Conanonwealth Ecisonj C'cabany Docket No. 50-373 Docket No. 50-374 f

As a result of the inspection' conducted on February 2-17, 1987, and in i accordance with 10 CFR Part 2, Appendix C - General Statement of Policy and Procedure for NRC Enforcement Actions (1985), the following violation was identified:

10 CFR 50.49 Paragraph (f) requires each item of electrical equipment important to safety to be qualified by testing and/or analysis.

10 CFR 50.49 Paragraph (j) requires a record of the qualification documentation of EQ equipment to be maintained in an auditable form to permit verification that the equipment is qualified for its application and meets its performance requirements during an accident.

Contrary to the above.-the environmental qualification (EQ) Binder LS029 for WEED thermocouples did not include a justification for allowing a WEED t thermocouple to be installed without EQ maintenance activities being implemented. During this review, the NRC inspectors identified one WEED thermocouple 2TE-CM058, whose housing had been opened for maintenance, but for which appropriate maintenance activities specified in the EQ binder had not been implemented. The licensee stated that their failure to perform the maintenance activities in the EQ binders did not affect the environmental qualification of the WEED thermocouple based on the testing of a PYC0 thermocouple; however, the inspectors found no similarity analysis for the PYC0 and WEED thermocouples in EQ binder LS029.

This is a Severity Level IV violation (Supplement ID).

(50-374/87004-03(DRS))
