ppp i t "M Docket No. 99900224/83-01 Bailey Controls Company a McDermott company ATTN: Mr. M. A. Keyes President 29801 Euclid Avenue Wickliffe, Ohio 44092 Gentlemen:

This refers to the inspection conducted by Mr. L. B. Parker of this office on February 14-18, 1983, of your facilities at Wickliffe and Eastlake, Ohio, associated with the fabrication and the equipment qualification testing of sensor and control systems and to the discussions of our findings with Mr. G. M. Kohl and members of<your staff at the conclusion of the inspection.

This inspection was made as a result of:

(1) a 10 CFR Part 50.55(e) report by Consumers Pcwer Co.npany concerning wiring errors in the emergency core cooling actuation system at Midland Nuclear Plant, Units 1 and 2; (2) a 10 CFR Part 50.55(e) report by the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) concerning stress cracked and glued connectors and support brackets used for printed subcircuit boards in the plug in modules of the reactor protection system and the engineered safety features actuation system at Bellefonte Nuclear Plant, Units 1 and 2; and (3) a 10 CFR Part 50.55(e) report by TVA concerning blown fuse alarms in aux-iliary control circuits at Sequoyah Nuclear Plant, Unit 2 and Watts Bar Nuclear Plant, Units 1 and 2.

In conjunction with the foregoing, an inspection of the equipment ' qualification program was conducted which consisted of:

(1) a review of the quality assurance procedure manual and supplementary manuals and proce-dures; and (2) the verification of the implementation of the QA requirements and l

procedures.

In this part of the inspection all 18 criteria of 10 CFR Part 50, l-Appendix B were covered.

1 This inspection was made to confirm that in the areas inspected your QA program is being effectively implemented. The inspection effort is not designed to assure that unique quality requirements imposed by a customer are being achieved; nor to assure that a specific product, component, or service provided by you to your customers is of acceptable quality. As you know, the NRC requires each of its licensees to assume full responsibility for the quality of specific products, components, or services procured from others. You chould, therefore, not conclude that the NRC's inspection exempts you from inspections by an NRC licensee or his agents, nor from taking effective corrective action in response to their findings.
