Wey are P7 (10% power) and P8 (74% power). No trip due to loss of flow will occur below 10%

power (P7). When in four loop operation between 10% power and 74%

power, two loops sust signal loss-of-flow to the RPS to initiate a reactor trip. During three loop operation, the idled / isolated loop's channel is in the tripped position. Above 74% power (P8),

any one loop indicating loss-of-flew will initiate a reactor trip.

Trip signals for each loop may cese from any of three sources; opening of the reactor coolant purip breaker, low voltage on the generator bus supplying the pump (4160 volts), and low pressure differential measured between the inlet and outlet plenums of the reactor coolant side of the steam generator.

will cause a reactor trip above 74% power (PS). In operation [

below 74% power (P8), a coincidence of two loss of flow signals (from different loops) is necessary for a reactor trip.

Presently, there is a single Reactor Coolant system flow trans-mitter per loop. his Plant Design Change will replace the existing transmitters and add two additional transmitters per loop to provide redundancy and enhance plant reliability by preventing f inadvertent Reactor Trips.

Remotely-operated double valving is provided to isolate the  !

I residual heat removal system inlet and outlet piping from the reactor coolant system. An electrical interlock between the l reactor coolant system loop 4 pressure channels and the first I (inboard) and second (outboard) set of valves prevents the valves l from being opened when reactor coolant system pressure exceeds 400  !

psig. his interlock protects the residual heat removal system piping which has a design pressure of 500 psig. Key control ,

switches provide further administrative control against misopera-tion of the second (outboard) set of valves. Rose valves are ,

also interlocked and require a pressure permissive signal, RCS pressure less than RHR. design pressure, before they can be opened.

An electrical interlock between the reactor coolant system loop 4 pressure channels ard the low pressure overpressure relief motor operated isolation valves (FR-MOV-596, -597, -598, and -599) prevents these valves from being opened when reactor coolant system pressure exceeds 345 psig. Additionally, an electrical interlock provides an alarm when either PR-MOV-596 or PR-MOV-597 are open and reactor coolant system pressure exceeds 370 psig. The low pressure relief valve setpoint is 380 psig.

Presently, there are two reactor coolant system pressure transmitters (0-3000 psig) on loop 4. @is Plant Design Change will remove the existing transmitters and install a wide range RCS pressure transmitter (0-3000 psig)' and a narrow range RCS pressure transmitter (0-600 psig) on tnth loop 1 and loop 4. his will provide further redundancy and higher setpoint accuracy for NOL and UIors valve interlocks (reference LER 86-018-00).

Se containment isolation system actuation setpoints and two of three initiation logics were designed to ensure system reliability by preventing inadvertent system operation. Both containment isolation system trip setpoints indicate a possible leak in the Ecs and/or a pressure increase in containment.

Upon initiation of the containment isolation cignal all non-essential system penetrations are isolated from the containment.

Some of the penetrations are isolated by norns11y closed manual valves, fail-closed (on loss of instrument air pressure or elec-tric power) air-operated valws, and fail-as-is motor operated valws, while other valws are automatically closed by the containment isolation signal within 60 seconds of its initiation.

Presently, there are six mercoid containment pressure switches (three per train). mis Plant Design change will remove these pressure switches and replace them with category 1, class 1E equivalent pressure switches with higher accuracy and repeata-bility.

meters utilized in the reactor trip system are calculated from various process variables. In any event, whenever certain direct process or calculate.< variables exceed a setpoint, the reactor will be shut down in order to protect against either gross damage to fuel cladding or loss of system integrity which could lead to release of radioactive fission products into the containment.

We reactor trip system consists of sensors with analog circuitry and redundant channels. W e sensors monitor various plant para-meters and consist of redundant logic trains. We logic trains receive inputs from the analog protection channels to complete the logic necessary to automatically open the reactor trip breakers.

Power to the control rod dri'le mechanisms is supplied by two motor generator sets operatinq from two separate 480V, three-phase buses. We output of t3e motor generator sets is 125V ac three- i phase. W e output is rectified to become 125v de which is sent to the operating coils of the control rod drive mechanisms through two reactor trip circuit breakers connected is series with the coils. Before any rod motion can take place, both breakers must be closed. Each breaker is equipped with a shunt trip coil and an undervoltage tripping device. Each shunt trip coil is so con-nected that it will be energized through separate contacts from all reactor trip devices. In addition, another set of reactor, I trip device contacts is so arranged that when reactor trip is called for they interrupt the circuit to the two undervoltage l

Trip signals for each loop may come from any of three sources:

1) opening of the reactor coolant pump breaker, 2), low voltage on the main generator bus supplying the  ;

reactor coolant pung, and

3) low D/P as measured between the inlet and outlet plenums of the steam generator.

