| Description | A self-revealing finding was identified for failure to modify or establish a preventive maintenance (PM) schedule for the turbine-driven auxiliary feedwater (TDAFW) direct current (DC) lube oil pump control switch. On November 18, 2013, plant personnel found the main control room switch for the TDAFW DC lube oil pump failed due to switch contact oxidation. This resulted in the DC oil pump failing to automatically start when demanded during a surveillance test and the continued inoperability of the TDAFW pump. As immediate corrective actions for the November 18, 2013, TDAFW DC lube oil switch failure, CENG staff initiated CR-2013-006727, replaced the switch, verified continuity of the other two switches that were not modified in 1980, and established a compensatory action to verify continuity of the other two switches following manipulation of the switch until they are replaced. Additionally, an appropriate PM will be established for the three switches unless they are modified such that the main control board green light indicates continuity of the circuit. This finding is more than minor because it is associated with the equipment performance attribute of the Mitigating Systems cornerstone and affected the cornerstone objective to ensure the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. Specifically, due to the failure of the main control board switch for the TDAFW DC lube oil pump, the pump failed to start during testing resulting in the continued inoperability of the TDAFW pump. The inspectors evaluated the finding using Attachment 0609.4, Initial Characterization of Findings, worksheet to IMC 0609, Significance Determination Process. The attachment instructs the inspectors to utilize IMC 0609, Appendix A, Significance Determination Process for Findings At-Power. The inspectors determined this finding was not a deficiency affecting the design or qualification of a mitigating SSC, did not represent a loss of system and/or function, and did not represent an actual loss of function of at least a single train. Therefore, the inspectors determined this finding to be of very low safety significance (Green). In accordance with IMC 0612, the finding does not have a cross-cutting aspect because the performance deficiency occurred in 1980 and is not reflective of present plant performance. |
