I EXPANDED AUGMENTED SYSTEM REVIEH AND TEST PROGRAM EVALUATION OF THE 480 VOLT AC DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM

1.0 INTRODUCTION

The Rancho Seco Expanded Augmented System Review and Test Program

[EASRTP] evaluation effort involves an assessment of the effectiveness of the System Review and Test Program [SRTP] and an analysis of the adequacy of ongoing programs to ensure that systems will continue to function properly after restart. The Expanded EASRTP is a detailed system by system review of the SRTP as implemented on 33 selected systems and an in-depth review of the engineering, modification, maintenance, operations, surveillance, inservice testing, and quality programs. It also conducts a review; on a samplir-) basis, of many of the numerous ongoing verification and review programs at Rancho Seco.

Six multi-disciplined teams composed of knowledgeable and experienced personnel are tasked with performing the Expanded EASRTP. Each multi-disciplined team consists of dedicated personnel ,

with appropriate backgrounds to evaluate the operations, maintenance, engineering, and design functional areas.

Independence, perspective, and industry standards provided by team members with consultants, architect engineer and vendor backgrounds are joined with the specific plant knowledge of SMUD team members.

Each team performs an evaluation on a selected system using the same fundamental evaluation techniques employed by the NRC in the EASRTP inspection. System Status Reports are used as the primary source of leads for the teams. They are augmented with references to available source and design bases documents as needed. Team i synergism and communication is emphasized during the process in J order to enhance the evaluation. Each team prepares a report for j each completed selected system evaluated. This report is for the j 480 Volt AC Distribution System. l i

. 2.0 PURPOSE The objectives of the Expanded EASRTP evaluation are to (1)' assess the adequacy of activities and systems:in' support of restart.and (2).

evaluate the effectiveness of established' programs.for' ensuring safety during plant operation'after restart..

I amar i

.3.0 SCOPE To accomplish the first objective, the Power-Systems team evaluated i l the 480 Volt AC Distribution system to determine whether. ,

l 1.. The system was capable of performing the safety functions required by its design bases.

1

2. Testing was' adequate to demonstrate that the system would perform all of the safety functions required.
3. System maintenance.(with emphasis on pumps and valves) was adequate to ensure system operability under postulated accident conditions.  ;
4. Operator and maintenance technician training was, adequate to ensure proper operations and maintenance of -

the system. l

5. Human factors relative to the system and the system's supporting procedures were adequate to ensure proper system operations under. normal and accident conditions.-

To accomplish the second objective, the team reviewed the programs as implemented for the system in the following functional areas:

1. Systems Design and Change Control '
2. Maintenance
3. Operations and Training
4. Surveillance and Inservice Testing
5. Quality Assurance
6. Engineering Programs The team reviewed a number of documents in preparation for and during the Expanded EASRTP evaluation. This list of documents is found in Attachment 6.1.

The primary source of leads for the team were the problems identified in the 480 Volt AC Distribution System Status Report.

Various source documents such as the USAR and Technical Specifications and available design bases documents were reviewed as needed to augment the information needed by the team. l The evaluation of the 480 Volt AC Distribution system included a  !

review of pertinent portions of support systems that must be functional in order for the 480 Volt AC Distribution system to meet its design objectives.

. l L ~ The more significant.. issues identified pertainingLto the adequacy of L

'the SRTP-and the' effectiveness of programs to ensure continued safe-operations after restart are summarized below. The summary focuses'

- on the weaknesses identified during the evaluation. . Attachment 6.3 provides detailed findings:by providing-the Request for Information (RI) forms 'that are used by the Expanded EASRTP teams'to identify

.po6ential concerns during the evaluation. Section 5.0. lists the specific concerns. identified by the teams. The-numbers'in. brackets

.after each individual summary or, concern refer to the corresponding- .

RIs.in: Attachment 6.3. '

4.1 ' Operations

-The Team found instances where the system was operated improperly because Operators were not aware of procedure changes. The-potential exists for overloading' tie lines between 480 Volt Nuclear Service buses because of procedure inadequacies. [RI 262] [RI- 265]

'4.2 ' Maintenance The Team feels-that there is a lack of adequate attention to .

transformer protection. Some protective relays are.not addressed in any procedure and may not be adequately, tested. Alarm setpoints are not adequately addressed and some apptfar to'be set for inappropriate values. Some transformers have no monitoring devices or alarms. No

. program currently identifies all components which must be maintained  !

or periodically changed to maintain the qualified life of I equipment. [RI 2331 [RI 279] [RI 280]

The Team also identified that several circuit breakers have been )

removed from compartments with no documentation of where it was  !

moved and no justification for the deviation from design )

. configuration. [RI 282) j 4.3 Quality Assurance The Team identified several QA concerns with respect to the 480 Volt Distribution System. Concerns identified included: minimal QA involvement, inadequate receipt inspections, inadequate documentation and lack of resolutions to discrepancies. Records of inspectors' training and certifications were also inadequate.

