4.18 STEAf4 GENERATOR TUBING SURVEILLANCE Applicability-Applies to the surveillance of tubing of each steam generator.

Objective To ensure integrity of the steam yens ator tubing through a defined inservice surveillance program, and to

  • nimize exposure of personnel to radiation during performance of the surveillance program.

Specification 4.18.1 Baseline Inspection The first steam generator tubing inspection performed according to Specifications 4.18.2 and 4.18.3.a shall be considered as constituting the baseline condition for subsequent inspections.

4.18.2 Examination tiethods Inservice inspection of steam generator tubing shall include nondestructive-examination by eddy-current testing or other equivalent techniques.

The in-spection equipment shall provide a sensitivity that will detect defects with a penetration of 20 percent or more of the minimum allowable as-manufactured tube wall thickness.

.4.18.3 Selection and Testing The steam generator sample size is specified in Table 4.18.1.

The steam generator tube minimum sample size, inspection result classification, and the corresponding action required shall be as specified in Table 4.18.2.

The inservice inspection of steam generator tubes shall be performed at_the frequencies specified.in Specification 4.18.4 and the inspected tubes shall be verified acceptable per the acceptance criteria of Specification 4.18.5.

The tubes selected for each inservice inspection shall include at least 3%

of the total number of tubes in both steam generators; the tubes selected for these inspections shall be selected on a random basis except:

.a.

The first sample inspection during each inservice inspection (sub-sequent to the baseline inspection) of each steam generator shall include:

1.

All nonplugged tubes that previously had detectable wall penetrations (>20%), and 2.

At least 50% of the tubes inspected shall be in those areas where experience has indicated potential problems, except where specific groups are inspected per Specification 4.18.3.a.3.

Amendment No. 24, A7, 86 110j

i,.

A-tube inspection'(pursuant to Specification 4.18.5.a.8) shall be 1

performed on'each selected tube..If any selected tube does not permit the passage _of the eddy current probe.for a tube inspection, this shall be recorded and an adjacent tube shall be selected and subjected to a tube inspection.

I 3.

Tubes in the following groups may be excluded from the first j

. random sample if all tubes in a group in both steam generators are inspected.

The inspectio'n may be concentrated on those portions of the tubes where imperfections were previously found.

No credit will be taken for these tubes in meeting minimum sample size requirements.

Where only a-portion of the. tube is inspected, the remainder of the tube

~

will be subjected to the random inspection.

-)

(1) Group A-1:

Tubes within one, two or three rows of the open inspection lane.

(2) Group A-2: deleted (3) Group A-3:. Tubes in the wedge-shaped group on either side of the lane region (Group A-1) as defined by Figure 4.18.1.

b.

The second and third sample inspections during each inservice in-spection as required by Table 4.18.2 may be less than a full tube inspection by concentrating the. inspection on those areas of the tube sheet array and on those portions of the tubes where tubes l

with imperfections were previously found.

The results of_each sample inspection shall be classified into one of the following three categories:

Category Inspection Results C-1 f

Less than 5% of the total tubes inspected are degraded tubes and none of the in-spected tubes are defective.

C-2 One or more tubes, but not more than 1%

of the total tubes inspected, are de-fective, or between 5% and 10% of the total tubes inspected are degraded tubes.

C-3 More than 10% of the total tubes in-spected are degraded tubes or more than 1% of the inspected tubes are defective.

-NOTES:

'(1) LIn-all inspections, previously degraded tubes must

. exhibit significant (>10%) further wall penetrations to be included in the above percentage calculations.

(2)-Wherespecialinspectionsare'perf[rmedpursuantto 4.18.3.a.3,. defective or degraded tubes found as a result of the inspection shall be included in determining the Inspection Results Category for that special inspection but need not'be included in i

determining the Inspection Results Category for the general steam generator inspection.

4.18.4 Inspection. Intervals

.The above-required inservice inspections of steam generator tubes.shall be performed at the following frequencies:

a.

The baseline inspection shall be' performed during the first-refueling shutdown.

