Technical Specification Interpretation (TSI-124). If 92-1324 questions arise in the future regarding what constitutes an adequate Trip Actuating Device Operability Test (TADOT), NRC Generic Letter 96-01 can be referenced for clarification.

STP completed the actions required in NRC Generic Letter 96-01, "Testing Of Safety-Related Logic Circuits". Generic Letter 96-01 requested that licensees:

1) Compare electrical schematic drawings and logic diagrams for the reactor protection system, emergency diesel generator load shedding and sequencing, and actuation logic for the engineered safety features systems against plant surveillance test procedures to ensure that all portions of the logic circuitry, including the parallel logic, interlocks, bypasses and inhibit circuits, are adequately covered in the surveillance procedures to fulfill the technical specification requirements, and
2) Modify the surveillance procedures as necessary for complete testing to comply with the technical specifications.

The completion of these actions make the clarification of the definition of a TADOT in Technucal Specifications unnecessary. If questions come up in the future regarding what constitutes an adequate TADOT, NRC Generic Letter 96-01 can be referenced.
