Purpose The purpose of this inspection was to review the licensee's implementation of the requirements of 10 CFR 50.4 . Background NUREG-0588 was issued in December 1979 to promote an orderly and systematic implementation of equipment qualification programs by industry and to provide guidance to the NRC staff for its use in ongoing licensing review The positions contained in NUREG-0588 provided guidance on (1) how to establish environmental service conditions, (2) how to select methods that are considered appropriate for qualifying equipment in areas

l of nuclear plants, and (3) other areas such as margin, aging, and documentatio A final rule on environmental qualification of electric equipment important to safety for nuclear power plants became effective on February 22, 1983. The rule 10 CFR 50.49, specifies the requirements to be met for demonstrating the environmental qualification of electrical equipment located in a harsh environment. In accordance with 10 CFR 50.49, paragraph (k), the same electrical equipment at Waterford 3 may be qualified in accordance with the acceptance criteria specified in Category II of NUREG-058 To document the degree to which the LP&L environmental qualification program complies with the NRC environmental qualification requirements and criteria, LP&L provided equipment qualification information by letters dated November 15, 1982; November 30, 1982; January 27, 1983; February 2, 1983; February 11, 1983; February 24, 1983; and March 2, 1983, to supplement the information in Section 3.11 of the FSA Supplement 5 to the SER NUREG-0787, (SSER-5) dated June 1983, documented what the NRC staff had reviewed and evaluated regarding the Waterford 3 program for the environmental qualification of electrical equipment important to safety. This review included (1)'the systems selected for qualification, (2) the environmental conditions resulting from design basis accidents,-and (3) the methods used for qualification. In addition, LP&L added to their EQ program information demonstrating qualification of all electrical equipment located in a harsh environment, including (1) nonsafety-related equipment whose failure under postulated accident conditions could effect safety-related equipment; and (2) equipment required by the TMI action plan for post accident monitoring purposes, i accordance with RG 1.97. Justifications for interim operation in accordance with 10 CFR 50.49 would be provided if this equipment did not adquately demonstrate qualification. This qualification information and justifications were submitted to the NRC staff for review and approval before the. granting of an operating license at Waterford In addition, a license condition was required to be met by LP&L, where all installed electrical equipment important to safety, located in a harsh environment, was required to be qualified before startup from the first refueling outage. This date was later modified to the November 30, 1985, deadline. Once qualification was completed, documentation was required to be incorporated into an auditable file. On the basis of these considerations, the NRC staff concluded that satisfactory completion of the corrective actions, identified in the Appendices of SSER-5 would ensure conformance with the requirements of 10 CFR 50.4 By letter dated August 3, 1983, and March 13, 1984, LP&L had submitted the complete list of TMI action plan equipment that required qualification and the qualification status of the equipment. All the equipment located in a harsh environment was included in the qualification program. For any equipment that was not qualified, a JIO was provided. The NRC staff

m; evaluation of these JI0s was discussed and the NRC staff found LP&L's responses acceptabl By' letter dated November 7, 1983, LP&L responded with the statement that no nonsafety-related electrical equipment located in a harsh environment whose failure under postulated accident conditions could prevent satisfactory accomplishment of a safety function by safety-related equipmen The NRC staff concluded that the applicant's response to this requirement was acceptabl LP&L was required to~ evaluate all NRC I&E information notices (IENs)
applicable to equipment environmental qualification and either determined that the IENs do not apply to equipment at Waterford 3 or take corrective action to ensure the equipment is qualifie SSER-8, December 1984, described the NRC staff evaluation of LP&L's responses to outstanding EQ items and described the NRC staff position at that time for concluding that conformance with 10 CFR 50.49 had been demonstrate LP&L, in response to NRC Generic Letter 84-24, submitted their certification (W3P85-0193) of the LP&L environmental qualification program to the NRC staff on January 28, 1985, as follows: LP&L had in place and was implementing at_that time an environmental qualification program that satisfied the requirements of 10 CFR Section 50.49 as documented in the Operating License, NUREG 0787, and SSER- The Waterford Unit 3 Station had at least one path to safe shutdown using fully qualified equipment or equipment for which there was a JIO accepted by the NRC steff pending full qualification'of any equipment not fully qualifie All other Waterford Unit 3 Station equipment within the scope of 10 CFR Section 50.49 was either fully qualified or a JIO had been accepted by the'NRC pending full qualificatio In addition, SSER-8 to the Waterford SER required that an aging analyses for all nonmetallic components in safety-related mechanical equipment located in a harsh environment should'be completed before exceeding 5 percent power. The Waterford 3 low power operating license contained a license condition to ensure that this requirement be fulfille By letter from LP&L to the NRC staff dated February 15, 1985, LP&L informed the staff that the required analyses have been performed, and that on the basis of these analyses, all safety-related mechanical equipment is qualified for its intended service life and environmental condition The results of the analyses are contained in the equipment qualification file These analyses were performed in accordance with the methodology previously accepted by the NRC staff (SER Supplements 5 and 8).

The responsibilities for an auditable and complete EQF is assigned to LP&L ENS personne The NRC inspection team examined the licensee's EQF for 37 selected electrical equipment qualification documentation (EEQOs) packages to verify the qualified status of equipment within the scope of 10 CFR 50.4 In addition to comparing plant accident conditions with qualification test conditions and verifying the bases for these conditions, the NRC'
inspection team selectively reviewed areas such as (1) required post accident operating times compared to the duration of time the equipment has been demonstrated to be qualified; (2) similarity of type tested equipment to that installed in the plant; (3) evaluation
  .
. .
of adequacy of test conditions to environmental profiles of the plant; (4) aging calculations for qualified service life; (5) maintenance, and replacement part schedules; (6) the effects of insulation resistance (IR) decreases on component performance; (7) adequacy of demonstrated accuracy of equipment under plant environmental conditions; (8) evaluation of test anomalies relating to nstalled equipment configurations; and (9) applicability of EQ proelems as reported in NRC IENs and Bulletins (IEBs) and their resolutio During this review of the EQF the inspection team identified the following Potential Enforcement / Unresolved Items and Open Items, described belo (1) EEQD 42.3, Borg Warner Operators, Model 39400, UNID No.'s SI-MVAAA-405A, and SI-MVAAA-405B The above operators are located inside containment and are used

