  • sheet 2 (Contd) 2.0 Various connectors of the subject penetrations are used in Class lE circuits inside the containment and are listed in Table 2-1 above.

These connector assemblies inside containment.are potted (with the exception of two - see Section 2.4) with Bendix potting compound and use silicon rubber sealing washer or 0-ring (Bendix Part No 10-101378) between receptacle and connector plug.

2.1 ELECTRICAL PENETRATION ASSEMBLIES The electrical penetration assemblies comprise of cylindrical canisters, hermetically sealed at both ends.

The canisters are manufactured from 12" pipes and are either 60" or 75" long, depending upon which penetration area of cont~inment building they are installed.

Recessed back from each end of the. canister is a plate which is machined to receive male pin electrical bulkhead connectors.

The bulkhead connector bodies are steel and are attached to the plate by brazing.

The bulkhead connector pin support and dielectric material is glass.

The pins of the bulkhead connectors on each end of the canister are joined by silicon rubber insulated conductors of the conductor size suitable for the service of each bulkhead corinector.

The conductors are supported by fiber glass discs internally in the canister at 12-inch intervals.

The junctions between the bulkhead connector pins and the insulated conductors were protected by heat shrink tubing to prevent relative movement of the conductors (during assembly) and facilitate initial assembly.

The heat shrink tubing has no role to play during normal or accident conditions and a postulated failure of heat shrink tubing will have no impact on the functional capability or the integrity of the penetration assemblies.

The rear face of the bulkhead connector assemblies were coated with RTV compound to hold the heat shrink tubing in place during initial assembly.

During normal or accident conditions, RTV has no bearing on the functional capability or the integrity of the penetration assemblies.

The mating half of the connectors (removable connectors attached to external cabling inside containment) are potted with Bendix potting compound.

The connectors are sealed at the mating end by an 0-ring (sealing ring) and by a compressible pin insert.

The sealing ring provides an environmental seal at the mating end.

On the removable connectors, the environmental seal is provided by the potting compound, which completely encapsulates the connector cable interface, sealing around the cables and around the. connector shell.

2.2 The qualification information of the subject electrical penetrations is based on the following documents and discussioR:

2.2.1 Document Reference 1 includes a Wyle Laboratories Test Report No 43913-2 dated February 25, 1978 of the actual type testing performed on four potted connector assemblies (typical of the subject penetrations) under simulated LOCA conditions that may occur during a postulated Design Basis Event.

nul080-0014a-43 4

Rev 1, 10/30/80

Sheet 2 (Contd)

The four connectors, two power and two control, are representative of those in use at Palisades Plant, being of the.same design, construction and material.

The connectors and cable were assembled by Wyle Lab personnel to procedures given in the Viking Instruction Manual - T398, Rev A.

The connector assemblies were then potted with Bendix potting compound No 9-4954~1 per Consumers Power Company procedures (Reference 7) which encapsulates the rear of the connector and a portion of the cable*to provide an adequate seal at the cable entry to the connector.

Red silicon rubber sealing washer or 0-rings were substituted for original 0-rings to provide a satisfactory seal between the receptacle and connector plug.

During the type testing, the connector assemblies were subjected to LOCA environment of 295°F, 62.7 psia, 100% relative humidity and chemical sprays at the rate of 0.15 gal/min/ft 2

  • The connector assemblies were kept energized with rated currents and voltages for the 24-hour duration of the LOCA test.

Three of the four connector assemblies tes:ted, s:atisfied the requirements specified.

The fourth connector assembly failed due to a pin to connector shell ground.

The failed connector was a Viking*part No.980-0016-031, three conduct.or, No 12 wire, 480 V ac connector..

An imperfection in the potting, beneath the potting boot, provided a leak path for steam or water to enter the grommet area where a split in the grommet material produced a leak path directly to the pins.

This particular connector utilized a small diameter, relatively long, 3/4" x 10", potting boot, ma~ing it difficult to insure complete filling of the boot.

This situation can be avoided by including the following steps in the application procedure:

a.

Heat the connector and potting boot with a heat lamp while potting to prevent the potting from thickening.

b.

Use a succession of short potting boots rather than one long boot to insure proper filling.

c.

