2.0 Backaround i

A number of EQ violations were identified at Calvert Cliff Units 1 & 2 following a region based inspection in February and March of 1987. These deficiencies came after several NRC EQ team inspections that identified rignifican. '"9 equirmnt deficiencies at Calvert Cliffs in 1984 and 198 As a resuls of these findings, the licensee developed a comprehensive program to inspect in detail the installed configuration of 10 CFR 50.49 electrical equipment in Unit 1 (shutdown on April 1,1987) and Unit 2 '

(down for refueling outage). All identified discrepancies vere resolve ,

A task force of Design Engineers, personnel with licensed operator '

experience and contract consultants reviewed the discrepancies. Licensee- !

l interim and long-term corrective actions were planned to improve the EQ ;

program. For the short-term, interim methods were established to provide clear communication of EQ activities to field craft personnel and to provide additional reviews by qualified EQ reviewers. Long-term corrective actions included: an overall EQ Program Manager; revised EQ qualification !

maintenance requirement sheets which clearly provide EQ maintenance requirements; and an independent review of the EQ program.

3.0 EQ Program 'l Licensee management has led the effort to develop a comprehensive .

I program to inspect 10 CFR 50.49 electrical equipment. The QA organization l has provided an independent review of the EQ Program to ensure complete and proper documentation of inspections and subsequent reinspection following corrective maintenance of the discrepancies. Program controls have been established-(CCI-208E) of EQ maintenance requirements (E-406)-

for craftsmen to ensure work is completed as directed. The scope of the revised EQ program encompasses such items as procurement activities, replacement parts, disposition of EQ deviations, modifications to EQ equipment and engineering reviews of environmentally qualified equipmen To ensure a clear line of responsibility and authority, a Principal Engineer from the Plant and Project Engineering Section was named EQ Program Manager, responsible for the establishment and implementation of l

the EQ program. An EQ Systems Engineer, responsible to the EQ Program Manager, has been assigned to resolve day-to-day problems generated by the Qualification Maintenance Progra New paragraphs in CCI-208E denote restrictions on contract personnel and l Vendor Representatives regarding EQ maintenance with examples of what.

l does and does not constitute EQ maintenanc Verification of the licensee revised EQ Program was accomplished by review of the following documents and visual inspection of the following

Training requirements for EQ technicians have been clarified and the required courses listed. Based on the above review and a sample verifica-tion of installed EQ equipment, the NRC inspectors determined that the licensee has established procedures that ensure qualification of electrical equipment within the scope of 10 CFR 50.49 is maintained on a continuing basi .0 Status of Previously Identified items

(Closed) Unresolved Item No. 317/85-03-04 pertaining to the flow instability problem that was observed during tests of a motor-driven l Auxiliary Feedwater Pump (AFW) at low steam generator pressure The problem was attributed to cycling of the automatic recirculation ;
