A.2.1.36, BOLTED CABLE CONNECTIONS PROGRAM The Bolted Cable Connections Program will focus on the metallic parts of the cable connections.
This sampling program provides a one-time inspection to verify that the loosening of bolted connections due to thermal cycling, ohmic heating, electrical transients, vibration, chemical contamination, corrosion, and oxidation is not an aging issue that requires a periodic aging management program. A representative sample of the electrical cable connection population subject to aging management review will be inspected or tested. Connections covered under the EQ program, or connections inspected or tested as part of a preventative maintenance program are excluded from aging management review.The factors considered for sample selection will be application (medium and low voltage), circuit loading (high loading), and location (high temperature, high humidity, vibration, etc.).The technical basis for the sample selection will be documented.
This program will be implemented prior to the period of extended operation.
Attachment 2 Page 8 of 23 JAFP-07-0019 FITZPATRICK License Renewal Application Changes LRA Appendix B is revised to add the following:
B.1.31, BOLTED CABLE CONNECTIONS PROGRAM Program Description Cable connections are used to connect cable conductors to other cables or electrical devices. Connections associated with cables within the scope of license renewal are considered for this program. The most common types of connections used in nuclear power plants are splices (butt or bolted), crimp-type ring lugs, connectors, and terminal blocks. Most connections involve insulating material and metallic parts. This program for electrical cable connections (metallic parts) accounts for loosening of bolted connections due to thermal cycling, ohmic heating, electrical transients, vibration, chemical contamination, corrosion, and oxidation.
This program does not apply to the high-voltage switchyard connections.
NUREG-1801, XI.E4, "Metal Enclosed Bus," manages the aging effects for the connections associated with metal enclosed bus. XI.E4 manages the aging effects from thermal cycling, ohmic heating, electrical transients, vibration, chemical contamination, corrosion, and.oxidation on the metallic parts of metal enclosed bus (MEB) connections.
Therefore, MEB connections are not included in this program.Circuits exposed to appreciable ohmic or ambient heating during operation may experience loosening related to repeated cycling of connected loads or cycling of the ambient temperature environment.
Bolted connectors, splices, and terminal blocks may loosen if subjected to significant thermally induced stress and cycling.The design of these connections will account for the stresses associated with ohmic heating, thermal cycling,, and dissimilar metal connections.
Therefore, these stressors/mechanisms should not be a significant aging issue. However, confirmation of the lack of aging effects will be required.This sampling program provides for one-time inspections that will be completed prior to the period of extended operation.
The factors considered for sample selection are application (medium and low voltage), circuit loading (high loading), and location (high temperature, high humidity, vibration, etc.). The technical basis for the sample selection will be documented.
If an unacceptable condition or situation is identified in the selected sample, the corrective action program will be used to evaluate the condition and determine appropriate corrective action.None of the connections in this program are subject to the environmental qualification requirements of 10 CFR 50.49. This plant-specific aging management program has been developed as an alternate to NUREG-1801, XI.E6, to provide additional assurance that electrical cable connections will perform their intended function for the period of extended operation.
Attachment 2 Page 9 of 23 JAFP-07-0019 FITZPATRICK License Renewal Application Changes Evaluation and Technical Basis 1. Scope of Program: Non-EQ connections associated with cables in scope of license renewal are part of this program. This program does not include the high-voltage
(> 35kV)switchyard connections.
In-scope connections are evaluated for applicability of this program. The criteria for including connections in the program are that the connection is a bolted connection and is not covered under the EQ program or an existing preventive maintenance program.2. Preventive Actions: This one-time inspection program is a condition monitoring program;therefore, no actions are taken as part of this program to prevent or mitigate aging degradation.
- 3. Parameters Monitored/Inspected:
This program will focus on the metallic parts of the cable connections.
The one-time inspection verifies that the loosening.
of bolted connections due to thermal cycling, ohmic heating, electrical transients, vibration, chemical contamination, corrosion, and oxidation is not an aging effect that requires a periodic aging management program.4. Detection of Aging Effects: A representative sample of electrical connections within the scope of license renewal and subject to aging management review will be inspected or tested prior to the period of extended operation to verify there are no aging effects requiring.
management during the period of extended operation.
