3. Containment Fan Coolers Each fan cooler unit shall be tested during each reactor refueling shutdown to verify proper operation of all essential features including low motor speed, cooling water valves, and normal ventilation system dampers. Individual unit performance will be monitored by observing the terminal temperatures of the fan coil unit and by verifying a cooling water flow rate of greater than or equal to 900 gpm to each fan coil unit.
4. Component Cooline Water System
a. System tests shall be performed during each reactor refueling shutdown. Operation of the system will be initiated by tripping the actuation instrumentation.
b. The_ test will be considered satisfactory if control board indica-tion and visual observations indicate that all components have operated satisfactorily.
5. Cooling Vater system

Tests shall consist of an automatic start of each diesel engine and automatic operation of valves required to mitigate accidents including those valves that isolate non essential equipment from the system. Operation of the system will be initiated by a simulated accident signal to the actuation instrumentation. The tests will be considered satisfactory if control board indication and visual observations indicate that all components have ope ited satisfactorily and if cooling water flow paths required for accident mitigation have been established.

The full flow test is done once a cycle associated with tho refuelirg shutdown to minimize the thermal shock to the auxiliary fendwater piping. 'The discharge valves of the pumps are normally open, as cre the succion valves from the condensate storage tanks. Proper opening 4

of the steam admission valve on each turbine drf"en pump will be demonstrated each time a turbine driven pump is tested. Ventilation c system isolation dampets required to function for the postulated rupturo of a high energy line will also be tested.
