| Title | Inadequate Work Instructions for Staging of Equipment and Routing of Temporary Power Cables |
| Description | Green. The inspectors identified a Green NCV of 10 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) 50, Appendix B, Criterion V, Instructions, Procedures, and Drawings, for Exelons failure to establish instructions appropriate to the circumstances to properly stage equipment and route temporary power cables. Specifically, during cell replacement of the Class 1E 2A2 125/250 volts direct current (Vdc) safeguards battery, a portable battery charger was staged adjacent to operable 2A1 battery cells and not restrained to prevent potential tipping and shorting of exposed battery cell terminals and a non-safety related extension cord was routed in near contact with exposed safety related cables in an open cable tray. Exelon moved the portable battery charger, removed and rerouted extension cords, and entered the issues into the corrective action program as issue report (IR) 3980217; IR 3980203; and IR 3983203. This finding is more than minor because it adversely affected the configuration control attribute of the mitigating systems cornerstone to ensure the availability and reliability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences (i.e. core damage). Specifically, the portable battery charger was adjacent to the 2A1 battery rack and oriented such that it was susceptible to tipping over and causing electrical shorting, and a non-safety related temporary power cable connected to a non-safety related power source was routed in near contact with safety related cables in an open cable tray which introduced a potential to damage and disable safety related equipment. Using IMC 0609, Appendix A, Exhibit 2, the inspectors determined that this finding was of very low safety significance (Green). Specifically, the finding did not represent a loss of system or function and did not represent the loss of a single train for greater than technical specification allowed outage times or greater than 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br />. The inspectors determined that this finding has a cross-cutting aspect in the area of Human Performance, Training, because Exelon did not provide sufficient training to maintain a knowledgeable workforce and instill nuclear safety values associated with the staging of material and equipment.
