4.16 INSERVICE INSPECTION OF STEAM GENERATOR TUBING APPLICABILITY:
Applies to the inservice inspection and sampling selection for steam generator tubing.
OBJECTIVE:
To monitor the integrity of the steam generator tube primary boundary and provide guidance for corrective action when imperfections are observed.
SPECIFICATION:
A. GENERAL STEAM GENERATOR TUBE SELECTION The steam generators shall be inspected when shutdown by selecting steam generator tubes on the following basis:
- 1. Tubes for the inspection shall be selected on a random basis except where experience at San Onofre Unit 1 or experience in similar plants indicates critical areas to be inspected.
- 2. Each inspection shall include at least 3 percent of the total number of tubes in each steam generator to be inspected.
- 3.
Inservice inspections may be limited to one steam generator on a rotating schedule encompassing 3 percent of the total tubes of steam generators in the plant if the results of previous inspections indicate that all steam generators are performing in a like manner.
- 4.
Every inspection shall include all non-plugged tubes in the steam generator(s) to be inspected that previously had detected imperfections greater than 20 percent.
B. SUPPLEMENTARY INSPECTIONS If the inspections in Specification A indicate imperfections, additional inspec tions shall be required as follows:
- 1. If any of the tubes inspected pursuant to Specification A.3 are degraded tubes that were not classified as degraded tubes during the previous inspec tions or have previously detected imperfections that have increased more than 10 percent wall penetration since their last inspection, inspect 3 percent of the tubes in one of the uninspected steam generators.
- 2. If more than 10 percent of the tubes inspected in a steam generator are degraded tubes that were not classified as degraded tubes during the pre vious inspections or have previously detected imperfections that have increased more than 10 percent wall penetration since their last inspec tion, or one or more of the tubes inspected have an imperfection in excess of the plugging limit, inspect an additional 3 percent of the tubes in that steam generator, concentrating on tubes in those areas of the tube sheet array where tubes with imperfections were found and on that length of tube where the imperfections were found. In addition, the restof the steam generators shall be inspected in accordance with Specification A.2.
SAN ONOFRE - UNIT 4.16-1 AMENDMENT NO. 133
- 3. If the additional inspection in Specification B.2 indicates that more than 10 percent of the additionally inspected tubes are degraded tubes that were not classified as degraded tubes during the previous inspections or have previously detected imperfections that have increased more than 10 percent wall penetration since their last inspection, or one or more of the additionally inspected tubes have an imperfection in excess of the plugging limit, inspect an additional 6 percent of the tubes in that steam generator in the area of the tubesheet array where tubes with imperfections were found and through that length of tube where the imperfections were found.
C. INSPECTION FREQUENCY The inspections in Specifications A and B above shall be performed at the following frequencies:
- 1.
Inservice inspections shall be not less than 10 nor more than 24 calendar months after the previous inspection.
2..
If two consecutive inspections indicate that less than 10 percent of the total tubes inspected are degraded tubes that were not classified as degraded tubes during the previous inspections or have previously detected imperfections that have increased more than 10 percent wall penetration, the inspections shall be not less than 10 nor more than 40 calendar months after the previous inspection.
- 3. Unscheduled inspections shall be conducted in accordance with Specification A in the event of primary-to-secondary leaks exceeding Specification 3.1.4 a seismic occurrence greater than an operating basis earthquake, a loss-of coolant accident requiring actuation of engineered safeguards, or a major steam line or feedwater line break.
D. ACCEPTANCE CRITERIA
- 1. As used in this specification:
- a. Imperfection means an exception to the dimensions, finish, or contour required by drawing or specification. Detectable eddy current testing indications below 20 percent of the nominal tube wall thickness, may be considered as imperfections.
- b. Degradation means a service-induced cracking, wastage, pitting, wear or general corrosion occurring on either inside or outside of a tube.
- c. Degraded Tube means a tube containing imperfections greater than or equal to 20 percent of the nominal wall thickness caused by degrada tion above the tube roll expansion. Also, a tube with an imperfec tion in the region one-half inch below the uppermost one inch of sound roll, is considered a degraded tube.
- d. Defect means an imperfection of such severity that it exceeds the plugging limit or an imperfection located in the uppermost one inch of the tube roll expansion. A tube or sleeve containing a defect is defective.
SAN ONOFRE -
UNIT 4.16-2 AMENDMENT NO. 133
- e. Plugging Limit means the imperfection depth at or beyond which plugging of the tube must be performed. The plugging limit is equal to or greater than 50 percent of the nominal tube wall thickness, except where sleeves are installed, in which case the plugging limit is equal to or greater than 40 percent of the nominal sleeve wall thickness.
For the tube roll expansion region, the following criteria apply:
(i) Any tube containing an imperfection within the uppermost one inch of sound roll shall be considered defective.
(ii) Any imperfection is acceptable below the uppermost one inch of sound roll.
