Dear Mr. Kingsley:

SUBJECT:

VOLUME 3, SECTION 111.13.2 (CABLE AMPACITY) 0F THE NUCLEAR PERFORMANCE PLAN. BROWNS FERRY NUCLEAR PLANT, UNIT 2 (TAC NO. 62260)

Section !!!.13.2 of Volume 3 of the Nuclear Performance Plan for the Browns Ferry Nuclear Plant outlined inadequacies in the Tennessee Valley Authority's (TVA's) electrical design standards used to size the insulated power cable ampacities, thereby, resulting in the potential undersizing of safety-related cables at the Brown Ferry Nuclear Plant. By letters dated January 25. July 7 September 30, 1988, and March 17, April 18, April 27, and October 6, 1989. TVA submitted dete11ed information concerning the cable ampacity program at Browns Ferry, Unit 2 to correct these inadequacies.

The staff has completed its evaluation of the proposed corrective action as identified in the TVA submittals and concludes that they are acceptable.

Our Safety Evaluation supporting the above conclusion is enclosed.

If you have questions concerning the above, please call the Browns Ferry Project Manager, Gerald Gears at 301-492-0767.

Sincerely.