for the shutdown cooling isolation valves. The licensee considers these operators qualified to the requirements of NUREG 0588, Category I. A station modification No. SM-1398, Revision 1, was in place during this hRC inspection to upgrade these operators in establishing similarity between the plant installed models (39400) and the tested model (86090). The NRC inspection team reviewed the station modification which showed that similarity would be established once the upgrade work was completed. Completion of SM-1398, Revision 1, considers these operators qualified to the requirements of 10 CFR 50.49 NUREG 0588, Category The upgrade was scheduled for completion during the Waterford 3 first refueling outage during which this NRC inspection occurre The EEQD 42.3 file is required to document and reflect the as-built installed upgrades of SM-1398. A JIO for Borg-Warner operators, dated May 16, 1985, addressed the test anomalies, resolutions, and required modifications (reference: Waterford 3 letters, W3P85-1188 of May 16, 1985, and W3P85-3130 of November 1, 1985). The licensee's letter to NRC Region IV, dated February 2, 1987, provides further information on the licensee's basis for interim operation and further discusses the scheduled completion of the qualification for these actuator LP&L submitted.a JIO to the NRC on May 16, 1985, targeting qualification of these actuators by the November 30, 1985, deadline date of 10 CFR 50.49. During the testing program, several equipment anomalies occurred in which design changes to the type test actuator, were either implemented on the actuator type test specimens and/or required changes to the installed equipment, as follows:

: (3).EEQD8.2A, ITT Barton Pressure Transmitters, Models 763 and 764
,    Examination of an equipment qualification assessment (EQA)
contained in EEQD 8.2A, identified a deficiency concerning submergence of ITT Barton model 763/764 pressure transmitters.
 
,
The basis of qualification for this equipment is NUREG 0588, 4    Category I. The EQA did not contain documentation to show that a type test was conducted for the equipment in a submerged environment. LP&L's position was that the equipment was  l qualified for submergence based on a letter from ITT Barton who

being submerged under 30 feet of water under type test pressure conditions. The NRC inspection team during the inspection-
:. concluded that the EQF, EEQD 8.2A for ITT Barton Model 763/764 pressure transmitters, did not adequately establish   _ qualification because of failure to demonstrate. qualification based on DBA conditions, in that no type test to demonstrate qualification for submergence were contained in the EQF.

Because the EQF, EEQD 8.2A, during the time of the NRC inspection, did not adequately establish qualification for submergence of the ITT Barton models 763 and 764 for post accident conditions, and because its safety-related function during DBA/ post DBA is now rescinded by substitute transmitters above flood level, this item is considered a Potential Enforcement / Unresolved Item (50-382/8632-02).
 
(4) EEQD 3.1.A, Limitorque Motor Operators, Model SMB-00, Thomas &
Betts Blind Barrel Crimp Cable Splices The basis of qualification for these operators are NUREG 0588, Category II. During the walkdown of limitorque valve operators, it was observed that motor lead connections in operator EWF-HVAAA-220-A had been spliced with blind barrel (pigtail)
crimp splices. Qualification test reports provided for the operators contained in the EQF, EEQD 3.1A did not include qualification of the splices; there was no documentation at the time of the inspection to show that the splices had ever been separately qualifie The licensee's letter to NRC Region IV, dated February 2, 1987, provided: (1) a memorandum to the EQF, EEQD 3.1A, dated January 16, 1987; and (2) a W3B87-0300 response letter to LP&L from Limitorque Corporation, dated January 6, 1987. The above memorandum presents LP&L's position with respect to 38 Limitorque actuators which have dual voltage motors incorporating extra motor leads interconnected to field cable, utilizing Thomas and Betts, type RB-4 or RC-6, blind barrel (pigtail), crimp type, cable splice The LP&L position references the W3887-0300 letter which indicates a dual voltage motor type test, utilizing Thomas & Betts RB-4 and RC-6 crimp type splices, was performed. However, the crimp type cable splice information was not fully documented in Limitorque test report numbers 600198 and 600376 NUREG 0588, Revision 1, Category II, paragraph 5, requires that qualification documentation shall verify that each type of electrical equipment is qualified for its application and meets its specified performance requirements. The basis of qualification shall be explained to show the relationship of all facets of proof needed to support adequacy of the complete equipmen Data used to demonstrate the qualification of the equipment shall be pertinent to the application and organized in an auditable form. The documentation should include sufficient information to address those items identified in NUREG 0588, Appendix E, which includes splice The qualification documentation referred to in Limitorque test report 600198 and 600376A should be placed in EEQD3.1A and evaluated by the NRC for its applicability to demonstrate

  .. .
 
qualification of the splices for the EFW valve operators. .The qualification test reports provided in EQF, EEQD 3.1A, together with any new qualification data should be docurcented in EQF, EEQD 3.1A, to demonstrate full qualification requirement This item is considered a Potential Enforcement / Unresolved Item (50-382/8632-04).
 
(5) EEQD 3.1, Limitorque Motor 0)erations, SMB Series Switch Compartment Component Aging Requirements; Qualification of Temperature Degradable Items The basis-of qualification for these operators are NUREG-0588, Category II. It has been the practice of LP&L to energize space heaters in Limitorque valve operator limit switch compartments during plant operation. Since the heaters were not considered in the operator qualification documentation of the EQF, EEQD 3.1, precautions should be taken to ensure that the energized heaters will not affect operator qualification. One concern of the NRC inspection team was resolved during the inspection where it was found that the heaters were supplied from a Class 1E source, but double fused for purposes to protect the power supply in the event of a heater failure. Another area of concern of the NRC inspection team which had not been adequately addressed, was that no documentation was available in EQF, EEQD 3.1, to show the effects of accelerated aging of temperature degradable items within the limit switch compartment-due to temperature rise and radiant heat transfer produced by the heaters. It was also observed by the NRC inspection team that the EQF, EEQD 3.1 did not contain documentation to qualify components within the limit switch compartment separatel The licensee's letter to NRC Region IV, dated February 2, 1987, indicated a station modification program in effect which has deenergized-those heaters which were energized. The qualified life of the deenergized heaters has also been reevaluated considering the time that the heaters were energized. The results of this station modification program should be fully documented and placed in the EQF, EEQD 3.1. This item will be evaluated during a subsequent NRC inspectio This item is considered an Open Item (50-382/8632-21).
 
