Title | RHRSW Pump Power Cables Submerged in Water |
Description | n. An NRC-identified finding was identified for the licensees failure to adhere to TVA General Specification 40 (G-40) for Installation, Modification, and Maintenance of Electrical Systems, section 3.5.7, which required standing water in Handholes be kept below any safety related cables. Hand hole numbers 15 and 26 were discovered to have had standing water above several of the Residual Heat Removal (RHR) service water (safety related) power cables from January to May 2014. The licensees failure to adhere to TVA General Specification 40 (G-40) for Installation, Modification, and Maintenance of Electrical Systems, section 3.5.7, which required standing water in hand holes be kept below any safety related cables was a performance deficiency. Specifically, the licensee allowed hand hole numbers 15 and 26 to have standing water above several of the RHR service water (safety related) power cables. The performance deficiency was more than minor because if left uncorrected, it had the potential to lead to a more significant safety concern including cable degradation and increased likelihood of cable failure. This issue screened as having very low safety significance, Green, using IMC 0609 Appendix A, Exhibit 2, Mitigating Systems Screening Questions issued on June 19, 2012, because it affected the design or qualification of a mitigating SSC but the mitigating SSC maintained its operability. The finding had a cross cutting aspect of Problem Identification and Resolution: Resolution because the licensee failed to ensure that corrective actions addressed the cause of the power cable wetting and failure in 2007.