Low voltage on a generator bus affects ,two pumps and will always cause a reactor trip above the P-7 setting. Trip signals from a reactor coolant pump breaker or a flow detector, indicating a single loop loss of flow, will cause a reactor trip only above P-8 (74 percent). Below P-8, but above P-7, a loss of flow signal from two different loops is needed for a reactor trip.

During power operations, all four reactor coolant pumps will be in service to remove core sensible heat. For a 345 kV line fault on one of the main generator buses, which will affect two reactor coolant pumps, a reactor trip will occur and the transfer of the two pumps to offsite power occurs in about one second. With this rapid transfer, enough flow is provided to prevent fuel clad damage by the high inertia of the two pumps coasting down and by the two pumps which have been transferred to the outside buses.  !

% e operation of reactor coolant pumps is sensed by auxiliary contacts on the reactor coolant pung motor circuit breakers which indicate when the breakers are opened. We coincidence  !

logic for these trip signals is one of four above 74 percent full power, two of four between 74 percent and 10 percent and no reactor trip below 10 percent.

Voltage on the two 4160 volt busses supplying the reactor coolant pung motors is sensed by undervoltage relays. Since each of these buses supplies two reactor coolant pung motors, '

Bere is a short time delay built into this undervoltage circuit to permit transfer for the busses from one source of supply to another.

b) Loss of Load Reactor Trip Above 10 percent power (P-7), a turbine trip will trip the ,

reactor. Any reactor trip will trip the turbine.

A turbine trip is sensed by low auto stop oil pressure or if all turbine stop valves are shut. mis signal causes the reactor trip. If the reactor trip fails to occur after a turbine trip, the temperature of the reactor coolant rises, causing a surge into the pressurizer increasing its pressure.

W e transient is then terminated by reactor trip from high pressurizer pressure or high pressurizer icvel.

c) Loss of Feedwater Flow Reactor Trip If the feedwater flow to the steam generators is decreased or

stopped, there is danger of losing the reactor coolant heat j- sink, first by uncovering the steam generator tubes, and ultimately by boiling the steam generators dry. Because of thermal stress consideration, it is not advisable to inject cold feedwater into a dry, high temperature steam generator.

PinTECT TITLE CONNECTICUT YANKEE MODERNIZE RPS - PHASE 2 PRCOECT To reduce steam flow quickly, a reactor trip is provided on coincident signals of large steam flow-feed flow mismatch and low steam generator water level for any one of the four steam generators. We early reactor trip will decrease the heat load on the steam generator and allow time for the auxiliary feedwater pumps to be started, preventing the steam generator from boiling dry.

This system uses the flow signals for main steam and feedwater sensed by the Steam Generator Water Level Control System. The steam flow signal for each loop is coapared to the feedwater flow signal for the same loop. If steam flow exceeds feed-water flow by more than 456,000 lb/hr (=20 percent of full power flow), a trip signal occurs and an alarm is sounded.

However, a reactor trip will not occur until the steam gener-ator level, as sensed by the narrow range level transmitter, falls to 10 percent. %e 20 percent mismatch requirement ensures that reactor trip will not occur until the icsd is high enough to require at least 456,000 lb/hr o' teedvater and steam flow per loop.

d) Steam Line Excessive Flow Reactor Trip Steam flow in each of the four main steam lines is seased as a pressure differential across elbow taps located in the first 90 degree elbow outside the reactor containment. Wis -signal is sent to a matar relay bistable in the control room. We bistable generates a trip signal when its set point is ex-

We reactor will respond to a break in a main steam line as if it were a step load increase. Greater steam flow from the secondary system increases heat removal from the reactor coolant and reduces its temperature. We Re, actor Control System inserts positive reactivity in an attengt to restore coolant temperature. he lower coolant temperature also inserts positive reactivity due to the negative moderator temperature coefficient. For a large break downstream of the MSWs, the accident is terminated by' reactor trip on a coincidence of high steam flow as measured by two of four steam flow indicators, or upon closing of any of the four MSWs. For a large break upstream of the MSWs, the transient I will actuate either an overpower or low-pressure reactor trip.

