including

Addendum 5 dated October 5, 1979.

Discrepancies

were noted in two Quality Assurance

Inspection

Reports

concerning the emergency diesel'enerators.

Although the diesels

were receipt inspected

on the

same day, using the

same revision of

the inspection plan, different inspection attributes

were assigned

by the two inspectors.

Also, the QAIR for 2EGS"EG3 (Division II)

indicated that the Electrical Insulation Test was not applicable,

although

a receipt megger

was required

by site procedures.

The QAIR

for 2EGS*EGI (Division I) indicated that the insulation test results

were satisfactory.

The gAIP requires that the inspector witness the

resistance

testing.

Mhen questioned

by the inspector,

the licensee

cou1d not explain the reason or cause of the discrepancy,

excepttttat

during this time period a contractor

had been conducting all megger

tests,

and may not have had

a

gC witness.

The licensee

searched

the

equipment megger records

and produced

documentation of megger tests

performed

on March 5, 1981 for 2EGS*EG1 and April 27,

1981 for

2EGS*EG3.

Both initial megger tests

were completed satisfactorily,

and subsequent

tests

also have been satisfactory

and periodically

witnessed. by gC.

Upon review of further documentation,

the inspector

verified that the minimum inspection attributes

had been

completed.

The inspector

had no further questions.

I

The receipt megger test sheets

reviewed for

2EGS~EGl indicated that

the megger test that was required. one week after the space

heaters

were energized

was conducted

on March 12, 1981.

The same data sheet

and other related

documents

indicate that the heaters

were not

energized until March 13, 1981.

When questioned

by the inspector,

the licensee

could not determine the reason for this apparent failure

to follow procedures.

Prior to the conclusion of the inspection,

the

licensee

issued

a Nonconformance

and Disposition Report

No. 4783,

on

May 24, 1983, which identified this deficiency as

a nonconformance.

The periodic megger checks

performed after the space

heaters

were

energized

were satisfactory.

'his

item is unresolved

pending review of the licensees

corrective

action (50-410/83-06-01).

The receipt documentation for the diesel

generators

indicate that

the /AIR's are still open due to incomplete documentation.

Engineer-

ing and Design Coordination Report

(EEDCR) No. P40310

was issued

on

January 5, 1981 in order to get permission to ship the diesel

gener-

ators from the contractor without all of the seismic tests

and

equipment qualification reports

approved.

The specification,

NMP2-

E031A,- requires that the shop inspector verify that all seismic tests

or calculation reports

and equipment qualification reports

are

approved

by the engineers

before the equipment is released

for

shipment.

The waiver of this requirement

was approved

under

the

condition that the final approval of the reports would be verified by

Field guality Control

(FqC) at the time of pre-installation inspec-

tion utilizing field inspection plan N2-E061A-097.

(See Section 3.3

concerning qualification Testing)

(CES) to conduct

an onsite equipment inspection for the

diesel generators.

'Purchase

Order NMP2-FPO-13850

requested

the

initial inspection.

On January

6, 1982,

as

documented

by a

CES

Service Representative's

Report,

an inspection of the diesel

was

'onducted.

The representative

noted seven deficiencies

on the two

diesels.

These were brought to the attention of the licensee

by a

written report,

and also licensee

representatives

accompanied

the

service representatives.

Nonconformance

and Disposition Report (N88)

No. 4104 was issued

on December 7,

1982 to identify three of the

seven items.

Two other items were documented

on

MRR 81"2571.

The

remaining two items were not documented.

When questioned

by the

inspector,

the licensee stated that these

two items, both concerning

oil. leaks,

would be corrected

by the vendor

upon installation.

Documentation could not be provided to indicate

how these

items were

to be tracked to ensure they were corrected.

gAP Section

15 states

that nonconforming

and unsatisfactory

items shall

be controlled to

prevent their inadvertent

use or installation.

While physical

segregation

and marking are preferred,

other means of identification

(e.g.

marking, tagging, etc.) are acceptable

when physical

segrega-

tion is impracticable.

The diesel

generators

were neither segregated

nor:identified as nonconforming in reference to

N&D No. 4104.

Prior

to the completion of the inspection,

on Hay 24, l983, the licensee

initiated NM No. 4783 which identified the two remaining items from

the diesel

inspection

as unresolved.

The licensee

informed the

inspector that the

N&D tags were hung on the diesel

generators prior

,to the conclusion of the inspection.

The inspector

had

no further questions.

Engineering

and Design Coordination Report No. P40,310.

The Nine Mile Point Unit 2 Final Safety Analysis Report 'states that

the qualification tests for the standby diesel

generators will be

completed in accordance

with Regulatory Guide 1.9,

IEEE Standard

387-1977

and

IEEE 323-1974.

