The r'evision numbers and effective dates are listed in Attachment A. The inspector reviewed each of the 26 revisions to this procedur During the' initial part of the. cable wrap program, a full time QC inprocess inspection was performed. It was later changed to QC inspections at specified hold points. This is discussed under , allegation Ib_, See Section 3.2. The inspection attributes.for the Area Release and Color Separation section were removed from the scope of this procedure and were placed in an independent procedure, since I these activities are different from the cable wrap activities. The inspector did not find any evidence of obvious technical mistakes in any of the 26 revisions to the inspection procedure. The procedure revisions consisted primarily of procedure enhancements to simplify

-

and clarify the inspection attributes. The NRC inspector did not find a basis to support the allegation that the author of the _

      ;

inspection procedure did not know what was going o ' In Revision 22 of the inspection procedure, the licensee added cable wrap installation drawing details to the inspection procedure. These ' details were removed in the next revision to the procedure. However, the. licensee retained the drawings for reference. The drawing numbers and the revisions are listed in Attachment C.

i beginning of the program, one. drawing, SECO-1.2.3.4.A40, was used to provide installation cetails for the cable wrap. Later, Drawing A50 and A52 were added to provide supplemental information for different l cable wrap configurations. Examples of cable configurations covered i by these additional cable wrap drawings are cables splitting into ; buridles, cables entering conduit, and cables entering wall sleeve Drawings A40, A50 and A52 were revised regularly to provide addi- ! tional wrap details and to clarify the instructions. The inspector i did not find deficiencies in any of the drawings or procedures that would have resulted in an unacceptable cable wra i The QC inspection of the cable wraps are performed using a form j attached to inspection procedure 12.1. This form has undergone a i number of revisions. However, the form and QC sign off requirements ! remained in the inspection progrem throughout the 26 revisions to the

     '

inspection procedure. The NRC inspector determined that the quality ; requirements of'the wrap, the overlap of the Siltemp tape, the use of i glass tape and the glass tape overlap were adequately addressed in j each of the revisions to the procedure and in each of the revisions to the installation drawings. The installation drawings contain all of the necessary inspection attributes and an extensive number of l specific details to provide adequate control for special cable wrap j configurations. The inspector did not find any evidence to support ; the allegation that at some point when cable wraps were being { installed there was not an inspection procedure or that the inspec- l tion procedure was not use The NRC inspector determined that if the QC inspector satisfies the attributes in the inspection report f using the installation drawings, the. quality of the wrap should be i assured. The QC inspector is required to use the drawings to verify the method of wrapping for specific configurations. The inspector reviewed selected inspection reports to confirm that all of the

     ,

i inspections attributes were satisfied. A list of these reports is provided in Attachment The inspector observed cable wraps in a number of plant area No deficiencies were identifie ! l

     '

Conclusion l The statement that the drawings and the inspection procedures were frequently revised is tru However, no deficiencies were identified i in any of the procedures or drawings that would have resulted in un- ' acceptable cable wraps. Increased reliance on drawings for '. inspection of sne wraps does not negatively influence the inspection attribute The QC inspectors were required to use the drawings to verify special cable wrap configurations. A combination of the inspection procedure and the drawings retained all the necessary quality requirements to assure the correct installation of the cable 1 wrap. As discussed above some elements of the allegations were supported. However, the quality of the cable wrap was not compromise : L

3.2 Allegation (Ib) Allegation QC use to do inprocess inspection of wrapping. Now because.there is not enough QC inspectors they only. inspect after the job is don Electricians could do anything to cable while QC is not presen : Details The licensee provided complete QC inprocess inspection of cable wrapping from the beginning of the program until October 2, 198 ! The licensee determining that-full QC coverage of cable wrap activi-ties was not necessary to assure the quality of the cable wra Therefore, starting with revision 16.of the inspection procedure, the licensee changed from inprocess full QC coverage of wrap activities to hold points. This allowed a single'QC inspector to cover the- i activities of several cable wrapping crew ' The inspection attributes included.in the inspection procedure are overlap of the Siltemp tape material, tightness of the wrap, adequate l length of the wrap for separation, use of the correct material and i installation in accordance with the drawing details. The lic'ensee ! determined that these attributes could be inspected without continuous QC coverage. The inspector did not identify any problem associated with the licensee action to use hold point Recently, the licensee documente'd four cases of cable wraps performed without observing the first hold point of inspecting the cable for ! damag The inspector reviewed the disposition of these document No deficiencies were identifie j The allegation that the electrician could do anything to the cables was not supported. The alleger did not provide any examples of degraded cable wrap or degraded cables which went undetected by the licensee. The NRC inspector reviewed the qualifications of nine cable i wrap crews. Each crew contained three or more qualified journeymen electricians. The average experience of the electricians was more

     .
     '

than 5 years of Nuclear Construction. The knowledge and experience gained in 5 years of Nuclear Construction activities is adequate for an electrician to recognize the importance of following procedure Conclusion It is true that full QC witnessing of cable wrap activities is not i performe The licensee program to inspect cable wraps at hold j points is an acceptable approach for assuring cable wrap qualit j The NRC did not find any bases to support the allegation that there j were not enough QC inspectors to cover cable wrap activities.

The NRC inspector found no basis to support the allegation that there was inadequate QC coverage by cable wrap crews.. The licensee's approach to inspect cable wraps at hold points is ade'quate to assure ' the quality of the wrap.

, wrap installations performed during the month of March 1987. The NRC inspector determined that the backshift had performed 50 percent more cable wraps than the day shift. Thus, the rejects were proportion- ; ally higher. However, the percentage of rejects was not higher than i the overall 6 percent reject rat The inspector determined that the licensee has a program to verify

' cable wraps before completion of the construction activity. .This i verification program is to be performed under inspection procedure i 12.3 " Area Release Electrical Inspection". This program will provide additional assurance of the quality of the cable wrap !

