A. Criterion XV of Appendix B to 10 CFR Part 50 as implemented by Section 17.1.15 of the Final Safety Analysis Report (FSAR) and by Texas Utilities Generating Company (TUGCO) Quality Assurance Plan (QAP) Section 15.0, Revision 5.0, dated October 18, 1985, requires the identification, tagging, segregation and documentation of nonconforming parts or components.
Brown & Root (B&R) Procedure CP-QAP-16.1, Revision 26, dated September 17, 1981, requires the identification, tagging, segregation and documentation of nonconforming parts or components.
Contrary to the above, on June 23, 1986, the NRC inspector found .1at two damaged thermocouples had been returned from the field and instead of tagging and segregating them as nonconforming items they storedThem in warehouse B bins with six other conforming or acceptable thermocouples (445/8614-V-01; 446/8611-V-01). A RESPONSE TO ITEM A (445/8614-V-01 & 446/8611-V-01)
We admit the violation and the requested information follows.
- 1. Reason for Violation The damaged thermocouples were returned to the warehouse utilizing Material Return to Warehouse (MRTW) Forms in accordance with project procedure CP-CPM-8.1 (Section 3.5). The damage to these items is recorded on the MRTW Form (W15836) which was accepted by Warehouse and QC personnel. The violation resulted from the failure of Warehouse and Quality Control personnel to properly implement procedures for the control and segregation of nonconforming material.
- 2. Corrective Action Taken A Nonconformance Report (NCR E-86-201710) was issued to identify the damage to the thermocouples specified above. These thermocouples have been segregated by relocation to the QA hold area pending completion of the disposi, tion. Construction and Quality Control have performed a joint reinspection of all warehouse storage areas for damaged material and have identified three additional damaged components. These items, which were also documented as damaged per the MRTW Form, have been documented on Nonconformance Report E-86-201817 and relocated to the QA hold area for disposition.
- 3. Action to Prevent Recurrence Warehouse and QC receiving personnel will be retrained in the requirements of the applicable receiving and inspection procedures with emphasis on the segregation of damaged material.

Criterion V of Appendix B to 10 CFR Part 50, as implemented by FSAR Section 17.1.5 and TUGC0 QAP Section 5.0, Revision 3, dated July 31, 1984, requires that activities affecting quality shall be prescribed by documented instructions, procedures, or drawings of a type appropriate to the circumstances and shall be accomplished in accordance with these instructions, procedures, or drawings.
B.4. Paragraph 3.2.1.e of TUGC0 Instruction QI-QP-11.3-28, Revision 30, dated May 21,1986, " Class 1E Cable Terminations," states, in part, with respect to adequacy of Flexible / Unique /Servicair flexible conduit installation, "... Verify that the connection is hand tight, as a minimum."
Contrary to the above, the connectors were loose (not hand tight) for flexible cenduits C22905459 and C23S10114 where they attach to the rigid conduits. Cables were installed, terminated, and energized.
This condition was also observed on approximately ten additional Class 1E conduits (446/8611-V-07). .
RESPONSE TO ITEM B.4 (446/8611-V-07)
We admit the violation and the requested information follows.
- 1. Reason for Violation The conditions described in this finding were found to only exist for flexible conduit C22905459. This condition was the result of the failure by the QC inspector to properly implement the requirements of QI-QP-11.3-28, " Class 1E Cable Terminations."
The connector that attaches the rigid conduit to flexible conduit C23910114, when reexamined, was found to be hand tight.
Although not specifically documented, each of the reported deficiencies was evaluated by the TUGC0 representative during the course of the NRC's inspection of this activity. With the exception of flexible conduit C22905459, the remaining flex connectors identified as deficient involved either in-process work, i.e. installations that were not complete and therefore not yet required to be " hand tight", or the flex connectors involved non-lE installations (i.e. C-train) which are not subject to QI-QP-11.3-28 inspection. (NOTE: Non 1-E flex connector installations are routinely verified by responsible craft personnel prior to room and area turnovers.)

- 2. Corrective Action Taken A review of other completed IE flexible conduit connectors was performed by the TUGC0 representative at the time of the inspection and no
. additional nonconformances were identified. Note that this review was conducted informally and was not documented.
Nonconformance Report E-86-201807 was issued concerning conduit C22905459 to identify the loose flex conduit connections.
Nonconformance Report E-86-201807 was dispositior.ed, work completed and the conduit satisfactorily reinspected July 30, 1986.
- 3. Action to Prevent Recurrence Construction personnel were retrained to assure all flex connectors are tightened at the time of termination. The two connections noted have been tightened or verified to be tight.
The inspector of record has been retrained in the applicable procedure requirements of QI-QP-ll.3-28. A review of Quality Surveillance reinspection results was conducted to determine the accuracy of inspections performed by the inspector of record. The results of the review concluded that previous inspection results were satisfactory, supporting the conclusion that the error was isolated.
- 4. Date of Comoliance Compliance has been achieved, as described above.

