Conduct of Operations

Cold Weather

Pre arations

Ins ection Sco

e

71714

The inspector

reviewed the licensee's

program and procedures

which

address

cold weather preparations.

These preparations

were taken to

ensure protection of safety-related

systems,

component

and structures

(SSC) against cold weather

and possible freezing.

Observations

and Findin s

The licensee

implements

an off-normal operating procedure

(ONOP) prior

to forecasted

or actual cold weather.

Procedure

O-ONOP-103.2,

Cold

Weather

Conditions.

Revision 4/25/96,

would be implemented for any one

of the following.three

symptoms:

1)

auxiliary building temperature

<65'F, or

2)

actual outside air temperature

<39'F,

or

3)

outside air temperature

predicted to be <32'F.

The

ONOP provided protection for the outside refueling water storage

tank

(RWST) which has

a minimum temperature limit of 39'F per technical specifications (TS) 3.5.4.

for the boric acid storage tank

(BAST) room

which has

minimum temperature limit of 55'F per TS 4. 1.2.4;

and, for the

protection of other station equipment which could be affected

by

freezing.

Space heaters

were used for BAST room and charging

pump room

heating.

The

ONOP also provided specific actions

and other monitoring

requirements.

2

The inspector

reviewed the

ONOP and the Updated Final Safety Analysis

Report

(UFSAR) and discussed

cold weather preparations

with operators

and maintenance

personnel.

Although the licensee

does not perform a

pre-seasonal

checklist,

experience

in South Florida demonstrated

that it

is rare for the Turkey Point site to experience

very cold temperatures

(e.g.,

<32'F).

On rare occasions

when the temperature

has

been <32'F,

the duration has

been very short.

Conclusions

The inspector concluded that the licensee

has appropriate

procedural

controls to address

the protection of safety-related

SSCs against cold

weather

and possible freezing.

Unit 4 Residual

Heat

Removal

RHR

Alternate Dischar

e

71707

During the morning control

room tour

on November

26.

1996, the inspector

noted that the Unit 4B RHR alternate

discharge

motor operated

valve

(MOV) 4-863B was out-of-service

(OOS)

on

a planneC

='ea,"ance.

The

clearance

had been executed

at 2:43 a.m. for 18C to calibrate the low

pressure

control

(PC) inter lock (PC-600).

Operators

had considered this

valve as risk significant per procedure

O-ADM-210, On-Line

Maintenance/Work Coordination,

and had therefore placed the

OOS valve on

the hot-items-list for the Plan-Of-The-Day

(POD).

Further.

the

appropriate

OOS log entry was

made.

The work was scheduled for the

upcoming day shift (e.g., for 8 hours9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br /> duration).

The inspector questioned

why the Technical Specification

(TS) Action

Statement

(TSAS) 3.5.2.a

was not entered

(72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br />).

TS 3.5.2 required

Residual

Heat

Removal

(RHR) and safety injection (HHSI) pumps.

flow

paths for cold leg injection. suction flow path from the refueling water

storage tank

(RWST).

and flowpaths from the containment

sump.

The TS

did not specifically address

the use of the MOV-863 valves which are

needed for cold or hot leg recirculation.

Emergency operating

procedures

(EOPs) directed the,use of these

MOVS to provide

RHR

discharge to the HHSI pumps ("piggy-back" mode)

when cold or hot leg

recirculation would be required.

TS 4.5.2.a

required

MOVs 863 A and

B

to be closed, with power removed.

The clearance in effect basically had

the

same

OOS condition as the normal

TS surveillance

requirement.

In

addition, the inspector

reviewed standard

TSs and noted that they also

.

did not address

these

RHR valves.

The inspectors'uestions

prompted the licensee to re-evaluate this work

and the TSAS requirements.

In addition,

CR No. 96-1488 was initiated.

