TOPICAL REPORT EVALUATION Report Number:
BAW-10003 Revision 4 (Non-Proprietary)
Report
Title:
Qualification Testing of Protection System Instrumentation Report Date: April 1975 Originating Organization:
Babcock and Wilcox, Company Revi,cwed By:
Section A - Electrical, Instrumentation a.nd Control Systems Branch, Division of Technical Reviev Summary of Topical Report The topical report presents the results of the scismic and environ =cntal r
qualification testing of the protection system instrumentation used in Babcock and Wilcox nuc1 car secam systems including:
detectors, signal.
conddtioning instrumentation, power supplies, test signal generators, and relay logic.
Summary of Regulatory Evaluation As a result of our revicu,'we have concluded that this ' topical report provides satisfactory answers to the questions which were transmitted as a result of our revicu of Revisions 2 and 3 and is therefore an acceptabic basis for the qualification of some equipment in older plants.
1 Summary.of Regulatory Position 1.
The subject report in its present form provides an acceptabic basis for testing instruments and control devices to demonstrate the capability of~this equipment to function with precision and reliability over the full range of transient and steady-state conditions of both the energy supply and the environ cnt during normal, abnormal, and accident circumstances throughout which the instrumentation must perform.
- - ~
2.- Th~c testing which is presented in the subject report does not satisfy all of the requirements of IEEE Std 323-1974, which was published February 28, 1974 and can not be used as a basis for licensing plants do'cketed for a construction permit af ter that date.
3.
BAW-10003 Revision 4 cay be used as a basis for licensing p'lants in which construction permit second round questions werd issued prior to April 30, 1974.
4.
The subject-report -is not applicable to solid state logic systems such
. as R1'S-Il.

6.
The individual applications must demonstrate that the equipment will _
comply to the following interface criteria in its as installed condition:
The still air temperature of the equipment must be maintained.within a a.
ranga of 40 to 110 F at relative humidities of 50%.
b.
The interconnecting wiring and connectors nust be qualified to meet the environmental and scismic plant design criteria.
The electrical pouer sources for the instrumentation shall maintain c.
input to the cabincts of 107 to 127 Y ac at 58 to 62 !!z.
