,o REVISION NUMBER: 8 ses PAGE 2 0F 15 I. INTRODUCTION Eight concerns (categorized below) were evaluated at Sequoyah Nuclear Plant (SQN) as a result of the generic applicability determination resulting from the Watts Bar Nuclear Plant (WBN) Employee Concern Task Group (ECTO) Element Report Conduit C019201, within the Construction Category.
IN-85-512-003 Quality of Conduit Materials IN-85-512-002 IN-85-3414001. ' Torquing of Flexible Conduit Couplings OW-85-007-608';Sec.? ,
IN-85-138-001 Condulet Cover Installation IN-85-201-003 Excessive Conduit Bends IN-85-856-004 EX-85-066-002 No related site specific concerns were identified. Due l to the Browns Ferry Nuclear Plant (BFN) ovaluation, flexible l conduit installation deficiencies resulting from the generic l implication of Significant Condition Report (SCR BFNEEB 8632) are lR7 addressed. Also, the generic implication of the WBN-NCR 6529 l related to SNP was evaluated. l II.
SUMMARY
OF PERCEIVED PROBLEMS (a) Quality of conduit material may not be assured at the time of receipt and maintained through proper storage techniques.
(b) Site procedures for the installation of flexible conduit may not I require proper tightening of the couplings which contributes I to loose and damaged flexible condult. Additionally, site lR7 procedures may not have adequately addressed flexible conduit l installations related to seismic and thermal movement nor I minimum bend critoria considerations. l (c) Control rathods may not be in place to prevent dirt and debris from entering conduit bodies while condulet and pull box covers, etc., are removed.
(d) Allowable cable side wall pressures may have been exceeded resulting from excessive conduit bends between pull points.

(c) Sequoyah Standard Practice SQA-45, Revision 21 stated "The power stores and QA staff supervisor are responsible for the receipt and receipt inspection as defined in AI-11 (reference paragraph 17.D. page 59). Additionally, paragraph 19.D page 59 states, " Handling, storage, and shipping shall be in accordance with the requirements of AI-36."
(d) Administrative Instruction AI-11, revision 37 stated "PSU clerks shall receive non-QA, and/or non-CSSC items." No guidelines.are established to describe what constitu,tes, ace.eptable material or what actions are to be performes if defective materia.ls.areidelivered, i.e.; .
over, short,5 substitu'te, damaged, or defective (OSSD or D) items.
(e) Review of Administrative Instruction AI-36, revision 9, indicated the storage levels as specified are in compliance with the appropriate ANSI Standard (ANSI 45.2.2-1978) and conduit
, bodies are stored as Tubular products which require level D storage.
(f) Discussions with cognizant PSU supervision personnel indicated no quality problems had been identified with conduit or conduit fittings.
(g) Walkdowns with PSU personnel of Level D storage areas for conduit bodies revealed scattered surface oxidation (rust) on some conduit bodies with more severe rusting at the threaded area. Approximately 1 to 2 percent of the conduit bodies were judged not acceptable for installations-assuming the entire length would be installed. The storage area and placement of material were in compliance with the requirements of Level D storage as specified by ANSI 45.2.2-1978.
(h) Discussion with cognizant DNQA personnel indicated receipt inspection was performed per the requirements of AI-11 and surveillance activities were in accordance with the frequencies specified in Surveillance Instruction Letter (SIL-181). Level D storage areas were subject to surveillance activities performed by QA. No known quality problems with conduit or fittings had been identified.

in paragraph 3.2.6 which adequately addresses the tightening-1-
requirements of the flexible conduit coupling.- Verification is performed by QA personnel (Reference paragraph 4.0 item E).