(6) EEQD 3.1, Limitorque Motor Operators, SMB Series, Internal Wiring Qualification Generic letter 85-15 sets a deadline of November 30, 1985, for all equipment qualification, except where the Commission has granted an extension. Additionally, IENs 83-72 and'86-03 identified several internal parts or design features of Limitorque operators as possible sources of qualification

deficiencies. The NRC inspection team found that the concern of
' unidentified wiring addressed by IEN 86-03 existed at Waterford 3 until September 1986 at which time replacement'of
'
potentially unqualified wiring was reportedly completed. A review of information provided during the NRC inspection suggested that continued operation during the~ November 30, 1985, through September 1986 time interval could be in noncompliance with 10 CFR 50.49, NUREG 0588, Category.II, paragraph 5, and Generic Letter 85-15 because'the EQF, EEQD 3.1 lacked supporting documentation to demonstrate qualification for the unidentified wiring remove The licensee's letter to NRC Region IV, dated February 2,1987, provided a time history account in LP&L's response to IEN 86-0 LP&L' implemented scheduled inspections and work on all 64 EQ Limitorque operators on January 17, 1986. By the beginning of March 1986, walkdown inspections had been completed on 27 valves and by the end of March, 55 operators had been ir.mected. Five of the remaining nine operators were completed shutly after the 1 March 1986 outage. Walkdown inspections on the remaining four operators were completed on June 19, 1986. When unidentified wire was identified, it was replaced with documented Rockbestos SIS wire, qualified for use in all harsh environments at Waterford 3, documented in EEQD 6.3 and 6.3 Representative
._ sampling of wires were removed from the operators as a result of the walkdown inspection program, and tested under simulated accident conditions. The applicable test conditions enveloped the outside containment accident environment. No unidentified wiring was identified in operators located inside containmen LP&L maintains that test results on the unidentified wiring-removed is available and that harsh environment accident conditions would not have negated valve operator. functions. The test results of the unidentified wiring removed during LP&L's walkdown inspection program, between November 30 1985, and June 19, 1986, should be fully documented to support qualification and~placed in the EQF. This item will be evaluated during a subsequent NRC inspection and is considered a Potential Enforcement / Unresolved Item (50-382/8632-05).-
(7) EEQD 14.1/52.1, BIW Cable Assembly (a) The qualification criteria for this file is NUREG 0588, Category II.

MSLB acciden The EEQD 14.1/52.1 for the BIW cable assembly contained information showing that the silicone potting compound degradable material had temperatures during an MSLB exceeding this qualification temperature, and no analyses to meet the staff requirements of NUREG-0588, Category II, paragraph 1.2(5), was contained in this file. The NRC staff requirements ask for documentation in the file to demonstrate that the MSLB test conditions exceed those postulated for the accident particularly in regards to the surface temperature of the equipment. The staff requires this additional justification documented in the file to demonstrate its required functional operabilit The licensee's letter to NRC Region IV, dated February 2, 1987, provides an additional test report No. 558-1654 performed by National Technical Systems in which the test accident profile envelopes the MSLB temperature peak. The NTS test report now contained in EQF, EEQD 14.1/52.1 will be evaluated during a subsequent NRC inspection. This item is considered Potential Enforecement/ Unresolved Item (50-382/8632-06).
 
(b) The EQMI for the BIW cable assembly, contained in the EQF, identified an area in the plant where the installed assemblies would be subjected to a service temperature that exceeds the manufacturer's temperature rating. This does not meet NUREG-0588, Category II, 4(2) requirements for periodic replacement of equipment susceptible to aging effects. The qualification documentation in the EQF should address aging to the extent that equipment with materials susceptible to aging effects should be identified, and a schedule for periodically replacing this component / material should be establishe Components identified in the EEQD 14.1/52.1 BIW cable assemblies were located in an elevated service temperature environment and no replacement schedule had been established. Only an inspection program to monitor degradation on 18-month intervals was in effect. A component replacement schedule is required, based on an air temperature measured close to the connector assemblie LP&L is in the process of determining a replacement for these assemblies on the RVH and will revise the file and EQMI accordingl This item is considered a Potential Enforcement / Unresolved Item (50-382/8632-07).

(8) EEQD 15.1, Conax Electrical Penetrations, Model 7320 10,000 Series The qualification criteria for this EQF is NUREG-0588, Category I. The EEQD uses the following Conax test reports to establish qualification: (1) No. 596, Low Voltage Power, Control and Instrumentation; (2) No. 607, Medium Voltage; and (3) No. 700, Personnel Air Loc (a) The test reports above, in the EQF, reference Conax report ISP-568 to support qualification in that the internal temperature of the penetration will not exceed the saturation temperature of the steam during the maximum temperature excursion for the MSLB. This report was not available in the EQF for revie (b) The above test reports list an acceptance criteria for IR measurements of 1 x 108 ohms for terminal blocks. There was no documentation in the EQF to show that the plant specific functional performance requirements were satisfied. The analysis which shows application of the type test configuration to the installed configuration was missing in the EQ (c) The EQMI requires an analysis of the Kulka terminal blocks with respect to IN 84-47 (EQ LOCA/MSLB tests conducted on electrical terminal blocks at Sandia National Laboratories in which a moisture film formed on the surface and resulted in degraded IR measurements between terminal points and ground). There is no indication in the EQF, EEQD 15.1 that this analysis was accomplishe The analysis in the EQF was missin The licensee's letter to NRC Region IV, dated February 2, 1987, provides further corrective action with respect to (a) above in that report IPS-568 has been placed in EQF, EEQD 15.1, and may be reviewed. Also with respect to (b) above, the licensee indicates the missing evaluation associated with IR measurements, which shows application of the test configuration to that installed, addressed in LP&L letter W3887-0222 dated February 3, 1987, is now placed in the EQF and may be reviewe With respect to (c) above, the licensee's response to IEN 84-47 has been addressed in LP&L letter W3B87-0222, and also may be reviewed in the EQF. LP&L, in letter W3887-0222, indicates that the terminal blocks in question during the NRC inspection installed in Conax electrical penetrations are utilized for non-1E circuits with the exception of those used for reactor vessel core exit thermocouples. The EQF, EEQD 15.1 should identify subassemblies, components, and parts which are not required to be EQ qualified in the electrical penetration assembl r The above items (a), (b), and (c) will be evaluated during a subsequent NRC inspection and are considered an Open Item (50-382/8632-08).
 
