( Position Paper l Concerning the Effects of Information Notice 92-18 on the Ability to Perform J Alternate Shutdown at l Arkansas Nuclear One Unit 1 for a fire in the control room, a common method for achieving rafe shutdown is to transfer control of critical components to an alternate shutdown panel. Typically, the alternate shutdown system relies on a single train of components to achieve safe shutdown. ANO has a unique position in regards to Alternate Shutdown capability in two respects.

First, the Alternate Shutdown procedure currently aligns two independent, fully redundant systems. This includes .but .' is not limited to) two electrical buses, two Emergency Teedweter trains, two Make-up trains (i.e. RCS inventory) and two Service water trains. Either system is capable of achieving Hot Shutdown and no single failure on one train will prevent the redundant train from performing it's function.

Secondly, instead of transferring control to an alternate panel, ANO relies upon manual alignment of the required control valves.

This is facilitated by de-energizing the safety related buses i prior to exiting the control room. De-energization will However, during l

" freeze" the valves in their pre-fire position.

ANo's analysis of a control room fire, the only action that was allowed to be credited prior to control room evacuation, was manual reactor trip (reference Generic Letter (GL) 86-10, Enclosure 2, section 3.8.4). Consequently, in the initial stages of the Alternate Shutdown (ASD) Procedure follow-up actions, operations personnel open the feeder breakers of the safety related buses at the switchgear, thus insuring control circuit de-energization as well as isolating power to each valve. .

In developing ANO's Appendix R analysis, the assumption was made that any valve with control cables located in the control room could be subject to spurious operation due to conductors in the control cable shorting together (i.e. hot short). Since credit could not be taken for removing control power from the MOVs prior to control room evacuation, the ASD procedure was written under the assumption that any safe Shutdown valve could have transferred to an incorrect position. Therefore, the operators are tasked with manually aligning all Safe Shutdown valves to their correct position.

ANO foresees that in a control room fire, HOVs could fail l (electrically) in one of three ways (1) Shorts to ground or open circuits would cause the motor to fail, leaving the valve in its current position, (2) Shorts between conductors could cause the valve to spuriously operate (i.e. change position) or l

(3) A "92-18" short which bypasses valve protection features possibly causing mechanical damage to the valve.

l The latter two failures can both be classified as a hot short.

l However, the "92-18" short could possibly prevent the valve from l being positioned manually as explained in the following.

Information Notice 92-18 presented a scenario in which a hot short could cause physical damage to a MOV. Effectively, the short bypasses the protective features of the limit and/or torque switch thereby allowing the motor to continue running until the motor stalls or the valve is unable to handle the l mechanical stresses (i.e. bent stem, yolk bolt breakage,"etc.)

l A valve failure of this nature could prevent operations l

personnel from performing the required manual alignment for the subject valve. Consequently, ANO performed a detailed review of all valves credited in the Appendix R analysis to' determine if a single 92-18 type hot short could prevent Safe Shutdown. The specifies of this review are presented in the attached evaluation.

A brief overview of the evaluation is as follows:

EVALUATIQW MET 50DOLOGY The 92-18 short is of particular concern to those valves which need to change state in order to reach their desired Safe Shutdown position (ex. a normally closed valve that needs to be opened). The 92-10 short could signal these valves to attempt to move further into their current position (i.e. a closed valve would get a close signal, an open valve would get an open signal). Refer to figure 1 for an explanation of the circuitry.

Consequently, the Safe Shutdown valves were examined to determine their required safe Shutdown position versus their l l

normal operating position. Valves could be removed from further consideration if the correct Safe Shutdown position coincides .

l with the failed valve position and the valve was capable of maintaining the pressure boundary. 1 Next, the valves that were identified as possibly failing in the incorrect position were examined to determine if an additional previously credited and approved Alternate Shutdown path was available to perform the desired function.

The results did not identify any single valve failure which could prevent Safe Shutdown.

SUMMARY

In summary, ANO acknowledges that a 92-18 type hot short is theoretically possible. However, the existing Alternate Shutdown measures, which include

1) aligning redundant Safe Shutdown systems and
2) eliminating the possibility of additional hot shorts by promptly de-energizing Hov circuits, are sufficient to preclude a single hot short from preventing Safe Shutdown. .

