| Title | Failure to Correct a Control Power Fuse Defect in 4kV Breaker 52/24 |
| Description | A self-revealing finding of very low safety significance was identified for the licensees failure to follow the sites CAP procedure, CAP-NGGC-0200, Corrective Action Program, Revision 26; in that a degraded control power condition for the non-vital 4kV Bus 5 feeder breaker 52/24 was not identified and evaluated through an NCR which resulted in inadequate corrective actions leading to a plant trip and a complicated plant fire. The licensee implemented corrective actions to replace the affected breaker and inspect all breakers potentially affected by the same degraded control power condition
This finding is more than minor because it is associated with Equipment Performance attribute of the Initiating Events Cornerstone and affects the cornerstone objective in that the failure to evaluate and correct the breaker position indicating light, which indicated the lack of breaker control power, resulted in the breaker failing to isolate an electrical fault, resulting in a reactor trip. The inspectors used NRC IMC 0609, Attachment 4, Phase 1 Initial Screening and Characterization of Findings, to evaluate the significance of this issue and determined that this finding contributed to both the likelihood of a reactor trip and the likelihood that mitigation equipment or functions will not be available. Therefore, further significance determination analysis was performed in accordance with IMC 0609, Appendix A, Determining the Significance of Reactor Inspection Findings for At-Power Situations The inspectors conducted a Phase 3 analysis and determined this finding was of very low safety significance because the performance deficiency did not affect the mitigating capabilities of the auxiliary feedwater system and the feed and bleed safety function. This finding has a cross-cutting aspect in the area of problem identification and resolution associated with the corrective action program component because the licensee failed to implement the corrective action program with a low threshold for identifying the issue, and ensuring that the issue was identified completely, accurately, and in a timely manner commensurate with its safety significance (P.1.a). |
