2. Site Tour

The NRC inspector toured the reactor building, control room and auxiliary

building for Units 1 and 2 to observe construction in progress and to

inspect housekeeping.

No violations or deviations were identified.

3. Observation of Safety-Related Electrical Equipment

The NRC inspector selected several examples of electrical equipment and

components for examination. The examination consisted of verifying that

the field installation agreed with applicable design drawings and that

separation and protection requirements were being met. The following

equipment and components were inspected:

o 125 VDC Battery Charger (CIDJBC047G)

o 125 VDC Battery Charger (BIDJBCD47E)

o 125 VDC Battery Charger (DIDJBC047D)

o 120 VAC Distribution Panel CIVADP002)

o -120 VAC Distribution Panel DIVADP1202)

o Electrical Penetration - 3E261EEP0047

o Electrical Penetration - 3E261EEP0054

o Electrical Penetration - 3E261EEP0061

The NRC inspector visually inspected the electrical equipment and

components listed above. During this visual inspection, the NRC inspector

found one deficiency. The 120 VAC Distribution Panel identified as

3E241EDP001 had been signed off as completed according to installation

records. All required documentation indicated that this panel was

completely installed. However, a review of "as built" drawing

14926-4363-00001, Revision 5 (S.0.5647-C1) indicated that the referenced

panel had not been properly inspected to verify that field welds were

installed in accordance with instructions.

This is an apparent violation of Criterion X of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B

(498/8604-01).

4. Review of Safety-Related Electrical Equipment Records

The NRC inspector reviewed Bechtel and EBASCO quality assurance (QA)

inspection reports to determine whether adequate documentation existed to

control electrical equipment activities in the following areas:

(a) receipt inspection and storage, (b) handling and in-process

installation, and (c) qualification and training of craft personnel,

a. Receipt Inspection and Storage

The NRC inspector examined Bechtel QA documentation pertaining to the

receipt inspection and storage of electrical equipment. The records

examined appeared adequate to ensure that incoming electrical

equipment conforms to purchase specifications, and is properly stored

to protect against construction damage and adverse environmental

conditions. The documents and records examined are listed below:

o P.O.-14926-4362 - Class 1E 120 VAC Distribution Panels,

In the areas reviewed the records confirmed that:

(1) Identification appears on electrical components and receiving

documentation.

(2) Physical conditions (such as damage, deterioration, etc.) were

identified and documented.

(3) Nonconforming component items placed in storage were identified

as required.

pertaining to'the handling and in process installation of electrical

equipment. The documents examined appeared adequate to ensure that

current procedures and specifications are being used by craftsmen.

craft personnel associated with the installation of electrical

components and equipment. The records were reviewed to ascertain

whether the craft personnel records were complete and up-to-date and

whether the craft personnel were qualified for their duties at the

time of the inspections.

No violations or deviations were identified.

5. Exit Interview

Failure to Properly Inspect

,

Criterion X of Appendix B to 10 CFR Part 50 requires that activities

affecting quality be subjected to an inspection program to verify

conformance with the documented instructions, procedures and drawings for

, accomplishing the activity. This requirement is amplified by the approved

Quality Assurance Plan Description (QAPD) for the South Texas Project. -

i0.

,,. QCP 10.15, Revision 3, paragraph 5.2.3.B states that the Quality Control

Inspector (QCI) shall verify all field welds required have been inspected

and accepted by recording the completed acceptable welding inspection

is report number on the installation inspection package.

Contrary to the above, the weld configuration on Panel 3E241EDP001

is- differed from the weld configuration shown on "as built" drawing

14926-4362, indicating that the panel installation had not been properly

inspected to verify that the field welds were in accordance with

n instructions.

This is a Severity Level IV violation (Supplement IE) (498/8604-01).
