Subject:
Failure of F and G Switches
Reference:
GE Hitachi Nuclear Energy, Transfer of Information SC 08-07 Failure of F and G Switches Dated August 25, 2008 Summary During utility testing of an AK-2A-50 circuit breaker it was identified that a failure in a Safety Related GE Hitachi Nuclear Energy (GEH) model F (part number Q192A7153P7) cutoff switch had occurred. An investigation indicates that the failure was caused by an apparent weak spring in the switch that creates the motive force to change position. Both the F and G cutoff switches both utilize the same spring to provide motive forces to change position.
GEH provided the F and G cutoff switches (part numbers Q192A7153P7 and Q192A7153P8 respectively) under unspecified application purchase orders and as such did not have the information required to determine if a Substantial Safety Hazard may exist or have been created, or this potential defect could have lead to the violation of a Technical Specification Safety Limit, therefore, GEH provided a Transfer of Information to the utilities that purchased these devices as unspecified application in accordance with 10CFR21.21(b) so that each identified utility could review their individual plant conditions to determine if the noted condition represents a reportable condition.
However, since additional licensees may have obtained these devices through other means, GEH cannot assure that all end-users have been identified and/or notified.
GEH is therefore providing this information to the NRC for appropriate action.

Background
On February 13, 2008 a General Electric AK-2A-50 circuit breaker failed to close electrically during preventive maintenance activities at a utility. The F switch (Q192A7153P7) was replaced during a circuit breaker overhaul performed by maintenance personnel at that utility. The circuit breaker was last overhauled in 2004. The F switch is a normally open switch that closes when activated, which is part of a control permissive circuit to allow the circuit breaker to close electrically.
The circuit breaker was opened and removed from the plant in support of preventive maintenance activities. A test box was connected to cycle the circuit breaker electrically. The close button was operated and the 52X relay picked up, but the circuit breaker did not close. The F switch was shown to be open by a resistance test. It was then verified that the F switch was fully activated. The F switch was then actuated an additional 3/16-inch and was still found to be open by a resistance test. The F switch was then cycled on the bench and still found to be open.
A replacement F switch, which was obtained from site stock, also failed after 35 cycles. The F switch was replaced again with an F switch from site stock from a more recently purchased batch than the previous switches that had failed. The circuit breaker was then cycled to ensure it was working satisfactorily, and the test was performed satisfactorily. The breaker was returned to service. There have been two other documented events involving defective F switches at this utility.
The defective F switches were returned to GEH for evaluation.
This same switch is sold as a renewal part by GEH as part number Q0192A7153P007 and is used in the overhaul and refurbishment of the AK-50/75/100 and AKR-30/50 families of safety related low voltage power circuit breakers.
GE-Industrial Systems Product Department issued Service Advisory Letter (SAL) 316.0 on January 16, 2003. This SAL described a defect found with the G switch, which is a Normally Closed (NC) pushbutton switch, part number 192A7153P8. The SAL describes an issue where AKR & WavePro Low Voltage Power Circuit Breakers, produced during fiscal week 43 of 2002 (Date code P243&) and fiscal week 44 of 2002 (Date code P244&) may have been manufactured with non-conforming Motor cutoff G switches that may fail to open and fail to de-energize the electric charging motor. GE-Industrial Systems uses this switch in various electrically operated low voltage power circuit breaker control circuit designs. The switch provides a control permissive to the circuit breaker closing spring charging motor and opens when the closing spring is fully charged. The switch opening interrupts power to the charging motor and the motor stops. The defect, as described in SAL 316.0, causes sufficient variability of the switch operating point that in application the switch may not reliably open when acted upon by the parent circuit breaker linkage. If this occurs the charging motor will continue running until damage occurs caused by overheating.
MFN 08-645 Page 3 A similar switch (Type G) is sold as a renewal part by GEH as part number Q0192A7153P008 and is used in the overhaul and refurbishment of the AK-50/75/100 and AKR-30/50 families of safety related low voltage power circuit breakers. A switch failure of the type, described in SAL 316.0, has not been reported in safety related applications.
Refer to figures 1 - 3 for F & G switch typical installation and electrical application.

Discussion Per the GEH evaluation it was concluded, by examination of an X-ray of the internal components of the F switch (Q192A7153P7), that the contact carrier assembly between the lower and upper contact clips had not adequately changed position indicating a weakness in the internal spring. Item 14 (spring) was identified as the weak spring for the F switch (Q192A7153P7), causing a failure to change state.
Also, per SAL 316.0 it was noted, for the G switch (Q192A7153P8), the supplier built the switch with an incorrect, weaker spring supporting the switchs over-travel button. Both the F switch (Q192A7153P7) and G switch (Q192A7153P8) were manufactured with the same internal components with the only difference being the orientation of the contact carrier assembly during component assembly (refer to figures 4 & 5).

MFN 08-645 Page 6 Per GE C & I, Plainville, Cutler-Hammer was the manufacturer for both the F (Q192A7153P7) and G (Q192A7153P8) switches, which later sold the product line in approximately 2003 to another vendor. Cutler-Hammer was the manufacturer of both the F and G switches that have experienced the documented failures.
Therefore, this notification applies to all F (Q192A7153P7) and G (Q192A7153P8) switches shipped during or before 2003 that are marked by C-H on the bottom of the base. There have been no reported failures or defects for either the F or G switches since Cutler-Hammer sold the product line to the new manufacturer. GE C & I continues to use both the F & G switches in present breaker designs with no documented failures since the change in suppliers.
Recommendation Those plants that utilize GEH Type F or G cutoff switches (part numbers Q192A7153P7 and Q192A7153P8 respectively) utilized in AK-50/75/100 and AKR-30/50 families of Safety Related low voltage power circuit breakers, or Eaton Cutler-Hammer switches (part number 8980K250 or 8980K251) utilized in any Safety Related application, should identify those applications, review the impact of the potential defect described above on the Safety Related system and schedule replacement of any devices marked with C-H on the base of the switch with switches that do not bear the C-H marking, at the earliest convenience.