In either case, if the break is not isolated, the continued cooldown will actuate the ECCS due to low RCS pressure.

e) Main Steam Line Trip Valve Reactor Trip Position switches on the MSW8 generate a reactor trip signal when any one of the valves closes for any reason. 21s trip is not in service for plant loads less than 10 percent (P-7) l

Sufficient margins are available so that adequate transient capability exists without spurious reactor trips.

Coincidence of two of four high signals from the power range actuates a reactor trip for overpower protection. The trip set points are adjustable over a range consistent with sub-critical, low power, and full power operations. ,

If the power level reaches a nominal 109 percent of full power on any two of the four channels, a reactor trip will be ,

initiated. A switch allows the operator to manually select j two lower trip set points to be used when the reactor is operated at lower power levels. %ese lower trip points are 25 percent and 74 percent of full power.

High power reactor trips protect against the following incidents:

1) Rod Withdrawal Incident
2) Inactive Loop Startup
3) Steam Line Break
4) Boron Dilution 5). Excess reed Water
6) Large Load Increase
7) Rod Ejection

2. cont'd An increase in consequences is defined as an increase in one of these parameters. Since the value of these parameters are based on conservative calculations, a change in the value of the parameter does not necessarily mean an increase in consequences. An increase in the value must be signi-ficant before it is called an increase in consequences. Wis change does not cause an increase in any of the above parameters since this system upgrade intends to maintain the present functionality of the Reactor Protection and Control System. Werefore, by definition, the charae does not cause e.n increase in consequences beyond the limits for a significant change, is not a change beyond the bounds of the accident analysis, itnd is not an unreviewed safety question on the basis of consequences of ac:ident analysis. .
3. Identify the design basis accidents, if any, for which failure modes associated with the change can be an initiating event.

The failure modes associated with the change can be an initiating event for the following design basis accidents:

a) Excess reedvater UrSAR Analysis

Conclusion:

The results of the analysis demonstrate that the minimum DiBR remins well above 1.3. In addition, there are alarms such as the high-high steam generator level that would alert the operators of the malfunc-tion in the steam generator level control system. %ese alarms in combination with the indications of increased core power, decreased RCS inlet temperature, increases SG level, and increased feedwater flow rate will alert the operator to the excess feedwater flow transient in sufficient time to prevent SG overfill.

b) Loss of Normal reedwater Flow UrSAR Analysis

Conclusion:

he peak RCS pressure resulting from a total loss of normal feedwater does not exceed 110% of design pressure. In addition, liquid discharge from the pressurizer safety valves is not predicted to occur. %e minima M?BR remains above 1.3.

4. Discuss the impact of the change on the probability of occurrence of the design basis accidents identified in 3. Use Attachment 8.A for guidance.

We impact of the change on the probabilities of occurrence of the design basis accidents identified above is considered negligible since the change replacas existing equipnent with upgraded equipnent to perform the identi-cal functions and installs additional equipment to compliment these func-tions. The probability of failure of the replaced and added equipnent is considered no greater thaa the probability of failure of the existing i

3) dcesincrease not increase in thethe probability ofof probability occurrence an accident, within a category,ht previously thoug incredible, to the point where it is now considered credible. W erefore, the change is not considered an Unteviewed safety Question on the basis of the probsbility of accidents.

6. Discuss the inpact of the change and/or the failure sodes associated with the change on the probability of failure of these safety systems. Use Attachment 8.A for guidance.

We change a' .1/or failure modes associated with the change are assumed to have no negative impact on the probability of failure of the safety system.

We change will upgrade existing obsolete instrumentation with state-of-the-art Category 1, Class 1E instrumentation to perform the identical functions.

