  • R. F. Fenti. Quality Assurance Auditor Metropolitan Edison Company
  • R. D. Stump, Supervisor, Relay Engineering R. W. Bensel, Electrical Engineer R. N. Prabhakar, Supervisor, Generation Quality Assurance E. Kellogg, Quality Assurance Auditor 2.

Scope of Inspection The inspector stated that this inspection was to audit the methods employed by the licensee for perfoming the relay coordination studies and establishing the settings for protective relays associated with safety-related power supplies for Three Mile Island Unit No. 2.

3.

Relay Coordination Study (Relay Calibration and Trip Set Points)

The licensee stated that the Metropolitan Edison Company is per-feming the safety-related protective relay setting analysis for the 4160 volt systems and higher, while Burns and Roe is perfoming the analysis for the lower voltage systems. Burns and Roe would also perfom the analysis for' all safety-related under voltage re-lays and timers associated with transfer schemes.

The inspector audited that relay calibration and trip setting data sheets, prepared by Metropolitan Edison Company's relay engineering section, for the 4160 volt safety-related systems.

These relay calibrations and trip settings were based on conference Note No.

1055, dated May 20, 1975, of the licensee. The inspector observed that the data sheets contained the calibration and trip settings for each relay on a particular bus, referenced tb requirementsfpro-cedures met in the perfomance of the work, and! each sheet was

identified by a data sheet control number. The specific data sheets audited by the inspector were as follows:

77-13-01 - Relay Coordination Study (Calculated Bus loads)

During a review of the calculated loads on the 4160 volt safety-related buses, the inspector understood that the Metropolitan Edison Com-pany assumed, for the purpose of the relay coordination study, that the total load carried by a circuit breaker would not exceed the manufacturer's rating. The inspector observed that the licensee had identified a potential condition where the feeder breakers to the 2-lE and 2-2E buses would be loaded about 125% of the manufacturer's rating. This condition could exist if the 2-lE or 2-2E bus is used to supply both the 2-3E and 2-4E buses as is provided in the design (via tie breakers).

The licensee stated that GPUSC had been informed of this possible overload condition. The licensee further stated that this potential overload condition would be reviewed and the resolution of this matter documented.

This item is considered to be unresolved, b
