for protective action from a digital ESAS subsystem will not cause that subsystem to trip.

The fact that a module has been removed will be continuously annunciated to the operator.

The redundant digital subsystem is still sufficient to indicate complete ESAS action.

The testing schemes of the RPS, the ESAS, and the EFIC enables complete system testing while the reactor is operating.

Each channel is capable of being tested independently so that operation of individual channels may be evaluated.

The EFIC is designed to allow testing during power operation.

One channel may be placed in key locked " maintenance bypass" prior to testing.

This will bypass only one channel of EFW initiate logic.

An interlock feature prevents bypassing more than one channel at a time.

In addition, since the EFIC receives signals from the NI/RPS, the maintenance bypass from the NI/RPS is interlocked with the EFIC.

If one channel of the NI/RPS is in mainenance bypass, only the corresponding channel of EFIC may be bypassed.

The EFIC can be tested from its input terminals to the actuated device controllers.

A test of the EFIC trip logic will actuate one of two relays in the controllers.

Activation of both relays is required in order to cctuate the controllers.

The two relays are tested individually to prevent automatic actuation of the component.

The EFIC trip logic is two (one-out of-two).

Reactor trips on loss of all main feedwater and on turbine trips will sense the start of a loss of OTSG heat sink and actuate earlier than other trip signals. This early actuation will provide a lower peak RC pressure during the initial over pressurization following a loss of feedwater or turbine trip event. The LOFW trip may be bypassed up to 10% to allow sufficient margin for bringing the MFW pumps into use at approximately 7%.

The Turbine Trip trip may be bypassed up to 45% based on BAW-1893, " Basis for Raising Arming Threshold for Anticipatory Reactor Trip on Turbine Trip," October 1985 and the NRC Safety Evaluation Report for BAW-1893 issued from Mr. D. M.

Crutchfield to Mr. J. H. Taylor via letter dated April 25, 1986.

The Automatic Closure and Isolation Eystem (ACI) is designed to close the Decay Heat Removal System (DHRS) return line isolation valves when the Reactor Coolant System (RCS) pressure exceeds a selected fraction of the DHRS design prusure or when core flooding system isolation valves are opened.

The ACI is designed to permit manual operation of the DHRS return line isolation valves when permissive conditions exist.

In addition, the ACI is designed to disallow manual operation of the valves when permissive conditions do not exist.

Power is normally supplied to the control rod drive mechanisms from two separate parallel 480 volt sources.

Redundant trip devices are employed in each of these sources.

If any one of these trip devices fails in the untripped state, on-line repairs to the failed device, when practical, will be made and the remaining trip devices will be tested.

Four hours is ample time to test the remaining trip devices and, in many cases, make on-line repairs.
