P-C5 120 "2 3" 2 5~ TEST RESULTS
- 5. 1 INSULATION RESISTANCE Results of IR measurements obtained during the test program are summarized in Table 2. IR measurements made during the S/C exposure include the IR ef-fects of extension cables'and terminal blocks used to connect the specimens to he energiiing circuits; the effects usually cause a small reduction in measured IR.
5.2 THERMAL AGING The specimens that were thermally aged at 136 o
C o
(277 F) for 7 days appeared to be in generally good condition;.there was no significant difference in flex-ibility from that observed before the thermal aging. Minor blocking, i,e.,
n sticking, occurred between turns of some specimens and where the specimens touched the stainless steel mandrel and cable supports. There were no crac'ks or other irregularities observed.
- 5. 3 GAMMA IRRADIATION After being exposed to an air-equivalent dose of 200 Mrd, the specimens appeared to be in good condition with no apparent change in their flexibility.
There were no cracks or other irregularities observed.
- 5. 4 STEAM/CHEMICAL"SPRAY EXPOSURE The steam/chemical-spray (S/C) e'.posure was provided in general accor-dance with the specified temperature/pressure profile illustrated in Figure 4 with the following comments:
~ The pressure and temperature histories for the first 16 minutes of each transient are presented in Figures 5 and 6.
~ A temperature of 300 F (149 C) was achieved in approximately B sec-onds during the first and second transient.
o A temperature of 385 F (196 C) was reached in, 38 seconds during the first transient and 35 seconds during the second transient. These temperatures were indicated by a thermccouple located approximately 1 'n (25 mttt) inside the inner mandrel of cables.
~= Within 15 minute., after the 12-minute superheated steam dwells, the minimum and maximum indicated temperatures were less than 10 0 F 5-1

Removal of IMO-54 From EQ List T-Drains in Limitorque Actuators Limitorque motor operator, Donald C. Cook Nuclear Plant tag number IM0-54, has been determined not to be within the scope of 10 CFR 50.49.
A design change to install a T-drain on selected valve operators (RFD-DC-12-2930) was written on June 9, 1986. A purchase requisition to Limitorque for the purchase of the T-drain had been written on April 15, 1986 (PO 02238-041-68). After the necessary management approval, the purchase order was telephoned to Limitorque on April 30, 1986. T-drains were installed in four inside containment and four outside containment valve operators in each unit (16 valves total) on June 13, 1986. IMO-54 was not one of the valves slated for installation.
The miscellaneous EQ issues involving Limitorque valve actuators were fully realized through our participation in the Nuclear Utility Group on Equipment Qualification (NUGEQ), These issues were being addressed prior to the EQ inspection. An April 1986 NUGEQ report, "Clarification of Information Related to the Environmental Qualification of Limitorque Valve Operations" addresses several of these issues.
IMO-54 was scoped to be removed from the EQ list prior to the inspection.. This resulted from our investigation of various NRC EQ Limitorque EQ issues. Thus T-drains were not procurred for or installed on this valve.
IMO-54 is a motor-operated valve located in the Emergency Core Cooling System. It is normally open and remains open during normal plant operation and during a Design Basis Accident.
Injection to the core via this path would be terminated by tripping the centrifugal charging pumps.
IMO-54 will not change position in the event of a DBA. This is due to the AEPSC "Double Break" control circuit philosophy which prevents the spurious operation of a valve due to contact failure or cable shorts. Therefore, the removal of this valve from the EQ list would not adversely impact the accident mitigation or lead to operator misinformation.

