Licensee Action on Previous Enforcement Matters This subject was not addressed in the inspectio.

Unresolved Items New unresolved items were not identified during this inspection.

5.

Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning System (HVAC) (50100)

The inspector selected two documentation packages for HVAC hangers on which the work had been completed, inspected and had received final documentation review.

These packages were for hangers F-5868-1A and F-5870-1A in the diesel generator building at elevation 292',.

The inspector then accom-panied Quality Control (QC) welding inspection personnel and Construction Inspection (CI) hanger inspection personnel who performed a reinspection of the welding and physical mechanical attributes of these components.

The following were evaluated during this inspection:

I a.

Proper location, configuration, identification, and damage, if any; b.

Installation in accordance with approved drawings, procedures, and instructions; c.

Attachments. properly installed; d.

Fastening material type, identification, and torquing; e.

Interferences identified; f.

Melding in accordance with approved drawings and procedures; g.

Inspection personnel qualifications; and h.

Inspection results and nonconformances properly documented.

No violations were deviations were noted in the areas inspected.

6.

Electrical (51053C, 51063C, 92706B)

The inspector selected two completed documentation packages associated with the 120 vdc power supply cables for the uninterruptible power supply cabinets S2 and S3.

These cables are identified as 117958-SA, 11795M-SA, 11795U-SA and 11795V-SA.

The cables were selected primarily to review an installation in which all work and inspection and been completed and the components had received a final documentation review.

An inspection of the completed installation showed that it had been installed in accordance with the applicable design requirements.

A walkdown of the cable routing revealed at least one instance where the five foot vertical separation requirements of IEEE standard 384 and Regulatory Guide 1.75 were not met.

It was noted that where conduit 16101V-SA passes directly above nonsafety trays X1700 and

>(1701 at plan points 3042 and 3044 in the reactor building at elevation 286',

the vertical separation distance is approximately 24".

The nonsafety tray

h

installation had been installed and inspected on August 26, 1982, and the safety-related conduit 16101V-SA was inspected on March 23, 1984.

The inspection of the safety-related conduit failed to identify this lack of separation distance.

Construction inspection procedure

"Installed Electrical Raceway and Components" (TP-42),

paragraph 3.5.4 requires that this: attribute be inspected and documented on the raceway/conduit installation card and TP-42, exhibit 7 by the construc-tion inspector.

A review of these two applicable documents showed the inspector documented this installation as having no separation problem.

Upon being informed" of this unsatisfactory condition by the inspector, CP5L documented this item on Nonconformance Report 85-0239.

The above instance is contrary to the requirements of

CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion X, ANSI N45.2 and the Preliminary Safety Analysis Report Section 1.8.5. 10.

This is a violation, "Inadequate Inspection for Electrical Separation" 400/85-04-01.

The inspector, as a part of an independent inspection, observed a

¹10AMG two conductor cable terminated to a 100 ampere rated breaker in 125vdc cabinet DP-11SA.

This circuit was identified from drawing CAR-2166-B-041, Sheet 674 as circuit No.

and the cable was identified as 10821A-SA.

A. review of the cable pulling and termination cards showed that this work had been completed and had received the final acceptance inspection.

A review of other applicable design documents showed that the circuit had been installed in accordance with design drawings.

A Number

cable is designed to carry a

maximum current of approximately 24 amps.

A review of this circuit showed that it was the power supply to the transfer relays for auxiliary transfer cabinet 1A-SA which has a loading of nearly 100 amps.

The as-built condition of this installation would have resulted in excessive cable overloading and large cable voltage drops that would have resulted in cable failure.

Upon identification of thi s unsatisfactory condition by the inspector, CP5L issued Nonconformance Report 85-279 to document this item.

Discussions with the Integrated Design Inspection Team which conducted a review of this Harris Plant design during thi s inspection period revealed that they, had also identified this and other additional problems while reviewing electrical circuit designs at the offices of EBASCO, architectural engineer for CP&L, in New York.

The failure of design to select the correct size cables for this installation is contrary to the requirements of

CFR Appendix B, Criterion III, ANSI N45.2. 11 and the Corporate QA Manual Section 3.

This is violation, "Inadequate Electrical Design" 400/85-04-02.

Except as noted, no violations or deviations were identified in the areas inspecte.

Preoperational Test Program (71302)

a

~

The inspector conducted tours of the various plant areas.

The following items were observed and assessed during the tours to assure compliance with requirements.

The general condition of housekeeping and the overall condition of equipment was observed.

(2)

The plant was found to be free of any major fire hazards.

Flammable materials were being protected from ignition sources and were being controlled in accordance with site admini strative procedures.

(3)

In-process test activities were observed for the component cooling water pumps and portions of the system.

During the weeks of January

and February 4, 1985, the inspector observed the running of the pumps to fulfill the requirements of Operations Test Procedures E-5 and E-10 (electrical motor and pump test procedures).

On February 7, 1985, the test crew encountered excessive vibra-tions on the outboard end of the component cooling water pump identified as 1B-SB.

The pump was tagged out of service; the outboard pump bearing was replaced; the pump and motor were realigned and coupled, and the required portions of procedures E-5 and E-10 were conducted again.

The inspector inquired about the methods employed by CP&L to evaluate the pump bearing problems associated with component cooling water pump 1B-SB.

As a result, the inspector was informed that the bearing was found to have been installed backwards.

