e-Tennessee Valley Authority Sequoyah Nuclear Plant LER SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION SQRO-50-327/80114 Technical Specification Involved:
6.9.1.13.C Reported Under Technical Specification 6.9.1.13.C Date of Occurrence:
7/3/80 Time of Occurrence: 0830 EDT Unit 1 Identifi ation and Description of Occurrence During support and hanger inspection in accordance with NRC Confirmation of Action Letter, the following supports were found to be improperly installed:
1-AFDH-6, 1-FPCH-526, 1-UHIH-31, 1-CVCH-458, 1-CVCH-460, 1-CVCH-461, 1-CCH-45, 1-AFDH-345, 1-RHRH-456, 1-AFDH-355, 1-AFDH-296, 1-RHRH-460, 1-CVCH-542, 1-AFDH-322, 1-SIH-77, 1-SGBH-80, 1-UHIH-91, 1-UHIH-115, 1-CVCH-145, 1-CVCH-84, and 1-SGBH-262.
Preliminary analysis from the Division of Engineering Design showed that these supports could cause a failure in the piping during a seismic event.
Conditions Prior to Occurrence Reactor was in mode 3, 4, or 5.
Action Specified in the Technical Specification Surveillance Requirements Met Due to Inoperable Ecuipment N/A.
Apparent Cause of Occurrance Improper design, installation,. or modification of various supports.
Analysis of Occurrence Supports could cause failure of piping during a seismic event. See response l
i to Confirmation of Action Letter for details on each individual support.
l
Corrective Action
l Supports were modified or reworked as required.
Failure Data N/A.
