The field report indicated that two of the three PC cards failed to produce an output. our lab evaluation of the returned relay indicated that component res was defective on each PC card that had failed to produce an output. on each PC card with a defective res we also found the exposed lead of capacitor C12 was touching the exposed lead of resistor R29. A short between these component leads will result in damage to component IC5, preventing a relay output from the associated phase. A review of the layout of the card indicated that C12 and R29 are adjacent to a user selection link identified as the ''count select''.

GE Type SLV11A Relays Gentlemen:

our records indicate that you have purchased Type SLV11A Voltage Relays for Nuclear lE application on the purchase orders shown on the attached list. This letter is to notify you of a potentially reportable condition pursuant to 10CFR21.

We have just completed an inv~stigation into a field failure report of an SLV11A relay. This is a three phase over/under voltage relay containing separate threshold detection cards for each phase. The field report indicated that two of the three PC cards failed to produce an output.

our lab evaluation of the returned relay indicated that component res was defective on each PC card that had failed to produce an output. on each PC card with a defective res we also found the exposed lead of capacitor C12 was touching the exposed lead of resistor R29. A short between these component leads will result in damage to component IC5, preventing a relay output from the associated phase.

A review of the layout of the card indicated that C12 and R29 are adjacent to a user selection link identified as the count select. It is possible that C12 can be accidently pushed into contact with R29 during placement of the count select jumper.

Relays in the field may be inspected for clearance between C12 and R29. Figure 1, attached, shows the location of these components on the threshold detection board. Functional performance of the relay may be verified using the procedure in the testing section of the SLV11A instruction book, GEK-65535.

Users may determine from their application of the relay if a safety hazard could be created by the condition described above.

Sincerely yours,
