VYNPS BASES: 3.10 (Cont'd)

In the event that one off-site power source and one emergency diesel generator are unavailable, adequate power is available to operate both emergency safeguards buses.from the operable off-site power source and to operate 100% of the minimum emergency safeguards loads from the operable diesel generator. In addition, the station blackout alternate ac source of power is capable of supplying power to the bus with the inoperable diesel generator. Therefore, continued operation l is permitted for up to 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> with one off-site power source and one  !

emergency diesel generator unavailable.

Either of the two station batteries has enough capacity to energize the vital buses and supply d-c power to the other emergency equipment I for 8 hours9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br /> without being recharged. In addition, two 24 volt ECCS Instrumentation batteries supply power to instruments that provide automatic initiation of the ECCS and some reactor pressure and level indication in the Control Room.

Due to the high reliability of battery systems, one of the two batteries may be out of service for up to three days. This minimizes the probability of unwarranted shutdown by providing adequate time for reasonable repairs. A station battery, ECCS Instrumentation battery, or an Uninterruptible Power System battery is considered inoperable if one cell is out of service. A cell will be considered out of service if its float voltage is below 2.13 volts and the specific gravity is below 1.190 at 77'F.

The Battery Room is ventilated to prevent accumulation of hydrogen gas. With a complete loss of the ventilation system, the accumulation of hydrogen would not exceed 4 percent concentration in 5 days.

Therefore, on loss of Battery Room ventilation, the use of portable ventilation equipment and daily sampling provide assurance that potentially hazardous quantities of hydrogen cas will not accumulate.