(9) EEQD 6.2/16.2, Okonite SKV Cable and Splices The EQF, EEQD 6.2/16.2 is set up to qualify Okonite Okoguard insulated cables and No. T95 Okonite splices used with No. 35 splicing tape. The qualification criteria for this file is NUREG-0588, Category The EQF uses Okonite test report NQRN-3 to support qualificatio (a) The EQF, contains a thermal lag analysis for the DBE accident that takes credit for the cable jacket. The file does not indicate the jacket material for the installed cable. The type test cable and splices were not jackete It did not appear, during the NRC inspection, that the thermal lag analysis was applicabl The licensee's letter to NRC Region IV, dated February 2, 1987, provided additional information with regard to the qualification of the installed jacketing material on Okonite cables. Qualification by similarity to the jacketing material on Samuel Moore cables used at Waterford 3 has now been established, referencing EEQD in the EQF, EEQD 6.2/16.2 files. The licensee now maintains qualification is established and credit can be taken for the thermal lag analysis. The analysis and qualification documentation of EEQD 6.8, with regard to jacketing qualification will be evaluated during a subsequent NRC inspectio (b) Also EQF, EEQD 6.2 contains a statement requiring verification that the installed cable service temperature, including internal heat rise, remain below 90 There is no indication in the file that this verification has been accomplishe LP&L accepted an EBASCO engineering judgement that both splices and cable are thermally protected by the cable tray enclosures and therefore no requirement for verification was needed. During the inspection, LP&L indicated that this verification statement should have been removed from the EQF, EEQD An analysis to justify negating the verification requirement is required in the EQF, and will be evaluated during a subsequent NRC inspectio Items (a) and (b) above are considered an Open Item (50-382/8632-10).

The cable is used for the neutron detector wiring to the control roo The NRC inspection team determined that the current and voltage levels utilized by this cable in its application at the Waterford 3 plant are not those used in the same range during the generic type test. A significantly lower level is required for the plant specific application. A separate calculation in the EQF would normally be required to address the functional performance of the BIW coaxial cable used in the plant specific application for EQ qualificatio However, the licensee's letter to NRC Region IV, dated February 2, 1987, identifies the BIW coaxial cables as non-EQ qualified, in that LP&L claims no requirement for this cable to survive the LOCA/MSLB acciden The EQF, EEQD 6.6 should identify subassemblies, components, and parts which are not required to be EQ qualified, with regard to the excore neutron monitoring system, and will be evaluated during a subsequent NRC inspection and is considered an Open Item (50-382/8632-12).
 
(12) EEQD 6.1, Okonite 600 VAC Cable The qualification criteria for this file is NUREG-0588, Category The EQF uses the Okonite test report NQRN- (a) The file includes a thermal lag analysis for Okonite 600 VAC cable during a DBE acciden The thermal lag E-_-.--

analysis is a generic document and should be evaluated on a case-by-case basis. The analysis is used to show that the short duration peak temperature of 414*F will not cause equipment and cable to heat up above the test temperature of 340 F. No credit is taken for the mitigating effects of cable tray, or conduit, in this calculatio However, credit is taken for the cable jacke For cables, the temperature rise associated with the peak temperature is shown to be acceptable below the cable jacket thicknes The type test report must demonstrate documented jacket performance during thermal and radiation service life aging to ensure its integrity prior to survival of the DBE accident simulatio Test report NQRN-1 does not identify the jacket conditions
    -
at the conclusion of the thermal and radiation service life agin The thermal lag analysis should reference documented service life aging results of the cabl The licensee letter to NRC Region IV, dated February 2, 1987, indicated that the jacketing material on Okonite 600VAC cable has been qualified by similarity to the jacketing material on Samuel Moore cables used at the Waterford 3 plant, qualified as demonstrated in EQF, EEQD 6.8. This vindicates credit for the thermal lag analysis approach found in the EQF, EEQD 6.1 for Okonite 600 VAC cabl The analysis and qualification documentation of EEQD 6.8, with regard to jacketing qualification, will be evaluated during a subsequent NRC inspectio (b) Submergence, including demonstration of acceptable IR measurements during post submergence voltage withstand tests are contained in a separate test report. The test report is not referenced in the file. This item is a documentation deficienc (c) The EEQD 6.1 references a test report to support the cable temperature rise due to ampacity heating of the cable. The report document is not in the file. This is a documentation deficienc The above items (a), (b), and (c) are considered an Open Item (50-382/8632-13).

The Waterford 3 pull card-system maintains records of cable identification and location within the plan No Potential Enforcement / Unresolved Items or Open Items were identifie (14) EEQD 8.3C, General Atomic Radiation Detector, Model RD-23, UNID No. ARM-IRD-5400AS The above detector is located outside containment and is used as an area radiation monitor for the reactor building. The Waterford 3 plant considers the detector qualified to 10 CFR 50.49. Qualification will be established when the EQF, EEQD 8.3C is upgraded to reflect the correct Rockbestos test report and performance data for the BIW coaxial cable used in the reactor building area radiation monitoring system. The licensee letter to NRC Region IV, dated February 2, 1987, indicated this information has been placed in the EQF, and will be reviewed during a subsequent NRC inspection. This item is considered an Open Item (50-382/8632-18).
 
g. IE Information Notices and Bulletins The NRC inspector team evaluated the licensee's activities related to the review of EQ-related IENs and IEBs. The NRC inspection team review included examination of the licensee's procedures and EQ documentation files relative to IENs and IEBs. The procedures reviewed determined that the licensee does have a system for distributing, reviewing, and evaluating IENs and IEBs relative to equipment within the scope of 10 CFR 50.49 (refer to paragraph 4.b).
 
During the review of the licensee's EQF, however, the inspection team identified one concern regarding the licensee's implementation of IEN 84-47 involving EQ LOCA/MSLB tests on electrical terminal block This concern is identified in paragraph 4.f(8)(c) of thts report, with regard to the EEQD 15.1 documentation review by the NRC inspection tea By letter dated September 26, 1984, the applicant informed the staff that IENs 82-03, 82-52, 83-45 and 83-72, which are related to equipment environmental qualification, have been addresse LP&L explicitly tracks the resolution of IENs, IEBs, and IE circular The NRC inspection team evaluations with respect to each IEN are addressed under the paragraphs of this report, related to each EQF, EEQD (paragraph 4.f) and each component / equipment (paragraph 4.h)

During the NRC walkdown inspection, cable splices to the above motors were-observed. The qualification basis for these motors is NUREG 0588, Category I. The above motor and heater connections were installed using (1) Okonite in-line butt splices; (2) Okonite V-type taped motor connection splices; and (3) Okonite bolted splices for motor heater application (a) The Okonite in-line bolt splices, used for motor power connections of GE motor UNID No. CVC-EMTR-31AB-4C1, were fully supported by documentation in the EQF, EEQD 6.2/1 . ,.
 
