Title | Inadequate Analysis of Molded-Case Circuit Breaker Test Data |
Description | A finding of very low safety significance (Green) and associated NCV of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion XVI, Corrective Actions, was identified by the inspectors for the failure to identify, and take corrective action to address adverse mold case circuit breaker (MCCBs) test results. Specifically, the licensee failed to recognize an excessive test failure rate, assess the impact on the installed MCCBs, promptly replace all failed MCCBs, and evaluate the past and current operability of the attached loads. As a result, the licensee issued a condition report and an operability evaluation, which found the MCCBs operable. The inspectors determined that the finding was more than minor because not ensuring the function and operability of all required MCCBs supplying safety-related SSCs could lead to the inability to respond to design basis events. The finding screened as very low safety significance because it would not result in the total loss of a safety function. Specifically, the licensee evaluation showed that there was no loss of breaker coordination. The inspectors identified a cross-cutting aspect associated with this finding in the area of human performance, decision making because the licensee did not use conservative assumptions in decision-making.