Based

on the

CR generation

and on this discussion,

the valve

(MOV-4-863B) was returned to its normal condition (e.g.,

clearance

removed,

MOV closed with breaker

open) at ll:15 a.m.

lee MOV-4-863B was

OOS per i:he clearance for about 8.5 hours5.787037e-5 days <br />0.00139 hours <br />8.267196e-6 weeks <br />1.9025e-6 months <br />.

Thus,

no TSAS violation

occurred.

The licensee

reviewed their interpretation of the TS, in

light of the importance of these

RHR alternate

discharge

valves.

Corrective actions

as

documented

on the

CR included initiation of a

special

instruction (96-024)

and associated

re-training,

development of

a

TS position statement,

and plans to pursue

a TS change.

01.3

02

02.1

In conclusion.

the inspector considered this to be

a weakness

in the

licensee's

implementation

and control of TS equipment.

Although the

TS

did not specifically address

these

RHR alternate

discharge

valves (other

than

a surveillance requirement),

operators

should have considered

a

TSAS entry.

No violation was identified due to the non-specificity of

the TS,

due to the short time involved (8.5 hours5.787037e-5 days <br />0.00139 hours <br />8.267196e-6 weeks <br />1.9025e-6 months <br />).

due to the fact that

the

HOV was tracked

on the

POD hot-item-list and

OOS list, and due to

prompt response

by the licensee,

including corrective actions.

Control

Room Emer enc

Ventilation Actuation

71707

On December

6,

1996, during

a changeout of an indication bulb on the

control

room emergency ventilation system

(CREVS) control module, the

control

room emergency ventilation system actuated.

This inadvertent

actuation

placed the

CREVS in recirculation.

Haintenance

Instrumentation

and Control

(I&C) personnel

performed troubleshooting;

however,

the cause of the actuation could not be determined.

The

CREVS

module was replaced.

and additional troubleshooting

was performed

on the

module with no success.

The licensee

concluded that the module

replacement

had repaired this spurious

CREVS actuation.

All components

functioned

as required during the inadvertent actuation.

The inspector confirmed that the actuation

was not reportable to the

NRC.

Further, the inspector concluded that operator

response to the

actuation

was appropriate.

71707

The inspectors

per formed

a walkdown to verify the status of the Unit 3

and Unit 4 AFW systems.

b.

Observations

and Findin s

AFW is

a shared

system with three turbine driven

AFW pumps.

Pump A

supplies train

1 on both units,

and

pumps

B and

C supply train 2 on both

units.

The walkdown was accomplished

by performing

a complete

inspection of all accessible

equipment.

The following criteria were

used,

as appropriate,

during this inspection:

system lineup procedures

matched plant drawings

and as-built

configuration;

appropriate

levels of housekeeping

cleanliness

were being

maintained:

valves in the system were correctly installed

and did not exhibit

signs of gross

packing leakage,

bent stems,

missing handwheels,

or

improper labeling;

hangers

and supports

were made

up properly and aligned correctly;

valves in the flow paths were in correct configuration;

local

and remote portion indication was compared,

and

remote

instrumentation

was functional;

major system

components

were properly labeled;

pneumatic support

systems

(IA and nitrogen) were aligned;

surveillance testing procedures

and activities were appropriate;

and

maintenance activities (past.

current.

and planned)

were

appropriate.

Conclusions

The inspectors

concluded that the Unit 3 and Unit 4 AFW systems

were

appropria:ely aligned for standby operation.

Observed

and reviewed

surveillance tests

were satisfactory.

System engineering

involvement

was very good.

However, the inspector noted

some external

piping

corrosion.

(The

AFW systems

are outside

and subject to a salt-air

environment).

Open plant work orders

(PWOs)

had identified some of the

conditions.

The inspector

discussed this issue with plant and systems

engineering

management.

The inspector

was assured that system

functionality was not affected

based

on

UT measurements.

This was

documented

per condition report 96-1525.

Further,

management

stated

that the external corrosion did not affect all piping,

and that current

coatings

program should address

the issue.