(b) The documentation for Okonite V-type taped motor connection splices,'used for power connections on General Electric (GE) motors UNID No. EFW-EMTR-38-2A,
   -SI-EMTR-3AB-3A, were found in the EQF, EEQD 6.2/16.2, 4.3, and 4.12. However, the documentation file did not adequately support qualification to demonstrate similarity between the type tested splices and those installe LP&L's letter to NRC Region IV provided an additional test report No. PEI-TR-82-4-29 which addresses the V-type Okonite splice configuration installed at Waterford This item will be evaluated during a subsequent NRC inspection (refer to paragraph 4.h(1) of this report).
 
This item is considered an Open Item (50-382/8632-19).
 
(c) Also, the Okonite bolted type splices for heater connections on GE motor UNID No. CVC-EMTR-31AB-4C1, contained no supporting qualification documentation in the EQF, EEQD 6.2, 16.2, or 4.14. The EQF for the above CVC charging pump motors do not adequately establish qualification because of failure to demonstrate similarity between the type tested nuclear qualified motor connection splices and the Okonite bolted type taped splices installed at the Waterford 3 plant. Lack of qualification documentaticn in the file is considered a Potential Enforcement / Unresolved Item (50-382/8632-03),
(3) UNID No. SI-MVAAA-331A, Limitorque Motor Operators, Series SMB-2, Improper Installation / Inadequate Maintenance of Okonite V-type Taped Cable Splices During the NRC walkdown inspection, it was observed that the Okonite V-type taped cable splices on motor leads inside Limitorque operator SI-MVAAA-331-A were in contact with the limit switch compartment energized space heater and that the tape had begun to deteriorat The licensee's letter to NRC Region IV, dated February 2, 1987, indicated that the LP&L Waterford 3 maintenance department had performed corrective actio This item is considered an Open Item and will be closed out during an NRC subsequent inspection (50-382/8632-20).

,
  ,
 
using these two unidentified terminal blocks. The terminal blocks observed could not be identified as to manufacturer and model, and EQF, EQQD 15.1 did not contain documentation to demonstrate similarity between any type test and these installed components. The licensee's letter to NRC Region IV, dated February 2, 1987, indicated these terminal blocks were initially installed for measuring internal temperature of the penetrations containing power cables, and are classified as nonsafety-related, non-EQ qualifie LP&L should completely identify components by description (list, etc.) in the EQF, EEQD 15.1 to clarify what subassemblies, parts, and components to the model 7320-10003-02 electrical penetrations are considered EQ qualified, as this equipment appears as only one item on the EQML-E. LP&L should fully identify and document that these terminal blocks are not part of the penetration assembly that requires qualification. This item is considered an Open Item (50-382/0632-23).
 
(b) During the NRC walkdown inspection, the team also observed that the outside containment penetrations CB-EPEN 316-117 and CB-EPEM 316-142, had the polysulfone ends on the modules cracked with pieces of some ends missing and displayed damage. LP&L indicated during the NRC inspection that an engineering evaluation of the problem had been performed but no results or conclusion had been finalized or documented. The licensee's letter to NRC Region IV, dated February 2, 1987, provided additional information with regards to cracked polysulfone resilient seal LP&L's electrical penetration generic problems and resolutions had been documented on March 9, 1984, as discussed with the Conax field service enginee This documentation is now in EQF, EEQD 15.1 and may be reviewe This item is considered an Open Item (50-382/8632-09).

Purpose The purpose of this inspection was to review the licensee's implementation of the requirements of 10 CFR 50.4 . Background NUREG-0588 was issued in December 1979 to promote an orderly and systematic implementation of equipment qualification programs by industry and to provide guidance to the NRC staff for its use in ongoing licensing review The positions contained in NUREG-0588 provided guidance on (1) how to establish environmental service conditions, (2) how to select methods that are considered appropriate for qualifying equipment in areas

-
,

l of nuclear plants, and (3) other areas such as margin, aging, and documentatio A final rule on environmental qualification of electric equipment important to safety for nuclear power plants became effective on February 22, 1983. The rule 10 CFR 50.49, specifies the requirements to be met for demonstrating the environmental qualification of electrical equipment located in a harsh environment. In accordance with 10 CFR 50.49, paragraph (k), the same electrical equipment at Waterford 3 may be qualified in accordance with the acceptance criteria specified in Category II of NUREG-058 To document the degree to which the LP&L environmental qualification program complies with the NRC environmental qualification requirements and criteria, LP&L provided equipment qualification information by letters dated November 15, 1982; November 30, 1982; January 27, 1983; February 2, 1983; February 11, 1983; February 24, 1983; and March 2, 1983, to supplement the information in Section 3.11 of the FSA Supplement 5 to the SER NUREG-0787, (SSER-5) dated June 1983, documented what the NRC staff had reviewed and evaluated regarding the Waterford 3 program for the environmental qualification of electrical equipment important to safety. This review included (1)'the systems selected for qualification, (2) the environmental conditions resulting from design basis accidents,-and (3) the methods used for qualification. In addition, LP&L added to their EQ program information demonstrating qualification of all electrical equipment located in a harsh environment, including (1) nonsafety-related equipment whose failure under postulated accident conditions could effect safety-related equipment; and (2) equipment required by the TMI action plan for post accident monitoring purposes, i accordance with RG 1.97. Justifications for interim operation in accordance with 10 CFR 50.49 would be provided if this equipment did not adquately demonstrate qualification. This qualification information and justifications were submitted to the NRC staff for review and approval before the. granting of an operating license at Waterford In addition, a license condition was required to be met by LP&L, where all installed electrical equipment important to safety, located in a harsh environment, was required to be qualified before startup from the first refueling outage. This date was later modified to the November 30, 1985, deadline. Once qualification was completed, documentation was required to be incorporated into an auditable file. On the basis of these considerations, the NRC staff concluded that satisfactory completion of the corrective actions, identified in the Appendices of SSER-5 would ensure conformance with the requirements of 10 CFR 50.4 By letter dated August 3, 1983, and March 13, 1984, LP&L had submitted the complete list of TMI action plan equipment that required qualification and the qualification status of the equipment. All the equipment located in a harsh environment was included in the qualification program. For any equipment that was not qualified, a JIO was provided. The NRC staff

F:.; .

