Enclosure REQUEST FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION RANCHO SECO DEGRADED GRID VOLTAGE 1

In our Safety Evaluation forwarded on June 3,1977, staff position 1(e) states tF at "The voltage monitors shall be designed to satisfy the requirements of IEEE Std. 279-1971." Your letter dated January 9,1978, stated that seismic and quality assurance requirements will be met.

Describe how your proposed undervoltage protection scheme complies with other design criteria of the standard.

2.

In your submittal of September 17, 1976, item lg had stated that the continuous operation range of 4160V rated motors is 3744 to 4576 Volts and that of the 460V motors is 414 to 566 volts.. Submit your analysis to show hcw the one level undervoltage protection (Table 3.5.3 of your letter dated June 20, 1978 gives a setpoint of 3536V + 36V with a time delay of 2.75 seconds + 0.25 seccnds) assures teat

he safety.related equipment is not subjected voltages that could cause' damage to the equipment.

The analysis should also address how the proposed time delay will preclude spurious trips for short duratien degradation and motor starting voltage conditions.