Inspect. the cured potting for flaws and repair if necessary, In actual*practice, it was found that the preheating of the potting boot and connector was sufficient to eliminate the void problem without resorting to short potting boots.

Potting of the rear of the connector and the 0-ring seal between the receptacle and connector plug gave satisfactory performance during the environmental testing.

2.2.2 Document Reference 2 includes a Bendix Engineering Report No 2345 dated September 2, 1977, for Environmental Testing of Nuclear Cable Sample Assembly L-33627-1.

2.2.4 Document Reference.4,includes Viking Industries proposal (Design Type 1239X-100) for the subject electrical penetrations which confirms that wires used inside the canister are insulated with silicon rubber and that the bulkhead connector pin support and the dielectric material is fused glass~

2.2.5 Document Reference 5 lists Viking Industries Inc "Receptacle Assembly Drawings" made for Palisades penetrations.

These drawings indicate that fused glass has been used as bulkhead connector pin support and dielectric material for the subject penetrations.

2.2.6 Document Reference 6 includes a Rockbestos report on qualification of Firewall Type SR Class lE electric cables which are similar to the silicon rubber insulated wires used inside the canisters.

The cable specimens were kept energized with rated voltages and currents for the 30-days' duration of the test.

During post-LOCA mandrel test, the cable specimens successfully withstood 80 V/mil dielectric test.

2.3 DISCUSSIONS 2.3.1 SERVICE CONDITIONS INSIDE CONTAINMENT DURING LOCA - TEMPERATURE AND PRESSURE STEAM CONDITIONS This qualification is described separat~ly for various components of the complete electrical penetration:

nu1080-0014a-43 6

Sheet 2 (Contd)

a.

Connector assembly, which also includes the potting compound of the sealing washer or 0-ring.

Document Reference 3 indicates that the LOCA environment simulated during type testing for 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> envelops the required service conditions (except for peak pressure value of 51 psig) as given in FSAR and Section. II.. D.1.

Peak pressure value achieved during type test was 48 psig:

However, in view of the fact that peak temperature of 295°F was maintained for 300 seconds during LOCA test as against requirement of 278°F for 46 seconds~ it is concluded that marginal difference of 3 psig will have 'no effect on the qualification.

Analysis of containment parameters shows.that following a LOCA, temperature and pressure conditions return to normal in about 10 days.

Therefore, the containment spray is not likely to continue beyond 11 days.

Even though the test duration was limited to 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br />' it is.. concluded that the potting compound is qualifi.ed, based on' the follow:lng~ reasons:

1.

Analys:*is indicates that epoxy compollhds cfo not. react with spr*ay:

chemic~ls. in 1oW; conce~F,;-:~tions.

2..Postulated fail~z:e.s in potting can, o.ccur.. dµe to high temperatures and/or high."pressures~:. Since peak. pressure and.*

temperature was attained during the.initial part* of the test and no failure occurred, it is extremely unlikely that failure.

will occur later under reduced pressure and temperature conditioning.

b.

Canister which includes glass seal and wires*with silicon rubber insulation.

Document References 4, 5 and 6 confirm that glass seal used around bulkhead connector pins and the silicon rubber insulated wires used for. these penetrations have been separately qualified-to envelop the.service conditions as given in FSAR and Section II.D.l.

2.3.2 RADIATION Document References 1, 2 and 3 indicate that the connector assemblies, including potting compound and sealing ring (0-r.ing) have been qualified to 1.1 x 10 8 rad gamma-against the requirement of 2 x 10 7 rad gamma and 2 x 10 8 rad beta at the outer surface.

It is concluded that the Palisades requirements are satisfied based on the following evaluation:

a.

Test radiation of 1.1 x 10 8 rad gamma exceeds the requirement of 2 x 10 7 rad gamma.

nul080-0014a-43 7

i I

I I

I Sheet 2 (Contd)

b. *Penetration sleeve subassembly which covers the connector assembly inside the containment provides adequate shielding from beta radiation.

Table 3.6 on "Radiation Dose Limits of Materials" in Reference Document 8 indicates that no measurable changes/degradations occur in the properties of fused glass when exposed to radiation levels of 1 x 10 9 rads gamma which exceeds. the requirement of 2.2 x 10 8 rads (combined gamma and beta) for the Palisades Plant.

