[oa~j With the reactor shutdown for refuelin the 6B2 heater for the SBVS was discovered to be ino erable. For the lant condi.tions existin at the time of discovery the SBVS was not required. However, i.t is not possible 5 to determine the exact time that this failure occurred, and the reactor

~08 ma have been o eratin with the 6B2 heater ino erable. It is im ortant

~DT to note that the other SBVS train was full o erational at all times.

REPORTABLE OCCURRENCE 335-80-14 LICENSEE EVENT REPORT PAGE TWO.

ADDITIONAL EVENT DESCRIPTION AND PROBABLE CONSE UENCES The SBVS 6B2 heater is the 1.5 Kw heater provided for humidity control of'he 300 cfm cooling air flow through the 'A'BVS train when the train is idle. The 30 Kw (6A1) heater which provides humidity control for the 6000 cfm system operating flow was fully operational at all times.

Thus, the engineered safety feature function of the 'A'BVS train was not significantly degraded. Additionally, the 'B'BVS train was

'ully operational at all times.
