- SECTION 14 INITIAL TEST PROGRAM 14.1 SPECIFIC INFORMATION INCLUDED IN THE PRELIMINARY SAFETY ANALYSIS REPORT The objectives of the initial test program were previously provided in the PSAR . 14.1-1 HCGS-UFSAR Revision 0 April 11, 1988 J 14.2 CONSTRUCTION VERIFICATION, PREOPERATIONAL, AND POWER TEST PROGRAM 14.2.1 Summary of Test Program and Objectives The test and startup program consists of three phases: the Phase I construction verification test program, the Phase II preoperational test program, and the Phase III power test program. These programs are summarized below. 14.2.1.1 Construction Verification Test Pro&ram -Phase I The construction verification test program commences during and immediately following construction. The program includes static and dynamic tests, calibration, initial energization, functional checks, hydrostatic tests, meggering of cables/equipment and flushing or cleaning of oil systems. Construction verification tests are performed under the direction of PSE&G and/or Bechtel Construction, Inc. Upon completion of required construction verification testing on a system, applicable documentation is completed and the is jurisdictionally turned over to the Public Service Startup Group (PSSUG). The objective of this program is to verify proper installation of structures, components, and equipment in accordance with design specifications. Snubbers installed on safety related systems, and snubbers installed on non-safety related systems whose failure or failure of the system on which they are installed would adversely affect any safety related system; will utilize final construction Quality Control inspection records for the pre-service inspection baseline records. The final construction Quality Control inspection records for all of these snubbers shall, as a minimum, specifically address verification of the following: HCGS-UFSAR Revision 0 April 11, 1988
- 1. There are no visible signs of damage or impaired operability as a result of storage, handling or installation. 2. The snubber location, orientation, position setting. and configuration (attachments, extensions, etc.) are according to design drawings and specifications. 3. Snubbers are not seized, frozen or jammed by manually stroking all snubbers regardless of size. The mechanical snubbers installed in systems will be stroked just prior to room/area turnover from construction to PSE&G startup. At this time access to these areas is restricted and limited to support of startup program which minimizes the possibility of snubber damage due to construction activities. 4. Adequate swing clearance is provided to allow snubber movement. 5. For hydraulic snubbers, that fluid is to the recommended level and is not leaking from the snubber system. 6. Structural connections such as pins, fasteners, and other connecting hardware such as lock nuts, tabs, wire, cotter pins are installed correctly. 14.2.1.1.1 Exceptions to the Phase I Program Certain systems or equipment will neither be energized or calibrated until jurisdiction has been transferred to PSE&G via a component/system turnover. In such cases, the component/system turnover will occur immediately upon construction completion of non-energized testing activities. Such exceptions are essential to provide PSE&G with maximum time for testing, HCGS-UFSAR training and procedural development on systems and 14.2-2 Revision 0 April 11, 1988
....._..... .. equipment whose function or operation is highly complex or proprietary . 14.2.1.2 Preoperational Test Program-Phase II This program begins with component/system turnover to the PSSUG and terminates with commencement of initial fuel load. It consists of two parts: the initial system operating phase, and the system and integrated testing phase. 1. Initial System Operating Phase During this phase, the PSSUG directs all activities including operational energization of systems, run-in of pumps, verification flushing and chemical cleaning of piping, and implementation of programs for preventive maintenance and system layup. The objective of this phase is to accomplish a controlled, orderly, and safe initial startup and operation of systems and subsystems, in support of ongoing testing and to prepare for subsequent system and integrated testing activities. 2. System and Integrated Testing Phase During this phase, PSSUG performs preoperational test procedures on individual and integrated systems. Additionally, baseline data for inservice inspections are completed, operating and surveillance procedures are finalized, and access control is established. Testing and operator training applicable to the preoperational test program and related to the BWROG response to NUREG 0737, Item I.G.l, will be accomplished during this phase. HCGS-UFSAR To the extent practicable, the objectives of this phase are to: 14.2-3 Revision 0 April 11, 1988
- a. Verify the capability of structures, components, and systems to satisfy their design intent b. Verify that plant construction is in accordance with design specification c. Familiarize plant operating, technical, and maintenance personnel with plant operation d. Confirm the adequacy of plant operating and surveillance procedures. When snubber installation and final construction Quality Control inspection per Section 14.2.1.1 precedes the start of initial fuel load by six months or more, those snubbers will be re-examined prior to fuel load to verify the following: (1) That there is no visable damage or impairment to operability as a result of storage, handling or installation. (2) That adequate swing clearance is provided to allow snubber movement. ( 3) For hydraulic snubbers, that fluid is to the recommended level and is not leaking from the snubber system. Snubbers which are found to be installed incorrectly or otherwise fail to meet the re-examination requirements shall be repaired or replaced and re-examined in accordance with the criteria delineated in Section 14.2.1.1. HCGS-UFSAR 14.2-4 Revision 0 April 11, 1988 14.2.1.3 Power Test Program-Phase III The power test program is performed by the Nuclear Department, Hope Creek Operations (plant staff). The program commences with the start of nuclear fuel loading and terminates with the completion of power ascension testing. Formal tests, denoted as startup tests, are conducted during this program. These tests confirm the design basis and demonstrate, operates and responds to the extent practicable, to anticipated transients that the plant and postulated accidents as designed. Startup testing is sequenced to ensure that plant safety is not dependent upon the performance of untested structures, systems, or components. Testing and operator training applicable to the startup test program and related to the BWROG response to NUREG 0737, Item I.G.l, will be accomplished during this phase. The objectives of the power test program are to: 1. Accomplish a controlled, orderly, and safe initial core loading. 2. Accomplish a controlled, criticality. orderly, and safe initial 3. Conduct low power and power ascension testing sufficient to ensure that design parameters are satisfied and that safety analysis assumptions are correct or conservative. 4. Demonstrate that the plant operates in accordance with design, both during normal steady state conditions and where practical during and following anticipated transients. 5. Evaluate and demonstrate. to the extent possible, plant operating procedures, to ensure that the plant staff is knowledgeable about the plant and procedures, and is fully prepared to operate the facility in a safe manner. 14.2-5 HCGS-UFSAR Revision 0 April 11, 1988

