed the diesel generator long term rating of 1950 IGl.

6.0 INSTRUCTIONS

6.1 lA diesel egnerator pre-start alignment, T-27.1, has been completed within 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> prior to operation'f diesel-generator set for full load surveillance check.
