Idontification of Occurrence:

Setpoint shift on RiiR loop selection jet pump ricer 4 P switch dPIS-3-2-129C..

Conditions. Prior to Occurrence:

Unit

~4 _op e r nt i n - at 8 k 7, p o v e_r.

Doceripti'on of' occurrence:-

During routine instru=ent surveillance testing, dPIS-3-2-129C vais found to trip at.1 7 psid.

The Technical Specification. limit is 0 5 <,p < 1 5.

Doci6na, tion of Apparent' Cause of Occurrence:

This switch is nubject to a constant cyclic act. ion due to the normal pre,scure differene.es. betvcen the j et pump loops.

This action plus the lou differential. pressure range that this switch,cust respond to unkes it..pronc to setpoint,dirft, the apparent cauce of this occurrence.

Anc. lysis of Occurrence:

The Jet,pu=p riser A P is. used in the LPCI loop selection in a one out of Av.o twice logic.

Because.the setpoint was found to be only = lightly outoide the Technical Specification limits, the'cafety implications of thic occurrence are considered minimal.

03rrective Acti-on :

The switch was immediately calibrated and checked for proper operation par the applicable: surveillance t e s t...

[ciluroDnta:

Previous failures of this type have been, reported an abnormal occurrence 50-277-73-16, 50-276-74-21, 50-277-7L-52 and 50-278-74-LO.
