REQUIREMENTS where the relay contact operation can be verified without operation of the equipment.

For this latter case, contact operation is verified by a continuity check of the circuit containing the slave relay. . .... mm .. r.m....__ e ;cr/ 92 dry Ne crequ:nci edequ;;;. lt b bo c6 un indu.:.j spero;bs expc.iers, eer.b- @*0 inctru nc..i seiiaomty and operaTirrg1...;erf d;te

> Tnsuf SR 3.3.2.6 SR 3.3.2.6 is the performance of a TADOT. This test is a check of the Manual Actuation Functions and AFW pump start on trip of all MFW pumps. It is performed every 18 months. Each Manual

_ Actuation Function is tested up to, and including, the master relay coils, in some instances, the test includes actuation of the end device (i.e., pump starts, valve cycles, etc.). The Frequency is based on industry operating experience and is consistent with the typical refueling cycle. The SR is modified by a Note that excludes verification of setpoints for manualinitiation Functions. The manual initiation Functions have no assumed setpoints.

SR 3.3.2.7 SR 3.3.2.7 is the performance of a CHANNEL CAllBRATION.

A CHANNEL CALIBRATION is performed cvery 18 months, or approximately at every refueling. CHANNEL CALIBRATION is a complete check of the instrument loop, including the sensor. The test verifies that the channel responds to measured parameter within the necessary range and accuracy.

CHANNEL CAllBRATIONS must be performed consistent with the assumptions of the unit specific setpoint methodology. The difference between the current "as found" values and the previous test 'as left" values must be consistent with the drift allowance used in the setpoint methodology.

e INSERT f

For slave relays and associated auxiliary relays in the ESFAS actuation system circuit that are Potter and Brumfield (P&B) type Motor Driven Relays (MDR), the SLAVE RELAY TEST is performed on an 18-month frequency. This test frequency is based on relay reliability assessments presented in WCAP-13878, " Reliability Assessment of Potter and Brmnfield MDR Series Relays." The reliability assessments are relay specific and apply only to Potter and Brumfield MDR series relays. Quarterly testing of the slave relays associated with non-P&B MDR auxiliary relays will be administratively controlled until an alternate method of testing the auxiliary relays is developed or until they are replaced by P&B MDR series relays I 1
