SUBJECT:
Interim Report - DER 85-28 A 50.55(e) Potentially Reportable Deficiency Relating to CE Instrument Rack Flexible Conduit Installation File: 85-019-026; D.4.33.2
REFERENCE:
Telephone Conversation between R. C. Sorensen and T. P. Siegfried on August 21, 1985
Dear Sir:
The NRC was notified of a potentially reportable deficiency in the referenced telephone conversation. At that time, it was estinnted that a determination of reportability would be made within thirty (30) days, (September 20, 1985).
Due to the extensive investigation and evaluation required, an Interim Report! is attached. It is now expected that this information will be finalized by October 11, 1985, at which time a complete report will be subnitted.

r INTERIM REPORT - DER 85-28 POTENTIAL REPORTABLE DEFICIENCY ARIZONA NUCLEAR POWER PROJECT PVNGS UNIT 2, 3 1.
PorENTIAL PROBLEM C-E Letter V-CE-32386 indentified problems with Unit 2 Service Air flexible stainless steel conduit installations on the C-E supplied instrument racks. Approximately 50 percent of the conduit installations do not neet mininun conduit bend radius specification of 1.67 inch at centerline of the conduit.
Seventeen (17) flex conduits have been damaged to the extent that the inner conduit tubing was broken.
Additionally, approximately 20-30 percent of the nuts on the service air fittings were found to be loose. Three of the conduits were found to be canpletely disconnected from the fittings. Unit 1 conduit was not Service Air Supplied and, therefore,this does not apply to Unit 1.
II.
APPROACH 'IO AND STATUS OF PROPOSED RESOLUTION Bechtel Engineering is currently studying this problem to determine reportability and technical justification for corrective action.
Bechtel is evaluating the impact ofinstrument failure in respect to reactor control and design requirements.
Bechtel review of APS caments (received Septenber 11, 1985) is ongoing.

PROJECTED COMPLETION OF CORRECTIVE ACTION AhD SUBMITTAL OF THE FINAL REPORT
'Ihe complete evaluation and final repre are forecast to be completed by October 11, 1985.