For each test, a summary is presented defining the test objective, prerequisites, test method, and acceptance criteria. Test objectives identify those operating and safety-related characteristics of the plant that are involved in the test. The operating power flow map is presented as Figure 14.2-4. The test conditions are marked on Figure 14.2-4, and each test described in Section 14.2.12.3 is accomplished at the test conditions stated in Figure 14.2-5. '.i"hese two figures represent the startup test schedule. The testing sequence generally runs from test condition 1 through test condition 6, with the exception that test condition 4 (natural circulation) is normally performed subsequent to the testing in test condition 5. 14.2-164 HCGS-UFSAR Revision 0 April 11, 1988 The startup test acceptance criteria are developed and approved by the design group organizations. In developing specific test acceptance criteria, *the design groups will raference material such as: 1. FSAR Chapter 16, Technical Specifications 2. FSAR Chapter 15, Accident Analysis 3. Other FSAR sections 4. Vendor topical reports 5. Vendor technical documents 6. Design specifications 7. General Electric startup test specification. The specific acceptance criteria will be listed in each startup test procedure. The criteria section of each test procedure has up to two sections, which are discussed below: Level 1 If a Level 1 test criterion is not satisfied. the plant must be placed in a hold condition that is judged to be satisfactory and safe, based upon prior testing. Plant operating or test procedures, or the Technical Specifications. may guide the decision on the direction to be taken. Startup tests consistent with this hold condition may be continued. Resolution of the problem must immediately be pursued by appropriate equipment adjustments or through engineering support by offsite personnel if needed. Following resolution. the applicable test portion must be repeated to verify that the Level 1 requirement is satisfied. A description 14.2-165 HCGS-UFSAR Revision 0 April 11, 1988 of the problem resolution must be included in the report documenting the successful test. Level 2 If a Level 2 test criterion is not satisfied, plant operating or startup test plans would not necessarily be altered. The limits stated in this category are usually associated with expectations of system transient performance, and whose characteristics can be improved by equipment adjustments. An investigation of the related adjustments, as well as the measurement and analysis methods, would be initiated. If all Level 2 requirements in a test are ultimately met, there is no need to document a temporary failure in the test report; unless there is an educational benefit involved. Following resolution, the applicable test portion must be repeated to verify that the 2 requirement is satisfied. If a certain controller related Level 2 criterion is not satisfied after a reasonable effort, then the control engineers may choose to document that result with a full explanation of their recommendations. This report must discuss alternatives of action, as well as the concluding recommendation, so that it can be evaluated by all related parties.