i-(k) Discussions with cognizant Central Staff personnel revealed l SCRBFNEEB8632 to be potentially generic to SQN as related l L to the lack of guidelines for flex conduit installations l
! contained within General Construction Specification (G.C.5) G-_3. l
! The policy memorandum from W. S. Raughley to Those listed dated l
!' , May 14, 1986, was determined to be fully adequate to address the 1 j thermal & seismic flexible conduit issues related to the Code l 4
of Federal Regulation Section (10 CFR 50.49) eine mounted devices. lR7 and all 10 CFR 50.49 equipment, such as motors and chillers, at I a point-6 feet or greater above the floor level. However, floor. l mounted 10 CFR 50.49 equipment at a point less than 6 feet above i
1
' the floor level was not addressed and is considered inadequate l in this respect since a minimum length of 18 inches is required l
' for flexible conduit to allow a one inch movement. No objective l evidence was found which ensures this 18 inch criterion was met l
} during flexible conduit installations. Additional comments related l' i to the W. S. Raughley policy memo are included in paragraph IV.Q. l j of this report. l (1) Discussions with cognizant DNE EE personnel revealed 10 CFR 50.49 floor mounted equipment below a point 6 feet above the floor level
! would be acceptable, provided the flexible conduit minimum length l- is 18 inches, to accommodate one inch movement during a seismic i
event.
(m) Discussions with cognizant DNE EE personnel revealed that before the issue of G.C.S-G40, revision 0, dated August 6, 1975, no minimum length criteria had been established for flex conduit -
) installations. It was noted however, that N2E-860, revision 0 issued November 6, 1973, required a one inch movement with no
- length given. Before this date, G.C.S. G-3 was utilized and
! consequently could have resulted in flexible conduit installations j which do not conform to the requirements of G.C.S G-40 nor i the 18-inch minimum length criteria for floor mounted l 10 CFR 50.49 equipment.

guidelines.for the craft to assure that damaged or defective conduit components are not installed.
(o) . Discussions with cognizant M&A engineering and craft supervision indicated recognition of the need for procedural clarification in regard to covering all openings in the conduit run by
'either permanent and/or temporary means. Additionally, it was
~
recognized that paragraph 3.1.1 of M&AI-6 should contain a precaution.to thefinstaller not to exceed 360 degree accLaulations of bondse betweenzpull, points in_the c~onduit body, and verification should be performed by QA personnel. It was also noted that no forma 1' training by TVA was in place to ensure the craft were familiar with the G-40-requirements and good practice methods to prevent the installation of damaged or defective conduit components.
(p) Discussion with cognizant DNE EE Unit Conduit and Grounding Group
, revealed that walkdowns controlled by Special Naintenance Instruction SMI-0-317-32 were performed by SQN to identify excessive conduit bends. A sample of 16 worst-case conduits using the criteria of multiple bends (>360'), long lengths,' elevation changes, and conduit overfill (>30% full) were chosen for evaluation. No conclusive evidence has been documented to show that sidewall pressure'or pull tension criteria has been violated at this time.
(q) As a result of the NRC review of Element Report C019201-SQN, Rev. 6 l entitled, " Conduit", additional evaluation was deemed necessary to l determine the adequacy of the' implementation of the requirements of l
_M&AI-6, Rev. 6 in regard to the tightening requirements of flexible l conduit couplings. l I
During an NRC Safety System Outage Modification Inspection performed I during December of 1986 and January of 1987, several flexible lR7 conduit connections were determined to be loose or improperly l installed and are to be considered as findings or observations l l
contained in Inspection Reports 50-327,328/86-68. l l
Since the established program for flexible conduit installations l (M&AI-6, Rev. 6) requires torquing of the flexible conduit coupling l
[ per the manufacturer's instructions and verification was performed l by QA/QC personnel, the implementation of the established program l I was questioned. l l

not been utilized during the installation of. Thomas & Betts .
l flexible conduit assemblies. The specific. violation noted, resulted l :

I must be made to identify and correct these deficiencies. Since l the established program requires the preparer of the Work Plan, l l or Work Release / Maintenance Request to specify the installation i L
criteria, the manufacturer's instructions should be made available 1 i to the preparer for inclusion into the appropriate work control l documentation. Training of the appropriate personnel (craft, l
- engineering, and inspection) should be-given to ensure the 1 c.