Document Reference 6 by similarity confirms that silicon rubber insulation of wires inside the canister can withstand radiation doses up to 2 x 10 8 rads gamma which exce~ds the 1 x 10 7 rads gamma requirement.

2.3.3 CHEMICAL SPRAYS The LOCA test covered by Reference 1 indicates that the required chemical spray was continued only for 20 minutes during peak valves of temperature and pressure.

This meets the requirements of the Palisades Plant based on following evaluation:

a.

Analysis covered by Document Reference 9 indicates that spray chemicals, including hydrazine in low concentrations, have no effect on the potting compound and the sealing washer or 0-ring.

b.

In addition, hydrazine is highly unstable and will decompose rapidly when chemical spray is released into containment.

2.3.4 AGING Document References 2 and 3 provide evidence of 40-year life qualification for the potting compound and the sealing washer or 0-ring.

Document Reference 6, by similarity, confirms the 40-year life qualification for the silicon rubber insulated cables used inside the canisters.

Document References 4 and 5 provide evidence that boron-free soda-lime glass used by Viking Industries Inc for bulkhead connector pin support and the dielectric material has much higher threshold for nuclear radiation exposure (up to 1 x 10 9 rad) than other dielectric materials and has very high temperature withstand capabilities (suitable for operation at 575°F for 400 hours0.00463 days <br />0.111 hours <br />6.613757e-4 weeks <br />1.522e-4 months <br />).

Therefore, it is concluded that the glass seal is not susceptible to degradation due to thermal aging and is considered to be q~alified for 40-years' life requirement at the Palisades Plant.

nu1080-0014a-43 8

Sheet 2 (Contd) 2.4 SAFETY-RELATED CONNECTOR ASSEMBLIES WHICH ARE NOT POTTED There are two connector.assemblies which are safety related and not potted.

These will be potted by June 1982.

These are the circuits for the shutdown cooling isolation valves.

These valves are motor operated.

and have tag numbers of M0-3015 and M0-3016.

These valves are used during small LOCAs in order to go into shutdown cooling.

The proce-dures state that, at five hours after the LOCA began, if one HPSI pump can maintain pressure above 250 psig, go on shutdown cooling.

However~

should the connectors at the penetration fail due to the lack of potting, a short circuit may develop such that these valves are inoperable.

The procedures state that, if the shutdown cooling system is not available, to continue cooling with the. steam generator indefinitely.* The procedures also refer to the feedwater system operating procedure which describes five different sources of water to the condensate storage tank.

None of the sources or their valves is in a hostile area.

Should the primary circuit breaker also fail when the short circuit develops, the fault current may be such as to damage the penetration.

However, at five hours (1.8 x 10 4 seconds) after a small LOCA (0.02 ft 2 is about the size that one HPSI can maintain the.

primary* coolant pressure above 250 psig), the containment pressure will be very close to atmospheric.

The resulting release would be extremely*

small because of the small pressure differential between containment and atmosphere and the fact that this small break would not result. in core uncovery which would minimize fuel failures.

Radiation For connector assembly inside containment along with potting compound, sealing washer or 0-ring and bulkhead connector glass seals, the qualified level is 1.1 x 10 8 rads gamma.

For wires*

Boxes for Containment Air Coolers and G*0858*02A

Sheet 2 Component Junction Boxes J-350, -355 & -521 and Westinghouse TB's No 805432 2.0 The above components are Nema 4 enclosures and Westinghouse style terminal blocks rated at 600 volts and 40 amperes.

They are located below the flood level elevation of 596 1 -0 11 and will be submerged.

The junction box and terminal blocks are used in Class lE control and instrumentation circuits which are required to be functional for a maximum of one hour during an accident.

The junction box with terminal blocks mounted inside is qualified for the given environment inside the containment as below:

a.

Per Document Reference 1 the same type of junction box with identical style number of terminal blocks as the one installed in Palisades was tested for aging using Arrhenius techniques at 150°C (302°F) for 171 hours0.00198 days <br />0.0475 hours <br />2.827381e-4 weeks <br />6.50655e-5 months <br />.

This simulates a lire of 40-year for an ambient of 70°C (158°F).