Test Method HCGS-UFSAR The RCIC system is to be tested in two ways: a. By flow injection into a test line leading to the condensate storage tank (CST), and b. By flow injection directly into the reactor vessel. The set of CST injection tests consist of manual and automatic mode starts at 150 psig and near rated reactor pressure conditions. The pump discharge pressure during these tests is throttled to be approximately 100 psi to 250 psi above the reactor pressure to simulate the largest expected pipeline pressure drop.

The reactor will be scrammed from outside the control room after a simulated control room evacuation. Reactor pressure and water level will be controlled using SRVs. RCIC, and RHR from outside the control room during subsequent cooldown. The cooldown will continue until RHR shutdown cooling mode is placed in service from outside the control room. Alternatively, verification of satisfactory operation of RHR shutdown cooling mode from outside the control room may be. done at some other, more convenient time during the startup program. In either case, coolant temperature must be lowered at least 50°F while in the shutdown cooling mode. During the shutdown cooling mode demonstration, cooling to the RHR heat exchanger via the safety auxiliaries cooling system and the station service water system will be accomplished from the remote shutdown panel. All other operator actions not directly related to reactor vessel level, temperature, and pressure control will be performed in the main control room. The plant will be maintained in hot standby condition for at least 30 minutes during the performance of this test. 4. Acceptance Criteria Level 2: During a simulated main control room evacuation, the ability to bring the reactor to hot standby and subsequently cool down the plant and control vessel pressure and water level shall be demonstrated using equipment and controls located outside the main control room.

II. Rerulatoty Guid@ 1,68 Revision 2. August 1978: Initial Test Pro1rams for Water-Cooled Nuclear Power Plants HCGS complies with Regulatory Guide*l.68, with the following exceptions and clarifications: 1. Position C.l provides the criteria for selection of plant features that are tested during the initial test program. At HCGS, testing is conducted on structures, systems, components, and design features as described in this section based on their safety-related functions. The objective of Regulatory Guide 1.68 is to describe the scope and depth of a test program required to ensure that plant structures, systems, and components perform satisfactorily in service. The basis for this Regulatory Guide is Appendix B to lOCFRSO, which specifically applies only to testing the performance of safety-related functions. Therefore, this Regulatory Guide is applied only to plant structures, systems, and components that have safety-related function, defined as those plant features necessary to ensure the integrity of the RCPB, the capability to shut down the reactor and maintain it in a safely shutdown condition, or the capability to prevent or mitigate the consequences of accidents that could 14.2-218 HCGS-UFSAR Revision 0 April 11, 1988
'"'-"' . ........_.. -""' result in offsite exposures comparable to the guideline exposure of lOCFRlOO. Safety-related structures, systems, and components are identified as such in this section and are tested to meet the requirements of Regulatory Guide 1.68. Other systems and components within the plant are not safety-related may or may not be tested in accordance with the Regulatory Guide. Since the plant units that are not safety-related by definition do not compromise the safety-related aspects of the plant. it is not planned to test them to the Regulatory Guide. 2. Position C. 7 and Section l.h of Appendix C of Regulatory Guide 1.68 state that one of the objectives of the initial test program is to verify by trial use that the facility operating and emergency procedures are adequate. Because preoperational test procedures are intended to demonstrate system design criteria, they are conducted under system configurations and conditions different than those required by facility operating and emergency procedures. The use of plant procedures is outlined in Section 14.2.9. 3. Deleted. 4. Section 1 of Appendix A states that system vibration, expansion, and restraints may be verified by observation as allowed during Power Ascension Testing by Section 5.0.0 of Appendix A. This position statement does not apply to the vibration monitoring of reactor internals. 5. Appendix A, Paragraphs l.a (1), l.e and l.h (1) concerns expansion and restraint tests.

Comment: 14.2-220 HCGS-UFSAR Revision 0 April 11, 1988 the Emergency loads are tested with nominal voltage available at the Emergency AC Power Distribution System buses. The power source to these buses is either from offsite (normal) or onsite (standby). When the bus is supplied from the onsite source, the available voltage is maintained within specified limits to verify proper functioning and loading of the onsite source. Test abstracts are presented in Section 14.2.12.1.30, 14.2.12.1.32 and 14.2.12.1.33. Testing of emergency loads with maximum and minimum design voltage available is not considered necessary became the station distribution system is designed to maintain voltages _to support starting and operating of loads within their design limits. The station distribution system has been analyzed in accordance with BTP PSB-1 to establish minimum and maximum voltages under several operating conditions with only the offsite source considered available. Actual test voltages at selected points on the station distribution system will be taken and compared with the calculated voltages to validate the analysis performed.