Attachment TXX-6186 Page 11 of 15 NOTICE OF VIOLATION ITEM B.5 (446/8611-V-11)
B. Criterion V of Appendix B to 10 CFR Part 50, as implemented by FSAR Section 17.1.5 and TUGC0 QAP Section 5.0, Revision 3, dated' July 31, 1984, requires that activities affecting quality shall be prescribed by documented instructions, procedures, or drawings of a type appropriate to the circumstances and shall be accomplished in accordance with these instructions, procedures, or drawings.
B.5. TUGC0 Instruction QI-QP-11.3-26, Revision 24, dated October 11, 1985,
" Electrical Cable Installation Inspection," paragraph 3.2.1.j, states,
" Cable ends - Cable ends shall be sealed with heat shrink caps or tape after pulling activities." Paragraph 4.7.1 of B&R Engineering Instruction EEI-7, Revision 5, dated October 8, 1982, " Cable Pulling,"
states, " Cable ends shall be sealed with heat shrink caps or tape during the period prior to the terminations."
Contrary to the above, unlanded conductors in cable spreading room panel CP2-ECDPPC-03 did not have end protection through the application of heat shrink caps or tape. This condition was observed to be widespread throughout the plant. Some of the conductors were marked with a " spare" designation, others were not. It was observed-that TUGC0 Instruction QI-QP-11.3-28, Revision 30, dated May 21, 1986,
" Class 1E Cable Terminations", did not address conductor end protection for cables which have had their outer jackets removed, but have not been terminated. In addition, none of the procedures / instructions addressed the marking of " spare" cables / conductors using the "SP" designator (446/8611-V-ll).
RESPONSE TO ITEM B.5 (446/8611-V-ll)
We deny the alleged violation for the reasons that follow.
Instructions QI-QP-11.3-26, " Electrical Cable Installation Inspection," and EEI-7, " Cable Pulling," apply to the construction activities involved in routing cables from origination to destination. The cable may contain several individual conductors which are either terminated or designated as spare or as unused.
Attachment TXX-6186 Page 12 of 15 NOTICE OF VIOLATION RESPONSE TO ITEM B.5 (446/8611-V-11) CONT'D Instruction QI-QP-11.3-26, Revision 24, dated October 11, 1985, " Electrical Cable Installation Inspection", paragraph 3.2.1.j, states, " Cable ends -cable ends shall be sealed with heat shrink caps or tape after pulling activities."
Paragraph 4.7.1 of EEI-7 states, " Cable ends shall be sealed with heat shrink caps or tape during the period prior to the terminations." The intent of this procedure is to provide protection to the cable end prior to, during and after construction pulling activities. The cable as a unit (agl individual conductors) is capped or protected.
In2tructions QI-QP-11.3-28, Revision 30, dated May 21,1986, " Class 1E Cable Terminations", and EEI-8, " Class 1E and Non-class 1E Cable Terminations" do not require unused conductors within a " terminated cable" to have cable end protection even though the outer jacket has been removed. It is not the intent of these procedures or specification requirements to provide conductor end protection for unused conductors within a terminated cable. Unused conductors are tied and segregated from terminated conductors.
A subsequent inspection of Panel CP2-ECDPP03 by craft revealed the following:
- 1. There were no cables or conductors observed with the SP marking in this panel. None were required.
Note: Only those cables specifically designated spare by Engineering via Design Change Authorizations or Nonconformance Reports are marked "SP". Unused conductors within any terminated cable are not required to be marked "SP". As previously noted, individual conductors are either terminated or designated as " spare" or unused.
- 2. Cable NK 245644 3C #10 had only two conductors landed. The additional conductor was bundled as required and marked with the cable number NK 245644. There was no end cap or tape applied. None was required.
- 3. There were two cables (EB 205321 and EB 205327) that had tape on the ends.
These cables met the requirements of Instructions QI-QP-11.3-26 and EEI-7.
TUGCO's evaluation of this finding indicates that the existing conditions were in accordance with the applicable procedures and accurately reflect the specification requirements.

