INTRODUCTION REVIEW RESPONSIBILITIES Primary - Power Systems Branch (PSB) Secondary - None j I. AREAS.OF REVIEW The PSB reviews the applicant's'description'of the offsite power grid system with regard to the interrelationships between the nuclear unit, the utility grid and the interconnecting grids. The PSB reviews the onsite power systems to assure that given a loss of the offsite power system and a single failure in the onsite power system sufficient power will be available for mitigating the design basis events. PSB also reviews acceptance criteria that will be implemented in the design of the above systems. II. ACCEPTANCE CRITERIA Table 8-1, "Acceptance Criteria and Guidelines for Electric Power Systems," lists the acceptance criteria currently applied by the staff to electric power systems. Implementation of these criteria in accordance with applicable guidelines of regulatory guides and Branch Technical Positions will provide assurance that systems will perform their design safety functions when required. III. REVIEW PROCEDURES The PSB reviews Section 8.1 of the SAR to assure the following items are included: a brief description of the utility grid and its interconnections to other grids and to the nuclear unit; a brief general description of the onsite power system; and the design bases, criteria, standards, regulatory guides, and technical positions that will be implemented in the design of the electric power systems, including a discussion describing the extent to which these criteria, and guidelines are followed and a positive statement with regard to conformance of the design to each. Rev. 2 - July 1981 USNRC STANDARD REVIEW PLAN Standard review plans are prepared for the guidance of the Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation staff responsible for the review of applications to construct and operate nuclear power plants. These documents are made available to the public as part of the Commission's policy to Inform the nuclear Industry and the general public