DATKs May 14, 1986 50bNCTs D, C. Cook Units 1 & 2 Technical Review of Differences in Tested and Installed Configuration of Foxboro Pigtails F Rolls J. Munson - EGS TOs R. G. Vasey .- NS & L During the recent NRC audit of the DCCNP Environmental Qualification Program, 'it was noted that the DCCNP installed configuration of tne Foxooro instrument pigtail condulet per PDS-1341 under RFC-01-2927 5 02-2828 was physically different than the tested con igurazion by the vendor in Wyle Test Report 45592-4. The tested configuration utilized a small 1/4ss weep at a low point on a flexible metal conduit protecting the 'ole Foxboro instrument seal assembly pigtails. The'eep hole was used to drain condensation near the instrument which may have accumulated inside the flex conduit during the si{aulated DBA test (see attached sketches).
The DCCNP installed configuration incorporated the use of a sealtite flexible conduit plus the sealing of both the entrance and exit'of the flexible conduit with an RTV silicone sealant.
No provisions for a weep-hole were made for the DCCNP specific design. The applicable plant design standard for the installation of the instrument, pigtails, flex conduit, splice box, and pigtail splices is shown on drawing PDS-1341 (attached).
The sealtite flexible conduit used in the installation is tradenamed Liquatite and manufactured by the Alflex Co. The plastic covering over the flexible metal conduit is made of a Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) material. According to the manufacturer, the Liquatite flex conduit has not been environmentally qualified.
The hypothesized failure mode of the D. C. Cook configuration is that the PVC jacket on the flex conduit may fail during an accident near any elevated point on the conduit and allow steam to enter and condense. The condensation would them "pool" at the conduit low points, thereby, subjecting the pigtails to possible submergence. The following paragraphs of this memo address this concern.
IHTRA SYSTKM
~
Through conversations vith Foxboro, it avoid has been determined that the "backing-up~ of the intent of the weep-nole vas to condensate from the chemical spray into the Integral Junction Box used in one of the two tested configurations. The integral junction box houses a terminal block vhich is known to be susceptible to leakage currents when exposed to chemical spray solution. The veep-hole design vas carried-over to the second configuration whicn was used at D. C. Cook. The second configuration incorporaces an internal instrument splice to a Conax seal assembly with no Integral Junction Box or terminal block installed. Therefore, the "backing-up" of condensate near the instrument seal assembly in the D. C. Cook configuration vas of no significant concern.
Additionally, in both tested configurations the metal flex conduit looped back up after the veep hole and vas routed dovn to a penetration at tne bottom of the test chamber. The bottom end of the flex conduit vas .sealed which created a potential for the "pooling" of chemical spray condensate during the test. In this respect, the tested configuration is similar to vhat is hypothesized in the D. C. Cook Plant configuration.
The potential for pigtail submergence failure is much less'f a concern for the D. C. Cook configuration due to the folloving reasons:
- 1) It is not likely that the D. C. Cook sealed flex conduit configuration would fail in such a vay as to create a harsher chemical submergence environment for the pigtails than vhat was tested. The type of submergence in the speculated D. C.
Cook case involves a steam condensate and is not associated with containment flooding conditions. The steam condensate should theoretically be at a pH value which is less severe than the chemical spray exposure during the test.
- 2) The Kapton<<insulated pigtail vires of the Gonax Seal assembly are individually protected by the application of a heat shrinkable polyolefin jacket. The heat shrink tubing jacket significantly improves the ability of the pigtail vires to vithstand chemical submergence by adding a protective layer of material over the Kapton insulation. %here applied, the protective layer of heat shrink reduces the exposure of the Kapton insulation to the condensate. The typical failure of Kapton insulated vire is due to an abrasion of the insulating material during installation combined with the. effects of the chemical solution. The potential for abrasion or other mechanical damage of the Kapton insulation during installation at D. C. Cook has been essentially eliminated by the application of the heat shr'ink jacket.
- 3) The test report configuration, which exposed the Kapton insulated pigtails to the test chamber environment vga the
'1/4inch weep hole, demonstrates the ability of the pigtail wires to withstand harsh chemical conditions even without a protective heat shrink jacket.
En conclusion, we believe that the omittance oi the veep-hole in the flex conduit. near the instrument in the D. C. Cook configuration does not have a detrimental impact 'on the environmental cuaiiiicar.ion of the instrument, seal assembly or seal assembly pigtails. in addition, we believe that there is no significant func".'onal difference between the tested and the D.
C. Cook installed configurations of the foxboro instrument pigtail conduits.

Dear Dr. Murl.ey:
NSjkL SECTION This letter provides a written report confirming the telephone conversation of March 30, 1988, between Indiana Michigan Power and the NRC Operations Center, regarding notification made pursuant to Title 10 CFR Part 21.
On March 30, 1988, American Electric Power Service Corporation received notification from Limitorque Corporation that the torque switch design employed on some valve operators in use at Cook Nuclear Plant have not been qualification tested for nuclear safety related service. These valve operators are Limitorque Model SMB that incorporate a design used during the first few years this model was produced.
Based on our evaluations, which considered the lack of torque switch qualification tests, we believe that safe plant operation will continue to be maintained.
Additional details are included in the attachment, For further details on clarification, Mr. Paul A. Barrett, Manager, Nuclear Safety and Licensing, can be reached ar, 614/223-2040.
- Dr. Nurley AEP: NRC: 097l.E This document has been prepared following Corporate procedures which incorporate a reasonable set of controls to ensure its accuracy and comp'eteness prior to signature by the undersigned..
Sincerely, M. P. Al ich Vice Presiden-eh Attachment cc: D. H. Villiams, r.
V. G. Smith, ~r. - Bridgman R. C. Gal len G. Bruchmann G. Charnoff NRC Resident Inspector - Bridgman A. B. Davis - Region III for AEP:NRC:0971E Page 1 INDIANA MICHIGAN POWER DONALD C. COOK NUCLEAR PIANT Attachment to 10 CFR 21 Letter Environmental uglification of Tor ue Switches Back round and Discover of Defect Acceptable types of materials used in the switch body and dielectric of Limitorque valve operators were presented as a portion of environmental qualification training given to plant personnel. This training identified the acceptable types of torque switch materials to be 1imited to white melamine, brown fibrite, and red or black durez. Plant maintenance personnel recalled a fourth type of material (also brown in color) used in installed Model SMB-00 valve operators. The material appears to be a laminated phenolic. These switches can be mistaken for the qualified fibrite switches because of their brown color. Thus, "-
the potential exists for torque switches which have not been qualification tested.
A review of Limitorque.Model SMB-00 valve operators in use at Cook Nuclear Plant revealed a total of 70 such operators. Condition Report (Deficiency Report) 12-3-88;0450 was initiated on March 25, 1988 to investigate the qualification of these valve operators.
A suspect torque switch was sent to Limitorque Corporation and was analyred. The Limitorque Corporation review revealed that this torque switch design (1) was used during the first few years Model SMB-00 was produced and (2) has not been qualification tested for nuclear safety related service. Notification of this finding was received by American Electric Power Service Corporation on'arch 30, 1988.
Corrective Action The untested torque switches will either be replaced during the next respective Unit 1 and Unit 2 refueling outages or the existing torque switch design will be confirmed to be qualified by an acceptable test.
Locations of Tor ue Switches Limitorque Model SMB-00 valve operators using the untested laminated phenolic material in the torque switch design are potentially installed on the following Cook. Nuclear Plant valves:
