The onsite emergency AC power system is designed to supply power to safety systems that mitigate the effects of accidents and events delineated in the safety analysis and to power the equipment necessary for long-term cooling. The emergency AC power system design is based on systems important to safety, or as required by individual licensing basis, for accidents concurrent with a LOOP, as well as time to restore offsite power from a LOOP, due to external events. For example, the emergency AC power system can support core cooling capability. In 10 CFR 50.46(b)(5), the NRC requires core cooling capability for an extended period of time (i.e., as long as radioactive materials are present in the core). | |||