4 A review of Special Maintenance Instructions SMI-0-317-33. Rev. 1, I a
' dated 08/11/86 entitled "Walkdown Procedure for Identifying Flexible 1 Conduit Connections in Violation of General Construction l Specification Cumber G-40" was performed and conversations with I g Central Staff DNE Personnel were conducted to determine if the 1 i tightening requirements for flexible conduit assemblies were I t verified during the walkdown activity. The results of the review l and conversations indicated the primary purpose of the walkdown l
.(SMI) was to assure that installed flexible conduits have adequate l .
lengths for thermal and seismic movement for installed Class 1E l l equipment and devices on the 10 CFR 50.49 list in response to the- l l
i generic implications raised for the WBN NCR-6529. The preparer l E
of the SHI established the requirements of the instruction primarily l as directed by the W. S. Raughley memo, dated 05/14/86, titled. l 4 " Electrical Issues - Flexible Conduit." The following comments 1 :
, are submitted: l
- I
- a. The W.'S. Raughley memo, dated 5/14/86 does not fully address I the generic implication of the WBN-NCR 6529. Instructions were l not prescribed to identify and resolve flexible conduit minimum l band radius violations nor to ensure other aspects of flexible l conduit assemblies (such as torquing per the manufacturer 1 instructions) were adequate. Additionally, 10 CFR 50.49 floor l

- b. Even though the Policy memo discussed above did not address I the minimum bend radius of the flexible conduit assembly, the l preparer of the SMI defined a deficiency as any condition l found that is outside the limitations defined in Attachment 1 l (Ref. para 3.3) and directions were_given to the walkcown l personnel to document these deficiencies (Ref. para 5.3.1.a). l Contrary to the above requirements, the flexible conduit l assemblies were not inspected for minimum bend radius violations l per Table 3.2.6-1 of Attachment 1. The walkdown program did IR7 include 10 CFR 50.49 equipment less than 6 feet _ l above the floor which was evaluated for thermal / seismic l movement , considerations even though this issue was not I addressed in the above mentioned Raughley memo. l l- ? u. * , . . .

- c. The walkdown performed did not include the verification of l torquing of the flexible conduit coupling per the l manufacturer's instructions. l
Conclusions:
(a) No guidelines are established in AI-11 to define what constitutes acceptable conduit and fitting material or what actions are to be taken if defective materials are delivered. No quality problems with conduit or conduit fittings have been documented,'therefore.
Employee Concerns IN-85-512-002 and IN-85-512-003 were determined to be not factual.
(b) M&AI-6, revision 6, the controlling procedure for conduit system installation, adequately addresses flexible conduit coupling tightening requirements. M&AI-6 is inadequate by not requiring the lR7 installation of condulet or pull box covers to prevent dirt or debris from entering the conduit between cable pulling activities.
Employee Concern IN-85-138-001 was considered factual. M&AI-6 is also inadequate by not containing instructions to the craft to prevent the installation of damaged or defective conduit components.

REVISION NUMBER: 8 PAGE 11 0F 15 (d) It was concluded that conduit runs containing more than 360* of accumulated bends between pull points were installed at SQN.
Therefore, the Employee Concerns IN-85-201-003, IN-85-856-004, and EX-85-066-002 are considered to be factual. DNE is evaluating the findings established during the walkdowns governed by SMI-0-317-32.
Reference SQN Element Report C010900 for further details.
(e) M&AI-6, revision 6 does not include provisions to cover all openings in the conduit runs, by either permanent or temporary means, to prevent dirt and debris from entering the conduit body and is considered inadequate in this area. Additionally, no installer of the conduit run exists which prevents precaution exceeding-360 to,ths'.ee.
d,egr accumulations of bends between pull points within the conduit; body.- No qualitylassurance inspection exists, which ensurss excessfve bend criteria are not violated.
Employee Concerns IN-85-138-001, IN-85-201-003, IN-85-856-004 and EX-85-066-002 are valid because of the controlling procedure deficiencies noted above. Reference Construction Category C010900 Element Report for SQN for details on DNE's evaluation of sidewall pressure tests and multiple bend criteria results and details on SQN's walkdowns.
V. ROOT CAUSE (a) AI-11 was inadequate in that nonsafety-related items were being received by nontechnical personnel without guidelines-established to require the examinations which detect burrs, sharp edges, flattened threads or irregularities detrimental to the installation of cables during pulling activities. The apparent cause of this deficiency is management oversight resulting from the lack of awareness that defective "nonsafety-related" items such as conduits and fittings may have a direct impact on plant operation or safety-related features such as cables.
-(b) Because of an oversight by the DNE preparer / reviewer or the lack of consideration for the required Safe Shutdown Earthquake and interface movement criteria, General Construction Specification, G-3 did not provide guidance for installing flexible conduit offsets, lengths, and thermal / seismic movement allowances.
The attempt to correct the movement criteria for floor mounted equipment as contained in Sequoyah Specific Construction Specification N2E-860 was inadequate in that the movement criteria for this floor mounted equipment as established by DNE, contained-insufficient qualifying instructions for utilization during installation. In conclusion, the design criteria were not established or conveyed to the responsible construction organization in a manner which would ensure the proper installation of flexible conduit assemblies.

