FINAL REPORT - REVISION 1 - DER 82-37 DEFICIENCY EVALUATION 50.55(e)

ARIZ0MA PUBLIC SERVICE COMPANY-(APS)

PVNGS UNITS 1, 2, 3 1

I.

Description of-Deficiency As requested by an.NRC inquiry, the operating pressure to hydraulic crimping tools used for electrical terminations were checked in accordance with the vendor'a instructions.

MP Hydraulic Puep Crimping Tools catalog no. 69120 were found to be operating at 4500 psi which in less than 8000 pai as specified by AMP in their Customer Manual CM1950. This condition was considered questionable because of the uncertainty as to whether the electrical terminations were adequately crimped to annure safety related functions.

No program has been initiated to assure correct tool usage, assure periodic maintenance for these hydraulic crisp units (22), or provide traceability of specific tool applications used in conjuction with the log termination on wire sizes 2/0 through 750 MCM.

AMP Special Industrien han reviewed this condition and han conducted conclusive testing (see attachments A, B, C & D) on samples taken from the ANPP jobsite.

Sample wire sizes 2/0, 4/0, 250 MCM, 350 MCM i

and 700 MCM were terminated by Bechtel site people at (1) 4500 psi and (2) 3200 pai and forwarded to vendor for tensile strength tents. The vendor also performed Mil-volt drop testing on additional wire samples of the same sizes but which were terminated by the vendor at 4500 pai and 8200 psi crisp pressures.

The results of the tennile strength tents (nummarized in Table I attached) demonstrates that ANPP samples crimped at 4500 psi well exceeded UL-486A and Military specification MIL-T-7928G requirements.

The Mil-volt drop tests show that little volt drop difference occurs when injecting amperes through termination luga crimped at pressures ranging from 8200 - 4500 psi. The results of these tests are summarized in Table II attached.

Although the tents were not performed at ampere loads provided in the MIL-T 7928G Stendard the corresponding voltage dropa for the maximum allowed wire ampacity figures, per Project Design Calteria (slightly higher than the tested values) are not expected to exceed the Maximum allowed by the MIL-T 7928G Standard. It is therefore concluded that the wire misen 2/0 - 750 MCM that were crimped with lugs by AMP Tool crimp. pressures of 4500 - 8200 psi are adequate for the intended purpose.

Mr. T. W. Bishop ANPP-29987 Page Two II.

Analysis of Safety Implications This condition as described in Section I does not present a safety significant condition. However, it is evaluated as reportable under the requirements of 10CFR50.55(e) because this condition represents a breakdown in the Quality Assurance Program. The lack of surveillance to ensure compliance with established vendor requirements for proper crimping in accordance with the electrical specification (13-EM-306) is conaidered an extensive deviation an defined by the regulation.

III. Corrective Action Werk Plant Procedure / Quality Coatrol Instruction 255.0 has been revised to require that a maintenance and check program for the hydraulic crisp units be implemented. This procedure is applicable to Units 1, 2, and 3.

Each Hydraulic Crisp Unit shall be serialized to allow traceability of tool application, to ensure that terminations are performed at specified crimping pressures and that correct dies have been utilized in accordance with the vendor's instruction an outlined in their Customer Manual CM1950 and telex dated 3/19/84 (attach Jent D).

All future lug terminations for the subject wire sizes shall therefore be crimped at a minimum of 7900 pai. The serial no. will he included on each applicable EE-580 card.

The referenced NCR will be dispositioned ust -as-is siner, the terminations already completed are adequate.

Attention: B'll Saylor Subj ect : Millivolt Drop on Cable Terminations: 2/0, 4/0, 250, 350, 500 s 700 Terminated at:

8200 P.S.I. & 4500 P.S.I.

Dear Bill,

The tests conducted at AMP Environmental Lab, Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, are attached.

As mentioned in the subject of this memo, we ter-inated six (6) cable sizes supplied by you with the Hydraulic Unit set at 2200 P.S.I. and the same amount of samples terni,ated at 4500.P.S.I.

As you will notice by the report, there was little difference between the two (2). The test currents used are those defined in the MIL-T-7928G Specification. This report along with the Tensile data previously submitted to you, I hope will be o' great val Je.

There is no charge for these two (2) test reports.

I am sorry for any inconvenience you have encountered and hope we can main-tain a good customer / vendor relationship and continue to supply you with high quality products.

Should you have any coments or questions regarding these test reports, please contact me at your convenience.

Regards, AMPSpicA1.INDUTRIES
