The EDG or its breaker are not accident initiators, therefor the modification can not create the possibility of an accident of a different type than previously evaluated in t.he SAR.
7.6 Does the proposed activity create the possibility of a malfunction of equipment important to safety of a different type than any previously evaluated in the SAR?

7.7 Doco the propoond activity reduce the margin of safsty as dofined in the basis for any Technical Specification?
The temporary modification preposed will increase the overall margin of safety for the plant by eliminating the potential fmilure mode ci operating the EDG connected to the grid with its protective featurco bypassed and trip conditions almost certainly generated by such an eparation.

A review of the EDG control circuits by engineering found that the EDG starts on SIAS. CSAS or CIAS.and that these signals cause the EDG to change from droop mode to isochronous mode (Ref. CWDs 957 & 958 and Vendor Manual 2998-7434).

In the case of SIAS and CSAS (CSAS will only occur with SIAS), the EDG circuit breaker will trip if closed, permitting the EDG to run separate from the offsite power source.
However. CIAS without SIAS does not trip the EDG breaker. resulting in the EDG operating in isochronous mode while still connected to offsite power.

The current drawn by the EDG 2A generator during the reverse power incident was approximately 330 amps, as shown by the ERCADS printout. From the ERDADS Printout the licensee determined that the 2A EDG output current of 477.54 amps reversed to 330.38 amps for a net change of 807.84 amps which was sufficient to actuate the reverse power relay. Concurrent with this. Bus 2A3 voltage changed from 4331.7 volts to 4360.2 as a result of the generator producing additional MVARS, i.e.,
acting as a synchronous capacitor with a high power factor.

e EDG 2B has not been tested with a manual CIAS actuation, therefore its operability was not affected.
The Unit 1 EDGs governor control design is different from the Unit 2 EDGs. The Unit 1 EDGs have been successfully tested using an essentially identical ESFAS test procedure.
Therefore, there is no operability concern fron the Unit 1 EDGs.

This condition has existed since initial construction.
There was no liceps e identii'ication of this failure mode, i.e. receiving aids Signal while paralleled to an offsite power source.
3.
The 2A EDG was operated for approximately 45 seconds with a reverse power trip blocked. A review of the CIEs determined that a local reverse power alars occurred which the licensee believes also generated a control room alars.
y jff Since operators were either unaware or did not question these alarms, it's dubious whether operator actions would have prevented damage if the CIAS had not been reset unblocking the reverse power trip.
Zh The licensee has placed a temporary hold on EDG testing pending resolution of their STAR. Options being considered include:
e Plant Change / Modification (Long Tenn)
Jumper / Lifted Lead 1solating the effected relay (Short Term)
