ELECTRICAL POWER SYSTE,MS SURVEILLANCG RjQUIREMENTS 4.8.1.1.1 Ecch of the above required independent circuits between the offsite transmission network and the onsite Class iE distribution system shall be:

a.

Determined OPERABLE at least once per 7 days by verifying correct breaker alignments and indicated power availability, and b.

Demonstrated OPERABLE at least once per 18 months during shutdown by transferring, manually and automatically, unit power supply from the normal circuit to the alternate circuit.

4.8.1.1.2 Each of the above required diesel generators shall be demonstrated OPERABLE:

a.

In accordance with the frequency specified in Table 4.8.1.1.2-1 on a STAGGERED TEST BASIS by:

1.

Verifying the fuel level in the fuel oil day tank.

2.

Verifying the fuel level in the fuel oil storage tank.

3.

Verifying the fuel transfer pump starts and transfers fuel from the storage system to the fuel oil day tank.

4.

Verifying the diesel starts from ambient conditions and accel-erates to at least 514 rpm in less than or equal to 10 seconds after receipt of the start signal.* The generator voltage and frequency shall be 4160 1 420 volts and 60 1 1.2 Hz within 10 seconds after receipt of the start signal.

The diesel generator shall be started for this test by using one of the following signals:

a)

Manual.

b)

Simulated loss of offsite power by itself.

c)

Simulated loss of offsite power in conjunction with in ESF actuation test signal, d)

An ESF actuation test signal by itself.

5.

Verifying the diesel generator is synchronized, loaded to between 4300 and 4400** kw in less than or equal to 130 seconds,*

and operates with this load for at least 60 minutes.

"The diesel generator start (10 sec) and subsequent loading (130 sec) from ambient conditions shall be performed at least once per 184 days in these surveillance tests.

All other engine starts and loading for the purpose of this surveillance testing may be preceded by an engine prelube period and/or other warmup procedures recommended by the manufacturer so that mechanical stress and wear on the diesel engine is minimized.

- This band is meant as guidance to avoid routine overloading of the engine.

Loads in excess of this band shall not invalidate tne test; the loads, however, shall not be less than 4300 kw nor greger than 4430 kw.

At least once per 18 months #,## during shutdown, by:

1.

Subjecting the diesel to an inspection in accordance with procedurespreparedinconjunctionwithitsmanufacturer's recommendations for this class of standby service.

2.

Verifying the diesel generator caprbility to reject a load of greater thar, or equal to that of the RHR pump motor (1003 kW) for each diesel generator while maintaining voltage at 4160 1 420 volts and frequency at 60 1 1.2 Hz.

3.

Verifying the diesel generator capability to reject a load af 4430 kW without trippipg.

The generator voltage shall not exceed 4580 volts during and following the load rejection.

a)

Verifying loss of power is detected and deenergization of the emergency busses and load shedding from the emergency busses.

b)

Verifying the diesel generator starts

" Criteria. for determining number of f ailures and number of valid tests shall be in accordance with Regulatory Positior C.2.e of Regulatory Guide 1.108, but determined on a per diesel generator basis.

For the purposes of determining the required test frequency, the previous test failure count may be reduced to zero if a complete diesel overhaul to like-new condition is completed, provided_that the overhaul including appropriate post-maintenance operation and testing, is specifically approved by the manufacturer and if acceptable reliability has been demonstrated.

The reliability criterion shall be the successful completion of-14 consecutive tests _in a single series.

Ten of these tests shall be in accordance with the routine Surveillance Require-ment-4.8.1.1.2.a.4 and 4.8.1.1.2.a.5, four tests, in accordance with the 184-day testing requiremtnt of Surveillance' Requirement 4.8.1.1.2.a.4 and 4.8.1.1.2.a.5.

If this criterion is not satisfied during the first series of tests, any alter-nate criterion to be used to transvalue the failure count to zero requires NRC approval.

- The associated test frequency shall be maintained until seven consecutive failure free demands have been performed and the number of failures in the last 20 valid demands has-been reduced to one.
