Exit Interview The inspection scope and findings were summarized on November 22, 1985, with the Plant General Manager, Operations.

No written material was provided to the licensee by the resident inspectors during this reporting period.

The licensee did not identify as proprietary any of the materials provided to or reviewed by the resident inspectors during this inspection.

Integrated Design Inspection (IDI) (92701)

The resident inspectors reviewed the corrective action for several items which the IDI team documented in Supplement 1 to the IDI report 50-400/

84-48.

The status of these items is as follows:

a 0 Item D. 2. 6-1 "Installation of Charging Pump Room Air Handling Units".

This item involved concerns with respect to the field installation of the charging pump room air handling units.

Specifical1y, the anchor bolts were not torqued to 19 KIPS as assumed in the design analysis and the equipment installation packages were not complete.

The licensee has reviewed the Seismic Qualification Report and noted that none of the anchor bolts experience uplift in a seismic even I

~

~

Since shear is the primary force considered in the analysis, bolt preload is only critical to assure contact between nut and bolted surface, and

"snug tight" as defined in Work Procedure 105 is suffi-cient.

This assessment has been confirmed by the design organization that performed the original analysis.

With respect to the completeness of equipment installation packages, the licensee informed the team of an ongoing special effort at the site to reassemble the equipment installation packages prior to system turnover.

A special group with an approved plan to correct the problem of fra'gmented installation packages was established prior to the Integrated Design Inspection cutoff date.

The team reviewed the plan and implementing procedures, and found them acceptable.

The resident inspectors evaluated the licensee's ongoing efforts concerning the equipment installation package concept.

CP8L requires the responsible mechanical engineering group to make sure that equip-ment installation packages are available, complete and correct prior to a

system being turned over.

Th'is activity has been previously evaluated b'y Region II inspection personnel and is routinely evaluated by the resident inspector staff.

Item D. 4. 5-6,

"Design of Masonry Walls Around Stairway A-4".

The as-built conditioh of masonry walls around stairway A-4 did not agree with the design as described in FCR-AS-1045.

These differences made the as-built walls less conservative than the requirements of the design.

The response from the applicant indicated that the as-const-ructed condition was not what the FCR showed as-built, but Carolina Power and Light (COL) informed the team during the reinspection that they would make sure that the design on the FCR would be adhered to.

The resident inspectors evaluated the as-constructed condition of the masonry wall around stairway A-4.

The inspectors observed that CP8 L initiated FCR-PW-AS-1045 to document the proposed changes to the wall.

On or about April 16, 1985, FCR/PW-AS-1045 was voided and the masonry wall was tom down and reconstructed to meet all of the requirements of the original design.

The inspectors evaluated the gC inspection records and found that the rework began around mid-April and was accepted on June 30, 1985.

Item U5.3-1,

"Independence of Electric Systems".

This item questioned the inconsistency between the FSAR description and the actual design of the load shedding philosophy for nonsafety loads on safety buses.

The team reviewed Design Change Notice DCN 251-532 (Train A) and DCN 251-533 (Train B) with the accompanying control wiring diagrams.

The team was satisfied that, following implementation of these Design Change Notices, the nonsafety loads would be shed from the safety buses during a

LOCA-only condition.

The team found this response to be acceptabl The resident inspectors evalauted the implementation of the above DCNs and observed that electrical design changes have been made to the sequencer panels.

The inspectors reviewed the gC documentation for the two sequencer panels.

The documents indicate that "the electrical modifications were completed about June 15, 1985 and were inspected and accepted in accordance with the applicable construction procedures (TP-68).

Item D5.4. 2,

"Motor-Operated Valve Thermal Overload Protection".

This deficiency identified the incorrect application of motor starter thermal overload heater valves.

The team reviewed the new critieria included in FCR-E-4980 and accompanying drawing CAR-2166-B-041, sheets 4A and 4B, for the'rotection of motor-operated valves.

The team also reviewed Start-up Procedure 1/2-9000-E-06, Revision 5,

which now includes an acceptable method for sizing overload heaters for motor-driven valve operators.

The team found this response to be acceptable.

The resident inspectors verified that FCR-E-4980 had been completed.

The inspectors interviewed preoperational test personnel and reviewed the data sheets implementing Procedure 9000-E-06 f'r two systems and found that the procedure is being correctly implemented.