After thermal aging the specimen was subjected to 5 x 10 6 rads and a chemical spray test with 2640 ppm of boric acid at 286°F at 40 psig for 31 hours3.587963e-4 days <br />0.00861 hours <br />5.125661e-5 weeks <br />1.17955e-5 months <br />.

The terminal block was kept energized at 525 volts during LOCA test.

b.

Per Document Reference 2, a separate test on the terminal block (with no junction box as enclosure) was. tested *for 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br />.at*.

340°F'and 90 psig by spraying borated water while the terminal block terminals were e~e~giz~d at 600 V.

c.

Document Reference 3 establishes by evaluation that the terminal block can withstand a radiation dose of 2 x 10 7 R.

No credit has been taken for this.

d.

Document Reference 4 establishes the negligible corrosive effect of chemical spray including hydrazine on the insulating material and the junction box material (sheet steel) which shield the terminal blocks from. direct spray and, in addition, hydrazine is highly unstable and will decompose rapidly when chemical spray is released into the containment.

e.

No credit has been taken to the following:

1.

The test specimens in Document References 1 and 2 were energized at 525.volts and 600 volts, respectively, against the control circuit voltage of 125 V or less to which installed terminal blocks are connected.

2.

The shielding effect of junction box on terminal block withstand.capability due to radiation is not considered.

They will become submerged during the LOCA.

However, the function will be able to be carried out prior to submergence.

Sheet 2 ASCO Solenoid Valveg ASCO SV-30~ -0338, -0342 SV-0346,. -034 7 The safety injection tank check valve leakage isolation valves, SV-0338,

-0342, -0346, -0347 and -3069 all close on SIS which is very early in the event.

All but SV-3069 are de-energized to their on-the-shelf position.

No qualification data could be located for these valves.

Should these valves fail due to age-related degradation, there is a possibility that the line from the safety injection tanks to the primary system drain tank could be opened.

This is a one-inch line.

The analyses presented in CEN-114P, Combustion Engineering NSSS Response to Small LOCAs, show that SI tanks are required only for breaks 0.1 ft 2 and greater.

The safety injection signal occurs for this break prior to 30 seconds.

Computing the flow to the primary system drain*

tanks assuming no line loss,. atmospheric pressure in the drain tanks and 200 psig in the SI tanks yields a loss of 36 ft 3 of SI tank liquid compared to 1,103 ft 3 in the tank.

This is an acceptable loss.

For the large LOCA, this loss will be significantly less as the safety injection signal occurs at one second.

If these* s.olenoid valves fail in.:the long term,* HPSI flow may be diverted to the Primary Coolant System Drain Tank instead of to the Primary Coolant System.

Failure to the open position is not considered probable because, as stated above, these valves close early in the event on SIS.

They de-energize to their on-the-shelf position which is closed and vented.

The only possible path for air to get to the control valve is through the seat.

The seats fail by hardening or cracking not through total disintegration.

Also, the vent.

path is open so any seepage will be vented.

CP. Co believes that the control valve will not receive sufficient air pressure to open even if all of the failures occur as postulated.

Even if the valve opens the results are acceptable.

For large LOCAs, the Primary Coolant System rapidly depressurizes so that the path to the PSDT is the same pressure as the path to the Primary Coolant System.

Since the flow is very much smaller (3/8-inch throat diameter), the loss will be negligible.

For small break LOCAs, the core does not uncover.

The containment conditions are less severe and, since the core does not uncover, the radiation le.vels are much less.

The solenoid valve, if it fails at all, will fail later in the accident.

The Primary Coolant System pressure is dropping during small breaks but not as quickly as during the large LOCAs.

As a result, the flow to the PSDT will be a larger portion of the safety injection flow to the Primary Coolant System than it was during the large breaks.

However, failure still should not result in core uncovery for any significant period of time as the core level is at least four feet above the top of the core for these small breaks.

This is based on the fact that for breaks as small as 0.02 ft the amount diverted is only 2.5% of the total flow (flow area of path to the PSDT is only 10% of the break area and 25% spillage is assumed).

For breaks even smaller where the flow area of the path.to the PSDT is a signficant fraction of the break area, the charging pumps have the capacity to make up for the last flow.

These valves will be replaced with qualified valves by June 1982.

e Fis6her C~~trols E/P 0338, 0342, 0346, 0347 Sheet 2 Component Fischer Controls Electropneumatic Transducers The transducers have been qualified by an environmental test described in Reference 1.

