DESIGN INPUTS l ANSI N45.2.ll(1974) requires the documentation of design. inputs used in the design of a station modification. Therefore, the following topics have been adapted from ANSI N45.2.ll(1974) to serve as a guide for describing the design inputs applicable to the electrical and instrumentation portions of a station modification. The related paragraph (a) of ANSI N45.2.ll are identified by the number (s) in parentheses that follow the design input topic. In addressing these design input topics, the following guidelines should be used

i )( If the NSM modifies an existing system / equipment and does not change the design basis or require new design bases or criteria, then the design inputs should be described from the perspective of the modification. '

If the NSM adds a new system or a significant new function to an existing system, then the design input should be described from the perspective of the system being added or modified.

1. State the QA condition of the design being implemented by this portion of the modification and its basis.

QA-1 because of control interfaces with the on-site emergency power sources (Keowee Hydro Units) and the emergency underground power path (Breakers ACB-3 and ACB-4)

2. Identify the codes, standards and/or regulatory requirements that initiated this modification or that are unique in implementing the design of this modification. (3)

The postulated ccenario, which this portion of the NSM addresses, was identified during the sing' e failure analysis of the Keowee Emergency Power System and involves a single failure concern as outlined in the resulting PIP-4-092-0538 and LER 269-92-16.

3. Describe the basis function of the system and/or equipment affected by this modification including the various plant operating modes or events for which it is required to function (e.g.,. normal operation, LOCA,' MSLB, LOOP, fire, security). ( 1, 13, 15, 16)

Refer to Attachment 1 for the basic function and equipment affected by the ALI portion of this modification. The circuitry and logic added by the ALI portion of this mod. is required to be operational during normal operation, LOCA, MSLB and LOOP and during a SSF/ West Penetration Room Event.

4. Describe the performance requirements for the system and/or equipment affected by this portion system output).

of the modification (e.g., capacity, ratings, (2, 13, 16) and The contact and timer outputs of the devices utilized to generate the logic described in Attachment 1 are fully capable of the pilot duty requirements of the closing circuitry of breakers ACB-3 and 4. Also, the timing range and tolerances of timers 62-3C and 62-4C are acceptable to perform the function as described. These conclusions are based on published manufacturer's information i t

5. Mdbspr ye]p,ggey,gggions under which the equipment affected by this modification is required to function (e.g. , seismic, vibra' tion, environmental, and process). (4, 5, 6, 8, 9, 27)

All components, either installed by this portion of the. modification (or directly affected by it) are located in mild environment areas and are required to correctly function during seismic events.

(7)

None

7. Describa any special location, layout, or arrangement requirements related to this portion of the modification. (14)

None

8. Describe the redundancy, diversity, and/or separation requirements for the systems or equipment affected by the modification.
1. Redundancy - Separate, independent logic arrangemen(18)for ts breakers ACB-3 and ACB-4 closing circuits.
2. Diversity - None
3. Separation - Where encountered, sapt ration between safety channels and individual components providtd rcr established criteria.
9. Describe any design feature (s) incorjs*zated in this portion of the modification to specifically accoun*. for the failure mode of the system / equipment af fected by this moditf cation. (19)

As described in Attachment 1, this portion of the modification provides logic to mitigate the consequences of a failure (fault) within breaker ACB-1 or ACB-2.

Therefore, an additional failure, postulated within the logic provided by this portion of the mod., is outside of design basis. See Item 1 under Section 8 above j and Section 11 below. '

lo. Describe any design feature (s) incorporated in the modification as a result of special system and/or equipment testing requirements. (20) i l

None '

11. Describe any other important factors considered or decisions made in the design of this portion of the modification.

Separate and redundant logic arrangements have been provided in the closing circuits of ACB-3 and 4 to assure that under the postulated single failure conditions (addressed in PIP-4-092-0538), the unaffected underground path breaker will automatically close. Although one common device is used in both of these logic arrangements (namely LOR 86T contacts) the overall result addresses the postulated breaker fault scenario and complies with established ONS single failure criteria.

The two second time delay, as explained in Attachment 1, is based on generally

accepted industry practices, relating to automatic bus transfers, where a one second time delay is considered sufficient time for residual voltage to decay (on a de-energized bus) to such levels that the bus may be safely re-energized without synchronization problems.

PA(_iE i cfi NSM-ON-52966 (AL1 PORTION) PROJECT DESCRIPTION This modification provides logic in the controls of various Keowee devices, which, when implemented, will preclude postulated scenarios from adversely affecting the Keowee generators ability to function as the emergency on-site sources to the three Oconee units.

This portion of the NSM therefore addresses the following item:

1. Single failure concerns relative to differential protective relays zone overlap when a failure within one of the overhead generator breakers (ACB-1 or ACB-2)is postulated.

A failure within one of the breakers noted, when the affected Keowee unit is also the one selected as the " underground path" unit will result in both emergency power paths " locked out" and unavailable. An interim solution to this problem is that of maintaining the overhead breaker, on the selected underground path unit, isolated (breaker tripped with its respective disconnects open) thus, making one of the Keowee units unavailable for system purposes.

The logic provided by this modification which addresses this concern will result in the underground breaker (not previously selected) to automatically close when indication of the postulated breaker fault occurs.

This is accomplished by providing automatic closing logic in each underground path breaker (ACB-3 and ACB-4) such that they will close when the following conditions are satisfied.

A Main step-up transformer Lock-Out Relay 86T tripped ; and B. The opposite Keowee units Emergency Lock-Out Relay 86E tripped: and C. Either channel of emergency start to the respective Keowee  ;

unit actuated. l l

Once satisfied, the close signal to the open underground path breaker is delayed for two seconds to preclude the highly unlikely possibility of the open breaker rapidly closing with no synchronization supervision present.

Please note that the time delay has been provided as a precautionary measure and is not required nor is its function considered to be within design basis.

l
