Ntification of Reportable Occurrence NOTIFIED: Virgil Brownlee No. 50-321/1981-093.

DATE: Septerber 22, 1981 -

DATE: September 22, 1931 TIME: 1300 Hours EST DESCRIPil0V GF REPORTASLE OCCURRENCE Initial Condition At time of the occurrence (Septeaber 21,1931, at 1700 flours CST), Unit I was j

operating at 99 power.

( ;

_Natu_re of Occurrenc_e:

l While perforaing surge 111ance procedure HNP-1-3414, RCIC Turbine Exhaust Dia-phragm Pressure Instrtment functional Test and Calibration, it was found that switches E51-N012A-D actuated outside the accept.ance criteria allowed in Tech Specs.

Tech Spec 3.2-3, Iten 10, requires actuation at 510 psig. All switthes actuated above this point.

E51-N012A, B, C and D actuated at 10.4, 11.25, 14.2 and 13.4 psig respectively.

Immediate Corrective Action:

All RCIC Turbine bhaust Diaphragu High Pressure Switches were recalibrated per HNP-1-5279, Barksdale Pressure Switch Calibration Prot.adure,and are now within the acceptable tolerances es allowed per Tech Specs.

Cause:

Setpoint drif t can be attributed as the cause of this occurrence.

-g-6 [

Supplemental CorrectiveJetic;n:

/

An inve,11 ation is underway to deterwine if these switches can be replaced 9

wl:;

more reliabic switch.

E Status of Redundant or Beckup Systers:

All ECCS systews were operable and capable of perfornir3 their intended function.

Impact to Other Un!_t_s:

This occorrence is applicable to Unit 11 because Unit II uses the sarre type of Barksdale Pressure Switches for RCIC Turbine Exhaust Diaphrage. High Pressure.

HNP-2-3414 was performed on Septer4ber 1$,1931, with satisfactory results.

Justification for Continued Operation:

Continued operation is justified due to the recalibration of the RCIC Turbine Exhause Diaphragm High Pressure Switches.
