RESPONSE TO IE BULLETIN 83 ELECTRICAL CIRCUIT BFEAKERS WITH AN UNDERVOLTAGE TRIP FEATURE IN USE IN SAFETY-RELATED APPLICATIONS OTHER THAN THE REACTOR TRIP SYSTEM IE Bulletin 83-08, " Electrical Circuit Breakers With An Undervoltage Trip Feature In Use In Safety-Related Applications Other Than The Reactor Trip System," dated December 28, 1983, requested licensees to:
1.
identify the safety-related applications of circuit breakers with an undervoltage trip feature and the systems in which they are used; 2.
review the adequacy of the design, testing and maintenance of the breakers in light of their operating experience and the information conveyed by the bulletin; and, 3.
evaluate the need to take corrective measures to ensure proper operation of the breakers.
The results of Consumers Power Companys investigation has shown that there are no safety-related applications of W type DB, W type DS, or GE type AK-2 circuit breakers nor are there any safety-related applications of circuit breakers with an underyc1tage trip feature by other manufacturers at the Palisades Plant. The actions required by items 2 and 3 ef IE Bulletin 83-08 are therefore not applicable.
