[a 121 I While in Mode 2, during low power ..esting prior to initial power level escala ; '

i3j3; g tion, it was discovered that auxiliary feedwater flow gauges in the control  ;

l firTT] I room did not agree with local gauges within the tolerance specified by the f

335; j channel check.

This violates T.S.3.3.3.6 which is reportable per T.S.6.9.1.13(b) .

io a;i Since the errors were discovered in preliminary testing prior to a situation g

[oi3}t which would require scrutiny of these instruments, this incident had no effect; o in ;

1 on the safe operation of the plant or the health and safety of the public.
