If one of the four vital power channels is in an inoperable status for more than 2 hours2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br /> (due to maintenance or testing) both units of the plant may be shutdown. The fifth vital battery system is intended to serve as a temporary replacement for any one of the four primary 125-V de vital batteries should a channel be inoperable. The system shall be design-ed to provide a temporary source of direct-current power for operation and control of essential systems and components under all modes of operation.
The fifth vital battery system shall be designed and constructed to comply with IEEE 308, reference 4.1.2.
2.0 SCOPE This document describes the design and equipment application for the fifth vital battery system at Sequoyah Nuclear Plant.
2.1 General Description The fif th vital battery system shall consist of a 125-V de battery along with the appropriate battery rack, charger, battery board, distribution panels, cabling, instrumentation, and protective devices necessary to ensure continued operation of the two unit plant should vital battery I, II, III, or IV become disabled for longer than the techneial specifica-tion period. This system shall provide (1) a highly reliable source of low noise direct-current power, (2) proper power distribution to any assigned primary vital battery board loads, and (3) sufficient capacity to supply the worse case loading conditions of any single primary 'rital battery system.
The primary vital battery system (consisting of vital batteries I, II, III, and IV and associated system components) is configured such that batteries I, II, III, and IV provide normal service to the vital 125-V de system. The fif th vital battery distribution system shall be design-ed so that in the event a single primary vital battery is removed from service for any reason (testing, maintenance, etc.), the fifth vital battery may be substituted for it with no impact on the reliability of the 125-V de vital power system.
2.2 System Configuration and Operation The 125V de fifth vital battery system shall be configured per drawing JDH0483, R2.
The system conceptual design and operational philosophy are as follows:
Battery charger V, which shall be seismic Category 1(L), shall function solely to recharge the fifth vital battery to and maintain it at the proper operating and equailze voltage levels: The charger shall experience no other loading at any.ime.
This non-Class IE system component shall be !

e Description of the Proposed Electrical Power System for the 125-Volt Fif th Vital Battery System 2.2- (Continued) isolated from the remainder of the fifth vital battery system by two quali-ficd isolators, the battery charger fuse and circuit breaker. During normal operation, the charger shall supply the fifth vital battery through battery board V, via the normally closed charger and battery breakers.
The fif th vital battery board shall contain a manually operated break-before-make (BBM) transfer switch (mechanically interlocked to preserve train separa-tion) to permit system alignment to either distribution panel A or B.
Each distribution panel shall contain a manually operated BBM transfer switch (mechanically interlocked to preserve channel separation) to permit system aligr. ment to the selected primary vital battery board.
The procedure for the substitution of the fif th vital battery for a primary vital battery is as follows: First, the fif th charger must be disconnected from the fifth vital battery board via the charger breaker; second, the se-lected primary vital battery board must be aligned to its spare battery charger (1-S or 2-S) via the spare charger transfer switch (1-S or 2-S); third, the primary vital battery / primary vital battery board intertie breaker must be opened; fourth, the fifth vital battery board manual transfer switch must be aligned to the appropriate distribution panel feeder (A for batteries I and III, B for II and IV); fifth, the selected distribution panel manual transfer board must be aiigned to the appropriate primary vital battery board feeder; and sixth, the selected primary vital battery board /fif th vital battery inter-tie breaker must be closed.
In this mode of operation the fif th vital battery shall be maintained at the required nominal voltage level by the appropriate spare vital battery charger and shall be available, as needed, to supply all loads connected to the pri-mary vital battery board (refer to SQN-DC-V-11.2, "Sequoyah Nuclear Plant Design Criteria for 125-V Vital Battery System, Configuration and Operation").
The substitution of vital battery V for a primary vital battery shall in no manner degrade either the reliability or the capacity of the 125-V de vital power system: All system requirements shall be satisfied and all parameters unchanged.
(Note: To fulfill this requirement, the fifth vital battery and all associated cebling shall be sized such that the minimum primary vital battery board voltage with fifth vital battery connected is, under all circum-stances, greater than or equal to the primary battery board voltage with the primary vital battery connected.)
