Every three montns, the specific Eravity of each ceil, the temperature reading of every fifth cell, the height of clectrolyte _and tic amount of water added shall be measured and racorded.
4.7 3 Ezergency Lighting The correct functioning of tt; emergency lighting system outsice of containment shall be verified 3t least once a year.
The emergency lighting system inside containmant shall be verified operable prior to each removal of the reactor head.
, Basis The emergency power system provided power requirements for tne engineered safety features in the event of a DBA.
EEch of the tvC diesel generators is capable of supplying minimum required saf, guards equipment from independent buses. I' This redundancy in a factor in establishing testing intervals.
The monthly tests specified above vill demonstrate operability and load capacity of the diesel generatcr. The fuel supply and vcrious controls are continuously monitored and alanned for ubnormal conditions. Starting on complete loss of off-site power will be verified by simulated loss-of-power tests at approximately yearly intervals (during refueling shutdovrs).
Considering system redundancy, the specified testing intervals for the station batterica should be adequate to detect and correct any malfunction before it can result in system malfunction. Battaries will deteriorate with time, but pregipitous failure is extremely unlikely. The surveillance specified is that which has been demonstrated over the years to provide an indication of a, call becoming unserviceable long before it fails.
