Regulatory Guide 1.33, Revision 2, February 1978, Appendix A, requires, in part, that general procedures for the control of maintenance should be prepared.
- Also, maintenance that can affect performance of safety-related equipmant should be performed in accordance with written procedures, documented instructions, or drawings appropriate to the circumstances.
Maintenance Management Procedure 1.0, Revision 13, dated April 21, 1988, covers control of maintenance at McGuire using the work request form and states that "Activities under categories I and II above shall require a work request". Category II work includes adjustment of equipment.
Contrary to the above, maintenance personnel adjusted the fuel racks on the 2A diesel generator on May 23, 1988, to increase the diesel generator output without a work request or a procedure.
This was done when operations found that the load on the 2A diesel could nat be raised to 4400 KW ns required by procedure PT/2/A/4200/36A, DG 2A 24 Hour Run.
This is a Severity Level IV (Supplement 1) violation and applien to Unit 2 only.
