4 handling, identification, use of specified material, inspection procedures, work performance, size and type of cable, location, routing, protection separation, raceway identification, raceway. loading, cable terminations and nonconformance control.

The inspector identified two examples of failure to properly document the routing of cable. Cable 1*RN624 and 1*WN502 were found to be installed and inspected without completing the required route. This is a violation which will be identified as 413/81-21-01 Cable Route Contrary to the Cable Routing Card.

The licensee issued Nonconforming Item Reports 12962 and 12973 covering the violation.

Further review by the licensee identified that the procedure M418 serial 9 was revised to include an inspection to verify the starting and finishing junction points on the M41B Serial 15 termination inspection.

This-change was made in October 1981. The cables were installed prior to the change.

The licensee identified that in both cases the original location for the device was not the final location.

The apparent cause is the moving of instrumentation without adequate communications to the cable design group.

j Other than the violation identified above there were no other violations identified.
