EDELMAN October 10, 1984 VICE PRESIDENT NUCLEA R Mr. James G. Keppler Regional Administrator, Region III Office of Inspection and Enforcement U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission 799 Roosevelt Road Glen Ellyn, Illinois 60137 RE: Perry Nuclear Power Plant Docket Nos. 50-440; 50-441 Power Lead Gland Assemblies Supplied by Conax [RDC 114(84)]
Dear Mr. Keppler:
This letter serves as an interim report pursuant to 10CFR50.55(e) concerning Power Lead Gland Assemblies furnished by Conax which may suffer from a loss of electrical continuity. Our evaluation of this condition, per Deviation Analysis Report 201, was first reported by Mr. P. Martin of The Cleveland Electric Illuminating Company to Mr. James McCormick-Barger of your office on Septembar 14, 1984.
Ti is report contains a description of the deficiency and the planned course of action for completion of our evaluation for significance.
Description of Deficiency Conax supplied eight hundred twenty-one (821) power lead gland assemblies to the Perry Nuclear Power Plant (PNPP), Units 1 and 2, under procurement speci-fication 793 12.
On August 31, 1984, Conax filed a 10CVR21 report with the Nuclear Regulatory Commission concerning the power lead gland assemblics, Conax part numbers 7D92-11000-01 through 7D92-11000-04, 7D92-11001-01 through 7D92-11001-05, supplied to PNPP, and N-11150-01 and N-11151-01, supplied to Vermont Yankee Nuclear Plant. The nature of the defect is a potential loss of electrical continuity, as a result of a gradual reduction in the cross-sectional area of the conductors in the internal sealant area of the gland which could eventually lead to total conductor separation.
Further investigatien by our Project Organization revealed that 338 power lead gland assemblies are in various stages of installation on Unit 1, with the remainder located in the PNPP warehouse.