m; evaluation of these JI0s was discussed and the NRC staff found LP&L's responses acceptabl By' letter dated November 7, 1983, LP&L responded with the statement that no nonsafety-related electrical equipment located in a harsh environment whose failure under postulated accident conditions could prevent satisfactory accomplishment of a safety function by safety-related equipmen The NRC staff concluded that the applicant's response to this requirement was acceptabl LP&L was required to~ evaluate all NRC I&E information notices (IENs) applicable to equipment environmental qualification and either determined that the IENs do not apply to equipment at Waterford 3 or take corrective action to ensure the equipment is qualifie SSER-8, December 1984, described the NRC staff evaluation of LP&L's responses to outstanding EQ items and described the NRC staff position at that time for concluding that conformance with 10 CFR 50.49 had been demonstrate LP&L, in response to NRC Generic Letter 84-24, submitted their certification (W3P85-0193) of the LP&L environmental qualification program to the NRC staff on January 28, 1985, as follows: LP&L had in place and was implementing at_that time an environmental qualification program that satisfied the requirements of 10 CFR Section 50.49 as documented in the Operating License, NUREG 0787, and SSER- The Waterford Unit 3 Station had at least one path to safe shutdown using fully qualified equipment or equipment for which there was a JIO accepted by the NRC steff pending full qualification'of any equipment not fully qualifie All other Waterford Unit 3 Station equipment within the scope of 10 CFR Section 50.49 was either fully qualified or a JIO had been accepted by the'NRC pending full qualificatio In addition, SSER-8 to the Waterford SER required that an aging analyses for all nonmetallic components in safety-related mechanical equipment located in a harsh environment should'be completed before exceeding 5 percent power. The Waterford 3 low power operating license contained a license condition to ensure that this requirement be fulfille By letter from LP&L to the NRC staff dated February 15, 1985, LP&L informed the staff that the required analyses have been performed, and that on the basis of these analyses, all safety-related mechanical equipment is qualified for its intended service life and environmental condition The results of the analyses are contained in the equipment qualification file These analyses were performed in accordance with the methodology previously accepted by the NRC staff (SER Supplements 5 and 8).

 'Waterford 3 EQML-E submittal dated October 25, 1985. . These-components.were also' found on the current EQML-E dated November 12,
 ,1986, Revision 4.-

Based ons the'NRClinspection tea'm's review, the 10 CFR 50.49 EQML-E is considered satisfactor Environmental Qualification Documentation Files The licensee's Equ'ipment' Qualification File (EQF) has been established and is being maintained to meet the requirements of 10 CFR 50.49 at-the Waterford Unit 3 Steam Electric Station. The requirements.for establishing, controlling, maintaining, routing,- filing; and updating the EQF, are contained in LP&L procedures

 '(1) PMP-325, Revision-1,." Project Management Procedure Equipment Qualification"; (2) UNT-1-015, Revision 0, " Administrative Procedure
 - Equipment Qualification Program"; and (3) N0P-009, Revision 0.1,
 " Nuclear Operations Procedures - Equipment Qualification". Other LP&L procedures which govern EQF activities are listed in paragraph 4.b of this report. The responsibilities for an auditable and complete EQF is assigned to LP&L ENS personne The NRC inspection team examined the licensee's EQF for 37 selected electrical equipment qualification documentation (EEQOs) packages to verify the qualified status of equipment within the scope of 10 CFR 50.4 In addition to comparing plant accident conditions with qualification test conditions and verifying the bases for these conditions, the NRC'

inspection team selectively reviewed areas such as (1) required post accident operating times compared to the duration of time the equipment has been demonstrated to be qualified; (2) similarity of type tested equipment to that installed in the plant; (3) evaluation

 .
. .

of adequacy of test conditions to environmental profiles of the plant; (4) aging calculations for qualified service life; (5) maintenance, and replacement part schedules; (6) the effects of insulation resistance (IR) decreases on component performance; (7) adequacy of demonstrated accuracy of equipment under plant environmental conditions; (8) evaluation of test anomalies relating to nstalled equipment configurations; and (9) applicability of EQ proelems as reported in NRC IENs and Bulletins (IEBs) and their resolutio During this review of the EQF the inspection team identified the following Potential Enforcement / Unresolved Items and Open Items, described belo (1) EEQD 42.3, Borg Warner Operators, Model 39400, UNID No.'s SI-MVAAA-405A, and SI-MVAAA-405B The above operators are located inside containment and are used > for the shutdown cooling isolation valves. The licensee considers these operators qualified to the requirements of NUREG 0588, Category I. A station modification No. SM-1398, Revision 1, was in place during this hRC inspection to upgrade these operators in establishing similarity between the plant installed models (39400) and the tested model (86090). The NRC inspection team reviewed the station modification which showed that similarity would be established once the upgrade work was completed. Completion of SM-1398, Revision 1, considers these operators qualified to the requirements of 10 CFR 50.49 NUREG 0588, Category The upgrade was scheduled for completion during the Waterford 3 first refueling outage during which this NRC inspection occurre The EEQD 42.3 file is required to document and reflect the as-built installed upgrades of SM-1398. A JIO for Borg-Warner operators, dated May 16, 1985, addressed the test anomalies, resolutions, and required modifications (reference: Waterford 3 letters, W3P85-1188 of May 16, 1985, and W3P85-3130 of November 1, 1985). The licensee's letter to NRC Region IV, dated February 2, 1987, provides further information on the licensee's basis for interim operation and further discusses the scheduled completion of the qualification for these actuator LP&L submitted.a JIO to the NRC on May 16, 1985, targeting qualification of these actuators by the November 30, 1985, deadline date of 10 CFR 50.49. During the testing program, several equipment anomalies occurred in which design changes to the type test actuator, were either implemented on the actuator type test specimens and/or required changes to the installed equipment, as follows:

18 - The.EQF, EEQD 4.12 and 4.13 for Siemens-Allis HPSI pump motors .

did not establish qualification during the time of the NRC inspection because the qualification documentation was incomplete and not available in the EQF to support qualification. This item is considered an Open Item (50-382/8632-22).

.  : (3).EEQD8.2A, ITT Barton Pressure Transmitters, Models 763 and 764 , Examination of an equipment qualification assessment (EQA) contained in EEQD 8.2A, identified a deficiency concerning submergence of ITT Barton model 763/764 pressure transmitters.

, The basis of qualification for this equipment is NUREG 0588, 4 Category I. The EQA did not contain documentation to show that a type test was conducted for the equipment in a submerged environment. LP&L's position was that the equipment was l qualified for submergence based on a letter from ITT Barton who ' j i had performed a steam test at a prescribed pressure. The ITT:  ; Barton letter claimed that this test equated to the equipment - being submerged under 30 feet of water under type test pressure conditions. The NRC inspection team during the inspection-

. concluded that the EQF, EEQD 8.2A for ITT Barton Model 763/764 pressure transmitters, did not adequately establish _ qualification because of failure to demonstrate. qualification based on DBA conditions, in that no type test to demonstrate qualification for submergence were contained in the EQF.

