TOLEDO EDISON GLENN J. SAMPSON January 18, 1973 vie. ac..e.m.po..e Docket No. 50-346 Mr. Frank Kruesi, Director Directorate of Regulatory Operations Atomic Energy Commission Washington, D. C. 20545

Dear Mr. Kruesi:

Pursuant to requirements contained in 10 CFR 50.55 (e), The Toledo Edison Company submits the following interim report which will be followed within 30 days with a more comprehensive report:

During the fabrication of a significant number of ASME Section III, Class 2 and Class 3 piping spool pieces at the Grinnell-Kernersville, North Carolina shop, it was found that tack welding had been per-( ) formed by welders not qualified according to applicable Davis-Besse w_./ requirements.

Toledo Edison will receive from Grinnell a detailed summary of activities contributing to this significant deficiency, including the resolution and corrective actions taken to prevent recurrence.

This summary report will be made available to the Atomic Energy Commission within 30 days.

Yours very truly,,

(O) v Investigaon of Steam Generator Weld Regards

1. Background .

\

The steam generators for B6W nticlear steam systems were designed and fabricated in accordam.; with t.he requirencnts of & 1965 or 1968 editions of the ASME Code Section III, and appropriate addenda. The 1965 edition of Section III does not contain requirements for the mechanical testing of weld electrodes. How-ever, beginning with the 1966 winter addenda the Code requires that welding material certification include data relative to mechanical tests in addition to the chemical analysis previously required. The material properties are to be recorded and filed as permanent records.

A recent audit by B5W's Quality Control organization at Barberton, Ohio shcws that documentatioit is incomplete for certain lots of weld filler metal used in the fabrication of the steam generators for Oconee Units 1, 2 4 3; Three Mile Island Units 1 6 2; Crystal River Unit 3; Arkansas Nuclear One Unit 1; Rancho Seco; Midland Units 1 4 2; and Davis Besse,

.b As a result of this audit, an intensive investigation was conducted. This in-i vestigation has disclosed that the records are complete for all welds made by submerged arc and electroslag methods, These welding methods were used for the  !

major longitudinal and circumferential welds of the steam generators.

However, complete documentation has not been found for certain lots of weld electrodes used with the manual metal arc welding method utilized in repair ,

welds, weld pad buildups and some nozzle attachment welds. One of these lots has incomplete documentation of both chemical and mechanical properties. The remaining lots have satisfactory documentation of their chemistry but incom-plete documentation of mechanical properties. All of these lots were produced by the same methods used in the manufacture of electrodes of the same type that had been tested and found to have the required properties for nuclear I

construction.

This report provides the data necessary to justify the tensile strength and im-p pact properties of the electrodes having incomplete documentation. The justi-V fication is based upon comparing the known data from the lots havin;; incomplete documentation with corresponding data for the fully documented lots.

2. Evaluation i: U A detailed review of all of the steam generator weld records has been completed.

The attached drawings show the location of welds in each affected steam generator made with the electrodes having incomplete documentation of the mechanical pro-perties. Table 1 lists, for each affected unit, the type and lot number of those electrodes for which mechanical properties were incompletely documented.  :

1 Each of the lots of the 7015 and 8015 type electrodes was manufactured in B6W's Electrode Shop. To obtain the datg necessary to justify the mechanical proper-ties of the filler material, a search was made for test certification data of similar electrodes manufactured by B6W during the last five years. This search resulted in the finding of seventy-three production lots of type 7015 and twenty-eight production lots of type 8015 electrodes which had been tested and documented as required for nuclear applications, The chemical analyses, tensile strengths, and charpy V-notch impact strengths (at +10 F,after stress relief at 1100 - 1150 F I.

for a minimum of 48 hours5.555556e-4 days <br />0.0133 hours <br />7.936508e-5 weeks <br />1.8264e-5 months <br />) are tabulated in Tables 2 and 3. The tables also in-clude the " Carbon Equivalent" which has been calculated by the equation...

CE = %C + 6

+ %CR 10 %7

%Ni

. (1)

The Carbon Equivalent is a measure of the hardenability of ferrous materials and is used to define the chemical limits of certain steels with respect to weld-ability. This Carbon Equivalent is commonly used for evaluating the strength of filler metals, and the data from Tables 2 and 3 were used to plot the tensile strength versus Carbon Equivalent as shown in Figures 1 and 2.

Tables 4 and 5 list the chemical analyses and Carbon Equivalents of the lots of 7015 and 8015 type electrodes for wfiich mechanical properties were incompletely documented. Whenusing the Carbon Equivalents of the lots of filler material listed in Tables 4 and 5 to determine the minimum expected tensile strength, as shown en Figures 1 and 2, it is evident that all lots with incomplete documen-tation exceed the minimum specified values shown on Figures 1 and 2 All of the charpy V-notch impact data shown in Tables 2 and 3 are expressed in ft - Ibs of energy absorbed at +10 F. The minimum impact strength pennitted ,

by specification at +40 F is 20 or 30 ft - lbs depending upon electrode type.