The fif th vital battery discharge test alignment procedure is as follows:
First, the battery charger V circuit breaker must be opened; second the fifth vital battery board manual transfer switch must be aligned to dis-tribution panel A; third, the distribution panel A battery discharge breaker must be closed; and fourth, the battery discharge test trailer must be positioned and connected as if primary vital battery I were to be discharged.
Recharging of the fifth vital battery shall be accomplished via battery charger V..

ATTACHMENT 2 SIGNIFICANT HAZARDS CONSIDERATION DETERMINATION i-1.
Is the probability of an occurrence or the consequences of an accident or malfunction of equipment important to safety previously evaluated in the safety analysis report increase?
No.
The addition of the fifth vital battery bank will not impact the design of the existing vital battery banks in such a manner as to increase the probability of an accident or malfunction previously evaluated in the FSAR. The fifth vital battery will not interface with any of the existing vital batteries.
2.
Is the possibility for an accident or malfunction of a different type than evaluated previously in the safety analysis report created?
No.
The newly installed equipment will be post-mod tested to assure that the connection of the fifth vital battery does not degrade the operation of the other four channels. IEEE Standards will be followed so that the new fif th vital battery system maintains train separation, provides qualified 1E power and does not degrade the operation of any system. Thus, this change will not create the possibility for an accident or malfunction of a different type than previously evaluated.
3 Is the margin of safety as defined in the basis of any technical specification reduced?
No.
This modification will necessitate a change in the technical i
specifications, but the changes caused by the addition of the fifth vital battery will not cause a degradation of any operating system. The fifth vital battery will operate in the same manner as the existing four, providing qualified low noise 125V DC power. Since the fifth vital battery will be a substitution for a vital power source, the margin of safety is not reduced.
Based on the above Safety Analysis, it is concluded that:
(1) the l
proposed change does not constitute a significant hazards consideration l'
as defined by 10 CFR 50.92; and (2) there is reasonable assurance that the health and safety of the public will not be endangered by the proposed change; and (3) this action will not result in a condition which significantly alters the impact of the station on the environment as described in the NRC Environmental Statement.

5 D_escription of the change This change will allow the fif th-vital battery to be used to satisfy LCOs 3.8.2.1, 3.6.2,2, 3.8.2.3, and 3.8.2.4 for Sequoyah units 1 and 2 when one of the trained vital batteries (vital power channels) is out of service. The change will require installation of support systems, which are necessary to ensure the operability of the fif th vital battery (designated channel V), which will he operable at all times whether the fifth vital battery is in use as a substitute for a tralned vital power channel or not.
The following LCOs will ensure the operability of required subsystems when the fifth vital battery is required. The surveillance requirement on the subsystems will be maintained when the fifth vital battery is substituted for vital power channels I-IV to maintain subsystem operability and operability of the fif th vital battery.
LCO 3.8.2.1 AC Electrical Boards Modes 1, 2, 3, 4 LCO 3.8.2.2 AC Boards and Inverters Modes 5, 6 LCO 3.8.2.3 DC Vital Battery Channels Modes 1, 2, 3, 4 LCO 3.8.2.4 DC Electrical Equipment Modes 5, 6 LCO 3.3.3.8 Fire Detection The following subsystems will be installed to support the operations of the fifth vital battery:
IIcating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning Fire Detection / Protection 12SV DC Charger Electrical Distribution Panels and Wiring These systems are used at dif ferent times during the operation of the fif th power channel. The heating, ventilation and air conditioning, and the fire detection / protection are in operation at all times to maintain the integrity of the fif th vital battery and battery boards. The 125V DC charger is used to maintain the battery at maximum charge (float saltage and specific gravity maintained). It is disconnected from use when the fifth vital power channel la in substitution. The electrical distribution panels and wiring are used when the fifth vital power channel is in use as a substitution power source.
