The inspectors noted that the licensees metallurgical report associated with the failed power cable from the Unit 3 startup transformer identified degradation which likely occurred over a lengthy period of time. The inspectors determined that the following inspection activities should be pursued to determine if a performance deficiency exists: Review of the licensees completed cause determination Review of any additional testing and metallurgical reports Review of any license event report submitted by the licensee Review of requirements associated with emergency AC power paths and associated transformers This issue is identified as URI 05000269, 287/2016008-01, Potential lack of adequacy of the licensees maintenance program to detect substantial degradation of cables and their connections used on Oconee large oil filled stationary transformers. |