- 8. Criterion V of Appendix B to 10 CFR Part 50, as implemented by FSAR Section 17.1.5 and TUGC0 QAP Section 5.0, Revision 3, dated July 31, 1984, requires that activities affecting quality shall be prescribed by documented instructions, procedures, or drawings of a typ(ap)ropriate to the circumstances and shall be accomplished in accordance wffi these instructions, procedures, or drawings.
B.6. Paragraph 3.1.3.c of TUGC0 Instruction QI-QP-11.3-26, Revision 24, dated October 11,1985, " Electrical Cable Installation Inspection,"
states, in part, "... If field color coding becomes necessary, Class 1E and associated Class IE cables shall be color banded at intervals not exceeding 5 feet, and shall be visible at all openings..."
Contrary to the above, at elevation 832 feet in the safeguards building, the black cable installed in junction box JB2S-956G was not color coded green at the junction box opening. In room 850 of the safeguards building, the black cable installed in junction box JB2S-5448 was not color coded blue at the junction box opening. In addition, this cable was not color coded at the first " upstream" condulet opening (446/8611-V-12).
RESPONSE TO ITEM B.6 (446/8611-V-12)
We admit the violation and the requested information follows.
- 1. Reason for Violation Conditions described in this finding were the result of the failure by personnel to implement the color coding requirements of eel-16, " Field Color Coding of Electrical Cable", and Q1-11.3-26, " Electrical Cable Installation Inspection."
- 2. Corrective Action Taken Nonconformance Reports E-86-201808 and E-86-201824 were written to identify and disposition the conditions in junctinn boxes JB2S-544B and JB2S-956G respectively.
Both Nonconformance Reports have been dispositioned, work completed and the cables satisfactorily reinspected July 17, 1986.

- 3. Actions to Prevent Recurrence Responsible construction personnel have been re-trained to the requirements of EEI-16, " Field Color Coding of Electrical Cable."
The inspector of record for JB2S-956G is no longer on site, however, the inspector of record for JB2S-5448 was retrained to QI-QP-11.3-26,
" Electrical Cable Installation Inspection."
In order to determine the accuracy of inspections performed by the inspectors of record, a review of Quality Surveillance reinspection results was conducted. The results of the review concluded that previous inspections by both inspectors were satisfactory, supporting the conclusion that the errors were isolated.
- 4. Date of Como11ance Compliance has been achieved, as described above.

Attachment TXX-6186 Page 15 of 15 NOTICE OF VIOLATION ITEM C (445/8614-V-03 & 446/8611-V-10)
C. Criterion V of Appendix B to 10 CFR Part 50, as implemented by FSAR Section 17.1.5 and TUGC0 QAP Section 5.0, Revision 3, dated July 31, 1984, requires that activities affecting quality shall be prescribed by documented instructions, procedures, or drawings of a type appropriate to the circumstances and shall be accomplished in accordance with those instructions, procedures, or drawings.
Contrary to the above, TUGC0 Instructions (QI-QPs) did not address process control for drilling holes in solid bottom cable tray to facilitate installation of fittings and/or cable TY-RAPS (445/8614-V-03; 446/861-V-10).
RESPONSE TO ITEM C (445/8614-V-03 & 446/8611-V-10)
We admit the violation and the requested information follows.
- 1. Reason for Violation Conditions described in this finding are the result of the inadequacy of the applicable specification (2323-ES-100) to adequately provide requirements for the drilling of cable tray to facilitate Ty-rap installations.
- 2. Corrective Action Taken Specification 2323-ES-100 was revised by an approved design change (DCA-12562). Construction and inspection procedures EEI-7, " Cable Pulling,"
CP-CPM-14.1, " Guidelines for Protection of Permanent Plant Equipment,"
and QI-QP-11.3-26, " Electrical Cable Installation Inspections" were revised to provide criteria for installation and verification of completed installations. These actions ensure proper process control of the installation of Ty-raps and were completed June 16, 1986.
Applicable construction and quality personnel were trained in the revised requirements of the procedures listed above.
Existing installations of Ty-rap are adequate since process controls did exist to prevent cable damage. These controls included: 1) Verification of the absence of conditions which could be damaging (i.e. rough edges, burrs) in a tray prior to cable pulling, 2) Monitoring the cable pull process, and 3) Verification of the correct installation of ty raps (i.e.,
spacing and type).
- 3. Actions to Prevent Recurrence The corrective actions taken will prevent recurrence.
- 4. Date of Comoliance Compliance has been achieved, as described above.
