DearMr.Johnson:

Peryourrequest,weareenclosing copiesofDesignAnalysis4525-1"FaultCurrentAnalysisofPowerDistribution System"Rev1andDesignAnalysis4525-2"Adequacy ofElectricSystemVoltages" Rev1foryourreview.Theseanalysesquantifytheeffectsassociated withtherecentlycompleted offsitepowerreconfiguration (EWR'4525).EWR4525modifiedtheoffsitepowersystemsuchthattherewouldbeadedicated 34.5/4.16kV transformer associated witheachofthetwoindependent offsitetransmission lines.Station204energizes transformer 12AwhichisnowthenormalsourceofpowerforBus12AandsafetytrainAwhileStation13Aenergizes transformer 12BwhichisnowthenormalsourceofpowerforBus12BandsafetytrainB(seefigure1).Thisnormalconfiguration isreferredtoasthe50/50modesinceeachindependent offsitepowersourcesupplies1/2oftherequiredoffsitepower.Theoperators stillhavetheabilitytoputtheoffsitepowersystemineitherthe100/0mode(Transformer 12Bsuppliesalloffsitepower)orthe0/100mode(Transformer 12Asuppliesalloftheoffsitepower).Thenormalconfiguration priortoEWR4525wastohavealloffsitepowersuppliedbytransformer 12A.EWR4525hassignificantly reducedthelikelihood ofasimultaneous lossofoffsitepowertobothsafetytrainsandhasimprovedsystemperformance sincetheelectrical loadisnownormallydividedbetweentwotransformers.

Theprimaryobjective ofDesignAnalysis4525-2istodemonstrate thatthereconfigured offsitepowersupplywillbecapableofmaintaining adequatevoltagesforallrequiredoperating conditions.

Theresultsindicated thatbothoffsitesourcesr5'ot0050242 9005'20PDR4DOCK05000244PPDCgooI Il'IF"~A,4'3 (circuit751fromStation204&767fromStation13A)arecapableofproviding adequatevoltagesforallrequiredfunctions.

Twospecialcasesarediscussed belowwhichrepresent thelimitingcases:1.Thecomputersimulations indicated thatbothoffsitesourcesmayhavedifficulty inmaintaining adequatevoltagesduringthestartupofaReactorCoolantPump(RCP)forthespecialcasewhentheoffsitegridvoltagewasatitsminimumvalue(33kvforcircuit751and116kvforcircuit767).Thisissueiscurrently beingaddressed bymodifying theRCPnormalstartprocedures.

Theoperators havebeeninstructed toverifythatadequateprestartvoltagesexistpriortoattempting anRCPstart.Wehavecalculated circuit767mayalsohaveasimilarproblemwhenattempting aSteamGenerator Feedwater Pump(SGFWP)Start.Thiscomputeranalysisiscurrently beingreevaluated todetermine ifanyexcessive conservatism ispresentintheanalysisandifrequired, theSGFWPstartprocedure willalsobemodified.

ItshouldbenotedthatCircuit767hasnothadanydifficulty todateinstartingeithertheRCPortheSGFWP.2.TheworstcaseLossofCoolantAccident(LOCA)simulation assumestwodegradedoperating conditions:

operating solelyonline767,(100/0mode),andamin'imumgridvoltage(116kv).Theresultsshowallbusvoltagesabove414volts,indicating thatallofthe1Epumpmotorswilloperateandthattheundervoltage relayingonthesebusseswillnotdisconnect themfromoffsitepower.However,thelowest480voltMCCvoltagewas405volts,whichislowerthanRG&E'sacceptance criteria.

TheonlyloadsontheMCCsrequiredtomitigatethisaccidentwouldbeMOVs.WebelievethattheMOVswilloperateproperlyatthisvoltage,however,toprovidegreaterassurance wehaverevisedouroperating limitstowhichtheoffsitegrid,voltageswillbecontrolled whensafeguards equipment isrequired.

Whentheoffsitesupplyisprovidedinthe100/0mode(767isthelonesource)thegridvoltagewillbemaintained nolowerthan118kv.Asimulation hasbeenrunatthisvoltagewhichprovidedresultswithinallacceptance criteria.

Historical datademonstrates thatthegridvoltageisatleast118kvover95%ofthetime.Forthenormaloperating mode,inthe50/50configuration, thesimulation resultsshowthatallofthevoltagesarewithintheestablished

criteria, evenattheminimumgridvoltageof116kv.Itshouldbenotedthatthispotential lowvoltagecondition wasnotcreatedbythereconfiguration oftheoffsitepowersystemandinfact,thelikelihood ofthecondition occurring wassignifi-cantlyreduced.Theabilitytoruntheoffsitepowersysteminthe50/50modewasamajorobjective ofthepowersystemreconfigura-tionproject(EWR4525).ItshouldalsobenotedthatthemostsevereLOCAsimulation forcircuit751(0/100modeandminimumsourcevoltage33kv)resultedinacceptable voltages.
