Title | |
Description | The inspectors identified a finding of very low safety significance (Green) and associated NCV of 10 CFR 50 Appendix B, Criterion V for failure to accomplish activities affecting quality as prescribed by the documented instructions, procedures, or drawings. Specifically, the licensee replaced a solenoid valve on a safety-related chiller in a manner that permitted a ground to develop on a preferred electrical bus after two years of operations. The licensee repaired the solenoid valve and entered the issue into the CAP as CR-PLP-2010-03234. The issue was more than minor because it adversely affected the Equipment Performance attribute of the Mitigating Systems Cornerstone, whose objective is to ensure the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. Specifically, the ground reduced the reliability of the associated safety-related electrical bus. Further, correction of the ground rendered the control room Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning (HVAC) chiller inoperable. The finding screened as Green because there was no loss of system safety function. The licensee determined the cause to be an improperly tightened electrical bushing, and that the proper tightening of bushings was part of electrical maintenance training. Therefore, human error prevention techniques used by the craft during assembly were not sufficient to preclude the bushing from being improperly tightened. |
