A

A. Immediate entry into LCO 3.8.7 is required.

(Note: The inverter is required to be powered from the PK battery and connected to the PN bus to be operable. The PN bus remains operable as long as it’s powered from the inverter or voltage regulator and falls under 3.8.9.

OPERBABLE inverters require the associated AC vital instrument bus to be powered by the inverter with output voltage and frequency within tolerances, and power input to the inverters from a 125 VDC station batter.

OPERABLE DC electrical power distribution subsystems require the associated buses to be energized to their proper voltage from either the associated batter or charger. OPERABLE AC vital instrument bus electrical power distribution subsystems require the associated buses to be energized to their proper voltage from the associated inverter via inverted DC voltage, or Class 1E constant voltage regulator.)