-[RI 267] [RI 261]

. S '. 0 ~ SPECIFIC CONCERNS A list of the specific concerns the Expanded EASRTP team believes are new concerns not previously identified for resolution follows: l 5.1' Acknowledged (Valid) Concerns i 5.1.1 Some changes to control room operating procedures are made without operator awareness. [RI 262]

5.1.2 Inadequacies in procedures could lead to overloading'of tie l lines between nuclear services buses. [RI 265]

5.1.3 Some 480V circuit breakers are removed without adequate documentation leading to a configuration control problem. 1

[RI 282]

4 5.1.4 There is no program which currently addresses replacement of components required to maintain qualification of Westinghouse Motor Control Centers. [RI 279]

5.1.5 Due to lack of correct setpoints and identification numbers-for the instrumentation on station service transformers, there is a potential for. transformer damage along with personnel safety and environmental concerns. [RI 280]

5.1.6 Some flex conduits are not grounded in accordance with procedures. [RI 261]

5.1.7 Sudden pressure relays on Oil Filled Transformers are not adequately addressed. [RI 233]

1 5.1.8 Some switchgear did not receive proper inspection by qualified personnel prior to use in the plant. [RI 267] ,

5.1.9 The Team' feels the corrective actions associated with.

transformer trouble alarms should be completed in a more j timely manner than currently prioritized. [RI 270]

POTENTIAL CONCERN /00ESTION:

1 Sudden Pressure Relays on station service transformers X43A1, X43D1, X43D2 and X43E1 have not been addressed adequately. This creates the potential for subjecting the plant to transients and loss of generation. j

. Maintenance Procedures do not address testing the sudden pressure! f relays. '

. Maintenance Procedures do not address testing required before re-energizing the transformers after a sudden pressure trip. i

. Casualty Procedures C.109, C.115, C.116 and C.117_ do not address the sudden pressure relays and the need for transformer testing prior to re-energization.

. Annunciator procedure for H2ES, windows 09, 43, 60 and 77 do not reflect that the 486 lock-out relay may be activated by the sudden pressure relay. ,

. There is no identification on sudden pressure relay or the reset switch located on the transformer.

. No Calibration Data sheets exist for these relays.

. Per interview, the relays are checked to function but no calibration or set point check is performed. Even the function check is not documented.

TEAM LEADER: TOMMY MARSHALL /3965 POTENTIAL' CONCERN /0UESTION: -

Control Room operators are not always aware of changes made to Plant Operating Manuals, Casualty Procedures, and Administrative Procedures, particularly when the changes are made by Site Document Control Clerks.

-This may. lead to the plant not being operated in accordance with procedures which.could affect plant, personnel,.and equipment safety.

. On.9/15/87 a system walkdown on 480 volt MCC's revealed a Procedure

-Interim Change Notice, PICN-01.had been issued on 7/22/87 for alarm cutout switch operation of MCC's 2A2 -2A3, 2A4, 2B2, 283 and 2B4.

The alarm. cutout switches for MCC's 2B3 and 208 were not in the'-

proper position per PICN-01. The Control Room was informed, an ODR was written for procedure violation of A.59, and the alarm cutout switches were placed in the proper position.

c On 9/22/87 a follow up system walkdown was made and revealed that a Procedure Interim Change Notice PICN-03 had been made to A.59, 480 volt Electrical System, to include additional MCC's 2C8, 2C9, 2D8 and 9/2/87. -Yet alarm cutout switches on MCC 2C9 were not in the proper position per PICN-03. The Control Room was informed, an ODR was written and the alarm cutout switches were returned to the required position.

. On both occasions, the shift supervisors that the 00R's were turned in to didn't know that the new alarm cutout switches were covered by A.59 until they looked at the Procedure Interim Change Notices.

. Fo0Tr separate shift supervisors stated that when SDC clerks place I procedures or changes in Control Room manuals they are not aware of what changes are made.

. Control Room personnel on two different crews when asked said that they didn't know what changes were put in Control Room manuals when SDC clerks made changes.

REQUEST FOR INFORMATION (RI) l RI NO: 162 (Continued) 8 out of 9 Procedure Interim Change Notices and Procedure Temporary I Change Notices placed in Control Room manuals on 9/22/87 were not included in the Procedure Change Section of the Shift Relief Checklists for the shift supervisor, assistant shift supervisor, or  ;

the Control Room operator on the days of 9/22/87, 9/23/87 or 9/24/87. '

. In an interview with an SDC clerk, she confirmed that SDC clerks  !

make manual changes in the Control Room and Control Room personnel I are not informed. When procedures were left to be placed in manuals l before, they would get lost. '

One shift supervisor. referred to a shift when the Reactor Building Purge was to be placed in service. A large amount of time was lost i when the crew discovered that the procedure A.14 has been changed I and had to be reviewed at length prior to starting the purge. If the crew had known-about the change earlier they would have been familiar with the procedure and a short review would have been possible. .This could be serious depending on the system and .

Inadequacies in. Operation Procedure A.59,-480 Volt Electrical' System, .

would lead.to exceeding electrical loading of the tie. lines between 480-volt nuclear service buses.

Tie' lines have been provided between the Auxiliary Building and Nuclear

. Service Electrical building 480 volt nuclear service buses. Draft .

