Dear Mr. Cavanaugh:

We are continuing to review Arkansas Nuclear One Unit No.1 (ANO-1) for the adequacy of Station Electric Distribution Voltage. In order for us to complete our review, we need additional infonnation identified in the enclosure. We request a response to this within 30 days.

Sincerely, L

SUBJECT:

ADEQUACY OF STATION ELECTPIC DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM VOLTAGES

REFERENCES:

(1) NRC letter (W. Gammill) to all power reactor licensees, dated August 8, 1979.

(2) AP&L letter (D. C. Trimble) to NRC (R. W. Reid),

dated May 21, 1979.-

l.

Submit the lowest low voltage (less than 480 volts) Class 1E equipment terminal voltages (P.ef.1, Guideline 7) for the following cases:

(a)

Ref. 2, Table 4, provides the transient and steady state voltages for a full house transfer of Unit 1 station loads to SUT #1 followed by an ES signal with all three 500KV lines out of service.

i (b)

Ref. 3, Attachment 1, provides the Class lE load voltages for maximum grid and minimum plant loading conditions.

(c)

Starting of the largest non-Class lE load following a full house transfer with an ES signal for the worst case analyzed.

Discussion: The above low voltage values are required to verify that the low voltage Class lE equipment will be operating within the design voltage ratings (without blowing fuses, e,.erheating, etc.) and that the voltage dip caused by the large non-C1sta lE load starting will not cause Class lE

.ontactors to drop out.

2.

Ref. 1, page 2, also requested that the voltage analyses be verified by test.

Submit a description of the test method and the test results.

Discussion: The basis for the verification is to confirm the validity of the analytical voltages submitted. The test method should include a comparison of actual measured voltages to analytical voltages to produce a deviatisa error percentage. The test should be conducted with the Class lE buses at least 30%-40% loaded.
