50--313/77-13 2.

Report Date: July 1, 1977 3.

Occurrence Date:

June 2, 1977 4

Facility:

Arkansas Nuclear One-llnit 1 Russellville, Arkansas 72801 5.

Identification of Occurrence:

The failure of a Reactor Building cooling fan which is a condition leading to operation in a degraded mode pemitted by a limiting condition for operation (Technical Specification 3.3.4).

6.

Conditions Prior to Occurrence:

Description of Occurrence:

At 2159 hours0.025 days <br />0.6 hours <br />0.00357 weeks <br />8.214995e-4 months <br /> on June 2,1977, Feeder Breaker B5-512 opened to Load Center B5, which supplies power to Reactor Building Cooling Fans VSFM-1A 618. An investigation and meggering of both fan motors indicated grounded phase windings in VSFM-1A after which Load Center B5 was re-energized. The tripping of Breaker B5-512 indicated that selective tripping did not occur since Breaker 52-523 (feeder breaker to VSFM-1A) should have tripped.

Designation of Apparent Cause of Occurrence:

Design Proc' dure e

Manufacture Unusual Service Condition Including Environmental Installation /

Construction Component Failure X

(See Failure Data)

Operator Cther (specify)

X The motor bearings had insufficient lubrication.

9.

Analysis of Occurrence:

Since a safety analysis was performed for operation with less than 4 RB cooling fans and the subsequently approved technical specification changes allow 2-cooling units to be operable and powered from independent busses, there was no hazard to the health and safety of the public.

V Reportable Occurrence Report No. 50-313/77-13 10.

Corrective Action:

The motor was removed and shipped to the vendor. (Reliance Electric

-Company) to be rebuilt. The remaining 3 fan unit's bearings were lubricated and will be placed on a more frequent lubrication schedule.

. The bearings in at least one of the redundant fans will be inspected by the end of the next refueling outage. A breaker test was performed on Breaker 52-523 which indicated that the trip had drifted high. A Preventive Maintenance Program is being established to test all vital 480 volt circuit breakers and calibrate all overcurrent relays.

Failure Data:

Fan Motor: VSFM-1A, 480 volt, 125 HP, 1800 RPM, 60 cycle, 3 phase induction motor, fram design 7DB-5003, Reliance Electric Company.

Circuit Breaker: 52-523, 480 volt, 225 AMP ACB, Trip Coil Model OD-5, ITE Manufacturer.
