The program he outlined has not been formaliced or implemented as yet. ( In view of the relatively larac amount of equip-j ment now at the site, such a program should be J promptly dcveloped and implemented. The present document record file for elect rical l [ receiving inspection action contains all such documents for everything received at the site { requiring such documentation. These documents j' are filed as they are completed (chronologically). f The recovery of documents f rom such a file was 8 discussed f rom a standpoint of the great difficulty g' involved when the reevrd grew to thousands of hI documents extending over a period of years. 't b g It was observed that the receiving inspection ] fj record was a " success file" since it did not have h any discrepapt items. Discussions on this subject y revealed what the inspector considered to be Icose. f p rocedu res. It was suggested that this was one r more area where closer control and better procedures F could be developed. h Duke management was encouraged to review their .[ procedures for receiving inspectioni documentation 1l and filing, and the field management of discrepant ij equipment / materials.- The advantages of maintaining a sep- . j;. arate file for discrepant items, which would be an j ^V active file reviewed continually and updated as discrepant items were corrected, was discussed as being H very important to reveal the individual actions that ') n the inspectors took on a daily basis, and would go a [f long way toward certifying their QA/QC actions. t .g i (: 2.

They are responsible for making the initial seicetion and preparing the purchase specifications. These specifications are .I prepared'in such a' manner that they specify the type and i extent of QA/QC required for the production of such f -assemblies and components.

I These conclusions are based on several principal subjects d discussed and are taken up individually in the following l narrat ive bl j5 (1) Separations Criteria .( l On the subject of redundant safeguards cabic instal-lation, the inspector stated that a problem observed by the inspector at other plants seemingly was asso-ciated with the difficulty of administering the installation of large numbers of cables. With this b { consideration, the engineers were asked what their i criteria for installing the safegur.

Their reply was that those cables forming a pa:-t of redundant safeguards systems and located in the turbine building would be separated in individual trays by a distance of eight feet horizontal.

Further development of this detail revealed that I' I the licensee had fim plans to use armored cable i. throughout the plant. With this consideration, redundant cables could be located in the same tray 4 3-and still have the steel separation described by y many licensees in their separations criteria. The developing ccnversation revealed that they had def-g inite plans to maintain cenplete separation through. j out the plant for all redundant cables, with the { possibla exception of the point where cables j-le ft the trays and entered the control cabinets {,y in the cont rol room. Even there, detemined effort was { to be made to maintain separation. L (2) Cable Tray Installations A review of the detailed cabic tray layout 5 d rawings h revealed an ext nsive and well thought out cabic { tray installation. Plans were not firn as to how 'I the trays would I designated or the identification system that would L-s used. 11owever, early decisions had been made to provide redundant trays for the redundant safeguards cables. Further separation of systems was to be maintained with separate tray systems to be provided for the power cables above 600 volts, power cables below 600 volts, and instru-mentation and control cables. The inspector was reminded of their decision for armored cabic when he ques':ir 'ed their mixing of low-noise cabic with other cables. They reported that they had performed tests with low-noise b armored cables and stated they had not found one significant problem with mixed installations; v: consequently, they had decided to install low-noise ,f cables with the other instrument cables. i u (3) Cable Installation Administration { Planning for tne administration of cabic installations was not yet complete. The engineers spoke freely of a some of their ideas concerning this. They have pro-i posed to color code the armored cable for the redundant t i 1 (' t s. i g. 1. - r..,.,,,, 7 L L

The combination of color coding of f cables and the,significant marking characteristics proposed for the trays, along with a computerized administrative program of cable installations, are all being considered by the engineers. If this program can be arranged to give the various controls discussed, it ufl1 aid in the solution of the cable problem. I (4) Containment Vess 1 Penetration Area j Questions regarding the penetration area at the containecnt vessel produced answers in the form [ of detailed drawings which were reviewed by the i in s pect o r,. All cable splices and all connections i to and f rom the penetrations are made within the confines of a cabinet designed for the purpose and are either in the form of connectors or ( terminals within these cabinets. The penet rations themselves are as shown and described in the FSAR. I (5) Cable Tray Loading W ' It is proposed to load the cabic trays in accord-ance with the IICEA standards for the power cables. This standard reportedly calls for one layer only , ~, of arrored cabic in each tray separated by f rum one fourth to one diameter between cables. For the control and other cables, the loading will be l based on ampacity limits but, instead of reducing the number of cables in the tray, it is proposed to accomplish the same thing by derating the capacity s l of the cables, thus avoiding exceeding the ampacity limits even if the cable tray is 1007. full. This does not mean they propose to fill the trays 1007. full. As a matter of fact, they spoke in terms of i 307. fill. Ilowever, the final planning in this ,} area is not firm. (6) Wo rkmanship 'i A general discussion about concepts of installing t rays, equipment, and cables in the plant revealed that they feel secure in the fact that all employees are old-time, long-term employees of Duke Power '( Company which, in it.self, can be depended upon to produce an accomplished workmanlike job.