Item D5.4-4, "Station Service Transformer Protective Relaying".

This deficiency identified inadequate protection for the class lE station service transformers which permitted the transformers to be overloaded by 39X of their qualified rating.

The team reviewed new calculation E2-002-02 which resulted in the overcurrent relay setting being reduced by one tap.

The relay will now provide an overcurrent protection of 125K of the transformer's qualified rating.

While the team preferred the relay setting reduced by an addition tap (which would have still permitted an llew current swing for the system transients),

the team considers the approach to be acceptable, in light if the fact that the licensee has in place a

load managment program (see response to D5. 5-1).

The resident inspectors observed that CP8L has developed a design procedure (7.5. L) titled "System Load Analysis Program" which monitors loading on all 480V class lE buses.

The design procedure requires that any further proposed bus loading be analyzed by Harris Plant Engineer-ing to make sure that the total actual power bus load does not exceed the transformer qualified rating.

Item D.5.5-2,

"DC Equipment Rated Maximum Voltage".

This deficiency questioned the design basis for the dc system maximum permissible voltage.

The licensee is presently conducting a survey of the dc system and vendor data which will document the maximum permissible voltage of class lE dc equipment.

The team reviewed the methodology and results to date.of that survey.

The team is satisfied that, based on no problems being detected by the survey, and the extent of the

review already completed by the licensee, and the commitment to complete the survey, no questions will remain with the maximum permissible dc system voltage of 140 volts.

The resident inspectors evaluated additional information which Ebasco has provided for this IDI item and found that engineering has completed the evaluations which were required to resolve this item.

Item D5.5-4,

"DC System Minimum Voltage".

This deficiency identified errors in the assumptions used in the calculations of voltage drop for the switchgear control circuits.

The team also reviewed Revision 3 to Calculation 44-SKD which used the results of Calculation 20-MRE for the safety-related circuits.

The team also reviewed DCN 251-572 which calls for the addition of interposing relays in the closed circuits of the preferred and backup power supply to the safety-related 6.9 Kv buses.

Based on the commitment to add interposing relays to permit remote manual operation of these safety-related breakers from the control room, the team found this response to be acceptable.

The resident inspectors found that DCN 251-572 has been implemented and the work has been completed.

Item D5.6-1, "Penetration Protection qualification".

This deficiency identified a single failure potential with the redundant protection of the electrical containment pentrations for the reactor coolant pump motors.

The team reviewed Design Change Notice DCN 251-554 which will add a Train B overcurrent trip to the primary breaker protection and will provide an additional input to the backup breaker.

A minor documentation error was noted by the team on control wiring diagram 2166-B-401, sheet 1621, which EBASCO committed to correct f'r all four backup breakers.

The team found this design change an a'cceptable response to this deficiency.

The resident inspectors verified DCN 251-554 and an applicable Field Change Request, FCR-E-5421, had been implemented and the work had been completed.

II Item D5.7-1,

"Use of Motor Data in Setting Procedure".

This deficiency identified a problem with the use of assumptions in the selection of 480 volt motor protection.

The team reviewed calculations used for selection of 480 volt motor protection.

The team reviewed calculations E1-001.1 through El-001.4 for the large safety-related 480 volt motors and FCR-E-5114 which revised the overcurrent relay settings as a result of the new calculations.

The team identified an inconsistency on the relay setting drawing for the residual heat removal pump motor which was acknowledged and corrected by the licensee.

The team agreed with the resulting overcurrent protection for these large 490 volt motors and found this response acceptabl The resident inspectors observed that CP8L has implemented a design procedure 7.5.G, titled "Protective Relay Settings and Coordination".

As a part of the routine inspection, the resident inspectors have observed several instances where responsible operations maintenance personnel made changes to the relay settings for large 480 volt motors.

The inspectors were shown the applicable design documents and noted that the relay settings were checked and changed as required to comply with FCR-E"5114.

Item D5.9-1,

"Reactor Vessel Level Instrumentation RCP Inputs".

This deficiency identified multiple potential failures of the reactor coolant pump inputs into the redundant reactor vessel level instru-mentation systems (RVLIS).

The original design used a common reactor coolant pump switchgear breaker auxiliary contact, a common isolation cabinet power supply circuit and a

common isolation relay to develop input to the redundant RVLIS cabinet.

