U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission ND-19-1153 Enclosure Page 2 of 4 ITAAC Statement Design Commitment 1.a) The EPS has handsets, amplifiers, loudspeakers, and siren tone generators connected as a telephone/page system.

1.b) The EPS has sound-powered equipment connected as a system.

2.a) The EPS telephone/page system provides intrapiant, station-to-station communications and area broadcasting between the MCR and the locations listed in Table 2.3.19-1.

2.b) EPS provides sound-powered communications between the MCR,the RSW,the Division A, B, C, D do equipment rooms(Rooms 12201/12203/12205/12207), the Division A, B, C, D l&C rooms(Rooms 12301/12302/12304/12305), and the diesel generator building (Rooms 60310/60320) without external power.

Inspections/Tests/Analvses Inspection of the as-built system will be performed.

Inspection of the as-built system will be performed.

An inspection and test will be performed on the telephone/page communication equipment.

An inspection and test will be performed of the sound-powered communication equipment.

Acceptance Criteria The as-built EPS has handsets, amplifiers, loudspeakers, and siren tone generators connected as a telephone/page system.

The as-built EPS has sound-powered equipment connected as a system.

Telephone/page equipment is installed and voice transmission and reception from the MCR are accomplished.

ITAAC Completion Description This ITAAC is performed to verify, by inspection and testing, that the Communication System (EPS) is installed with handsets, amplifiers, loudspeakers, siren tone generators, and sound-powered equipment that is operating properly.

ITAAC 2.3.19.02a is completed as a combination of:

• Pield inspections of the Plant Paging System (PPS)

U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission ND-19-1153 Enclosure Page 3 of 4

• Field inspections of the Sound Powered Phones(SPP)

• Testing of the PPS with voice transmission and reception from the Main Control Room (MCR)and other required locations throughout the plant

• Testing of the SPP with transmission and reception between the MCR, Remote Shutdown Workstation(RSW)and other required locations throughout the plant The inspections place operators in the field at predetermined locations where PPS and SPP components are installed and verify that the necessary equipment is available. The MCR personnel initiate a communication test and each operator in the field verifies the transmission from the MCR is received. The response back from the operator in the field to the MCR verifies the reception by the MCR is received. The PPS equipment that must be verified is listed in Combined Operating License(COL)Appendix C Table 2.3.19-1 (see Attachment A). The SSP equipment that must be verified is listed in COL Appendix C ITAAC No. 2.3.19.02a Item 2.b)

(see Attachment B).

Additional tests verify the operators in the field can hear a plant page, fire alarm, and warble alarm from the PPS with a response to the MCR and other locations verifying the PPS is operating properly for these functions.

All the inspections and testing are performed using 3/4-EFS-ITPP-501 (References 1 and 2).

The completed Unit 3 and Unit 4 inspection and testing (References 1 and 2)confirm the as-built EFS has handsets, amplifiers, loudspeakers, and siren tone generators connected as a telephone/page system, the as-built EFS has sound-powered equipment connected as a system, telephone/page equipment is installed and voice transmission and reception from the MCR are accomplished, and sound-powered equipment is installed and voice transmission and reception are accomplished.

References 1 through 2 are available for NRC inspection as part of the ITAAC 2.3.19.02a Unit 3 and 4 Completion Packages (References 3 and 4).

List of ITAAC Findings In accordance with plant procedures for ITAAC completion. Southern Nuclear Operating Company(SNC) performed a review of all findings pertaining to the subject ITAAC and associated corrective actions. This review found there are no relevant ITAAC findings associated with this ITAAC.