- Arkansas Huclear one Unit 2 1 For a fire in the control room, a coninon method for achieving safe shutdown is to transfer control of critical components to an alternate shutdown panel. Typically, the alternate shutdown system relies on a single train of components to achieve safe shutdown. ANO has a unique position in regards to Alternate Shutdown Capability in two respects.

First, the Alternate Shutdown procedure currently aligns two independent, fully redundant systems. This includes (but is not limited to) two electrical buses, two Emergency Feedwater trains, two Make-up trains (i.e. RCS inventory) and two Service Water trains. Either system is capable of achieving Hot Shutdown and no single failure on one train will prevent the redundant train from performing it's function.

Secondly, instead of transferring control to an alternate panel, ANO relies upon manual alignment of the required control valves.

During ANo's analysis of a control room fire, the only action '

that was allowed to be credited prior to control room evacuation, was manual reactor trip (reference Generic Letter (GL) 86-10, Enclosure 2, section 3.8.4). Unit 2 differs slightly' from the approach of Unit 1 in that an attempt to de-energize all safety related buses is not performed prior to control room evacuation. Instead, Operations personnel open select breakers throughout the performance of the Alternate Shutdown procedure.

The af fected breakers isolate power to the required Safe Shutdown valves and allow manual operation.

In developing ANO's Appendix R analysis, the assumption was made that any valve with control cables located in the control room could be subject to spurious operation due to conductors in the control cable shorting together (i.e. hot short) . Since credit could not be taken for removing control power from the MOVs prior to control room evacuation, the ASD procedure was written under the assumption that any Safe Shutdown valve could have transferred to an incorrect position.

This would cause the i MOV to continue to drive close until motor stall. A short to the downstream side of the "Open" contact would cause the valve to spuriously open. However, upon reaching the 100% open position, the limit switch contact providng power to the green indicator light would open (prior to valve damage).

Information Notice 92-18 concerns MOVs that could become inadvertently energized by control cable shorting to other energized conductors during a control room fire. The speci6c type of" hot short" described would bypass the nonnal motor protection such as limit and torque switches and possibly damage the operator such that further operation either remotely or manually would not be possible. The purpose of this evaluation was to determine if ANO is subject to " hot shorts" and then to document our position concerning this unlikely scenario.

ESSEf MOVs within ANO Unit I and Unit 2 that are contained on the Components ofInterest list (Attachment 1) were evaluated. This evaluation utilized the assumptions and conditions as stated in the original Fire Hazards Analysis and Appendix R Safe Shutdown Analysis.

Evaluation Methodology An evaluation process was established to review the MOVs on the components ofinterest list for Unit 1 and Unit 2. The first step was to determine if the valves were subject to hot shorts. This was done by reviewing the schematic drawings for each valve and comparing it to the drawings presented in the Infonnation Notice. If the valve was subject to a possibility of hot shorts, then ibrther evaluation was performed to determine if the valve fails in the desired safety position. If the component does not fail in the safe position, then further research was performed to determine if an alternate path was available to accomplish the speel6c safbty fbnction to which it was credited. If the failure position of the valve is also the safety fbnction position, and no alternate means existed to isolate the valve, then an evaluation was performed to determine if the force the valve operator could generate could damage the valve and breach the pressure boundary.

Those components that remained from the analysis described above, were subject to further evaluation and will be described later in this report.

Fifty-five valves were found to have attemate means to accomplish the necessary safety fbactions when subjected to a hot short situation.

j These valves are required to open in order to establish decay heat removal for achieving cold shutdown conditions. The circuit breakers for these valves are opened during normal I

' operation so the valves are not subject to a hot short situation unless they are re-energized after a fire in the control room. However, actions are called out in the alternate shutdown

- procedure (OP1203.02) to disconnect all control wiring from the MCC to th.e control room before these valves are operated. Therefore, these valves will not be affected by a j control room fire.

1 l CV-1404 k)ecayHeat SuctionIsolation Valve I

This valve is required to open in order to establish decay heat removal for achieving cold shutdown conditions. In the altamate shutdown procedure, power to this valve operator is removed early in the control room fire scenario in order to prevent spurious operation of this component.