We following failure analysis information pertains to the roxboro equipment utilized for the PA 83-113 modernization effoet:

A two-of-three logic will be utilized per loop. His change and/or the failure modes associated with this change are assumed to have a positive impact on the probability of failure of the safety syst.em since a single failure of one flow transmitter will not render the protective function inoperable.

n e change will install a wide-range Reactor Coolant System Pressure transmitter (0-3000 psig) and a narrow-range Reactor Coolant System Pressure transmitter (0-600 psig) fed from Reactor Coolant Loop 4. Iden-tical, redundant Reactor Coolant System Pressure transmitters will be in-stalled and fed from Reactor Coolant Loop 1. Wis change and/or the failure modes associated with this change are assumed to have a positive impact on the probability of failure of the safety system since indepen-dence and redundancy will be provided such that no single failure of a component will interfere with the proper operation of an inde ndent or redundant counterpart. Additionally, the narrow-range tran tters will provide a more accurate pressure signal to the Residual Heat Removal (PHR)

System and the Low Temperature Overpressurization System (L10PS) inter-locks. W e new transmitters will be installed in the outer annulus to l ieduce their cyclic integrated exposure which is a contributor to instru-ment error (Presently, two wide-range Reactor Coolant System Pressure transmitters, 0-3000 psig, are installed in the loop area and are fed by Reactor Coolant Loop 4).

Two seismically mounted transmitter racks will be installed in containment to support the Reactor Coolant System Flow and Pressure transmitters. One transmitter rack will support the six flow transmitters for loops 1 and 2, and the two pressure transmitters for Loop 1. We other transmitter rack will support the six flow transmitters for Loops 3 and 4, and the two pressure transmitters for Loop 4. Cabling to redundant transmitters will be f physically separated and installed in separate conduit in containment.

Outside of containment, cabling to redundant transmitters will be phyically separated and installed in separate cable tray. he conduits and cable trays containing redundant transmitter cabling may be supported 4

by the same support. We transmitter rack, conduit supports, and cable i

tray supports will be seismically installed such that their failure will not be considered credible. Thus, the single fcilure criteria remains intact.

W e change will remove the existing six Primary Containment Pressure Switches and install four Primary Containment Pressure Transmitters. The logic will change from 2-out-of-3 (twice) to 2-out-of-4. 21s change and/or the failure modes associated with this change are assumed to have a

'l positive impact on the probability of failure of the safety system since  !

the pressure transmitters will provide higher accuracy and better repeata-bility than the pressure switches.

1 nis change and/or the failure modes associated with the change are assumed [

i ne independence of added equipment is verified by observing that no l 1

equipnent or points of vulnerasility are in comon with counterpart I

redundant equipment channels, systems, or combination of systers. One exception to this, is the use of the existing single pair of instment tubing in each loop as a process connection to the three electrically  !

redundant RCS flow transmitters per loop. However, the net effect of this l change is positive since the increased electrical redundancy will allow a (

single electrical component failure without rendering the protective [

function inoperable. Prior to this change, the protective function was j vulnerable to a single electrical component failure since there was only  !

one flow transmitter per loop. Electrical isolation of instrumentation and i control circuits will be achieved through the use of Class lE isolation  ;

devices applied to interconnections of Class 1E and non-Class lE circuits,  !

as well as, Class lE logic circuits of redundant divisions. Separation of  ;

added redundant equipaent begins at the process sensors and is maintained ,

1. Based upon Part I, assess the impact of the change ar4/or failure edes associated with the change, to deterr.ine if the igact has modified the plant response to the point where it can be considered a new accident.

Discuss the basis for this determination.

Part I determined that the change, and the failure modes associated with the change, have not degraded the performance of a safety syr. tem below that assumed in the design basis analysls. We protective functions provided by ,

J the system will be maintainad and will be performed by Category 1, Class lE equip.nent. Based on this, it is determined that the impact of the change and/or failure modes associated with the change will not modify the plant response to the point where it can be considered a new accident.

2. Detemine if the failure modes associated with the change represent a new unanalyzed accident. Discuss the basis for this determination, ne failure medes asseeiated with this cMnge are similar to the failure modes of existing equipment and do not represent a new unanalyzed accident. l Mditionally, since independent and rhysically separated redundant channels are provided in the instrumentation cabinets, any single failure within the protection system cabinets will not prevent proper protective action at the

< systec level when required.

3. Determine if the change, or a failure mode associated with the ,

Physical separation and electrical isolation will be provided internal to the protection cabinets to reduce the likelihood of interactions between channels in the event of channel malfunction, n ree redundant Reactor c olant System riow trans-  :

mitters will be installed on each loop in place of the existing single flow (

transmitter.  ;

ne assumptions made on system performance for accident analysis will be guaranteed by administrative controls and Technical Specifications requirements foc surveillance and availability to ensure that the Single  ;

railure criteria remains valid. Administrative controls wi)1 require  !

testing at intervals determined from consideration of manuft uturer's i specifications and historical experience with usage of similar equipment.
