It was observed that the seismic restraint EFH-45S in the emergency

feedwater system did not conform to the dimensional requirements of the applicable Bergen-Paterson Pipe Support drawing No.1691-1.

The restraint had been installed with a 1/2" clearance on one side of items numbered 1 and 8 instead of a 1/4" both sides as required gg !

by the drawing. The licensee's engineering staff stated that the

Nonconformino Cable Installation

'

}]

a.

The inspector found several vertical cable trays where the

_.

safety related cables had not been tied to the cable rungs as a

speci fied. The cables were instead tied to the outer side of

..Z sections of conduit which had been clamped to the sides of the JF t ray.

The cables were not, therefore, within the confines of 1::-

the trays.

This installation is not in accord with the 2~

constructor's Electrical Construction Procedure ECP-2, "Re-

. 2..

~ " ~

Revision 8 Paragraph 4.12, which states, in part, "All cable

Paragraph 4.12.3 of this procedure states, " Vertical cable

~-.

runs (2) inches in OD and smaller are to be tied down at

"

E intervals of 27 to 36 inches as required." This requirement llg had not been met inasmuch as spacing of the conduit to which