Reason for the Change As currently designed, all four vital channels are required to satisfy the licensing design basis accidents while assuming a single failure. When any one of the four vital channels is declared inoperable, the action statement of LCO 3.8.2.3 allows only two hours to return all channels to operability.
This time constraint limits the magnitude of any maintenance and/or repair work that can be completed while either nuclear unit is at power. Operating experience at Sequoyah has indicated that there is a significant probability of exceeding this two-hour limit and incurring the cost of lost production due to a forced two-unit shutdown.
The addition of the fifth vital battery will preclude this loss of production by providing an alternate power supply which can be substituted for any trained DC channel. 1
i 4
Design Description and Justification for the Change TVA has designed and const ructed.the fif th vital bactery in accordance with the applicable design criteria as noted'and the dealgn description in attachment 1.
The fifth vital power channel is equivalent in operational capability to the existing vital power channels.
The basic concept of the design is to make maximum use of the existing cla's>
lE components. This minimizes the amount of new controls in the main control room, and it provides the fifth channel with control and accident logic circuits which are currently on the plant surveillance program.
Once the fifth vital battery has been substituted for any of the other four vital batteries, the annunciation in the main control room will be an indication of conditions of the fifth channel. The substituted vital battery's annunciation and control will operate the fifth vital battery. This will prevent having to run new cabling for the operation of the fif th vital battery.
The switching required to substitute the fifth vital b'attery for any of~the other four will require six different steps:
(1) Disconnection of the fif th vital battery charger; (2) Connection of spare charger; -(3) Disconnect the inoperable vital battery from battery board; (4) Align the fif th battery to the proper distribution panel; (5) Align the distribution panel to the inoperable battery board; and (6) Cluse the intertie breaker on the distribution panel.
The design provides separation of trained equipment by connection to only one distribution panel, each of which is trained. A sipplified diagram of this is provided by sketch 1.
)
The fif th vital battery room will have supplied a ventilation and heating system to maintain the room within temperature specification 'at all times.
The ventilation will run at all times through two supply headers and two exhaust headers through the ceiling of the room.
[teating is supplied by 30 kW heaters located in the supply headers. The vhntilation is used to maintain the hydro n concentration below ignitable ' limits.
All surveillance requirements on the fifth vital,6attery and vital battery board will be used to verify operability of the fifth vital battery.
Before initial use as a substitute for any of the vital channels, the fifth vital battery will be tested in a program to assure that the fifth battery can be substituted for any of the other four vital batteries. The post modification testing program described below will provide a baseline verification of the fif th vital battery design adequacy.
Post Modification Testing Program TVA will demonstrate the adequacy of the fif th channel vital power source design by performing a series of post modification tests. The test program will first verify the adequacy of the support subsystems required for fift,h vital battery operation. Then the fifth vital battery itself will be functionally tested in accordance with Regulatory Guide 1.32.
A brief description of the post modification testing program is provided.

Post Modification Test (PMT) 31 will cover the following aspects of testing shown below:
After installation of the connection for the fifth vital battery on the existing boards, the boards will be tested to assure that the completed connection of wiring of the installation did not degrade the existing battery board's ability to function.
After' installation of the batteries, they will be discharge tested to assure that they can' supply the rated amount of power.
After' discharge, the battery bank will be recharpe tested to assure that the bank recharges to rated voltage in allowable time.
Af ter assurance that the fif th vital battery is in proper working order, the fifth channel is aligned up separately to the other four vital power channels to assure that the substitution of the fifth channel is operable.
Summary i
The installation of the fif th vital battery system will prevent a two-unic shutdown-when testing or repairing is to be done on any one of the four existing channels. The vital battery will be shown through post modification testing to perform as a suitable replacement for any of the other vital battery boards.
The support systems will perform their function to maintain the fif th battery board system in an operable condition to be a quick replacement for a failed
~
battery.
Sequoyah cperating experience has shown that the plant is vulnerable to the two-hour action statement of LCO 3.8.2.3 and that without this relief a significant probability exists that this action statement will result in a forced two-unit shutdown.