Unit 3 and 4 Emer enc

Containment Filter

ECF

Walkdowns

71707

The inspector

walked down the accessible

portions of the

ECF systems.

The

ECF systems

provide post-accident

radioactive iodine cleanup to

ensure that

10 CFR 100 dose limits are met.

Three

50K capacity

ECF

trains are provided for each unit.

The A and

B units are powered from

the respective vital power supplies,

and the

C units are powered from a

swing vital power supply.

This alignment achieves single failure

criteria.

The

ECFs include

a demister to remove moisture.

charcoal

and

high efficiency particulate filters. and

a spray system to protect the

charcoal

from high temperatures

caused

by iodine decay heat.

The inspector

reviewed drawing 613(4)-H3056,

and

surveillance test procedures,

UFSAR section 6.3,

and other

r elated documentation.

During

the walkdown. the inspector

noted that the 4A ECF was under clearance

No. 4-96-10-097A.

This only affected the 4A ECF charcoal

spray solenoid

valve (SV) SV-4-2906.

The redundant

valve (SV-4-2905)

was not affected.

In addition,

CR 96-1102

had addressed

this issue

when SV-4-2906

malfunctioned during testing in September

1996.

The

CR disposition

was

to repair the failed SV-4-2906 flow switch during an outage of

sufficient duration.

Further, the

CR concluded that the 4A ECF remained

operable

based

on availability of the redundant

charcoal

spray

SV.

The

04.1

06

06.1

TS,

UFSAR,

and

DBD do not require redundant

SVs to support the

ECF

operability.

The inspector concluded that the Unit 3 and Unit 4 ECFs were

appropriately aligned for standby operation.

Operator

Knowledge and Performance

Control

Room Peer

Checks

During the inspection period, operations instituted

a new program

entitled "Control

Room Peer

Check".

This program supplements

the

Stop-Think-Act-Review

(STAR) or self-checking process.

The peer check

is the independent

concurrence that

a control

room operator is taking

appropriate action by another

person of equal or higher qualification.

Prior to control

room switch manipulation,

the

RCO is now required to

have another

RCO or SRO

(NWE. ANPS, or NPS) verify and verbally

acknowledge that the correct switch is being manipulated.

Although this program was being considered

by operations

management

for

early 1997,

an event that occurred during the period December

20-22.

1996 'rompted the peer check to be accelerated.

Chemistry personnel

noted

a slight increase in Unit 3 Dose Equivalent Iodine (DEI) on

December

22,

1996, during the midshift.

The DEI value went from 2E-3

uCi/ml to 3E-3,

and then to 4E-3.

Operations

was alerted to this

increase

in DEI, and the Unit 3

RCO found the

VCT divert valve

(TCV-3-143) in the divert position in lieu of the demineralizer position

at about 4:30 a.m on December

22,

1996.

The valve had apparently

been

repositioned during the peakshift

on December

20.

1996,

as required by

an

OP which temporarily aligned

a primary demineralizer

.

The valve was

not repositioned at that time, resulting in letdown flow being diverted

around the demineralizers.

Thus for four shifts, the Unit 3 letdown

flow was not being purified, causing

an increase

in DEI.

The licensee

instituted

CR 96-1616.

Corrective actions

included this above mentioned

peer check,

independent verification procedure

change,

discipline,

and

enhanced training for periodic

RCO control board walkdowns.

The inspector

reviewed the specific event,

the peer check program,

and

discussed

them with operations

management.

The inspector

noted that

four operating shifts had

an opportunity to note that the .TCV was

ositioned in VCT divert.

(No alarm was associated

with the position).

he inspector

concluded that chemistry was proactive in noting

a small

DEI increase.

However, operations

related weaknesses

relative to

procedure

implementation

and control

room panel

walkdowns were noted.

Operations Organization

and Administration

0 erations Staffin

71707

The inspector

reviewed the licensee's

staffing plan for the Turkey Point

operations

department.

Planned

inter-company transfers to St. Lucie and

announced

resignations will result in a loss of five operators

including

four

RCOs

and one non-licensed

operator

(NLO).