- LP&L's letter to NRC Region IV dated February 2, 1987, provided

'

engineering evaluation letter No. W3B87-0218, dated January 29,

<   1987, " Analysis of Reactor Containment Building Sump Level Indication for Submergence." This document now forms an

integral part of EEQD 8.2A for the Waterford 3 ITT Barton , pressure transmitter, models 764 and 764, used for post accident i monitoring purposes. Analysis W3887-0218 now indicates that i

containment sump level transmitters SP-ILT-6705A and B, located
.

approximately 5 feet below the accident flood level, will'not be ' used for DBA/ post DBA conditions. Analysis W3B87-0218 also indicates that SIS sump level transmitters SI-ILT-7145A and

   ~

SI-ILT-7145B, located above the postulated accident flood level - will be used in lieu,of SP-ILT-6705A and B, during the post accident period. SI-ILT-7145A and B will therefore not be required to be submergence qualifie LP&L indicates that the EQF, EEQD 8.2A will require modification , to incorporate the above changes. Also, the emergency operating

procedures will be reviewed to clarify use of the changed post accident indicating instruments. EQF, EEQD 8.2A will be i required to reflect the correct accident operating times for the appropriate transmitters.

, .

Because the EQF, EEQD 8.2A, during the time of the NRC inspection, did not adequately establish qualification for submergence of the ITT Barton models 763 and 764 for post accident conditions, and because its safety-related function during DBA/ post DBA is now rescinded by substitute transmitters above flood level, this item is considered a Potential Enforcement / Unresolved Item (50-382/8632-02).

(4) EEQD 3.1.A, Limitorque Motor Operators, Model SMB-00, Thomas & Betts Blind Barrel Crimp Cable Splices The basis of qualification for these operators are NUREG 0588, Category II. During the walkdown of limitorque valve operators, it was observed that motor lead connections in operator EWF-HVAAA-220-A had been spliced with blind barrel (pigtail) crimp splices. Qualification test reports provided for the operators contained in the EQF, EEQD 3.1A did not include qualification of the splices; there was no documentation at the time of the inspection to show that the splices had ever been separately qualifie The licensee's letter to NRC Region IV, dated February 2, 1987, provided: (1) a memorandum to the EQF, EEQD 3.1A, dated January 16, 1987; and (2) a W3B87-0300 response letter to LP&L from Limitorque Corporation, dated January 6, 1987. The above memorandum presents LP&L's position with respect to 38 Limitorque actuators which have dual voltage motors incorporating extra motor leads interconnected to field cable, utilizing Thomas and Betts, type RB-4 or RC-6, blind barrel (pigtail), crimp type, cable splice The LP&L position references the W3887-0300 letter which indicates a dual voltage motor type test, utilizing Thomas & Betts RB-4 and RC-6 crimp type splices, was performed. However, the crimp type cable splice information was not fully documented in Limitorque test report numbers 600198 and 600376 NUREG 0588, Revision 1, Category II, paragraph 5, requires that qualification documentation shall verify that each type of electrical equipment is qualified for its application and meets its specified performance requirements. The basis of qualification shall be explained to show the relationship of all facets of proof needed to support adequacy of the complete equipmen Data used to demonstrate the qualification of the equipment shall be pertinent to the application and organized in an auditable form. The documentation should include sufficient information to address those items identified in NUREG 0588, Appendix E, which includes splice The qualification documentation referred to in Limitorque test report 600198 and 600376A should be placed in EEQD3.1A and evaluated by the NRC for its applicability to demonstrate

,

.. .

qualification of the splices for the EFW valve operators. .The qualification test reports provided in EQF, EEQD 3.1A, together with any new qualification data should be docurcented in EQF, EEQD 3.1A, to demonstrate full qualification requirement This item is considered a Potential Enforcement / Unresolved Item (50-382/8632-04).

(5) EEQD 3.1, Limitorque Motor 0)erations, SMB Series Switch Compartment Component Aging Requirements; Qualification of Temperature Degradable Items The basis-of qualification for these operators are NUREG-0588, Category II. It has been the practice of LP&L to energize space heaters in Limitorque valve operator limit switch compartments during plant operation. Since the heaters were not considered in the operator qualification documentation of the EQF, EEQD 3.1, precautions should be taken to ensure that the energized heaters will not affect operator qualification. One concern of the NRC inspection team was resolved during the inspection where it was found that the heaters were supplied from a Class 1E source, but double fused for purposes to protect the power supply in the event of a heater failure. Another area of concern of the NRC inspection team which had not been adequately addressed, was that no documentation was available in EQF, EEQD 3.1, to show the effects of accelerated aging of temperature degradable items within the limit switch compartment-due to temperature rise and radiant heat transfer produced by the heaters. It was also observed by the NRC inspection team that the EQF, EEQD 3.1 did not contain documentation to qualify components within the limit switch compartment separatel The licensee's letter to NRC Region IV, dated February 2, 1987, indicated a station modification program in effect which has deenergized-those heaters which were energized. The qualified life of the deenergized heaters has also been reevaluated considering the time that the heaters were energized. The results of this station modification program should be fully documented and placed in the EQF, EEQD 3.1. This item will be evaluated during a subsequent NRC inspectio This item is considered an Open Item (50-382/8632-21).

(6) EEQD 3.1, Limitorque Motor Operators, SMB Series, Internal Wiring Qualification Generic letter 85-15 sets a deadline of November 30, 1985, for all equipment qualification, except where the Commission has granted an extension. Additionally, IENs 83-72 and'86-03 identified several internal parts or design features of Limitorque operators as possible sources of qualification

deficiencies. The NRC inspection team found that the concern of

' unidentified wiring addressed by IEN 86-03 existed at Waterford 3 until September 1986 at which time replacement'of
'

potentially unqualified wiring was reportedly completed. A review of information provided during the NRC inspection suggested that continued operation during the~ November 30, 1985, through September 1986 time interval could be in noncompliance with 10 CFR 50.49, NUREG 0588, Category.II, paragraph 5, and Generic Letter 85-15 because'the EQF, EEQD 3.1 lacked supporting documentation to demonstrate qualification for the unidentified wiring remove The licensee's letter to NRC Region IV, dated February 2,1987, provided a time history account in LP&L's response to IEN 86-0 LP&L' implemented scheduled inspections and work on all 64 EQ Limitorque operators on January 17, 1986. By the beginning of March 1986, walkdown inspections had been completed on 27 valves and by the end of March, 55 operators had been ir.mected. Five of the remaining nine operators were completed shutly after the 1 March 1986 outage. Walkdown inspections on the remaining four operators were completed on June 19, 1986. When unidentified wire was identified, it was replaced with documented Rockbestos SIS wire, qualified for use in all harsh environments at Waterford 3, documented in EEQD 6.3 and 6.3 Representative

