APPENDIX A NOTICE OF VIOLATION Pacific Gas and Electric Company Diablo Canyon Nuclear Power Plant Docket Nos.
50-275 and 50-323 License Nos.
DPR-80 and DPR-82 As a result of the inspection conducted on December 15-19,
- 1986, and in accordance with NRC Enforcement Policy, 10 CFR Part 2, Appendix C, the following violation was identified:
Paragraph (f) of 10 CFR 50.49 requires qualification of each item of electric equipment important to safety.
Paragraph (k) of 10 CFR 50.49 provides that equipment that the commission has previously required to be qualified to NUREG-0588, "Interim Staff Position on Environmental gualification of Safety-Related Electrical Equipment" need not be requalified.
The licensee agreed during the licensing process to meet category I for certain equipment including the equipment in question.
Paragraph 2.2(5) of NUREG-0588, Category I, requires qualification by test where equipment could be submerged and test and analysis to demonstrate adequacy of watertight enclosures.
6 Paragraph 2.4 of NUREG-0588, Category I, allows qualification by analysis supported by partial test data on critical components of the equipment.
Paragraph 5(l) of NUREG-0588, Category I, requires auditable documentation in which the Eg basis is fully explained and data is pertinent to the application.
Contrary to the above, the qualification documentation for Minco RTDs did not, at the time of the inspection, demonstrate qualification for the post"LOCA submergence conditions to which they could be subjected in that documentation of submergence type testing for the equipment was not included in the Eg file nor was there adequate partial type test data and analysis.
This is a Severity Level IV violation (Supplement I).