This should occur in

early 1997.

The licensee

had the following operations staffing (less

the forecasted

losses)

as of the close of the inspection period:

were assigned to training, five operators

(four licensed)

were

assigned

as outage coordinators,

five operators

(two licensed)

were

assigned

to operations

support, six RCOs were in license

upgrade

training,

24 NLOs were in training programs,

and two NLOs were assigned

to safety

and radwaste.

Plans

were to start

a licensed operator

(RCO)

class for 12

NLO individuals early in 1997.

The inspector

reviewed historical attrition in the operations

department,

and current plans to address

predicted

and known losses.

Based

on this review, the inspector

concluded that the licensee

had

adequate staffing for the present.

and had plans to address

operator

replacement

and pipeline requirements.

Further, the inspector concluded

that licensee

management

appeared

proactive in their staffing plans.

92700

On December

5,

1996, the Unit 3 Assistant Nuclear Plant Supervisor

(ANPS) discovered

a missed surveillance

problem on Unit 3.

Technical Specification (TS) 4.6.1.5 required

a 24-hour surveillance to

periodically check primary containment

average air temperature.

TS 3.6. 1.5 required that the primary containment

average air temperature

not exceed

125 F.

Procedure

3-OSP-201. 1,

RCO Daily Logs,

documented

this required surveillance

every 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br />.

Further, the

OSP required

that the primary containment air temperature

at the 58 foot elevation at

0', 120',

and 240'zimuth locations

be arithmetically averaged.

Observation

and Findin s

The requirements for this

TS surveillance

were usually met through the

Emergency

Response

Data Acquisition and Display System

(ERDADS)

receiving input from three temperature

elements

(TEs).

TE-6700,

6701,

and 6702 were located at the appropriate

azimuths in the containment.

The

ERDADS calculated the average

temperature of the three

TE inputs.

This average

temperature

was monitored and recorded

by the control

room

operator

(RCO) during performance of operation surveillance

procedure

3-OSP-201. 1 and

RCO Daily Logs.

However

. in June

1996,

one of the three

TE inputs to the

ERDADS became inoperable.

Consequently,

redundant

TEs

(1497,

1498.

and 1499) were utilized in lieu of ERDADS.

TEs 1497,

1498,

and 1499, were located in close proximately (similar azimuth) to the

ERDADs TEs,

and provided input to a chart recorder

(R-1413) in the

control

room.

Further, the containment

temperature

monitoring portion

of ERDADS was declared

OOS,

and was appropriately tracked in the TS

equipment

OOS log book.

On December

3,

1996, chart recorder

R-1413 failed,

and

TE 1497,

1498.

and

1499 were declared

OOS.

The Unit 3 ANPS at this time directed the

RCO to use the

ERDADS TEs to meet the requirements

of TS 4.6.1.5.

However, the

ANPS did not recognize that the

ERDADS containment

remperature

average

was no longer valid as it only received input from

two of the three required TEs.

The

RCO utilized the invalid ERDADS

average

through

December

5,

1995.

On December

5,

1996, another

ANPS

questioned

the validity of the

RCO using the

ERDADS containment

temperature

monitoring capability.

Condition report 96-1536 was

initiated.

and the

OOS chart recorder

was repaired

on an urgent basis.

Future

TS 4.6. 1.5 surveillances

were then performed using the chart

recorder three

TE inputs.

As corrective actions the licensee

completed

an independent

review of

the circumstances

surrounding this missed surveillance.

Further, the

licensee

ensured that other similar TS surveillances

using

ERDADs inputs

were being performed.

During the follow-up of the event, the licensee

noted that the chart recorder

was not logged in the TS equipment

OOS

book.

Further, the chart recorder

was not in a routine calibration

program.

The licensee

discussed

these

issues

in Licensee

(LER) 96-12.