The factors considered for sample selection will be application (medium and low voltage), circuit loading (high loading), and location (high temperature, high humidity, vibration, etc.). The technical basis for the sample selection will be documented.
Inspection methods may include thermography, contact resistance testing, or other appropriate methods including visual inspection based on plant configuration and industry guidance.
The one-time inspection provides additional confirmation to support industry operating experience that shows electrical connections have not experienced a high degree of failures, and that existing installation and maintenance practices are effective.
- 5. Monitoring and Trending:
Trending actions are not included as part of this program because this is one-time inspection program.6. Acceptance Criteria:
The acceptance criteria for each inspection/surveillance are defined by the specific type of inspection or test performed for the specific type of cable connection.
Acceptance criteria ensure that the intended functions of the cable connections can be maintained consistent with the current licensing basis.7. Corrective Actions: If the inspection or test acceptance criteria are not met, the corrective action program will be used to perform an evaluation that will consider extent of condition, the indications of aging effects, and possible changes to the one-time inspection program such as increased frequency and sample size. As discussed in the appendix to NUREG-1801, the requirements of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, are acceptable to address the corrective actions. The JAFNPP Corrective Action Program, which is implemented in accordance with requirements of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, applies to the Bolted Cable Connections Program.8. Confirmation Process: This attribute is discussed in Section B.0.3.Attachment 2 Page 10 of 23 JAFP-07-0019 FITZPATRICK License Renewal Application Changes 9. Administrative Controls:
This attribute is discussed in Section B.O.3.10. Operating Experience:
Operating experience has shown that loosening of connections and corrosion of connections could be a problem without proper installation and maintenance activities.
Industry operating experience supports performing this one-time inspection program in lieu of a periodic testing program. This one-time inspection program will verify that installation and maintenance activities are effective.
The Bolted Cable Connections Program is a new program. Plant and industry operating experience was considered when this program was developed.
Industry operating experience that forms the basis for the program is described in the operating experience element of the NUREG-1801 Section XI.E6 program description.
Plant-specific operating experience is consistent with the operating experience in the NUREG-1801 XI.E6 program description.
Conclusion The Bolted Cable Connections Program will be effective for managing aging effects since it will incorporate proven monitoring techniques, acceptance criteria, corrective actions, and administrative controls.
The Bolted Cable Connections Program will provide reasonable assurance that applicable cable connections will continue to perform their intended function consistent with the current licensing basis for the period of extended operation.
Audit Item 297: LRA Section 3.6.2.2.3, Loss of Material due to Wind Induced Abrasion and Fatigue, Loss of Conductor Strength due to Corrosion, and Increased Resistance of Connection due to Oxidation or Loss of Pre-load Revise: "Connection surface oxidation for aluminum switchyard bus is not applicable since switchyard bus connections requiring AMR are welded connections.
For ambient environmental conditions at JAFNPP, no aging effects have been identified that could cause a loss of intended function for the period of extended operation.
Vibration is not applicable since flexible connectors connect switchyard bus." is replaced by: "Connection surface oxidation and loosening of bolted connections for aluminum switchyard bus is not applicable since the switchyard bus connections requiring AMR are welded connections.
However, the flexible conductors, which are welded to the switchyard bus, are bolted to the other switchyard components.
These switchyard component connections are also included in the infrared PM of the 115 kV switchyard, which verifies the effectiveness of the, connection design and installation, practices.
The infrared PM is performed at least once every year. The flexible conductors were not considered part of the switchyard bus in the application, but these flexible conductors are added to the switchyard bus commodity for completeness.
For environmental conditions at JAFNPP, no significant aging has been identified that could cause a loss of intended function for the period of extended operation.
