SUMMARY

OF SALIENT FACTS FRC Project Numbe. : C4997 Test Program Conducted for:

American Insulated Wire Corporation Central Asanne and Freeman Street Pawtucket, Rhode Island 02862 Test Program Conducted and Reported by:

Franle14n Research Center 20th and The Parkway Philadelphia, PA 19103 Date of Test Program:

November and December 1978 Objective of Test Program:

Demonstrate performance of electrical cables for Class 1E service in a nuclear power geners-i: '. station in accordance with test guidelines presented in IrI.J. Scandards 383-1974* and 323-1974.,

Equipment Tested:

Eighteen specimens of 1/C #16 AWG electrical cable insulated with 30 nil of EPDM insulation. Some specimens contained in-lint splice?

prepared with Raychem ThernofitO WCSF-N heat-shrinkable tubing.

Elements of Test Program:

A thermal aging program van perforned by the client in v! tr a the j cpecimens were divided into three groups of six cables each.

' All specimens were subjected to an air-equivalent dose of 50 Mrad

, from a cobalt-60 source sad subsequently to a 34-day steam / chemical -

, spray (S/C) exposure ' designed to simulate a combined steam-line-In break (SLB) and loss-of-coclant-accident- (LOCA) environment. The S/C exposure included a peak temperature / pressure of 381*F/58 psig*

which occurred 45 seconds after initiation of the S/C exposure.

The cablas were electrically energized with 600 Vsc sad 10 A throughout the S/C exposure. Following the S/C exposure, the cables were subjected tola mandrel-band test at 40' times the cable '

diameter and to a high potential-withstand test at 80 Vac per mil of insulation.

Summary of Test Results:

The cables r==e4=ad electrically energized throughout the 34-day S/C exposure and withstood a post-test, high-potential / bend test.

  • The pressure was increasin's at 45 seconds and continued rising to a peak of 112 psig at 140 seconds ET.

2. IDENTIFICATION OF CABLES TESTED  !

The test specimens consisted of eighteen 1/C #16 AWG electrical cables insulated with 30 mil of EPRi insulation which are identified in Table 1. For ease of identification, the client separated the specimens into two groups of nine esbles each which were labelled group "A" and group "3". The length of each cable was approximately 30 ft. Some specimens contained in-line sp?. ices of Baychem ThermofitO WCSF-N heat-shrinkable tubing.

(b) The specimens were thermally aged by the client.