Co'- -1 us i on

Based

on licensee identification of this issue,

and on thorough

and

prompt corrective actions, this missed

TS 4.6. 1.5 surveillance

was

classified

as

a non-cited violation (NCV).

This is consistent with

section VII.B.1 of the

NRC Enforcement Policy.

During the period of November

29-30.

1996, the licensee

removed

each

unit's startup transformer

(one at

a time) to clean accumulated salt

spray from a previous high wind storm.

TSs 3.8. 1. l.a and 4.8.1.1.1.a

were appropriately

adhered to and the

OOS time was minimized.

No other

risk significant safety equipment were 00S concurrently.

The inspector verified and reviewed licensee actions,

TS compliance,

and

risk related decisions.

The inspector

questioned

the post maintenance

testing

(PHT).

The

PMT verified that the breakers

associated

with the

vital buses

were racked-in

and available.

and that the startup

transformers

were appropriately aligned in the switchyard.

However, the

PHT did not test the breakers'losure

capability.

The licensee stated

that it was their

normal practice not to test the closure function of

the startup transformer

breakers

at full power as this would be

risk-related.

Normally, these breakers

are closed (tested)

during the

unit shutdown.

Further,

procedure

only required breaker testing (including closure) if actual

breaker

maintenance

had been performed.

No breaker

and maintenance

required

by TSs 3.6.1.6.

4.6.1.6.1,

and 4.6.1.6.2.

The surveillance

was performed

on both units,

and was the 25th year test from the date of the structural integrity

energized.

No TSASs related to unit shutdown were required.

The TS

surveillance for SI logic testing

was within the required surveillance

testing interval.

Subsequently,

on December

27,

1996, the licensee initiated

a plan to

repair the test switch.

The licensee

reviewed all applicable

TSASs.

Action 22 of TS Table 3.3-2 was the most limiting and required the unit

to be in hot standby in six hours.

The 4B train of SI logic was

de-energized

and repairs

commenced.

The licensee

considered this

The 4B SI logic train was successfully

returned to service,

and all

TSASs were exited.

The licensee

concluded that switch failure was due

to aging and possible misoperation.

The switch has both

62707

During a routine observation of a surveillance associated

with Nuclear

Instrumentation

(NI), the inspector observed

buildup of dust

and lint

within the NI drawers located in the control

room.

The inspector

discussed

the issue with the

18C supervisor

who stated that the NI

cabinets

were vacuumed every outage.

The inspector questioned

the

effectiveness

of the vacuuming,

and discussed

the issue with the plant

manager.

The plant manager

agreed to look into enhancing the vacuuming

process to ensure its effectiveness.

Dust and lint buildup in cabinets

pose potential fire hazards

and could affect the electrical

hardware

within the cabinets.

The inspector concluded that poor housekeeping

in the NI cabinets

was

a

negative observation.

The inspector

plans to monitor this issue during

future inspections.

and verified that

these corrective actions

were continuing.

Additional corrective actions

included directing the screen

wash discharge to the canal

discharge

and

not to a weir pit located within the intake structure.

Further,

enhanced

preventive maintenance activities for the screen

and the screen

Based

on the above activities. the licensee believes that the severity

of grass intrusion events of the past two years

should be eased.

The

inspector intends to continue to monitor these activities. including

cooling canal/screen

The inspector concluded that the

licensee

was appropriately addressing

these

issues.

Unit 4 Containment Isolation Valves

37551

and 40500

During the period, Unit 4 containment

instrument air (IA) bleed valve

CV-4-2826 was identified as inoperable

due to a

DC ground.

Operations

appropriately

implemented

TSAS 3.6.4 and 3.6.1. 1 which required the

redundant

valve (CV-4-2819) to be isolated

and deactivated.

Maintenance

and engineering troubleshooting activities identified a grounded wire

running from the auxiliary building to a terminal

box (TB) on the roof.

Maintenance

was unable to pull

a new cable. therefore engineering

evaluated

other options for repair.

The licensee

concluded that the appropriate repair was to splice the

cable with a ray-chem splice kit, and to remove the cable run to the TB.

