SSINS No.: 6835 IN 85-74 UNITED STATES
NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION
OFFICE OF INSPECTION AND ENFORCEMENT
WASHINGTON, DC 20555 August 29, 1985 IE INFORMATION NOTICE NO. 85-74: STATION BATTERY PROBLEMS
Addressees
a
All nuclear power reactor facilities holding an operating license (OL) or
construction permit (CP).
Purpose
This notice describes problems that have occurred with lead-acid station as a
batteries at several nuclear power plants. These problems were discovered
result of inspections by the NRC Performance Appraisal Team (PAT). It is
their
expected that recipients will review the information for applicability to
facilities and consider actions, if appropriate, to preclude a similar problem
occurring at their facilities. However, suggestions contained in this information
notice do not constitute NRC requirements; therefore, no specific action or
written response is required.
Description of Circumstances
All four recent inspections by the PAT identified problems with lead-acid
station batteries. Although all of the problems are not listed here, a summarythat
of a few of the more significant problems with lead-acid station batteries
were identified as a result of these inspections is provided below:
Cooper PAT Inspection (November 1984):
The battery rated-load discharge test was performed at a discharge rate
significantly less than the manufacturer's recommended rated-load discharge
rate for the 8-hour period of the test. The licensee had no records of battery
charging following the completion of battery discharge test and consequently
the time and date the batteries were returned to service could not be determined.
The licensee failed to correct specific gravity measurements for electrolyte
temperature and level. The licensee had no written procedures for conducting
charges of the station batteries.
McGuire PAT Inspection (February 1985):
Three cells were placed on single-cell chargers for about 2 years, thus raising
questions regarding the operability of the battery and electrical independence
and separation of the Class 1E dc power systems. The cells on single cell
8508270031
J
IN 85-74 August 29, 1985 charge were at voltages higher than specified in the vendor manual. Although
one cell in the battery was jumpered out, the float voltage for the entire
battery was not reduced; consequently each cell was floated at a voltage higher
than specified in the battery vendor manual. The battery performance discharge
test was performed improperly because the test was stopped before reaching the
minimum specified voltage.
Susquehanna PAT Inspection (February 1985):
There were no station procedures for maintaining station batteries in accordance
with the battery vendor's manual or IEEE Std 450-1975, "IEEE Recommended
Practice for Maintenance, Testing and Replacement of Large Lead Storage Batteries
for Generating Stations and Substations" (which is endorsed by Regulatory Guide
1.129, "Maintenance, Testing and Replacement of Large Lead Storage Batteries
for Nuclear Power Plants"). Intercell resistance values were not compared with
previous values to determine when corrective action was required. The licensee
did not always conduct equalizing charges when required; nor did the licensee
have procedures for monitoring the progress of an equalizing charge or determining
when the charge should be terminated. Surveillance procedures for the 60-month
rated-capacity discharge test did not conform to IEEE Std 450-1975 because the
test was terminated at the end of 8 hours9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br />, instead of when the terminal voltage
fell to the minimum specified value (usually 1.75 volts per cell). The licensee's
procedures did not require that the average specific gravity be calculated and
compared to the technical-specification acceptance criteria.
San Onofre PAT Inspection (March 1985):
During the first 2 years of operation, the battery capacity tests required by
the Final Safety Analysis Report (FSAR) and IEEE Std 450-1980 were not performed
on Units 2 and 3. The total battery float voltage was not adjusted to account
for two jumpered out cells. The two jumpered out cells did not receive the
manufacturer's specified surveillances, maintenance, or charges. The pilot
cells were not being changed on a yearly basis, as recommended by the vendor's
technical instructions. The station engineer responsible for the technical
aspects of battery operation, maintenance, and surveillance did not receive
surveillance results and data sheets on a routine basis.
Discussion:
Recent IE inspections of operating facilities indicate that several widespread
deficiencies may exist in the operation and maintenance of station batteries.
These deficiencies are attributable to a variety of causes, including licensee
error, inadequate knowledge of batteries by maintenance technicians and
supervisors, and inadequate procedural guidance. The results of these
inspections suggest a general lack of appreciation amongst licensee personnel
for proper maintenance and surveillance of station batteries. Although batteries
contain no moving parts, considerable care and attention to detail is required
to maintain them operable. Too often, licensees may be treating these vital
engineered safety features (ESF) power supplies as "passive" components and not
providing them the necessary management and technical attention.
IN 85-74 August 29, 1985 The following reference materials provide guidance as to the individual
requirements for a facility's station batteries.
1. IEEE 450-1975, and 1980
2. Regulatory Guide 1.129, Rev. 1, "Maintenance, Testing and Replacement
of Large Lead Storage Batteries for Nuclear Power Plants" (This
regulatory guide endorses IEEE Std 450-1975 with certain exceptions.)
3. Facility Technical Specifications
4. Final Safety Analysis Report (FSAR)
5. Station Battery Vendor Technical Manual (The vendors of station
batteries periodically update their manuals to include revised
guidance.)
Other recent problems with station batteries were described in IE Information
Notice 84-83: VARIOUS BATTERY PROBLEMS, November 14, 1984.
No specific action or written response is required by this information notice.
