Title | |
Description | The team identified a Green non-cited violation of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion XVI, Corrective Action, because between April 2008 and July 2017, PSEG failed to promptly identify and correct a condition adverse to quality associated with an automatic voltage regulator (AVR) card installed in the 2C EDG. Specifically, PSEG corrective actions in response to a 2007 MPR Associates Part 21 report did not ensure that the 2C EDG was not susceptible to undesired voltage fluctuations associated with an aged-related defect in the installed AVR card. PSEGs immediate corrective actions included initiating a corrective action NOTF to evaluate operability and prioritize scheduling AVR card replacement. The issue is more than minor because, if left uncorrected, it had the potential to lead to a more significant safety concern. Specifically, without further inspection of the 2C EDG AVR card solder joints, cracks could form in the solder joint connections resulting in undesired voltage fluctuations and potentially preclude the 2C EDG from performing its safety function. In accordance with IMC 0609.04, Initial Characterization of Findings, and Exhibit 2 of IMC 0609, Appendix A, The SDP for Findings At-Power, the team determined that this finding was Green because it was not a design or qualification deficiency, did not involve an actual loss of safety function, did not represent the actual loss of a safety function of a single train for greater than its TS allowed outage time, and did not represent an actual loss of function of one or more non-TS trains of equipment designated as high safety-significant in PSEGs Maintenance Rule program for greater than 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br />. The team determined the finding had a cross-cutting aspect in the area of Problem Identification and Resolution, Self-Assessment, because PSEG did not conduct self-critical and objective assessments of its programs and practices. Specifically, PSEGs pre-inspection self-assessment in May 2017 reviewed PSEGs corrective actions for the MPR Associates Part 21 Report, but did not identify the missed periodic refueling cycle inspections of the 2C EDG AVR card. |