Conclusion

     ,

It was concluded that the number of cable wrap rejects associated with backshift cable wrap activity was higher tien the number of rejects in-the day shif However, no evidence was found that this 1 was a result of the backshift QC inspectors being less competent than day shift QC inspectors. Rather, the backshift performed 50 percent l more cable wraps and the rejects were correspondingly highe ; 3.6 Allegation (if) Allegation Wrap material is in question. Apparently, electricians get hold of some other type of material that welders use for wispping and , covering and use it for cable wrap. QC inspectors a re told to peel back tape to check wrapping material without a proceCure or any written instruction : Details The other material referred to here is Siltemp 84-CH. T iis material was used in general plant areas to shield cables and otter installa-tions from welding sparks. This material was not qualified for cable ! separation applications. The qualified blanket matvial for cable wrap, Siltemp 188-CH has a similar appearance ;.o 84-C This similarity in appearance resu,: H in th; improper use of this blanket !

-material at several plant location The licensee identified this '

proble They documented 4 such misapplications in Nonconformance and Disposition (N&D) report No. 39178. NRC inspector discussions with licensee QC inspectors indicate that these four cases were from a sample of nine inspected. The use of-this blanket material is very . limited. Preliminary discussions with the licensee indicated that ! this misapplication could potentially affect approximately 10_0 cable ' wraps. The licensee's preliminary disposition of this N&D indicated i that the 84-CH wraps would be reworked with the qualified Siltemp : 188-CH. Later, on April 20, 1987, the licensee indicated they were " considering qualifying the Siltemp 84-CH material . i p I

If previously performed patching remains uncorrected, the only possible effect is an increased wrap thickness. This would result in increased protection for adjacent cable However, the increased thickness of the wrap j material can influence the ampacity and heat buildup of the

The licensee receipt inspection included inspecting for damage or deterioration. However, the cable wrap inspection procedure did not have any material quality attributes. On April 4, 1987, the Licensee i revised the cable wrap inspection procedure 12.1 to include material quality attributes. While tape quality was not an inspection attri-

 ,  bute, the NRC inspector concluded from interviews with 16 QC  ',

inspectors that defective tape was routinely discarded by QC inspector I _(

L .. I The licensee stated and the NRC inspector agreed that the strength of the Siltemp material'is not critical to the required performance of' the cable wrap. The Siltemp material is kept intact by a glass tape wrap which forms the outer layer of the cable wrap. Moreover, the Wyle lab tests performed in 1984 Report no. 17666-02 indicate a substantial margin in the insulating capacity of the cable wrap which is adequate to accommodate minor discrepancies in material . qualit I

     !

The issue of the adequacy of the material quality is close ! The NRC' inspector noted that the drawing controlling the insta11 tion i of the Siltemp blanket material specified a maximum limit of 200s thickness. However, the Siltemp tape wrapping procedure imposed no limit on the maximum allowable thickness of tape wrap on cables (Ref: Allegation (Ig) Section 3.7). This concern applies to localized wrapping of multiple bundles and extended length cable

     'J wraps using S11 temp tape WT-6 ]

In response to questions raised by the NRC inspectors regarding the affect of-cable wrap thickness on the ampacity of the wrapped cable, J the licensee provided the inspectors with the results of cable ! ampacity calculations. The licensee's analysis W.0. 12241 predicted the conductor temperature for several cable wrap configurations. Cal-culations were performed for cables with 3 and 4 layers of Siltemp j thickness for a minimum of 18 inches in wrap length. these calcula- ; tions pertained to localized cable wrapping of multiple cable _

: bundle The Beaver Valley Power Cable Specification 2BVS-828 and 2BVS-30S specified that the maximum conductor temperature for normal ;

operations not exceed 90 The results of these calculations ! Jemonstrated that the maximum conductor temperature for the most restrictive application.is below 90 C. This calculation only applied to short sections with increased cable wrap thicknes The inspector observed that based on the BV-2 practice of cable wrapping, concentric layers of tape material can occur for an extended length of cable wrap. The installation drawing SECO 1.2.3.4-A40 Rev. 11 requires a minimum of one half lapped Siltemp tape application. No maximum lap is specified for the tape application. In order to achieve a minimum of one half lap electricians could have gone to 1 3/4 lap. This would result in 3 j layers of tape on the cable. Data furnished by the licensee for 2 l layers of siltemp material indicate a maximum conductor temperature { of 87.8 C for number 6 power cable for a 60 inches length of wra ! The inspector estimated the maximum conductor temperature for an l extended three layer tape configuration, using data provided by the 1 licensee. This estimate indicated that the maximum conductor j temperature could exceed 90 C. Three layers of tape can potentially l degrade the long term (ie 40 years lifetime) performance of the cable i insulation by the conductor exceeding 90 C, the specified conductor

s The licensee collected all the historical records for rejected l Siltemp tape material. The total reject rate was 4.5 percent from a " total of 24,072 tape reels. The licensee's qualification test data

.for the cable wrap in Wyle Report 17666-02 indicated a substantial !

margin in the insulation capability cf Siltemp 188-CH. With this ! margin, it was determined that some fraying of the Siltemp cable wrap l could be accomodated without affecting the required insulation i characteristics of the cable ~ wrap. Discussions with 16 QC inspectors ! indicated that shredded tape was routinely rejected even though-tape ! quality and shredding was not a QC inspec: tion attribute. The . l inspector had no further questions. A potential problem related to the browning of tapes is being addressed by N&DR 39245.