(b) (continued)-
The need for establishment of these specific criteria may not I have been recognized by DNE personnel. It should also be noted l that the established program for generic applicability. I determination is deficient or weak in.that significant conditions I such as those identified on SCR BFN EEB 8632 (related to this I issue) remained unidentified at other plants largely because of lR7 this generic applicability determination being performed by the l initiating organization with limited knowledge of the I generic: implications.. Similar weaknesses were also noted in the l CAR (SQ-CAR-87013)'and re-evaluation related to significance and , l generic applicability was determined necessary. I i- . .
(c) DNE specification writers had not recognized the importance j of establishing a procedural control program to prevent dirt and debris from entering the conduit or to ensure good .
workmanship practices were utilized during conduit installation.
, This type of requirement should have been a part of the specification in use at all TVA sites.
(d) Because of the lack of understanding of/or an oversight by the, preparer and reviewer, General Construction Specification G-40 issued by DNE did not restrict conduit bends in excess of 360 degrees between cable pull points as required by the National Electric Code. This action resulted in inadequate installation criteria supplied to DNC which allowed the potential for excessive bends between pull points to' exist during conduit system
. installation. Reference Construction Category C010900 Element Report for SQN.

and backfit as required. SCR W-577-R was written on March 3, 1987 l and will assure that proper corrective action is taken. l
- I CATD 19201-SQN-07-CAR-87013 has been reevaluated by Electrical l Modifications and QA and we concur that this is a nonsignificant l condition. .We do feel that this CAR should have been sent out to all' l~
active TVA nuclear sites for generic applicability and have requested I the Quality Sys,tems- Branch' to initiate. l Engineerijhasidetemibedtheljguidtightflexibleconnector ,
manufacturersi by brand name, that have furnished connectors for SQN. l l
Technical.information on torquing requirements were obtained. This I research indicated that the manufacturers recommend adherence to UL -l
- 514B requirements for torquing because the connectors are UL approved l
- . per those tests. l_
lR8 G-40 or appropriate engineering requirement specifications will be l revised to add a table of torque values (as shown in UL 514B) for I flexible conduit fittings to be used for future installations. l Regarding current installations, no corrective action will be required l .
based on.the plant's maintenance history. The lack of torque values l 1' has not been shown to be a significant problem. We conclude that this l work is not a restart item. Estimated design completion date for this l activity is October 1987. l 1
M&AI-6 will be revised to incorporate changes to G-40. Affected' site l personnel will be trained on the site procedure revisions. l 4 .
l CATD 19201-SQN-08 During the performance of SMI-0-317-33, Rev. 1, the l bend radius requirement was inadvertently omitted. After further l
, study, we have decided to eliminate this requirement from the l procedure. Flexible metal conduit provides only mechanical protection I for cables and no failures have to date been attributed to bend radius I violations. Also, in general the seismicity of the equipment does not l depend on the bend radius of the flex. conduit as 1 me ss there is l adequate movement (which we have assured) and the flex conduit does l not exceed 6'-0". Based on the above, we conclude that this work is l not a restart item. After plant restart, a flex bend radius I sampling (per MIL STD 105D) will be performed. Estimated completion I date for this activity is October 1987. l
-' 'TVA EMPLOYEE CONCERNS REPORT NUMBER: C019201-SQN
. SPECIAL PROGRAM REVISION NUMBER: 8 PAGE 15 0F 15 VII. GENERIC APPLICABILITY Violations in cable side wall pressure because of excessive conduit bends are potentially generic to BLN and BFN.
Additionally, the lack of inspection requirements for condulet cover installations, flexible conduit couplings, and quality of conduit materials are potentially generic to BLN and BFN.
Issues pertaining to Flexible Conduit Configuration as described in SCR BFN EEB 8632 may be generically applicable to WBN.
