Both trains of main feedwater isolation on each main feedwater line are required to be operable. Train A of main feedwater isolation is comprised of main feedwater control valves, main feedwater block valves and startup control valves. -Train B of main feedwater isolation is comprised of the main feedwater isolation valves.

Four independent Class 1 backup air supply systems are provided to assure power available to certain air operated valves in the event of the loss of normal air' supply. One system supplies power for the HFW, (including HFH l

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS Sur Oillance Standards 4.8 AUXILIARY FEEDWATER PUMP PERIODIC TESTING l

Aeolicability Applies to the periodic testing of the turbine and motor driven auxiliary feedwater pumps.

Obiettive To verify that the auxiliary feedwater pump and associated valves are operable.

Specification 4.8.1 Monthly on a staggered test basis at a time when the average Reactor Coolant System temperature is 2280*F, the turbine / motor driven and motor driven auxiliary feedwater pumps shall be operated on recirculation to verify proper operation.

Separate tests will be performed in order to verify the turbine driven capability and the motor driven capability of auxiliary feedwater pump P-318.

The monthly test frequency requirement shall be brought current within 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> after the average Reactor Coolant System temperature is 2280*f for the motor driven pumps.

The turbine driven capability shall be brought current within 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> of obtaining 5 percent reactor power.

Acceptable performance will be indicated if the pump starts and operates for fifteen n'inutes at a flow rate sufficient to assure 475 gpm of flow to the steam generator at a discharge pressure sufficient to drive that flow through the most restrictive flow path to a single steam generator which is at a pressure of 1050 psig.

The monthly testing of the auxiliary feedwater pumps and valves shall be performed in accordance with the inservice inspection requirements of Specification 4.2.2.1.

4.8.2 At least once per 18 month.

l.

Verify that each automatic valve in the flow path actuates to its correct position upon receipt of each auxiliary feedwater actuation test signal.

2.

Verify that each auxiliary feedwater pump starts as designed automatically upon receipt of each auxiliary feedwater actuation test signal.

4.8.3 Monthly, when the average Reactor Coolant System temperature is 2280*F, all auxiliary feedwater system valves in the flow path that are not locked, sealed, or otherwise secured in position are to be inspected to verify they are in the proper position.

Amendment No. 31, 76, 80, 93, 105 4-39

RANCHO SECO UNIT 1 TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS

~

Surveillance Standards 4.8.4 Following maintenance or surveillance performed pursuant to Specifications 4.8.1, 4.8.2, and 4.8.5, those auxiliary feedwater valves manipulated in the performance of the maintenance or surveillance shall be verified to be in the proper position.

4.8.5 Prior to startup following a refueling shutdown or any cold' shutdown of longer than 30 days duration, conduct a test to demonstrate that the motor-driven AFH pumps can pump water from the CST to the steam generator.

Bases The monthly test frequency will be sufficient to verify that the turbine / motor driven and motor driven auxiliary feedwater pumps are operable.

Verification of correct operation will be ruade both from the control room instrumentation and direct visual observation of the pumps.

The OPERABILITY of the auxiliary feedwater systerr ensures that the Reactor Coolant System can be cooled down to less than 305*F from normal operating conditions in the event of a total loss of off-site power.

Valves which are manipulated for maintenance or the performance of surveillance will be verified to be returned to the proper position upon their return to service. This provides a high confidence of AFH system operability and enhances the reliability of the AFH system by augmenting the periodic valve position verification.

The electric driven auxiliary feedwater pumps are capable of delivering a total feedwater flow of 475 gpm at a pressure of 1050 psig to the entrance of the steam generators.

The steam driven auxiliary feedwater pump is capable of delivering a total feedwater flow of 475 gpm to the entrance of the steam generators over the steam generator operating range of 800 psig to 1050 psig.

This capacity is utilized as analytical input to the Loss of Main Feedwater Analysis which is the design basis event for AFH flow requirements.
