U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission ND-19-0271 Enclosure Page 2of 4 ITAAC Statement Desion Commitment 2.a) Controls exist in the MCR to trip the main turbine-generator.

2.c) The main turbine-generator trips after receiving a signal from the DAS.

3) The trip signals from the two turbine eiectricai overspeed protection trip systems are isolated from, and independent of, each other.

I nsoections/Tests/Analvses Testing will be performed on the main turbine-generator using controls in the MCR.

Testing will be performed using real or simulated signals into the DAS.

ii) Testing of the as-built system will be performed using simulated signals from the turbine speed sensors.

Acceptance Criteria Controls in the MCR operate to trip the main turbine-generator.

The main turbine-generator trips after receiving a signal from the DAS.

ii) The main turbine-generator trips after overspeed signals are received from the speed sensors of the 110% emergency electrical overspeed trip system, and the main turbine-generator trips after overspeed signals are received from the speed sensors of the 111% backup electrical overspeed trip system.

ITAAC Completion Description This ITAAC requires testing to be performed to verify that controls exist in the Main Control Room (MCR)and operate to trip the main turbine-generator and that the main turbine-generator trips after receiving a real or simulated signal from the Diverse Actuation System (DAS). This ITAAC also verifies the turbine electrical overspeed protection trips system are isolated and independent of each other and that the main turbine-generator trips after receiving simulated trip signals from the emergency electrical overspeed trip system and the backup electrical overspeed trip system.

Controls in the MCR operate to trio the main turbine-generator.

Testing is performed in accordance with Unit 3 and Unit 4 preoperational test procedures 3-TOS-ITPP-501 and 4-TOS-ITPP-501 (References 1 and 2)to verify that controls in the MCR operate to trip the main turbine-generator.

Testing is initiated by resetting the main turbine, verifying the turbine is not tripped, and verifying the main turbine stop and control valves are open. The turbine trip hand switch at the Primary

U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission ND-19-0271 Enclosure Page 3of 4 Dedicated Safety Panel(PDSP) is placed in trip, tfie turbine mode turbine trip display is verified, and the turbine stop and controi valves are verified to be closed.

This testing confirms that for Unit 3 and Unit 4, controls in the MGR operate to trip the main turbine-generator.

The main turbine-generator trios after receiving a sional from the DAS.

Testing is performed in accordance with Unit 3 and Unit 4 preoperational test procedures 3-TOS-ITPP-501 and 4-TOS-iTPP-501 (References 1 and 2)and 3-DAS-ITPP-501 and 4-DAS-ITPP-501 (References 3 and 4)to verify the main turbine-generator trips after receiving a signal from the DAS.

Testing in references 1 and 2 perform a trip solenoid valve functional test by verifying that when master trip pilot solenoids(TOS-V174A1/A2, TOS-V174B1/B2)are de-energized, the spool moves to the tripped position and the main turbine and extraction non-return valves are verified to close locally thereby tripping the main turbine. Testing in references 3 and 4 verifies the master trip pilot solenoids de-energize due to a DAS manual Reactor and Turbine Trip switch operation resulting in a signal from DAS to the main turbine-generator trip.

Results of the preoperational testing for Unit 3 and Unit 4 confirm that the main turbine-generator trips after receiving a signai from the DAS.

iif The main turbine-oenerator trios after oversoeed sionals are received from the soeed sensors of the 110% emeraencv electrical oversoeed trio svstem. and the main turbine-generator trios after oversoeed sionals are received from the speed sensors of the 111% backup electricai oversoeed trio svstem.

Testing is performed in accordance with Unit 3 and Unit 4 preoperational test procedures 3-TOS-ITPP-501 and 4-TOS-ITPP-501 (References 1 and 2)to verify the main turbine-generator trips after overspeed signals are received from the speed sensors of the 110%

emergency eiectrical overspeed trip system, and the main turbine-generator trips after overspeed signals are received from the speed sensors of the 111% backup electrical overspeed trip system.

Testing in references 1 and 2 perform a trip solenoid vaive functional test by verifying when master trip pilot solenoids(TOS-V174A1/A2, TOS-V174B1/B2)are de-energized, the spool moves to the tripped position and the main turbine and extraction non-return valves are verified to close locally thereby tripping the main turbine. The test then simulates a overspeed condition at the speed sensors for the 110% emergency electrical overspeed trip and verifies the trip solenoids are tripped. The test then simulates an overspeed condition at the speed sensors for the 111% backup electrical overspeed trip and verifies the trip solenoids are tripped.

Results of the preoperational testing for Unit 3 and Unit 4 confirm that the main turbine-generator trips after overspeed signals are received from the speed sensors for the 110%

emergency electrical overspeed trip system, and the main turbine-generator trips after overspeed signals are received from the speed sensors for the 111% backup electrical overspeed trip system.

U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission ND-19-0271 Enclosure Page 4 of 4 The completed test results (References 1 through 4), confirm that that DAS controls exist in the MGR and operate to trip the main turbine-generator, that the main turbine-generator trips after receiving a real or simulated signal from the DAS,and that the main turbine-generator trips after receiving trip signals from the emergency electrical overspeed trip system and the backup electrical overspeed trip system.
