d. Verify the fuel transfer pump can be started and transfers fuel from I

the storage system to the day tank.

e. Verify the diesel generator can start and gradually accelerate. Verify the generator voltage and frequency can be adjusted to 4160 1 420 volts and 601 1.2 liz. Subsequently, manually synchronize the generator, gradually load to at least 1650 kW (Unit 2: 5100 kW to 5300 KW), and operate for at least 60 minutes This test should be conducted in i consideration of the manufacturer's recommendations regarding engine l l prelube, warm-up, loading and shutdown procedures where possible. l 1

4.6.A.2. At least once each 6_ months, for each diesel generator:

a. Verify the diesel generator starts and achieves generator voltage and ,

frequency of 4160 i 420 volts and 60 1.2 Hz within 10 seconds after  !

the start signal.

b. Manually synchronize the generator, load to at least 1650 kW (Unit l 2: 5100 kW to 5300 kW) in less than or equal to 60 seconds and  ;

operate for at least one hour.  !

c. This test should be conducted from standby conditions in consideration of the manufacturer's recommendations regarding engine prelube and shutdown procedures where possible.
3. At least once each 18 months:
a. Subject each diesel generator to a thorough inspection in accordance with procedures prepared in consideration of the l manufacturer's recommendations for this class of standby service,
b. For each unit, simulate a loss of offsite power in conjunction with a safety injection signal, and: l
1. Verify de-energization of the emergency buses and load shedding from the emergency buses.
2. Verify the diesels start on the auto-start signal and energizo the emergency buses in one minute. This test should be conducted in consideration of the manufacturer's recommendations  !

regarding engine prelube and shutdown procedures where possible.

3. During this test, operation of the emergency lighting system shall be ascertained,
c. For each diesel generator, demonstrate full-load carrying capability for an interval of not less than 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br />, of which at least 2 hours2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br /> are at an indicated load equal to 103 to 110 percent of the continuous rating of the emergency diesel generator, and the remainder of the 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> are at an indicated load of greater than or equal to 92 percent of its continuous rating. Verify the generator voltage and frequency to be 4160 1 420 volts and 60 1 1.2 Hz. Momentary transienes outside the load ranges do not invalidate this test.  ;
d. Verify the capability of each generator to reject a load of at least 650 kW (Unit 2: 860 kW) without tripping.
e. For each unit, simulate a safety injection signal and verify that the l diesel generator system trips, except those for engine overspeed, ground fault, and generator differential current (Unit 2: except those for engine overspeed and generator differential current), are automatically bypassed.
