hjentification_ and Description of Occurrence:

During SI 4.2.B.8, reactor high pressure switches were found at:ove T.S. limits.

At 0920 PS 68-93 switch #2 was found at 124 psi; at 1115,PS 68-94 switch #2 was found at 131 psi. Test limit is 123 psi, which is the limit of 115 psi plus 8 psi water leg.

Conditions Prior to Occurrence:

Unit I refueling outage.

C Unit 2 maintenance outage Unit 3 at 100%

Action specified in the Technical Specificatii;n SurveiUance Requirements met