The inspector

reviewed the licensee

commitments,

the equipment specifications,

and the documentation for

the tests

already completed to ascertain

the status of the qualification

tests

and verify conformance to the licensee

commitments.

Various tests

required by IEEE 387-1977 are not specified in the

equipment specification

and have not been completed or planned.

For

example,

the load capability qualification test specified in Section

6.3.1 of IEEE 387-1977,

and clarified by Regulatory Guide 1.108,

requires that the diesel

generators

run for 22 hours2.546296e-4 days <br />0.00611 hours <br />3.637566e-5 weeks <br />8.371e-6 months <br /> at the continuous

rating,

and two hours at the short time rating;

The design specification

requires

a test at 115K of plant design

emergency

load for one hour.

The actual

shop acceptance

test

was conducted at rated continuous

load for four hours

and 110K of continuous

load (4840kw) for two

hours.

4.0

Emer

Various tests

are inconsistent with the testing requirements.

For

example,

the start and load acceptance

qualification tests

described

in IEEE 387-1977 Section

6. 3.2 require that immediately after the

diesel

generator

reaches

rated frequency

and voltage

a single step

load equal to or greater than

50K of continuous

load is to be applied.

(Approximately 2200

kw)

The design specification requires that 50K

of the continuous

load rating be applied

30 seconds after rated

voltage and frequency are achieved.

The shop acceptance

test consisted

of applying 2000

kw after frequency

and voltage

had stabilized for

some time.

Another test applied

a 2000

HP motor while the diesel

was

accelerating.

No equivalent test

has

been

completed.

The start and load acceptance

qualification tests consisting of

approximately

300 valid start

and loading tests specified in the

IEEE 387-1977

and the design specification

have not been completed,

as

recommended

by IEEE 387-1977 Section 6.3, at the engine manufacturers,

nor have they been scheduled.

The discrepancies

noted above indicate that the licensee

should

evaluate whether the current schedule

and test plan .will ensure that

the required qualification tests

are completed

on the diesel

generators.

This item is unresolved

(50-410/83-06-02)

pending further evaluation

of qualification test data.

SPEC drawing 24-9.4B.

SPEC drawing 7241001001E.

The Final Safety Analysis Report was compared to licensee

and contractor

drawings to determine if the licensee

commitments

corresponded

to the

actual

design

and installation.

The two sections

reviewed in the

FSAR which describe the load sequencing

logic, Sections

7.3 and 8.3, are inconsistent with each other.

The two

sections

specify different load sequencing

times for the

ECCS systems

and

also different sequences

for the applicable

pumps.

For example,

Section

7.3 of the

FSAR states that with a simultaneous

Loss of Coolant Accident

(LOCA) and Loss of Offsite Power

(LOOP) LPCI pumps

A and

B will start

after a 5 second time delay and

LPCI pump

C and the

LPCS pump start

immediately, yet section 8.3 has

LPCI pumps

A and

8 starting at 1 second,

and the

LPCI

C and

LPCS pumps at six seconds.

The logic diagrams in the

FSAR were equally inconsistent.

After a review of the

SWEC drawings

and

GE drawings it was determined that Section 7.3 was.written by GE, therefore,

their design was reflected,

and Section 8.3 was written by SWEC using

their logic.

The discrepancies

were not noted in the

FSAR document review

(See Section 5.0).

In GE letter NMP2-2668, dated April 19., 1979, the-

Notes of Conference for an April 10-13,

1979 meeting,

QN requested that

the pump sequencing

and time delays

be chan'ged to their design.

On March

14,

1983

SWEC again requested

GE, by letter 9M2-13,854, to verify if the

sequencing

was acceptable to GE's design.

The licensee provided the

inspector

a copy of GE. Dwg. 807E170TY Revision 8 on May 26,

1983 that

incorporated these

changes.

The licensee

also stated

Chat the accident

analysis

was completed using the numbers specified by GE.

The exact time

delays

used in the analysis

could not be determined

from the

FSAR since

only a maximum total time for injection flow was given.

Calculation

EC-32,

Emergency Diesel Generator

Loading Calcu1ation

was

reviewed by the inspector

and it was found to be inconsistent with the

numbers specified by the. FSAR.

The calculations,

used to verify the

diesel

generator sizing,

used

numbers that'ere

on the average

1QX lower

than the

FSAR.

The

SWEC engineer responsible for the ca1culation stated

that the

FSAR numbers

were incorrect and a change would be submitted.

The inspector

informed the

NRC Project manager

by letter of the observed

FSAR discrepancies.

The,FSAR is currently under review by the