The team reviewed DCN 251-527 which revised the circuit so that the Train B

RVLIS input uses a

separate switchgear breaker auxiliary contact and a different isolation cabinet.

The team noted that both isolation cabinets are powered from the same uninterruptible power supply but are on different circuits.

The team considers that this response presents an acceptable level of redundancy between the sets of reactor coolant pump inputs to the RVLIS.

The resident inspectors verified that DCN 251-527 had been implemented and the work had been completed.

Information Meeting with Local Officials (94600C)

During the week of November 4, 1985 the Senior Resident Inspector and the Region II Reactor Projects Section Chief for CP8L conducted meetings with local public officials.

Those officials included the mayor of Holly Springs, the mayor of Apex, the mayor of Fuquay-Varina and the Wake County Commissioner whose district encompasses the plant power block.

The o'fficials were given a description of the mission and functional organization of the NRC and its relationship to the construction, preopera-tional testing and the status of major events yet to be accomplished.

During the meetings the officials were encouraged to discuss items of general interest and concern as they related to the Harris Plant.

5.

Fire Prevention/Protection (52051C, 71302)

a.

b.

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 ongoing site training activities for the construction fire brigade.

Some of the specific areas observed by the inspectors during this period were:

(2)

Nonflammable protective coverings were observed over various safety-related pumps and components located throughout the plant.

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

(3)

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

(4)

Welding activities were observed in at least ten separate loca-tions 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.

The inspectors observed that at the various elevations throughout the reactor auxiliary building and the containment building, fire suppression devices were strategically located and readily available for use.

No violations or deviations were identified in the areas. inspected.

6.

Preoperational Test Program (71302, 42400B)

The inspectors conducted tours of the various plant areas.

The followng items were observed and assessed during the tours to assure compliance with requirements:

The general condition of the Plant's housekeeping and the overall condition of equipment were observed.

(2)

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

Fire extinguishing equipment was readily available, and flammable materials were being protected from ignition sources and were being controlled in accordance with site administrative proce-dures.

(3)

(4)

The inspectors 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

'ables which had already been installed.

The inspectors looked for uncontrolled openings in previously cleaned or flushed systems or components.

Where system openings were identified, cleanliness controls were established during flushin b.

(5)

The inspector observed instances in which construction personnel were working on equipment which had already been turned over to the start-up group.

The work was being accomplished under the proper administrative controls provided in the start-up manual.

The inspectors evaluated the activities being conducted by the CP8 L operatoins gA surveillance personnel.

gA surveillance.personnel were present and observed the major preoperational tests conducted during this reporting period.

The results of their observations were promptly documented and distributed to those responsible for the activities which were observed.

C.

d.

e.

The inspectors reviewed log books maintained by the test group to identify problems or plant activities that may be appropriate for additional follow-up.

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

In addition to this review, the inspectors observed licensee, technical representatives and technical inspection personnel during an owners group certification inspection.

This inspection was in progress to provide continuing baseline data for service during future diesel generator operations.

The inspectors witnessed Fracture Analysis Associate's performance of nondestructive examination and inspection of the connecting rod bolt holes for the lA-SA diesel generator.

This inspection was performed to verify that the connecting rods were not unduly overstressed during initial assembly.

The inspectors walked down the chemical and volume control system to compare the as-buHt drawing to the actual installed system.

This verification was performed to insure 'that:

the physical installation was in accordance with CAR-2165-G-805; instrument lines were installed and connected to each instrument; all rem'ote operated valves were operable; and all equipment installed was correctly identified.

The inspector identified a valve with an incorrect identification tag attached to it, and the licensee planned to investigate the cause and correct this discrepancy.

No violations or deviations were identified in the areas inspected.

7.

Other Activities (71302)

a ~

The inspectors, while touring the site operation electrical work area, observed repairs being made on several Brown-Boveri, low-voltage circuit breakers.

The repairs were being made due to failures of vendor installed pushrods for the main contacts.

The inspectors will evaluate the ongoing repairs during subsequent inspection b.

During the week of November 18, 1985, an audit was conducted by NRC licensing personnel.

The audit consisted of evaluating documentation for the environmental qualification of class lE equipment and a tour of the facilities to observe the equipment which was identified.

No violations or deviations were identified in the areas inspected.
