Quad-Citics Nucinar Power Station, : Unit 2, Docket No.

50-265..DPR-30, Appendix A, Sections 1. 0. A.1, 2.1. A.1, 6.6.B.1.a.

Dear Mr..'Keppler:

The purpose of this letter is to provide you with notification.of

.an Abnormal occurrence as required by Technical specification

-6.'6.B.1.a swithin"24. hours of the occurrenco.

The Unit.2 APRM-RBM reference flows.were found to be.approximately 7$ greater than the indicated percent.of rated -core flow.

A core flow calibration' verified the accuracy of the indicated core flow.

. A check.of the. drive flow transmitter calibrations, which requires 1/2...soram, will..be performed at the earliest. opportunity.

.In

.athe interim, the, gains of the total edrive flow proportional.ampli-fiers (2"260-BA and B) chave been adjusted so that the. APRM refer-ence. flows correspond to the ' core flow.

This lends the required

. conservatism to the flow biased trip settings until further in-vestigation determines the :cause of the instrument drift.

This. occurrence was discussed ;by telephone with Mr.. Jordan of your office on October :25,1974.

Further ~information.will be. pro-l vided by. Abnormal Occurrence 1 Report AO S0-265/74-26.which will be ' submitted..within 10. days.cof the -date :of ~.this. occurrence.