Operation Procedure A.59 does not preclude use of the tie lines but-limits its operation to cold shutdown of the plant. The procedure allows a maximum of,2000 amperes to. flow through the tie lines. This is in excess of. tie lines capacity of.533 amperes as determined-in Calculation Z-EDS-E0117. Rev. 0.

The procedure does not identify how the current flowing through tie lines will be kept below the maximum allowable current since the Control Room does not have capability to monitor. the electrical' load in amperes for 480 volt nuclear service buses.

TRANSFORMER TROUBLE ALARM _

1 NCR# S4322, System Status Report problem #31 covering Nuclear Service  !

transformers X43A2'and X43B2A trouble alarm in the Control Room, was i given a priority 3. status. This appears to be inappropriate in light of i the following:  !

Presently, plant design provides necessary trouble alarms in the Control -

l Room for nuclear service and non-nuclear service transformers located in the auxiliary building and transformer alley. However, no trouble alarms '

exist for the' nuclear service transformers installed in the NSEB. These- .

transformers energize the 480V class 1 buses that provide power to vital. l equipment including; auxiliary feedwater-valves, TDI diesel generator auxiliaries, and essential HVAC units. Previously, tie lines were used to power the 480 volt Nuclear Service Buses in the NSEB from Aux Bldg Nuclear Services buses. However, the proposed' design and technical specification amendment eliminates this tie line during plant operation.

Failure.of these transformers will result in a loss of Nuclear Service c Buses and will place the plant in an LCO condition.  !

Since these transformers are in operation, it is possible that the plant could be placed in an LCO condition if the transformer trouble is not 3 known in time to take necessary action before any 480 volts nuclear i service bus is inoperable because the temperature alarms are not installed. The-temperature alarms will alert the Control Room when the temperature increase caused by winding overheating which is the primary cause of transformer failure.

l During the investigation, it was found that all the wiring and alarm points for the computer are in place. However, the instruments are purchased but not installed because of their present low priority.

DEPARTMENT: ' MAINTENANCE COORDINATOR: J. DARKE/4817 TEAM LEADER: . T. MARSHALL /3965 POTENTIAL CONCERN /00ESTION:

There is a' potential for loss of Westinghouse Class'1E Nuclear Safety Related 480V AC Five~ Star Motor Control Centers-.(MCC's) due to a failure of a device;;omponent operating beyond its Qualified Life. Also the potential exists for. degradation'of the system due to the failure to

replace.. device / components:as specified by the manufacturer in order to maintain the qualifications of the MCC's.

The Westinghouse Class 1E huclear Safety Related 480 Volt AC Five Star MCC's are used in the NSEB,-Diesel Generator Bldg and the Auxiliary B1dg.

The Vendor Manual .E.7,02.1-57, includes a' list of'evices/ d components.

.with their qualified life and replacement schedule. The certificate of compliance and. statement of qualified life from Westinghouse for these MCC's also references this qualified life and replacement schedule-included in the vendor manual to maintain the qualified life of the MCC's. l Presently neither the existing Preventive Maintenance Program nor any proposed programs include the qualified life and replacement schedule necessary to maintain the qualifications of the Westinghouse five star MCC's.

The MCC's in question where installed in 1982 and 1983 and the qualified life and replacement schedule requires replacement of some parts after 5.5 years which will expire at the end of 1987 and into 1988.

~ INSTRUMENTATION ON TRANSFORMER X43A1. D1. D2 & El DEPARTMENT: NUCLEAR ENGINEERING COORDINATOR: T. TELFORD/3849 i TEAM LEADER: T.N.' MARSHALL /3965 POTENTIAL' CONCERN /00ESTION:

Due .to lack of correct identification numbers and setpoints for the instrumentation on station service transformer X43 A1, Dl, D2 and El there is a potential for transformer damage along with personnel safety and environmental concerns.

The TemperatureLIndicators (TI's),' Temperature Indicating Switch High

-(TISH's), Pressure Indicators.(PI's) and Pressure Switch High/ Lows. j (PSHL's)- are not all identified or tagged with their unique .

1 identification numbers. Most of.them are only identified with'the transformer trouble. alarms in the Control Room.

The .TISH setpoints.on the Calibration sticker for the TI's and TISH's don't match those setpoints in Process Standards (AP.167) nor in the

-Annunciator Procedure.

The PSHL's have no identification numbers and therefore are not in the

-Instrument Calibration records, the MEL or in Process Standards.

The setpoints on the PI Calibration sticker for pressure and vacuum (PSHL's) are not in Process Standards. These setpoints also exceeded the values in the limits section of Process Standards AP.167. Since these setpoints are also above the setpoint for the pressure relief valve, the relief valves could lift and release oil containing PCB's without an annunciator alarm in the Control Room.

IT IS SUGGESTED THAT PAG CONSIDER THIS CONCERN A " VALID COVERED" CONCERN AND INCORPORATE IT HITH THE RESOLUTION OF THE GENERIC ISSUES IDENTIFIED IN RI #0,55 AND THE SETPOINT VERIFICATION PROGRAM.