The test sequence was as follows.

Steam was admitted to the test chamber and brought to an equilibrium condition of 75 psig and 320°F.

The time required was 10 to 30 seconds.

This temperature and pressure were h~ld for one hour.

The conditions in the chamber were reduced to 41 psig and 288°F and held for 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br />; then cooled to ambient.

During the test, the transducer was exercised at one hour and several times during the reduced pressure and temperature phase.

Reference 2 provides the review and conclu-sion by Fischer Controls that the transducers will withstand 2.x 10 7 rad.

Chemical spray will not affect the transducer as it is enclosed in a metal housing.

Reference 3 documents the fact that only the coil windings need be qualified for proper operation.

The coil windings are Formvar (Reference 3),

and they have a qualified life of greater than 40 years (Reference 4).

The humidity requirement is 100%.

The environmental test enveloped these conditions for 13*hours, so the guidelines are met.

Radiation*

The radiation to which qualification must be shown is 2 x 10 7 rads.

The transducer will withstand 2 x 10 7.rads; therefore, the guidelines are met.

Beta radiation does not effect this enclosed transducer.

Submergence These components are located above the flood level elevation of 569'-0"; therefore, the guidelines are met.

Containment Sprays The transducer is enclosed and, therefore, the effects of the chemical spray are negligible.

Service Conditions for a PWR Main Steam Line Break.Inside Containment Temperature and Pressure Steam Conditions Use of LOCA conditions is acceptable because CP Co and NUREG-0458 recognize that although the peak temperature and pressure for an MSLB inside containment is greater than that for a LOCA, its duration is short and the effect will be small.

These transmitters are used to monitor pressurizer pressure on a wide range.

The Plant will install at the first appropriate outage Rosemount 1153A pressure transmitters for wide-range pressure signal and indication for the subcooling meter.

These transmitters will be used to monitor primary system pressure wide range.

d.

No submergence data is required as these are mounted above the submergence level.

These transmitters will operate throughout the LOCA for the following reasons:

The transmitter is mounted on a 2-ft thick' wall very close to two other thick walls which are perpendicular to the one on which the transmitter is mounted.* As a result, the dose is reduced by a factor of 4 (ie, 1/4 of an infinite cloud of radioaetivity will affect the valve).

1/C #4/0 Power Cable 5 kV With Butyl Rubber Insulation and PVC Jacket The subject cables are used in Class lE circuits outside the containment.

The qualification is based on the following documents and discussion:

A.

Per Page 534 in Document Reference 1, the butyl insulation can withstand radiation up to 5 x 10 6 R with no change in dielectric property.

This meets the environmental requirements on radiation.

B.

The cable can withstand a dose of 5 x 10 7 R with 20% reduction in dielectric property.

Th.e cable is rated for 5 kV and is conservatively used in a 2.4 kV system.

Thus, for the given operating voltage of 2.4 kV, even with a 20% reduction in dielectric property, dielectric failure is extremely unlikely at 5 x 10 7 R.

C.. Per Document Reference 2, cable with butyl insulation CCiil withstand 125°C (257°F) for four weeks with no change in dielectric property.

Also, the dielectric strength relatively remains constant after exposure*. to air oven aging test at 121 °C for-12 months.

D.

Per Document Reference 2, the physical prope~ty'of the cabie is w;i.thin acceptable limits after exposure to air oven test at 121°C for 28 months continuously-and for 60 month~ *with alternate seven days at room tell)j;>era-ture.

These ~ccelerated aging test parameters far exceed the 40-year life requirement for cable in an environinent where the normal ambient is only 22.2°C (72°F).

This approach is based on the ten degree half life rule per IEEE 101 (1974) and IEEE 117 (1974).

Document Reference 3 also supplements this data where the test was done at 121°C for 293 weeks.

E.

Per Document Reference 3, the cable passed the*-dielectric test after immersion in water for 160 weeks.

F.

No credit has been taken for the jacket furnished.

SUMMARY

1.

Paragraph A provides evidence for radiation qualification.

2.

Paragraphs C and D provide evidence for temperature and aging qualifica-tion.

3.

Paragraph E provides evidence for humidity qualification.