Subsequent inservice inspections shall be performed at intervals of not less than 10 nor more than 24 calendar months after the previous inspection.

If the results of two consecutive inspections for a given group

  • of tubes following service under all volatile treatment (AVT) conditions fall into the C-1 category or if two consecutive inspections demonstrate that previously observed degradation has r.at continued and no additional degradation has occurred, the inspection interval for that group may be extended to a maximum of 40 months.

b.

If the results of the inservice inspection of a steam. generator performed in accordance with Table 4.18.2 at 40-month intervals for a given group

  • of tubes fall in Category C-3, subsequent inservice inspections shall be performe,d at intervals of not less than 10 nor more than 20 calendar months after the previous inspection.

The increase in inspection frequency shall apply 4

until a subsequent inspection meets the conditions specified in 4.18.4.a and the interval can be extended to 40 months.

c.

Additional unscheduled inservice inspections shall be performed on each steam generator in accordance with the first sample inspection specified in Table 4.18.2 during the shutdown sub-sequent.to any of the following conditions:

1.

Primary-to-secondary leakage in excess of the limits of Specification 3.10 (inservice inspection not required if leaks originate from tube-to-tubesheet welds),

2.

A seismic occurrence greater than the Operating Basis Earthquake,

  • A group of tubes means: (a) All tubes inspected pursuant to 4.18.3.a.3, or (b) All tubes in a steam generator less those inspected pursuant to 4.18.3.a.3.

As used'in this specification:

l1.

Imperfection means an exception to the dimensions, finish or contour of a tube from that' required by fabrication drawings or specifications. -Eddy. current testing indications below 20% of the nominal. tube wall thickness,-if detectable, may be considered as imperfections.

2.

Degradatiod means a service-induced cracking, wastage, wear i

or general corrosion occurring on either,the inside or outside of a tube.

1 3.

Degraded Tube means a' tube containing imper'fections 2 20% of

]

the nominal wall thickness caused by degradation.

4.

% Degradation means the percentage of.the tube wall thickness affected or removed by degradation.

S.

Defect means an imperfection of such severity that it exceeds the plugging limit.

A tube containing a defect is defective.

6.

Plugging Limit means the imperfection depth at or beyond which the tube shall be removed from service because it may become unserviceable prior to the next inspection; it is equal to 40% of the nominal tube wall thickness.

7.

Unserviceable describes the condition of a tube if it leaks or contains a defect large enough to affect its-structural integrity in the event of an Operating Basis Earthquake, a loss-of coolant accident, or a. steam line or feedwater line break as specified in Specification 4.18.4.c.

8.

Tube Inspection means an inspection of the steam generator tube from the point of entry completely to the point of exit.

b.

The steam generator shall be determined operable after completing the corresponding actions (plug all tubes exceeding the plugging limit and all tubes containing through wall cracks) required by Table 4.18.2.

-- Reports -

Following each i service inspection of: steam generator. tubes, the compl e

results of 'the inspection shall be reported to th'e NRC.- This report, to be subm,itted within 45 days of inspection ~ completion, shall include:

-a.

Number and extent of tubes inspected; ti.

. Location 'and. percent of wall-thickness penetration for each--

indication of an imperfection; and Identification'of tubes plugged.

c.

This report shall'be in addition to theLreport of results o'f steam generator s

tube inspections which fall into Category C-3 and which require prompt notification of the NRC per Specification 6.12.3.

Bases The surveillance requirements for inspection of the steam generator tubes ensure that'the structural integrity of this portion of the RCS will be maintained. The program for inservice inspection of steam generator tubes.is i

based on a modification of Regulatory Guide 1.83, Revision 1.

Inservice inspection of steam generator tubing is essential in order to maintain surveillance of the conditions of the tubes in-the event that there is evidencelof mechanical. damage or progressive degr'adation due to design, manufacturing errors, or inservice conditions that lead to corrosion.

4 Inservice inspection of-steam generator tubing also provides a means of characterizing the nature and cause of any tube degradation so that-corrective measures can be taken.
