During RF0 #9, one train can be without its safety-related bus and/or emergency diesel generator without entering the LCO action statement provided the following conditions are met:

- Fuel movement will not occur until five days following reactor shutdown.

Prior to and during fuel movement, the SB0 D/G or the Shutdown Transformer is required to be operable and capable of supplying power to the emergency bus.

Fuel movement will not occur until the reactor vessel is flooded up to elevation 114'.

The train of SGTS and CRHEAF without its safety related bus or without its emergency diesel generator will have power supplied from a normal offsite source via a non safety-related bus. The normal offsite sources consist of either the Startup Transformer on Unit Auxiliary Transformer (Backscuttle Mode).
