SUMMARY

- NOVEMBER 1978 UNIT II The Unit continued with Post Core Hot Functional Testing throughout the report period.

Testing of the Main Steam Safety Relief Valves revealed lift setpoints that were less than con-s servative.

The procedure was identified as being incorrect when used with relief valves supplied by this vendor.

All valves setpoints were set and their blowback was adjusted (Reference RO 50-368/78-10).

On 11/7, the Condensate Storage Tank level fell below 80% for a period of about five hours.

The low level was caused by the inability of the Makeup Plants to produce condensate to meet the abnormally high demand.

The Makeup Plants were hampered by periods of unusually low city water quality.

Por-table DI trucks were brought in to assist in the making of condensate (Reference RO-50-368/78-12).

On 11/7, ANO was notified by the manufacturer of the Emergency Diesel Generator Units that the speed switch "urnished had a design problem that could cause e failure of the switch (Ref-erence RO-50-368/78-13).

The typ'e switch in question was found on the "B" Diesel.

After changeout, during the surveil-lance to prove its operability, the diesel tripped on low lube oil pressure and high water temperature.

The Unit was brought'to Cold Shutdown Conditions.

Inspsction of the diesel revealed damage to rod and main bearings, oistons and crank-shaft.

The mode of failure was not identified.

During re-testing following repair, another bearing was wiped.

It was i

postulated that oil aeration may be the problem, but no con-clusions could be made.

During ratesting following repair, another bearing was wiped.

An oil sample from the sump was taken and analyzed, but all specifications were in tolerance.

The Gulf oil was, however, changed out with a Mobil oil which met the required specifications.

During inspection, a base plate mounting screw was found loose, which may have not allowed uniform expansion of the machine.

After repairs, the Unit was load tested and surveillance tested and declared operable (Reference RO-50-368/78-16).

On 11/18, a waiver to allow con'tinuance of the Post-Core Hot Functional Testing with one Emergency Diesel Generator out of service was received.

Testing continued throughout the remainder of the month.
