BASES ITM Alternate Shutdown Panals t

l The alternate shutdown system, independent of cabling and equipment in the j

Cable Spreading Room is provided to effect safe shutdown of Pflgrim in the event of a fire in the Cable Spreading Room. This is accomplished by in-i stalling isolation switches for safety-related equipment that will provide the capability for the plant operators to reach a safe shutdown condition.

1 These switches will isolate their associated equipment from the CSR cables.

l thus transfer control from the Control Room to the local emergency shut-j down stations outside the CSR. These isolation switches are located in alternate shutdown panels and are located as close as practical to the I

j j

equipment or switchgear they serve.

The operability of the fire suppression and detection system in the Cable Spreading Room in conjunction with the passive element of cable coating ensures that adequate fire protection / detection / suppression capability is 4

i available to quickly detect, confine and extinguish fires occurring in any portion of the room where safety-related equipment is located. The fire detection / suppression system consists of an independent smoke detection system, an automatic Halon 1301 Fire Suppression system and fire hose stations available outside the doorways to the Cable Spreading Room. The i

collective capability of passive protection and detection with either manual or automatic suppression is adequate to minimize potential damage to safety-related equipment and is a major element in the facility fire protection program.

An emergency shutdown procedure, which is etapatible with the design modifi-cations and plant operator availability, provides step-by-step actions to i

initiate safe shutdown operation.

Operator actions to isolate safety-related j

cables passing through the CSR is initiated as soon as a fire which is not immediately extinguishable is detected and confimed in the CSR.

Salt Service Water 4

e.

f.

RCIC g.

Automa. tic Depressurization System h.

Diesel Generators Inoperability of the above listed systems does not require entry into LCO action statements for the alternate shutdown panels.

A surveillance frequency of once per cycle is considered prudent and more frequent testing not warranted. The frequency of once per refueling outage for ' testing the diesel generators prevents unnecessarily rendering them inoperable during nomal power operation. The frequency of once per refuel-ing outage for the Automatic Depressurization System is consistant with the existing surveillance frequency for this system.

Requiring this surveillance to be perfomed during a refueling outage will also assure that plant condi-tions will allow for safe access to the ADS solenoids.
