3.0 Puruose

This procedure provides instruction for: //~7 1; Manually starting the Emergency diesel generator fran control room.

2. Paralleling the emergency diesels with energized 4160 V bus.
3. Loading the unit to test load of 2750 KP.

This test is performed to meet the requirements of Technical Specification 4.8.1. This test is scheduled in Operating Procedure 0204 2, Schedule of Periodic Tests, Checks, Calibrations and Operating Evolutions.

4.0'recautions and. Limitations:

4.1 Por test .purposes the generator load shall not exceed 2750 1ST and generator current shall not e'xceed 435 amps.

4.2 Except during the normal cooldown cycle of 11 to 14 minutes, do not allow engine to run unloaded at 900 RPM for periods in 'excess'f 10-15 minutes unless absolutely necessary. This type of operation causes oil to collect in turbocharge turbine, which could, result iu a turbocharger Pire'.

~ ~

4.3 Upon completion of the test the diesel generator and all associated equipment must be inspected to verify that it is ready to run, the local normal selector switch is in the NORMAL mode, the key-interlock bypass switch is in the BY-PASS mode, and the diesel generator 4160 volt breakers are recharged.

4.4 During parallel operation only one emergency diesel breaker shall be closed at a time. Closure of both breakers would result in tying the auxiliary busses of 3 & 4 units together through the emergency diesel breakers. Excessive circulating currents could result.

1/27/78 OPERAT ROCEDURE 4304.1, PAGE URGENCY DIESEL GENERATOR 4.5 The electric motor driven prelube pump (soak back pump) must be in operation.at all times engine is not running. This is necessary to provide turbo charger prestart lubrication and post shutdown bearing cooling.

4.6 Caution must be used when paraU.cling emergency diesel with system as there are no sync. check relays'.

4.7 Normal fuel oil pressure at 2750 KV is approximately 30 psi.

Change fuel oil filter when fuel oil pressure exceeds;40 psi.

5.0 .Related S stem Status:

The plant should be in a stable condition with no anticipated. major operator action required during the test period.

8.1.1 Record time to reach approximately 60 Hz & 4160 volts.

8.12 Set governor speed droop to'approximately 30 on droop scale. This setting is always left on "0" when engine is in standby mode. Check the clean rag placed under the starter motor exhaust for evidence of oil.

8. 13 Fram the console, adjust frequency, phase, and voltage to match auxiliary bus.

8.14 'Close the emgergency diesel breaker from the console. On the first, third, and fifth weeks the diesel should be tied to the 83 unit bus.

On the second and fourth weeks the diesel should be tied to the 8'4 unit bus. Never close both breakers at the same time when the busses are energized.

8. 15 Pick up load to approx. 1000 KW and hold for approximately 5 minutes.

Take readings for Data Sheet two minutes after reaching 10CA KQ load.

8. 16 Operator in diesel room will inspect equipment for abnormal conditi.ons.
8. 17 Raise load to 2500 KQ and hold for appr,oximately 45 minutes.,
8. 18 Take readings, as specified on data sheet thirty minutes after reaching 2500 KR load.

8.19 Slowly open air box drain valve approx. 10% and purge oil from the air box. Reclose to a point where a slight flow of air, into the draia bucket, can be detected. Do not close air box drain valve completely.

8.20 After approximately 45 minutes of operation at 2500 KZ, increase load to 2750 KN.

8..21 Operate unit for approximately 10 minutes 2750 KV. Take readings

" as specified on the data sheet two minutes after reaching 2750 EK load

8. 22 After approximately 10 minutes operation at 2750 KH, reduce load to approximately 200 KP, and open emergency di.esel generator breaker. Do aot exceed 15 minutes operation at 2750 KW.
8. 23 Reset governor speed droop to "0" on the droop scale.
8. 24 Adjust console speed/load changer so that emergency diesel is at 60'Hz..

25 Adjust emergency diesel generator voltage to 4160 volts, from console.

NOTE: Speed and voltage adjustment settiags determined in 8.24 and 8.25 are the settings required for emergeacy deadline operation.

8- 26 Press stop button, on the console.

8.27 Verify the Diesel Generator completes the shutdown cycle and comes to a complete stop.

8.28 Return key interlock bypass switch to BYPASS.

8.29 Verify all alarms are clear and the Ready-To-Start light is ON.

8.30 ,Veri.fy Local Normal selector is in NORMAL position.

8.31 During the first test of each quarter (on each diesel) obtain a copy of Appendix 0 of Operating Procedure 0209.1, Valve Exercising Pro-cedure, and obtain required data during performance of next two steps.

8.32 Press the "Push to Fill" switch and observe the Skid Tank Level.

Release the "Push to FiU." switch when the Skid Tank level exceeds 200 gallons. Record the tank level.

Diesel A Skid Tank level Diesel B Skid Tank level NOTE: The High Level Switch will prevent over filling the Skid Tank.

8. 33 Test run Diesel Fuel Oil Transfer Pump.
8. 34 Verify that the emergency diesel generator breakers are recharged.