P.5/14 1

This valve has aho been evaluated from a structural analysis standpoint. The results show that when this valve is subjected to closing force from the motor when in the closed position, the yoke bohs may yield and/or'the stem may band. However, the bolts are not <

expected to break which would leave the manual operator still in place and possibly functional, if the valve stem were to buckle, it would most likely bend on the threaded portion which is.above the valve body. In any case, however, the valve could stiU be manually opened by removing the operator completely and pulling the stem and disc out  ;

by extemal mechanical means. Unit I does not have a time limit on achieving cold  ;

shutdown conditions which would allow enough time to accomplish the necessary actions I to this valve to establish decay heat cooling.

The necessary operations procedures are being revised to open the circuit breaker for CV- '

1404 during power operations. This will eliminate any possibility ofhot shorts occurring In addition, the procedure currently directs plant staff to disconnect all control wiring from the MCC to the control room before this valve is operated.

CV-3643 Service Water Discharge to Aux Cooling Water This valve serves to isolate the non vital Auxiliary Cooling Water (ACW) system fFom the rest of the Service Water System during emergency conditions. Even though this component currently appears on the Components ofInterest list, it is not required to function in order to achieve the safety fbnetion of the Service Water System during a control room fire scenario. Adequate flow exists firom the Service Water Pumps to meet flow demands without this valve closed since no other accident is assumed during a control room fire. This position is supported by an analysis performed by Mechanical Engineering and is documented in IRF 8156. This component will be evaluated for removal from the Appendix R Components ofInterest List. Therefore, in the unlikely event of a hot short in this valve circuit, failure of this valve in the open direction would not have an impact on our ability to cope with a control room fire scenario.

Other Issues CV-1274, RCP Seal Bleedoff Block valve, fbnctions to isolate the normal RCP seal bleedoff during an Appendix R shutdown due to seal damage concerns This valve is the alternate isolation path for CV-1270, CV-1271, CV-1272, and CV-1273. CV-1274 is normally open and fails in the open direction. A mechanical weaklink evaluation has determined that this valve, if failed in the open direction, would not be damaged to the point where it could not be closed manually. The Altemate Shutdown procedure provides guidance to operate this valve manually if electrical operation is not possibid.

Additionally, a weak link evaluation of this valve has revealed that the worst case actuator j

stall thrust is below the maximum allowed thmst in the open direction. Even though the backseat may experience some cracking in this overload condition, it will not affect the f ability of the valve to be closed mar.ually using the handwheel.

Alternate Shutdown Procedure Review As part of this effort, the alternate shutdown procedures for each unit were reviewed against the results of the " hot short" review. . The alternate shutdown procedures for Unit 1 and Unit 2 are OP-1203.02 and OP-2203.014 respectively. These procedures were reviewed to detennine if the nece'ssary guidance was contained in the procedure to accomplish an orderly shutdown while coping with the results of a possible hot short condition. While only one train or component may be necessary to accomplish a particular safety function, the procedures contained guidance for establishing the fbnetion through a variety ofmeans, (with the exception of the components previously discussed). The .

procedures were thorough, clear and except for the previously noted exceptions, do not need revision to include additional guidance for coping with a " hot short" situation.

Other Actions The MOV Program Plan has been revised to include a section providing g" Wee to inspect or evaluate any MOVs on the Components ofInterest list after a control room fire.

This would insure that structuralintegrity had not been compromised and appropriate repair actions were taken before restart 'of the unit.

In addition, a memo has been issued to control room personnelm* forming them of the potential for " hot shorts." Specific attention is given to the components whose ,

procedures are being changed as a result of this analysis.

Summary

  • IN 92-18 has been reviewed against current plant configuration, design bases and operating procedures and the results have been documented in this report. ANO Unit 1 an'd Unit 2 have procedures in place to cope with a control room fire even in the unkkely event of a " hot short" occurring for the vast majority ofMOVs. For the remaining valves, analysis shows that failure of these valves can be dealt with through manual operation of the components. Also, the DH/SDC components are not needed until near the end of the scenario which would allow sufficient time to develop the necessary g*m for their repair.

... .~.

The necessary procedure changes are being made for these MOVs to eliminate any i possibility of " hot shorts" occurring. In summary, " hot shons" occurring during a control room fire at ANO will not affect our ability to safely shut down the reactors and maintain them in a safe shutdown condition.
