b. The primary sensors for Overtemperature Delta T, Overpower Delta T, low-low average coolant temperature, and hydrogen recombiners' temperature channels were not calibrated as required by TS definition 1.9, " Channel Calibration." The licensee has modified existing procedures to include these sensors in their calibration program as follows:

The licensee provided a current copy of the Nuclear Test Schedules (NTS). All of the above items were correctly entered in the NT In addition. all of the above items for Unit I were verified in place. The licensee was meeting the TS requirements for these items on both unit (Closed) Unresolved Item (315/85028-02; 316/85028-02): Failure to conduct a Channel Functional Test (CFT) following calibration of the Power Range Nuclear Instrumentation. Procedure 2 THP 6030 IMP.231, " Power Range Nuclear Instrumentation Calibration," was performed for all four power range channels. The licensee normally follows up a calibration with a separate CFT to demonstrate operability. Unit 2 was operating at ) 85%

thermal rated power when the licensee discovered the CFT for the power range instruments had not been performed. Approximately 21 days had passed since the calibratio p ,

-., ..

The inspector reviewed the procedure, testing method, and related drawings. It appears the calibration did meet TS definition 1.9, " Channel Calibration,".and the power range channels were operable. However, the calibration method used is not the typical method used to satisfy a channel-functional. The licensee, in this case, does have adequate CFT procedures availabl The licensee has added Step 10.4 to Procedures 2 THP 6030-IMP.231 and, 1 THP 6030 IMP.131 to verify that the appropriate CFT has been complete The inspector recommends all TS calibration procedures have a similar verification ste No violations or deviations were identifie . LER Followup (92700) (Closed) LER No. 86-006: .The response time test procedure did not

. response time (0.5 seconds) has been added into past response times and the total is less than the TS Table 3.3-2 time of 1.2 seconds.

'

In addition, the inspector verified that the underfrequency relay was also calibrated and its delay time was included in the overall

, response time. This was performed adequately in Procedure 12

THP 6030 IMP.041, " Reactor Coolant Pump Bus Underfrequency Relay l Calibration." The TS Table 3.3-2 response time of 1 to 0.6 seconds-

was me (Closed) LER No. 86-007: The response time test for steam generator (SG)

why the full logic was not teste The licensee contacted l Westinghouse.who-stated that the turbine trip logic.was part of the

measured. The overall response time for each train (A and B) was

< to 2.5 seconds. Failure.to adequately test the Turbine-Reactor Trip' response time is a violation of TS 3.3.2.1-and ESF Response Time definition 1.23, Violation (315/86027-01(DRS)). (Closed) LER No. 86-008: Testing of the reactor trip from safety injection (SI) was not performed. The licensee has modified Procedures 1 THP 4030 STP.410 and 411, and 2.THP 4030 STP.510 and .511~to include testing of the. reactor shunt trip function.from SI,.TS 4.3.1.1.1, Table 4.3-1, item 1 (Closed).LER No. 85-021: Failure to perform channel functional tests as required by T Corrective action to this item is discussed in Paragraph (Closed) LER No.-85-043: Failure to perform primary sensor .

neutron flux was measured. Review of Drawing OP-1-98530-5, " Power Range N42 Elementary Diagram," indicated that the licensee was initiating the test at the correct plac However, the special alarm bistable (To - used as the initiating time mark) was connected to the output of Module NM303, " Average Flux Isolation Amplifier."

The time mark (To) should be initiated near the input of NM310,

" Summing and Level Amplifier." The licensee took additional response times on Unit 1 and 2 of the NM310 and 303 modules. The response time was too fast to be measured on a highspeed Honeywell Visirecorder. -There was no inpact on past power range response time testin Modification of STP.100 to change the "To" initiating timing mark location for both units will be tracked as an Open Item (315/86027-02(DRS) 316/86027-02 (DRS)). Review of STP.100 past test packages found the Unit 1 test performed on August 26, 1985, did not have all the measuring and test equipment (MTE) logged on the data sheet. A trace was performed of the MTE records. The instrument mechanic had properly updated the "use" history records. This appears as an isolated case. The MTE used were "in-cal" and there was no impact on the test. The licensee issued Condition Report (CR) No. 1-07-86-821 and the specified immediate action was adequat Review of STP.100 past test package for Unit 2 test performed on

. March 12, 1984, found the Setra pressure transducer calibration data sheets missing. (The procedure required that the data sheets be attached to the test package). The instrument mechanic had properly logged the transducer on the data sheet. The transducer was "in-cal" and there was no impact on the test. The licensee issued CR No. 2-07-86-820 and the specified immediate action was adequat The inspector recommends the step to attach the Setra transducer data sheets to the test package be removed. Logging the transducer on the data sheet will provide the necessary MTE traceabilit Review of Procedures 12 THP 6030 IMP.073 and 2 THP 6030 IMP.273,

" Time Delay Device Calibration," fu.d both procedures were used for relay calibrations. The inspectw o commends a thorough review be completed on both proceduren 7b t ne "12" procedure and remove any Unit 2 devices; change chi ' M' ; rocedure to a Unit 1 procedure. This would prevent a po.ential scheduling conflict and ensure the correct unit relays are calibrate Review of Procedure 1 THP 4030 STP.019, " Steam Generator 1 & 2 Mismatch Protection Channel Set I Surveillance Test (Monthly),"

found administrative signoffs not in effect on similar steam generator mismatch procedures.

The other procedures were as follows: 1 THP 4030 STP.020, " Steam Generator 3 & 4 Mismatch Protection Channel I Surveillance Test (Monthly)"; 1 THP 4030 STP.021, " Steam Generator 1 & 3 Mismatch Protection Channel II Surveillance Test (Monthly)";

1 THP 4030 STP.022, " Steam Generator 2 & 4 Mismatch Protection Channel Set II Surveillance Test (Monthly)".

, , The inspector recommends a procedure review / change policy be developed to ensure similar procedures are updated with current plant practice The potential exists for not adhering to upper tier document changes, The inspector observed portions of surveillance tests 1 THP 4030 STP.410 and 1 THP 4030 STP.020. Quality Control (QC) did not provide any coverage during the tests. The tests were performed satisfactoril The instrument mechanics were qualified to perform the test and they were knowledgeable on the procedures, operating the

,

test equipment, and the system under. tes .

. The technical knowledge of personnel involved in surveillance testing is good. The licensee is continuing with a Technical Specification and surveillance test procedure review. Increased emphasis on improving surveillance test procedure review and change policies will continue

' improvement of the surveillance test progra No violations or deviations were identifie . Open Items Open items are matters which have been discussed with the licensee, which will be reviewed further by the inspector, and which involve some action on the part of the NRC or licensee or both. An open item disclosed

'

during the inspection is discussed in Paragraph . Exit Interview The inspector met with licensee representatives (denoted in Paragraph 1)

on July 11, 1986, to discuss the scope and findings of the inspectio The licensee acknowledged the statements made by the inspectors with respect to items discussed in the report. The inspectors also discussed the likely informational content of the inspection report with regard to documents or processes reviewed by the inspectors during the inspection.
