Dear Mr. Spangenberg:

SUBJECT:

INSTRUMENTATION AND CONTROL SYSTEMS BRANCH SITE VISIT AGENDA FOR CLINT0ll The Instrumentation and Control Systems Branch (ICSB) has proposed July 29, 30, and 31, 1985 for a site visit to Clinton. The enclosure contains the agenda i

items that have been selected so that the staff can evaluate the implementation of I&C systems for both standard ICSB review areas (e.g., physical separation between redundant safety related circuits within instrument cabinets), and special interest areas addressed during the licensing review. The site visit

.will concentrate on those areas which will aid in resolving outstanding and confirmatory. issues listed in Chapter 7 (Instrumentation and Controls) of the SER and issues resulting from the CAT inspection.

Please contact your project manager.by July-19 regarding the acceptability of the proposed dates for the site visit or on any other matters regarding this visit.

Sincerely, Original signed by Walter R. Butler, Chief Licensing Granch No. 2 Division of Licensing

b.

Review the internal wiring of the main control boards and control room back row panels (physical separation between redundant safety related circuits and between safety related and non-safety related circuits, e.g., control and annunciator circuits).

c.

Review the PGCC floor sections (metal barriers) used to provide physical separation between redundant safety related circuits and between safety related and non-safety related circuits.

d.

Review all reactor vessel water level indication provided (indi-cators and recorders; their ranges', safety classification, power supplies,etc.).

e.

Review the safety relief valve position indication required by TMI Action Plan Item II.D.3.

~

f.

Review the containment pressure, water level, and hydrogen con-centration instrumentation required by TMI Action Plan Item II.F.1 (4), (5), & (6).

g.

Review the interfaces between the NSPS and the self test system (STS), and the capability for manually testing NSPS circuits in-dependent of the STS (i.e., channel checks, channel functional I

tests, and channel calibrations).

Review how plant personnel inter-face with the STS via the plant computer using the diagnostic terminal to isolate STS detected faults and to control the STS.

h.

Review ADS instrumentation, including the ADS inhibit switches and the high drywell pressure bypass timers installed to satisfy l

the requirements of TMI Action Plan Item II.K 3.18.

i.

Review the scram discharge volume high water level trip bypass switches and associated annunciation.
