/ 81022 Technical Specification Involved Table 3.2.8 Reported Under Technical Specification 6.7.2.b(2)
Date of Occurrence 5/7/81 Time of Occurrence 000 Unit 1 Identification and Pescription of Occurrence:
Core spray auto-sequencing timer 14A-Kl9B was found to operate in 8.04 seconds during SI 4.2.B-39D.
T.S. Table 3.2.B requires between 6 and 8 seconds.
Conditions Prior to Occurrence:
Unit I refueling outage Unit 2 at 40%
Unit 3 at 60%
Action specified in the Technical Specification Surveillance Requirements met due to inoperable equipment. Describe.
Met requirements of T.S. Table 3.2.B.
Agrent Cause of Occurrence:
Time delay relay out of calibration.
l l
A_nalysis of Occurrence:
There was no danger to the health or safety of the public, no release of activity, no damage to the plant or equipment, and no resulting significant chain of events.
l l
Corrective Action
l Relay was adjusted, tested, and returned to service. Relays are scheduled to be replaced by Agastat timers on P0109. Units 2 and 3 have had relays replaced.