The inspector continued the inquiry and found that the incorrect installation of the bearing had occurred in the manufacturer's shop.=

The inspector asked to see the documentation which iden-tified the unsatisfactory pump condition, to assure that the condition was;properly evaluated for potential reportabi lity to comply with

CFR 50.55(e)

and

CFR 21.

Initially the docu-ment, a

Work Request Authorization (WRA) which identified the bearing condition, did not contain sufficient information to allow a proper evaluation by the responsible group, Regulatory Compli-ance.

The inspector asked if other WRAs have been evaluated for reportabi lity with a similar lack of sufficient detail.

As a

result of the inquiry, CP5L has written a

nonconformance report (NCR-85-0434) identifying the inspector's concern.

This condition will be identified as an Inspector Followup-Item, "Evaluation of Maintenance Work Requests and Authorizations for Reportabi lity",

(400/85-04-03).

This concern will be evaluated further after NCR-85-0434 has received resolution and corrective action to address preventive measure The inspector observed portions of the activities related to the flushing of the charging and safety injection pumps and piping.

Prior to initially starting the pumps, the pump manufacturer's representative evaluated the motor/pump alignment and coupling against the specifications.

CP5L had the pump manufacturers'epresentative present during the operation of the pumps to evaluate pump performance.

The flushing operations were conducted in accordance with the approved procedure (1-2060-F-02).

The prerequisite procedures were completed on or about February 6,

1985, prior to conducting the flushing operations.

The flush included running each of the charging pumps, lA-SA, 1B-SB and 1C-SAB.

(4)

The inspector observed electrical personnel placing cables in their respective cable trays and conduits.

Sufficient care was being taken to prevent damage to the cables being placed and to cables which were already installed.

b.

The inspector observed operations personnel deenergizing electrical components as required by the clearance program when equipment is being placed out of commission for repairs, tests or rework.

C.

The inspector observed the status of the plant being correctly iden-tified in the control room by operations personnel.

The roving operators were making frequent tours of the various buildings and were maintaining adequate control of plant systems and equipment.

d.

The inspector observed the in-process monthly audit, by CP&L Operations personnel, of the equipment clearance tagging system.

The audit was conducted to determine if the tags were in place and if equipment, i.e.

valves and switches, was in the appropriate position such as open, closed, or off.

The inspector observed that the audit identified as least seven situations where the clearence tags were either missing, equipment was not in its proper position, or the tags had an incorrect switch/valve number.

e.

The frequency and intensity of the site activities have increased during the last observed the presence of gA Surveillance and flushing operations of safety-related Operations gA Surveillance three months.

The inspector personnel during the testing systems.

No violations or deviations were identified in the areas inspected.

8.

Fire Prevention/Protection (42051C, 92706B)

'

a.

The inspectors observed the fire prevention and protection activities related to containing combustible materials where the ignition of these materials could damage safety-related structures.

The inspectors also observed the on-going site training activities for the construction fire brigad '

b.

Some of the specific areas observed by the inspectors during this period are as follows:

(1)

Nonflammable protective coverings were observed over such equip-ment as the electrical control cabinets at elevation 296'f the reactor auxiliary building and over various safety-related pumps and components:located throughout the plant.

(2)

The inspectors observed during the various tours of the reactor auxiliary building and the containment building that the accumula-tion of combustible materials in these areas was being minimized.

I'3)

Flammable materials were stored to prevent or reduce the likeli-hood of combustion.

(4)

Welding activities were observed in at least 15 separate locations throughout the;- site and in each instance it was observed that appropriate fire extinguishing equipment was available within close proximity of the welding activities. It was also noted that the portable fire extinguishers contained sufficient fire extinguishing medium, as evidenced by displaying current inspec-tion stickers and having unbroken seals.

(5)

The inspectors observed that at the various elevations throughout the reactor auxiliary building and the containment building, fire suppression devices are strategically located and readily avai 1-able for use.

c.

A review of the fire brigade drill and training records showed that drills and training are conducted on a regular basis for the fire brigade members.

During the above observations the following were referenced for require-ments:

FSAR section 1.8 and 9.5; Regulatory Guide 1.39, NFPA Standard 241 and AP-YII-03 (exhibits, 2,

3 and 4).

No violations or deviations were noted in this areas inspected.

Other Activities a.

The resident inspector assisted the I&E Headquarters Integrated Design Inspection team (IDI) during its inspection.

IDI electrical inspectors were onsite February 11, 1985, to complete this inspection.

The IDI exit meeting was held at the Harris Energy and Environmental Center on February 13, 1985.

Region II attendees were P.

Bemis, Director, Division of Reactor Safety; P.

Fredrickson, Section Chief for CPEL plants, and the resident inspectors for construction and operation The IDI team's findings will be summarized in a report to be issued in approximately 60 days.

b.

The inspectors observed the ongoing activities associated with inspections on the disassembly and reassembly of the Transamerica Delaval diesel engines.

Both of the engines are nearly reassembled.

Start-up testing on these units wi 11 be accompli shed as systems are completed by construction, to support this testing.

C.

d.

During this reporting period four Region II inspectors visited the Harris site.

The results of their inspections are documented in separate Region II inspection reports.

The resident inspector (construction)

accompanied CP&L construction turnover personnel on a

walkdown of the intermediate head passive safety injection system.

The system is identified by CPKL as RFT 1-2090-001.

These walkdowns are to identify work that must be completed by construction prior to system turnover to operations.

On this system numerous items were identified where work must be completed before the system is ready for turnover.

The resident inspector will continue to track this system until it is turned over to operation E 1
