  • I This report docunents a progrs= of vertical tray fisse testing. The program constitutes a Type Test for qualification of a heat shrinkable field splicing system (Type WCSF-M) for Class 1E electric cables for nuclear power generating s tation's. -

Testing was conducted in the flane chinber of the Raychem Corporation in accordance with IEEE Standard 383-1974, Section 2.5, "Flane Tests". CONCLUSIONS .

                 ~                                                 .

Both spliced and unspliced cable sc=ples were -self-extinguishing when subjected to the vertical tray fisme test with a 70,000 ~ BTU / hour propane burner heat source t as required 'uy ir hos-1974,Sae.cica2.5. !n addition, all sasplas vera self-extinguishing when tested in accordance with IEEE 333-1974 procedures and a 210,000 BTU / hour prrpane burner hest source. On the basis of the test results, best shrinkable'k'CSF-N cenponents are fla e test qualified as a field splicing syste= for Class lE electric cables in accordance with IEEE Sensdard 383-1974. ( .

SAMPLE *DESCRI? TION Tield splices were installed on eight foot. lengths of seven conductor, 12 AWG Raychem 71.mtro1TM insulated and jacketed control c ble utilicing appropriate WCSF-N heat shrinkable splicing sleeves. h detailed senple description is giten in Appendix I. The splices were installed in accordance with Rayche= Insta11ctic-Cuide, Number IG-1060 for.WCSF Type In-Line Multiconductor Field Splices. (, i Q) .

l i Each test run consisted of three spliced cables and fodr identical unspliced chbles to produce the tr,y fill required by the specification. . a

                                   ' A 12 inch cable tray with 6 inch rung spacing was used to support the sanples.

Tbc spliced cables f'or a given test were positioned either at the center of the tray or . alternated with u= spliced cables across the. tray. In all cases an un-spliced cable was pla::ed at each side of the group of sa ples. TEST PROCEDUp.E A propane burner, as described in the Standard was utili=ed as the heat source. ylcu =cters calibrated by actual weight ar.d gas consuned were utili:cd to achiave either 70,000 or 210,000 3TJ/ hour gas censu=ption. The burner was positioned , approxi=ately two feet above the bo:::= af the vertical tray with the splices [, located so that the point of fin =e i=pinge=ent was locnted at the icwer end of the splice area. The bur:er-en time for all tests was 20 minutes.

                            .         Separate'240/100 volt failure detection circuits were provided for the spliced and unspliced cable sa=ples. Both vire-to-wire and vire-to-tray failures were indi ste by the circuits.                                                                      ,
                           /          Three separate tests were run a: each burner setting utili:ing different sa=ples cf cable and splicing cenponents (Appendix I) to demonstrate reproducibility as t

required by Section 2.5.4.3 of the standard. - D e s O e

RAYCHEM INTRODUCTION The current energy crisis and increased power consumption have created a demand for more power planu. When these factors are combined wi th our current ecological awareness and the need to prevent additional damage t6 the environment, nuclear power plants emerge as viable candidates to satisfy our power needs. As cf September 30, 1971, 10,040,800 kilowatts of electricity could be generated in the United States by nuclear power plants; additional capacity of 45,779,000 kilowatts were being built; and 51,571,000 kilowatts of nuclear power were being planned l . This growth attests to the increased { . attention being given to nuclear power as a source of energy. While the ultimate purposes of a nuclear power plant are the same as those of a fossil fuel plant, the requirements and demands placed upon electrical insulating materials are different, in a fossil fuel plant, the engineer needs to know M the electrical properties of the insulating materials, how these properties change with time, and the effects of moisture and oxygen upon electrical and physical properties. For nuclear power plant use, in addition to the aforementioned properties, the engineer also needs to know how the materials are af fected by nuclear radiation over a 40 year lifetime. Virtually all organic materials are known to be affected by radiation. In some cases where the radiation can be controlled, the property profiles of many organic materials are improved by exposure to radiation. In these cases, the material is exposed to gamma or electron beam radiation under t i I " Nuclear Reactors Built, Being Built, or Planned in the. United States as of December 31, 1971", National Technical Information Service, Report '4 umber TID-8200 (25th Revision) .