Since all of the data for type 7015 and 8015 electrodes exceed 45 ft - lbs, even at +10 F,it is evid,ent that the lots in question exceed the minimum specified strength by a considerable margin, Three lots of incompletely documented type 11018 filler metal were used for steam generator base metal and weld metal repairs. The data for these lots are shown

\a/ in Table 6. This type of filler metal is used in repairs which are quenched and tempered after the weld repair is made, and in order to qualify the filler metal fut this application, the weld test pad must receive a quench and temper heat treat: ment similar to that of the production weldments followed by a stress relief.

Table 7 presents in tabular form the tensile and impact data for specimens which have been quenched and tempered and then stress relieved for 30 hours3.472222e-4 days <br />0.00833 hours <br />4.960317e-5 weeks <br />1.1415e-5 months <br /> at a tem-perature of 1100 to 1150 F. The minimum required tensile strength and impact values for this application are 70,000 psi and 20 ft - lbs at +40 F, respectively.

When comparing the data for the lots in question with the background data listed in Table 7, it is evident that these lots will exceed the minimum specified values.

Table 8 lists the chemical analyses and carbon equivalents of the seven lots of Type 7018 filler metal for which mechanical properties were incompletely documented.

Two of these lots were manufactured by BSW, and the remaining five were produced by two other filler metal vendors, Chemetron Corp. and Reid Avery Co. (RACO). The min-imum required tensile strength and impact values for type 7018 filler metal are 70,000 nei ed 20 ft . IhS at +40 F,recractively.

D The e B5W lots, the Chemetron lot and FACO lot 10784, have weld metal chemistry that falls within the limits of the weld metal chemistry for Type 7015 filler metal as shown in Table 2. Een using the carbon equivalent of these lots of filler metal to detemine the minimum expected tensile strength from Figure 1, and when comparing the data on these lots with. the data in Table 2 for deter-mining expected impact strength, it is evident that the minimum tensile and im-pact requirements exceed the minimum specified values.

Two RACO lots, 93382 and 01972, differ in chemistry from typical 7018 electrodes by the lack of hb1vbdenum. A review of data on Type 7018 electrodes manufactured by subcontract vendors was made, and the chemistry, tensile strengths, carbon equivalents and impact data of these electrodes are tabulated in Table 9 Een comparing the two RACO lots, 93382 and 01972, with the data in Table 9 it is evi-dent that the minimum tensile and impact requirements exceed the minimum specified values.

One heat of 5/32" diameter RACO "S1S" class "E70SG" wire, heat # 661V009, had in-

~ /

\ complete documentation of mechanical properties. This wire had the following chemical analysis...

0.09% C; 2.10% Mn; 0,024%P; 0.020%S; 0,47%Mo,

. which results in a Carbon Equivalent of 0.49.

. A search wasmadeof past records of similar wire used for Tungsten inert gas welding, and the results are presented in Table 10. This table shows the vendor certifica-tion of the wire and the B4W certification of the weld. The minimum required ten-sile strength and impact values are 70,000 pri and 20 ft - lbs at +40 F. Een the wira chemistry for heat 661V009 is compared to the data on Table 10 it is evident l that this heat will exceed the minimum specified values. l One lot of type 70A1 filler metal supplied by McKay, lot number 277T1804, had in-complete documentation of impact properties. This lot had the following chemical analysis...

- The minimum required tensile strength and impact values are 70,000 psi and 20 ft -

lbs at +40 F. A search was made of past records of similar type 70A1 filler metal supplied by McFay and the results are presented in Table 11. When the data for Int :~~T1304 are rag ared to the data on Table 11, it is evident that this heat will exceed the minimum specified values.

One lot of Type 7018 filler metal had incomplete documentation of chemical and mechanical properties. This lot, number 51052A, was manufactured by RACO and was satisfactorily tested by BfM for impact properties after a 48 hour5.555556e-4 days <br />0.0133 hours <br />7.936508e-5 weeks <br />1.8264e-5 months <br /> stress relief at a temperature of 1100 to 1150 F. Although complete certification has not been found for this lot, the vendor reports that the lot was manufactured to the standard chemical specifications for type 7018 filler metal and had an "as welded" tensile st:rength of 82,000 psi. A study of the "as welded" versus " stress relieved" tensile strength in Table 9 shows that the maximum reduction in tensile strength is less than 6,000 psi after a stress relief of 48 hours5.555556e-4 days <br />0.0133 hours <br />7.936508e-5 weeks <br />1.8264e-5 months <br /> at a tempera-ture of 1100 to 1150 F. Thus, based on this study, it is evident that the lot will exceed the 70,000 psi minimum tensile strength requirement.

v In sumary, all of the filler metal having incc=plete docmentation is considered satisfactory and acceptable.

3. Corrective Actions The following actions which have been taken by B5W will prevent a recurrence of the ci e tien...

1. All weld filler metal intended for use on non-nuclear components has been removed from the areas where the Commercial hbclear components are fabri-cated.

2. A review nas been made to assure that all of the nuclear weld filler metal currently in use has Been properly tested.

3. The system'for releasing weld filler metal to the nuclear shops has been revised to assure compliance with the testing requirements of the applicable specifications. A new weld filler metal release fonn is now in use. This form raust accompany the filler metal to the shops and it certifies that all of the required testing has been completed.

4 A listing of acceptable lots of weld filler metal will be available for use on the shop floor and during process upgrading. This listing will

~

enable an in-process review of the acceptability of the lot numbers on Weld Control Records.