Prior to initiating repairs,

engineering

performed

a detailed safety

evaluation

(PTN-ENG-SEES-96-081)

per

10 CFR 50.59 requirements.

Further,

the licensee

implemented

a temporary system alteration

(TSA) to

document

and control the wiring modifications.

TSA 4-96-003-16

was

implemented

on December

13,

1996.

The inspector

reviewed the above referenced

documents,

the TS and

UFSAR

requirements.

The repair activities were discussed

with operations,

and engineenng

personnel.

The inspector

also witnessed

portions of the field activities.

The inspector

monitored Unit 4

and the associated

buildup with the IA bleeds

unavailable.

TS 3.6. 1.4 limits containment

pressure to <3.0 psig.

The

inspector

independently verified that pressure

did not exceed

2.0 psig.

Once the TSA was implemented

and the valves were retested.

containment

pressure

began

a slow decrease

towards its normal valve of slightly

positive (e.g.,

about 0.1 to 0.4 psig).

The inspector

concluded that

On December

13,

1996, the inspector

became

aware of a

10 CFR 21 issue

regarding deficient

GE HGA relays manufactured

between

January

1989 and

June

1991.

A vendor (Farwell

8 Hendricks)

from Cincinnati,

OH,

made

a

report to the

NRC on this issue.

FPL had previously been

informed by GE

of this problem associated

with possible relay armature binding due to a

vendor fabrication defect.

Turkey Point had received

31 of these

suspect

relays in 1989.

The licensee

received this information on

November 8,

1996,

per

GE letter SC96-06,

Supplement

1.

The licensee

immediately initiated condition report 96-1465 when they received the

GE

letter

.

The licensee's

review and analysis

concluded that of the 31 suspect

relays purchased,

eight were in use in Unit 4,

and six were in use in

Unit 3.

The remaining

17 relays

had been either destroyed

during the

1992 Hurricane Andrew or were tagged

as not to be used.

Of the 14

relays in use in the plants,

the relay function was limited to alarm

annunciation only for the under voltage

(UV) load center

monitors.

The

UV trip functions were accomplished

by a different type relay.

Thus,

the suspect

GE

HGA relays would not cause

a load center functional

failure.

The licensee

concluded that there were no operability

concerns.

Corrective actions

scheduled for the upcoming

1997 refueling

outages

included inspection

and checks

for the

14 installed relays.

The inspector

reviewed the

CR,

10 CFR 21 report,

and other related

documentation

including electrical

schematics,

wiring diagrams,

and

relay schemes.

The inspector also independently

confirmed that the

13

suspect

relays were not part of the load center'". tripping scheme.

The

inspector concluded that the licensee's

At about 2:30 p.m.

on December

17.

1996,

The "B" WNT overflowed several

thousand gallons of slightly radioactive water into the berm surrounding

the tanks.

A small

amount of water

(several

hundred gallons)

leaked

through wall piping penetrations

onto the floor of the radwaste

building.

HP personnel

responded to the spill, and notified operations

who then stopped the running

WNT pump.

HP personnel

contained

and

cleaned

up the spill.

Contamination

and swipe surveys in the radwaste

building did not detect

any contamination greater

tha", the limit of 1000

dpm.

No WNT spilled water left the radwaste building.

Observations

and Findin s

The licensee's

investigation

(per Condition Report 96-1595)

concluded

that the "C" WNT was being recirculated

per section 5. 1 of procedure

0-

OP-061. 12, Waste Disposal

System

- WNTs and Demineralizer Operation.

Apparently, water either leaked through the isolation valves or a valve

was out-of-position resulting in water filling a standby tank ("B" WNT).

The "8" WMT eventually overflowed into the berm area.

Interviews of

operators

and

HP personnel,

and

a re-creation of the

WMT recirculation

alignment could not determine the absolute

cause of the observed

scenario.

