Licensee Events and Special Reports The following Licensee Event Reports (LER's) were sent during August 1982, to the Assistant Director of Nuclear Power (Operations) for reporting to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.

Unit I LER SUBJECT SQRO-50-327/82093 The ice condenser intermediate deck doors were iced over and would not pass SI-108 (Lift Test) due to a ruptured drain line leaking water.

SQR0-50-327/82094 Diesel generator IA-A was inoperable due to a broken oil sight glass.

SQRO-50-327/82095 A Westinghouse review discovered that an unde-tectable failure could exist in the on-line test system of the solid state protection system (SSPS) due to the possible failure of the switch contacts to close.

SQRO-50-327/82097 The upper containment personnel airlock inner door locking mechanism failed due to a broken pin on the door latch bar connecting red. This was caused by a weld failure during normal operation.

SQRO-50-327/82098 Waste gas decay tank C oxygen concentration indicated 2.74%. This was due to air in-leakage and the monitor was reading high due to a zero shift in the calibration of the indicator.

SQRO-50-327/82099 Refueling water storage tank level channel 1-LT-63-50 failed low due to a faulty circuit board in the transmitter.

SQRO-50-327/82100 AFW automatic control valve 1-LCV-3-174 would not operate in manual due to a leaking diaphragm at the operator flange.

SQRO-50-327/82101 The neutron instrumentation power range channel N41 failed low due to a defective high range power supply.

SQRO-50-327/82102 1Al-A control and auxiliary vent boards tripped rendering various ventilation equipment and rad monitors inoperable. They tripped due to a burned out phase bus link caused by a loose connection.

Licensee Evrnte and Spacial Rrparts Unit 2 LER SUBJECT SQRO-50-328/82096 Safety injection pump 2A-A failed to start due to an improperly locked locking ring on a plug connector in the back of the handswitch.

SQRO-50-328/82103 Pressurizer relief tank level channel 2-LT-68-312C failed due to a malfunction in the loop trans-mitter section. This instrument has been deleted by a Tech Spec change.

SQRO-50-328/82104 Overpower delta temperature channel 2-TI-68-2D failed low due to the resistance to voltage converters having an instrument span shift.

This resulted in the out-of-tolerance indica-tions.

SQRO-50-328/82105 Refueling water storage tank level channel 2-LT-63-52 failed low due to a faulty amplifier card.

Special Reports There were no special reports sent during the month of August.

Offsite Dose Calculation Manual Changes There were no changes to the Sequoyah Nuclear Plant ODCM during August.