Vibration is not applicable since flexible connectors connect switchyard bus to active components." Audit Item 302: LRA Table 3.6.2-1, Electrical Components Revise: The environment for Structure and/or Component or Commodity line items "Electrical cables and connections not subject to 10 CFR 50.49 EQ requirements" and "Electrical cables not subject to 10 CFR 50.49 EQ requirements used in instrumentation circuits" is changed from"heat or radiation or air" to "heat, radiation, or moisture and air." Attachment 2 Page 11 of 23 JAFP-07-0019 FITZPATRICK License Renewal Application Changes Audit Item 317: LRA Section 4.3.4, Effects of Reactor Water Environment on Fatigue Life Delete: "Prior to entering the period of extended operation, for each location that may exceed a CUF of 1.0 when considering environmental effects, JAFNPP will implement one or more of the following:
(1) further refinement of the fatigue analyses to lower the predicted CUFs to less than 1.0 using an NRC-approved method;(2) management of fatigue at the affected locations by an inspection program that has been reviewed and approved by the NRC (e.g., periodic non-destructive examination of the affected locations at inspection intervals to be determined by a method acceptable to the NRC);(3) repair or replacement of the affected locations.
Should JAFNPP select the option to manage environmental-assisted fatigue during the period of extended operation, details of the aging management program such as scope, qualification, method, and frequency will be submitted to the NRC prior to the period of extended operation.
And replace with: "At least 2 years prior to entering the period of extended operation, for the locations identified in NUREG/CR-6260 for BWRs of the JAFNPP vintage, JAFNPP will implement one or more of the following:
(1) Refine the fatigue analyses to determine valid CUFs less than 1 when accounting for the effects of reactor water environment.
This includes applying the appropriate Fen factors to valid CUFs determined in accordance with one of the following.
- 1. For locations, including NUREG/CR-6260 locations, with existing fatigue analysis valid for the period of extended operation, use the existing CUF to determine the environmentally adjusted CUF.2. More limiting JAFNPP-specific locations with a valid CUF may be added in addition to the NUREG/CR-6260 locations.
- 3. Representative CUF values from other plants, adjusted to or enveloping the JAFNPP plant specific external loads may be used if demonstrated applicable to JAFNPP.4. An analysis using the NRC-approved ASME code 2001 edition up to and including 2003 addendum, may be performed to determine a valid CUF.The determination of Fen will account for operating time with normal water chemistry and operating time with hydrogen water chemistry.
(2) Manage the effects of aging due to fatigue at the affected locations by an inspection program that has been reviewed and approved by the NRC (e.g., periodic non-destructive examination of the affected locations at inspection intervals to be determined by a method acceptable to the NRC).Attachment 2 Page 12 of 23 JAFP-07-0019 FITZPATRICK License Renewal Application Changes (3) Repair or replace the affected locations before exceeding a CUF of 1.0.Should JAFNPP select the option to manage environmentally assisted fatigue during the period of extended operation, details of the aging management program such as scope, qualification, method, and frequency will be submitted to the NRC at least 2 years prior to the period of extended operation."

-Amendment 5 Updated RAI Responses RAI B.1.16.2-1 RAI 3.6.2-1 RAI B.1.16.2-1 The "scope of program" attribute for AMP B.1.16.2 states that the program implements applicable requirements of ASME Section Xl, Subsections IWA, IWB, IWC, IWD and IWF, and other requirements specified in 10 CFR 50.55a with NRC approved relief requests.The staff notes that there is no regulatory basis to include previously granted inservice inspection (ISI) relief requests within the scope of a license renewal application because the NRC's approval of the relief requests does not extend beyond the scope of the current operating period and because these requests are not subject to processing under the requirements of 10 CFR Part 54. The same holds true for alternative programs that have previously been granted on applicable ASME Section XI inservice testing (IST) requirements.
The staff therefore requests that the applicant either amend the LRA to delete any and all references to relief requests for ASME ISI or IST requirements or amend the LRA to provide a commitment that any new or renewed relief requests that are sought for during the period of extended operation will be processed through the NRC's 10 CFR 50.55a relief request provisions after the operating license for the facility has been renewed.RAI B.1.16.2-1 Response.The revised response to RAI B.1.16.2-1 below supersedes the response in Attachment 1 of LRA Amendment 1.RAI B.1.16.2-1 Revised Response Since ASME code relief requests have their own process under 10 CFR 50.55a, reference to relief requests in the LRA is unnecessary.
The following change is made to the LRA to remove reference to relief requests:
Section B.1.16.2, page B-58, first paragraph in Scope of Program is revised as shown below (strike-outs deleted).The ISI Program manages cracking, loss of material, and reduction of fracture toughness of reactor coolant system piping, components, and supports.
