Inspection on April 16, 1979 (Combined Report Nos. 50-272/79-13 and 50-311/79-27)

Areas Inspected:

Routi*ne, announced inspection by a. regional based inspector.

The inspection consisted of a review of the engineering weights used for the

Velan Valves in the piping analysis program (reference IE Bulletin No. 79-04)and

the design analysis associated with the replacement of the Differential Voltage

Relays 12PVD11 type.

The inspection involved 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> at the corporate office

by one NRC regional based inspector.

Results:

Of the two areas inspected, no items of noncompliance were identified.

Velan Swing Check Valves CReference IE Bulletin 79,.04)

The inspector reviewed the licensee's computer valve listing which

identified the size, location, type, manufacturer, and code require-

ments for the Salem Nuclear Generating Station, Unit 1 and 2.

The

.valve listing identified the Velan Swing Check Valves as FA-3.3 (3

11 )

FA-34 (4

11 ) and FA-35 (6

11 ).

An examination of the valve listing in-

dicated that the listing of FA-33, FA-34, and FA-35 included all the

3 irtch, 4 inch,. and 6 inch Velan Valves in Units 1 and 2.

The. inspector reviewed. the Velan Swing Check Valve *drawing Nos.

78409 (3

11 ), 78501 (4

11

) and 78704 (6

11 ) and verified that the drawings

listed weights .were correct with the latest Velan Engineering infor-

mation.

The listed drawings had the corrections made to the

11 Notes

section of the drawings as indicated below:

Valve Listing of November 26, 1973 has the weight of the 78704 valve

  • as 450 lbs.

The licensee used the Franklin Institute Pipidyn II program for cal-

culating the Seismic Category 1 piping stresses.

The inspector *re-

viewed the engineering data sheets and verified that the present

calculations have the corrected weights, as listed above, factored into

the Pi pi dyn I I pr,ogram.

that the Velan Valve weights for the

Bus* Differential Voltage Relays*

Code

ASTMA-36 (CS}

The licensee was informed by General Electric on April 11, 1979 that

the* Switchgear Business Department (SBD} of the General Electric

Company has recalculated a relay panel required response spectra (RRS}

for the 4. 16KV 350MVA Metal Clad Switchgear that is used for Vital

Bus. appl feat ion at the Sa 1 em Nuclear Generating Station Units 1 and 2.

The Horizontal and Vertical Design Basis Earthquake (DBE} floor

  • RRS. for the 100 foot elevation of the Auxiliary Building was used

in a relay seismic test according to the requirements of the IEEE

Standard 501 entit.led

11Se-ismic Testing of Relays.

General Electric

stated that except for the PVD llCllA and 9 ohm HEA lock out relay coil,

the Vital Bus Switchgear Relays have been sefsmicaJly tested

to levels which envelope the computed relay panel RRS and meet the

requirements of P.O. 303-79520.

General Electric stated that *the PVD21D series of *re*l~s w;hich replaces the

PVDll series of relays have,been tested to seismic levels which envelope

the computed relay panel RRS and were functionally operable before,

during, and after exposure to seismic levels defined in IEEE 501.

The licensee notified Region I of the relay problem on April 11, 1979.

The inspector reviewed the test data associated with the Differential

Voltage Relay, General Electric.Report RN Letter No. 99.

The inspector

verified that the licensee has ordered the replacement relay 12 PVD 21

and 23 ohm HEA coils for the Salem 1 and 2 Units.

This item is considered to be unresolved.

The .installation and testing

of the 12 PVD 21 relay and 23 ohm HEA coil will be verified during a

subsequent inspection.

Unresolved Items

5.

Unresolved items are matters about which more information is

required in order to ascertain whether they are acceptable items,

items of noncompliance, or deviations.

One unresolved item dis-

closed during this inspection ii discussed in Paragraph 3.

Exit Interview

The inspector met with the licensee representatives (denoted in

Paragraph 1) at the conclusion of the inspection on April 16, 1979.

The inspector summarized the purpose and the scope of the inspection

and the findings .
