APPENDIX A NOTICE OF VIOLATION Northeast Nuclear Energy Company Docket No. 50-423 Millstone Unit 3 License No. NPF-49 As a' result of the equipment qualification inspection of March 14-18, 1988, and in accordance with NRC Enforcement Policy (10 CFR 2, Appendix C), the following violation was identified:

10 CFR 50.49 paragraph (f) requires that electrical equipment important to safety must be qualified by test and/or analysis.

Contrary to the above, on March 18,1988, the NRC identified Raychem cable splices installed in safety-related EQ equipment that did not meet the requirements in'that the heat shrink tubing was applied over braided cable jacketing. This was not a qualified configuration prior to the time of new test data, dated March 1987, which determined the 4 splices were qualified.

This is a Severity Level IV violation, Supplement I.