The program implements applicable requirements of ASME Section XI, Subsections IWA, IWB, IWC, IWD and IWF, and other requirements specified in 10 CFR 50.55a with appr.Vo.d NRC , ltrn.atives and relicf ..qu.e.Every 10 years the ISI Program is updated to the latest ASME Section XI code edition and addendum approved by the NRC in 10 CFR 50.55a. Any necessary relief requests will be pursued as required at that time.Attachment 3 Page 1 of 3 JAFP-07-0019 James A. FitzPatrick Oil-Filled Cable System RAI 3.6.2-1 In JAFNPP LRA Table 3.6.2-1, the applicant states that 115 KV oil-filled cable (passive electrical for station blackout) has no aging effect requiring management for meeting the component's electrical intended function.
The staff requests the applicant to provide a technical justification of why an AMP is not required or provide a plant-specific AMP that contains the required ten elements to manage the aging effects due to aging mechanisms such as insulation degradation, moisture intrusion, elevated operating temperature, and galvanic corrosion.
In addition, explain what periodic tests are planned prior to and during the extended period of operation.
RAI 3.6.2-1 Response The revised response to RAI 3.6.2-1 below supersedes the response in Attachment 1 of LRA Amendment 1.RAI 3.6.2-1 Revised Response The underground oil-filled cable environment is constant temperature soil, ambient temperature, and moisture.
The underground oil-filled cables are 350 MCM hollow core copper, oil with impregnated paper / copper wall / intercalated with paper tape / copper bearing lead wall and a polyethylene protective jacket. The underground oil-filled cables use a lead sheath to prevent effects of moisture on the cables. This cable is designed with a thick layer of lead over the cable insulation and an overall jacket over the lead and insulation.
Lead sheath cables are designed for submergence for extended periods.Operating experience was reviewed by searching JAF condition reports and interviewing knowledgeable plant staff. No failures were identified.
This is consistent with the industry operating experience for this type of cable system.The mechanisms
/ stressor identified in this question are not an issue for this type of cable. A lead-sheathed cable is not susceptible to moisture intrusion.
There are no significant environment issues associated with degradation of the paper insulation.
This is supported by plant and industry OE. Elevated operating temperature is not an issue since the cables are designed for the load and do not operate in an area of elevated temperatures.
There are no dissimilar metal connections, so galvanic corrosion is not an issue. Since the cable is lead-sheathed, the insulation material is protected from moisture The JAF oil-filled cable does not have any aging effects that require management.
However, the oil-filled cable system will be included in the Periodic Surveillance and Preventive Maintenance Program as described in Appendix B.1.22, to verify the absence of aging effects that require management.
A preventive maintenance procedure will provide the maintenance activities for the oil-filled cable system that are described in the vendor maintenance requirements.
This program under PSPM will ensure that the oil-filled cable system will be able to perform its intended function into the period of extended operation.
Attachment 3 Page 2 of 3 JAFP-07-0019 LRA Section 3.6.2.1, Aging Management Programs, is revised to add the following AMP:* Periodic Surveillance and Preventive Maintenance Program LRA Table 3.6.2-1 is revised as shown below (strike-outs deleted, underlined text added).Component Type Intended Material Environment AERM AMP NUREG- Table Notes Function 1801, 1 Vol.2 Item Item Oil-filled cable Pressure Carbon Mineral oil Loss of Oil analysis J system -MECH boundary steel, (internal) material External (passive stainless Outdoor surfaces mechanical for steel, weather monitoring SBO recovery) copper (external) alloy, glass Oil-filled cable -Conducts Insulation i an None Periodic J, ELEC (passive electricity material-velte e-- Surveillance 602 electrical for SBC varIeuS and Preventive recovery)
Organic Outdor Maintenance polymer weather polymers ~Soil______________
_____Notes for Table 3.6.2-1 602 -Based on vendor information this transmission cable is not subject to water treeing, since it is designed for continuously wet conditions.
Industry and plant operating experience has not provided any information on failures of this type of cable. The only portion of the cables exposed to the environments (outdoor weather and soil) is the okolene (black polyethylene) outer jacket, which is over the lead sheath and serves as an anti-corrosion and moisture protection.
These environments do not affect the oil impregnated paper insulation.
