SPS/GDM:pmk Docket Nos.
Licensee Nos.
88-7880 50-280 50-281 DPR-32 DPR-37 As discussed in our previous response to the subject bulletin (Letter No.
88-788B, dated April 3, 1989, we have completed additional actions to ensure that only qualified molded case circuit breakers (MCCBs) can be used in safety related applications.
We have taken these actions to ensure a conservative approach was used to disposition the stock and installed MCCBs.
In preparing this supplemental response, we considered the recent discussions between the NRG Staff and the Nuclear Management and Resources Council regarding future guidance in addressing ongoing NRG Bulletin 88-10 activities.
Our revised response is prcivided in the enclosure.
The information contained herein is true and accurate to the best of my knowledge.
If you require additional information, please contact us.
Very truly yours, j?sp--

e Enclosure RESPONSE TO NRCB 88-10 AND SUPPLEMENT 1 Action Requested la)
Identify all molded-case CBs purchased prior to August I, 1988 that are being maintained as stored spares for safety-related (Class IE) applications or co11111ercial grade CBs that are being maintained as stored spares for future use in safety-related applications; this includes CBs purchased from a CBM or from any other source.
Response
The MCCBs being maintained as stored spares for use in safety-related applications have been identified and are listed in Table 1.
A review of stock items was also performed for MCCBs that may have been provided in electrical panels or motor control centers.
No additional MCCBs were identified as a result of this effort.
Action Requested lb)
Verify the traceability of these MCCBs.
Response
The trac~ability of the MCCBs maintained in stock has been reevaluated.
Although correspondence obtained from both intermediate suppliers and circuit breaker manufacturers provided a MCCB procurement chain, actual procurement/
shipping records were not available for review in most instances.
Commercial suppliers stated that they often purchase breakers in bulk to use as their in-house stock; consequently, individual breakers purchased from the suppliers are drawn from their stock and are generally not directly traceable to the CBM through shipping records. Therefore, to be conservative, we consider the MCCBs identified in Table 1 as non-traceable.
Action Requested le Identify the number, manufacturer, model number, and to the extent possible, the procurement chain for all those CBs identified in (la) that cannot be traced to the CBM.
Response
This information is provided in Table 1.
Action Requested 2)
All holders of operating licenses.who identify installed CBs per item I above or item 4 below that cannot be traced to a CBM are requested to prepare, within 30 days of the completion of each item, an analysis justifying continued operation until items 1 through_ 5 of the actions requested in this bulletin have been completed.
e
Response
The installed nontraceable MCCBs have been identified and are currently being tested per the bulletin requirements.
The testing of the Unit 1 MCCBs is complete with no breaker failures.
Five Unit 2 MCCBs have been satisfactorily tested as well, with the remainder to be tested prior to Unit 2 startup. A justification for continued operation is not required.
Action Requested 3)
All addressees who identify 80 percent or more CBs traceable to the CBM per item 1 above are requested to test the CBs that are not traceable to the CBM in accordance with the test program described in Attachment 1.
Any installed CBs that fail any of these tests should be replaced with *CBs that meet the criteria of item 7 of the actions requested or CBs that pass all tests in accordance with the testing program described in Attachment 1.
If more than 10 percent of the CBs tested fail any of the tests described in Attachment 1, continue with item 4; otherwise, proceed to item 6 of the actions requested.
Holders of operating licenses are requested to complete this testing program before startup from the first refueling outage beginning after March 1, 1989.
Response
As discussed in Action lb above, the MCCBs maintained in stock for use in safety-related applications have been conservatively considered as nontraceable.
Controls have been implemented to prohibit issue of a MCCB for plant installation until the breaker is tested in accordance with the bulletin testing requirements. A station procedure has been implemented to perform the testing.
General testing or replacement of the MCCBs in stock to eliminate the administrative controls will be accomplished in accordance.with the established schedule *provided in the bulletin.
Action Requested 4)
All addressees who identify less than 80 percent of the CBs traceable to the CBM per item 1 above or who identify a failure rate of more than 10 percent for the CBs tested per item 3 above are requested to perform the following actions:
a)
Identify all molded-case CBs that have been purchased between August 1, 1983 and August 1, 1988, and installed in safety-related applications as replacements or installed during modifications.
Response
The MCCBs installed in safety-related systems between August 1, 1983 and August 1, 1988 have been identified and are provided in Table 2.
b)
Verify the traceability of these MCCBs.
Response
See Table 2.
c)
Identify the number, manufacturer, model
- number, system in which they are/were installed, and to the extent possible, the procurement chain for all those CDs identified in (4a) that cannot be traced to the CBM.
~--1
e
Response
See Table 2.
Action Requested 5)
All addressees who identify installed CBs that cannot be traced to the CBM per item 4 above are requested to replace these CBs with components that meet the criteria of item 7 of the actions requested or to test them in accordance with the program described in Attachment 1; CBs that fail any of these tests should be replaced with CBs that meet the criteria of item 7 of the actions requested or CBs that pass all tests in accordance with the test program described in. Holders of operating licenses are requested to replace or to test at least one-half, or all if the total number is less than 75, of these installed CBs before startup from the first refueling outage beginning after March 1, 1989.
The remaining CBs should be replaced or tested before startup from the second refueling outage beginning after March 1, 1989.
Response
The MCCBs identified in Table 2 are currently being tested.
The testing of the Unit 1 MCCBs is complete with no breaker failures.
Five Unit 2 MCCBs have been satisfactorily tested as well, with the remainder to be tested prior to Unit 2 startup.
Action Requested 6)
Information generated while perfonning the actions requested in items 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 above should be documented and maintained for a period of 5 years after the completion of all requested actions.
Response
The information collected to satisfy actions 1-5 above will be maintained on site in an auditable fashion for a minimum of 5 years.
Action Requested 7)
With the exception of actions taken in response to items 3 and 5 of the actions requested above, molded-case CBs installed in safety-related applications after August 1, 1988 should be:
- a. Manufactured by and procured from a CBM under a 10 CFR 50, Appendix B,
program; or
- b.
Procured from a CBM or others with verifiable traceability to the CBM, in compliance with applicable industry standards, and upgraded to safety-related by the licensee or others using an acceptable dedication program.
e e
Response
The documents used to procure safety-related MCCBs have been revised to require traceability of the MCCBs to a CBM.
In addition, MCCB purchase orders (POs) issued since August 1, 1988 were reviewed. Outstanding POs were amended to require traceability to a CBM.
Two MCCBs were received after August 1, 1988, but prior to implementation of the new traceability requirements.
These two breakers have been removed from stock.
The existing non-traceable MCCBs in stock as of August 1, 1988 that successfully pass the bulletin testing requirements will be considered acceptable for use in safety-related applications.
MCCBs procured after August 1, 1988 from a commercial supplier and traceable to a CBM will be tested prior to installation until the process is replaced by an enhanced dedication program.
A procurement engineering group has been established to review each purchase requisition to provide assurance that the appropriate traceability, testing and/or dedication requirements have been imposed.
An enhanced dedication program for upgrading commercial grade equipment for safety-related applications is presently under development.
