IE Bulletin Status Closed IEB 79-25, Failures of Westinghouse BFD Relays in Safety Related Systems.

Duke Power replied on January 4,1980 that a review of the Cherokee Nuclear Station design has revealed that none of the Westinghouse BFD/N13FD relays specifie/- in the subject bulletin are used or planned for use in the safety-related systems at Cherokee.

Closed IEB 79-23, Potential Failure of Emergency Diesel Generator Field Exciter Transformer. Duke Power replied on November 2, 1979 that a review of the Cherokee Nuclear Station design has confirmed that connections have not been made between low KVA rated transformers and high KVA emergency diesel generators without adequate limitations on the flow of circulatory currents at these stations. The diesel generator factory test for Cherokee is expected to be complete April 1, 1983.

Open IEB 79-14 Seismic Analyses for As-built Safety Related Piping Systems.

Duke Power replied on October 30, 1979 that erection of systems at therokee Nuclear Station has not progressed to the point that significant comparisons between design documents and as-built configuration are possible. Duke plans to make the comparison identified in the subject bulletin during their normal inspection progra.