- f. Tube Roll Expansion means that portion of the tube which has been increased in diameter by a rolling process.
- g. Sound Roll means a tube roll expansion which is fully expanded such that no crevice exists between the outside diameter of the tube and the tubesheet.
- 2.
If, in the inspections performed under Specification A,
- a.
Less than 10 percent of the total tubes inspected are degraded tubes that were not classified as degraded tubes during the previous inspec tions or have previously detected imperfections that have increased more than 10 percent wall penetration, and
- b.
No tube inspected exceeds the plugging limit, plant operation may resume.
- 3. If, in the inspections performed under Specification B,
- a. Less than 10 percent of the total tubes inspected are degraded tubes that were not classified as degraded tubes during the previous inspec tions or have previously detected imperfections that have increased more than 10 percent wall penetration, and
- b.
No more than 3 of the tubes inspected exceed the plugging limit, plant operation may resume after performance of the corrective action in Specification F.
- 4. If, in the inspections performed under Specification B,
- a. More than 10 percent of the tubes inspected are degraded tubes that were not classified as degraded tubes during the previous inspections or have previously detected imperfections that have increased more than 10 percent wall penetration, or
- b. More than 3 of the tubes inspected exceed the plugging limit, SAN ONOFRE - UNIT 4.16-3 AMENDMENT NO. 133
prior to resumption of plant operation, the situation shall be reported in a Special Report to the Commission in accordance with Technical Specification 6.9.2 for approval of the proposed remedial action.
- 5. The results of inspections performed under specifications A or B for all tubes in service which have defects below the uppermost one inch of tube roll expansion shall be reported to the Commission in a Special Report pursuant to Technical Specification 6.9.2 at least seven days prior to the resumption of plant operation. The report shall include:
- a.
Identification of applicable tubes, and
- b.
Location and size of the degradation.
E. CORRECTIVE ACTION All leaking tubes, defective tubes, and tubes with imperfections exceeding the plugging limit shall be repaired or plugged.
BASIS The Surveillance Requirements for inspection of the steam generator tubes ensure that the structural integrity of this portion of the Reactor Coolant System will be maintained. The program for inservice inspection of steam generator tubes is based on Regulatory Guide 1.83, Revision 1. Inservice inspection of steam gen erator tubing is essential in order to maintain surveillance of the conditions of the tubes in the event that there is evidence of degradation due to design, manufacturing errors, or inservice conditions that lead to corrosion. Inservice inspection of steam generator tubing also provides a means of characterizing the nature and cause of any tube degradation so that corrective measures can be taken.
The plant is expected to be operated in a manner such that the secondary coolant will be maintained within those chemistry limits found to result in negligible corrosion of the steam generator tubes. If the secondary coolant chemistry is not maintained within these limits, localized corrosion may likely result in stress corrosion cracking. The extent of cracking during plant operation would be limited by the limitation of steam generator tube leakage between the primary coolant system and the secondary coolant system (primary-to-secondary leakage =
0.3 gallons per minute per steam generator). Cracks having a primary-to secondary leakage less than this limit during operation will have an adequate margin of safety to withstand the loads imposed during normal operation and by postulated accidents. Operating plants have demonstrated that primary-to secondary leakage of 0.3 gpm per steam generator can readily be detected by radiation monitors of steam generator blowdown. Leakage in excess of this limit will require shutdown during which the leaking tubes will be located and plugged and additional inspections performed.
If a defect should develop in service, it will be found during scheduled inservice steam generator tube examinations. Plugging will be required for all tubes with imperfections exceeding the plugging limit of 50 percent of the tube nominal wall thickness, except where sleeves are installed, in which case the plugging limit is 40 percent of the nominal sleeve wall thickness. A plugging limit of 50 percent for tubes and 40 percent for sleeves ensures that defects SAN ONOFRE -
UNIT 4.16-4 AMENDMENT NO. 133
will not occur between inspection intervals. Tubes with defects below the uppermost one inch of a sound roll may remain in service, provided there are no imperfections in this portion of the tube. The distance of one inch includes a 0.25 inch eddy current measurement uncertainty.
The results of tube ID gauging and dent detection conducted in San Onofre Unit 1 steam generators demonstrate that the denting process has been arrested.
Continued assuranceof this condition will be provided by monitoring for dent progression as part of the general steam generator tube inspection in accordance with Specification A. Progression of denting is adequately monitored in either steam generator A or C by reviewing required eddy current probe size reductions during the performance of this inspection scope.
The results of AVB area inspections conducted in San Onofre Unit 1 steam generators demonstrate that AVB modifications installed during the Cycle VI refueling outage were successful in eliminating significant growth of tube wall penetration indications at AVB locations. Continuing assurance of this condition can be provided by performing U-bend inspections as part of the Specification A inspection scope at refueling outage intervals of tubes having wall cenetration indications in excess of 20 percent at AVB locations.