RAYCHEM r C carefully controlled conditions for specific lengths of time and a material with an improved property spectrum results. These improved materials have greater tensile strength, greater stress crack resistance, lower moisture vapor transmission, greater elastic memory, in addition to the other improve-ments over their non-irradiated counterparts. in a nuclear power plant, the exposure of materials to radiation cannot be fully controlled, nor can the length of exposure be reasonably controlled. The materials installed in a nuclear power plant must have the highest possible resistance to the long-7 term effects of heat and radiation. In addition to inherent radiation resistance, the materials used in a nuclear power plant must also provide assurance that in the event of an accident, they will maintain their integrity so that the plant may be safely e, (,,) shutdown. This is true i f the accident were to occur during start-up or af ter the plant had been operating for many years. Consequently, materials designed for use in nuclear power plants must be evaluated under accident conditions before and af ter their exposure to nuclear radiation. t Raychen Corporation has extensive experience in the irradiation of ( i organic materials. For over 15 years, our principal business has been the irradiation of organic materials to enhance their balance of properties. Some of the products developed in our laboratories and extensively tested I in use are our heat recoverable high voltage terminations (hVT) and 600-2000v In-line splices (WCSF). This report describes the evaluation of these products

RAYCHEM 3 PP.0 GRAM OUTLINE HVT and WCSF evaluatiens were divided into two phases: materials evaluation and systems evaluation. The materials evaluation consisted of an in-depth look at how the materials of construction behaved as a result of nuclear radiation. Systems evaluation consisted of an in-depth analysis of how the completely assembled parts behaved as a result of nuclear radia-tion and how well it withstood the ef fects of a loss of coolant accident before and af ter exposure to nuclear radiation. ( , The evaluation was based upon the institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers " Proposed Guide for Type Tests of Class I Cables and Connections Installed inside the Containment of Nuclear Power Generating Stations". The test sequence for materials consisted of: "

                                                                                                      .]
1. Heat aging the materials in a forced air oven at 1210 20C for 6 168 hours.
2. Irradiation of the materials in a cobalt 60 gamma source at 0.52 Mrads per hour to total doses of 100 and 200 Mrads.

The test sequence for assembled high voltage terminations and in-line low voltage (i.e., 600-2000v) splices consisted of:

1. Heat aging high voltage terminated cables at 1210 1 30C for 168 hours in a forced air oven.

2. Irradiation of assemblies with cobalt 60 gonna radiation at 0.50 Mrads per hour for HVT's and .27 Mrads per hour for WCSF to total doses of 100 and 200 Mrads.

TEST RESULTS

                        . Tables I and 2 shat the results of the materials evaluation of Raychem HVT's and WCSF sleeves. These data show that even af ter 168 hours at 1210C in a forced air ovan and subsequent irradiation to 200 Mrads cobalt 60 gamma radiation in air, the products have maintained a very high degree of mechanical I       ')

s< integrity. As an example the outer hip.h voltage tubing and stress grading noterial have ruintained at least 800 and 700 clongations, respectively. This, coupled with the excellent tensile strengths, indicates that these materials have suf ficient toughness and radiation resistance to withstand ( 200 Mrads gamma radiation. Table 3 shows the electrical performance of 15KV HVT's during LOCA tests. From the data, it is evident that all HVT's, those irrcdiated to 100 or 200 Mrads, as well as those not irradiated at all, are capable of performing during a loss of coolant accident. Applied voltages for the 15KV HVT's during LOCA tests varied between 8.7 and 15KV, phase to ground. Table 4 yields similar data for SKV HVT's. Here again, the Raychem

O- e RAYCHEM 9 HVT's successfully withstand LOCA tests before and after irradiation. The SKV HvT's were subjected to applied voltages between 5 to 8.6KV phase to ground during the LOCA sequence. Table 5 shows electrical performance of a series of in-line splices i made on 600,1000 and 2000 volt class cable and subjected to continuous maximum cable rated voltages.

SUMMARY

[ Da:a supplied in this report show that when properly assembled, Raychem high voltage terminaticns and in-line low voltage splices may be recomnended for use in nuclear ocwer plants. The assembled terminations and splices have successfully withstood DBE and LOCA tests and remain functional during S the accident. They will perform so as to permit a safe and orderly shut- . down of equipment in the event of a loss of coolant acciddnt. 4 gy*mjgy;; ?Kisuih!"V2,? 1n.ma
