'I
- a. During each refueling outage the diesel generators shall be started and loaded under simulated LOCA and Loss-of-Offsite power conditions, and run for a minimum of' 5 minutes in each case, with emergency loads.
. The proper diesel-generator J starting and loading time, required bus load shedding, and sequential starting and operation of emergency equipment shall be verified.
- b. During each refueling outage, the diesel generator shall be loaded to 4000 KW and held at l this load for one hour after the diesel generator operating temperatures have stabilized.
- c. During each refueling outage, the capability of the diesel generator to reject a load of 4000 KW shall be demonstrated.
This test need not be performed on the common diesel (0) if it was performed in conjunction a
with the previous refueling outage of the other unit.

-ATTACHMENT 2 DESCRIPTION OF ZION'S DEGRADED GRID PROTECTION-SYSTEM Two undervoltage relays are being installed on each 4160 volt Class lE bus. . This relay scheme is connected to a two-out-of-two per bus logic.
When the voltage on a 4160 volt Class lE bus ((1)247, (1)248, (1)249) falls below 3846 (+2%) volts for 8 (+2) seconds, the newly-installed undervoltage relays will de-energize and a 5 (+5%) minute timer will be activated. When the five minutes expire, the iiff-site power supply breaker will be tripped, isolating the 4160 volt bus from the degraded grid.
Subsequently, the diesel' generator will start, load shedding will occur, and the Class lE loads will be sequenced back '.7 to the bus.
The proposed Technical Specifications identify the undervoltage relays, setpoints, required logic, and defines the overall testing requirements.

ATTACHMENT 3 EVALUATION OF SIGNIFICANT HAZARDS CONSIDERATION PROPOSED CHANGES TO ZION TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS APPENDIX A - SECTIONS 3.4 AND 3.15 DESCRIPTION OF AMENDMENT REQUEST An amendment to the Zion Facility Operating License is proposed to incorporate the operability, testing, calibration, and functional requirements of the Degraded Grid Voltage Protection System.
BACKGROUNO 10 CFR 50.92 states that a proposed amendment will involve a no significant hazards consideration if the proposed amendment does not:
(1) Involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated; or (2) Create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated; or (3) Involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety.
In addition, the Commission has provided guidance in the practical application of these criteria by publishing eight examples in 48 FR 14870.
The discussion below below addresses each of these three criteria and demonstrates that the proposed amendment involves a no significant hazards consideration.
BASIS FOR NO SIGNIFICANT HAZARDS CONSIDERATION DETERMINATION Does the proposed amendment I
(1) Involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated; or (2) Create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from f
any accident previously evaluated; or (3) Involve a significant reduction in a marg!n of safety?
DISCUSSION - ITEM 1 The installation of' degraded grid voltage protection provides additional assurance that a stable source of power for the required safety related equipment will be available. This increases the probability that the equipment will be capable of performing the required function. Thus, the probaollity and consequences of the previously analyzed accidents have not been increased.
DISCUSSION - ITEM 2 Reference (a) established the design criteria that spurious operation of the degraded grid protection system would not occur. Reference (b) states that this design goal has been met. Thus, this modification can only serve to enhance the power supply's reliability and does not create the possibility of a new type of accident.
l
, DISCUSSION - ITEM'3 The margin of safety is increased by this change. As discussed above, the safety-related power supply should be more reliable when protected against a degraded grid voltage.
- It should be noted that the proposed Technical Specifications i represent new controls governing the operation of the newly installed protection system. Thus, example (ii) is applicable to the proposed change.
[ Example (ii) reads as follows:
i (ii) A change that constitutes an additional limitation, restriction, or i control not presently included in the technical specifications: for example, a more stringent surveillance requirement.
l Therefore, since the application for amendment satisfies the criteria specified in 10 CFR 50.92 and is similar to examples for which no i significant hazards consideration exists, Commonwealth Edison Company has made a determination that the application involves no significant hazards consideration.