However, operations

management

noted that the non-licensed

operator

(NLO) performing the operation in the radwaste building did not

obtain the required independent verification (IV) of the valve alignment

as required

by the

OP attachment.

If a valve were mispositioned,

the IV

should have noted this anomaly.

License corrective actions included the following:

Spill cleanup. with no spread of contamination,

WNT water and berm water processing,

CR completion

and review by senior plant management,

NLO disciplinary action,

OP procedure

enhancements.

including requiring

NLOs to remain in

the radwaste building during water transfers,

and

Training and briefing of all operators of the event.

The inspector

reviewed the event. the

the inspector verified that

site minimum staffing was appropriate.

Security force staffing of

facilities,

as well as operations

and maintenance staffing required by

the Emergency

The inspector witnessed

two fire tests

performed for the licensee at

Omega Point Laboratories,

Inc. in San Antonio, Texas.

These tests

were

performed

on Thermo-Lag electrical

raceway fire barriers representative

of the fire barriers currently installed

on raceways at Turkey Point or

modifications being considered to upgrade the existing Thermo-Lag

raceway fire barriers.

The purpose of these tests

was to provide

documented

evidence that the fire barrier systems

would satisfactorily

withstand

an American Society for Testing

and Haterials

(ASTH) E-119.

Fire Test of Building Haterials, fire exposure for a period of one or

three hours followed by a hose stream test

and that the fire barriers

met the criteria of NRC Generic Letter 86-10,

Supplement

1.

Observations

and Findin s

The two tests

were performed in an appropriate test furnace.

The test

facility was well staffed

and operated.

Good test procedures

and

practices

were followed.

The first test was

a one hour fire test

and involved five conduits.

Four of these conduits were each enclosed in a fire barrier utilizing

nominal 5/8-inch thickness

Thermo-Lag 330-1 material.

The Thermo-Lag

joints were sealed with 3H Fire

Dam 150 caulk.

All four of these fire

barriers failed within approximately

29 to 49 minutes.

These failures

were apparently

due to the inability of the

3H caulk to prevent

significant heat penetr ation into the fire barrier

systems.

Heat

'enetrated

these fire barriers

and temperature

on the raceway surface

increased

above the permitted value of 325 degrees

F above the initial

temperature

in one hour.

In addition, the structural integrity of these

barriers

was not intact following the hose stream test performed

as soon

as the test assembly

was

removed from the furnace.

The conduit beneath

each fire barriers

was visible in a number of locations.

The fifth conduit of the first test consisted of a nominal 5/8-inch

thickness of 330-1 Thermo-Lag material with the joints caulked with the

3H Fire Dam material.

The base coat was covered with an additional

V.

18

3/8-inch layer of Thermo-Lag.

This fire barrier system failed after

approximately

52 minutes of fire exposure.

However, the structural

integrity of this barrier was maintained throughout the one hour fire

test

and subsequent

hose stream test.

These five fire barriers during the first test did not meet the test

acceptance criteria.

The second fire test

was

a three hour fire severity test followed by a

hose stream test for five electrical

raceways.

The purpose of this test

was to verify the adequacy of several

three hour fire barrier designs.

The tested

raceway fire barriers for four fire barriers involved designs

which had previously passed

similar tests.

The test for these four

barriers

demonstrated

that these barriers

designs

would pass

a

three-hour fire endurance.

The fifth raceway involved the installation

of two layers of 770-1 Thermo-Lag material that is normally installed

on

the exterior of a 330-1 Thermo-Lag base material.

This design failed to

pass the three hour test.

The fifth barrier failed after approximately

two hours

and

12 minutes.

Conclusions

Fire endurance testing of the licensee's fire barrier

system designs

was

performed using good test procedures

which met the

NRC criteria.

The

testing facility was adequate

and was well staffed

and operated.

However, the barriers tested

for one hour fire endurance

and one of the

fire barrier

assemblies

tested for three hours failed the tests.

These

barriers did not meet the fire barrier

requirements

of 10 CFR 50

Appendix R.