._ sampling of wires were removed from the operators as a result of the walkdown inspection program, and tested under simulated accident conditions. The applicable test conditions enveloped the outside containment accident environment. No unidentified wiring was identified in operators located inside containmen LP&L maintains that test results on the unidentified wiring-removed is available and that harsh environment accident conditions would not have negated valve operator. functions. The test results of the unidentified wiring removed during LP&L's walkdown inspection program, between November 30 1985, and June 19, 1986, should be fully documented to support qualification and~placed in the EQF. This item will be evaluated during a subsequent NRC inspection and is considered a Potential Enforcement / Unresolved Item (50-382/8632-05).-
(7) EEQD 14.1/52.1, BIW Cable Assembly (a) The qualification criteria for this file is NUREG 0588, Category II. The EQF contains an Isomedix test report on radiation aging performed for Litton Precision Product The EEQD 14.1/52.1 is intended to qualify a connector and flex conduit in addition to the cabl '

Appendix II contained in EEQD 14.1/52.1 included an EBASCO memo describing the thermal lag analysis done on the assembly. The analysis indicates that the silicone potting compound may be subjected to temperatures as high as -

 . l 404 The EQF does not address the effects of this temperature on the complete cable / connector assembly whose ,

qualification temperature only qualifies to 340*F for a ' MSLB acciden The EEQD 14.1/52.1 for the BIW cable assembly contained information showing that the silicone potting compound degradable material had temperatures during an MSLB exceeding this qualification temperature, and no analyses to meet the staff requirements of NUREG-0588, Category II, paragraph 1.2(5), was contained in this file. The NRC staff requirements ask for documentation in the file to demonstrate that the MSLB test conditions exceed those postulated for the accident particularly in regards to the surface temperature of the equipment. The staff requires this additional justification documented in the file to demonstrate its required functional operabilit The licensee's letter to NRC Region IV, dated February 2, 1987, provides an additional test report No. 558-1654 performed by National Technical Systems in which the test accident profile envelopes the MSLB temperature peak. The NTS test report now contained in EQF, EEQD 14.1/52.1 will be evaluated during a subsequent NRC inspection. This item is considered Potential Enforecement/ Unresolved Item (50-382/8632-06).

(b) The EQMI for the BIW cable assembly, contained in the EQF, identified an area in the plant where the installed assemblies would be subjected to a service temperature that exceeds the manufacturer's temperature rating. This does not meet NUREG-0588, Category II, 4(2) requirements for periodic replacement of equipment susceptible to aging effects. The qualification documentation in the EQF should address aging to the extent that equipment with materials susceptible to aging effects should be identified, and a schedule for periodically replacing this component / material should be establishe Components identified in the EEQD 14.1/52.1 BIW cable assemblies were located in an elevated service temperature environment and no replacement schedule had been established. Only an inspection program to monitor degradation on 18-month intervals was in effect. A component replacement schedule is required, based on an air temperature measured close to the connector assemblie LP&L is in the process of determining a replacement for these assemblies on the RVH and will revise the file and EQMI accordingl This item is considered a Potential Enforcement / Unresolved Item (50-382/8632-07).

(8) EEQD 15.1, Conax Electrical Penetrations, Model 7320 10,000 Series The qualification criteria for this EQF is NUREG-0588, Category I. The EEQD uses the following Conax test reports to establish qualification: (1) No. 596, Low Voltage Power, Control and Instrumentation; (2) No. 607, Medium Voltage; and (3) No. 700, Personnel Air Loc (a) The test reports above, in the EQF, reference Conax report ISP-568 to support qualification in that the internal temperature of the penetration will not exceed the saturation temperature of the steam during the maximum temperature excursion for the MSLB. This report was not available in the EQF for revie (b) The above test reports list an acceptance criteria for IR measurements of 1 x 108 ohms for terminal blocks. There was no documentation in the EQF to show that the plant specific functional performance requirements were satisfied. The analysis which shows application of the type test configuration to the installed configuration was missing in the EQ (c) The EQMI requires an analysis of the Kulka terminal blocks with respect to IN 84-47 (EQ LOCA/MSLB tests conducted on electrical terminal blocks at Sandia National Laboratories in which a moisture film formed on the surface and resulted in degraded IR measurements between terminal points and ground). There is no indication in the EQF, EEQD 15.1 that this analysis was accomplishe The analysis in the EQF was missin The licensee's letter to NRC Region IV, dated February 2, 1987, provides further corrective action with respect to (a) above in that report IPS-568 has been placed in EQF, EEQD 15.1, and may be reviewed. Also with respect to (b) above, the licensee indicates the missing evaluation associated with IR measurements, which shows application of the test configuration to that installed, addressed in LP&L letter W3887-0222 dated February 3, 1987, is now placed in the EQF and may be reviewe With respect to (c) above, the licensee's response to IEN 84-47 has been addressed in LP&L letter W3B87-0222, and also may be reviewed in the EQF. LP&L, in letter W3887-0222, indicates that the terminal blocks in question during the NRC inspection installed in Conax electrical penetrations are utilized for non-1E circuits with the exception of those used for reactor vessel core exit thermocouples. The EQF, EEQD 15.1 should identify subassemblies, components, and parts which are not required to be EQ qualified in the electrical penetration assembl r The above items (a), (b), and (c) will be evaluated during a subsequent NRC inspection and are considered an Open Item (50-382/8632-08).

(9) EEQD 6.2/16.2, Okonite SKV Cable and Splices The EQF, EEQD 6.2/16.2 is set up to qualify Okonite Okoguard insulated cables and No. T95 Okonite splices used with No. 35 splicing tape. The qualification criteria for this file is NUREG-0588, Category The EQF uses Okonite test report NQRN-3 to support qualificatio (a) The EQF, contains a thermal lag analysis for the DBE accident that takes credit for the cable jacket. The file does not indicate the jacket material for the installed cable. The type test cable and splices were not jackete It did not appear, during the NRC inspection, that the thermal lag analysis was applicabl The licensee's letter to NRC Region IV, dated February 2, 1987, provided additional information with regard to the qualification of the installed jacketing material on Okonite cables. Qualification by similarity to the jacketing material on Samuel Moore cables used at Waterford 3 has now been established, referencing EEQD in the EQF, EEQD 6.2/16.2 files. The licensee now maintains qualification is established and credit can be taken for the thermal lag analysis. The analysis and qualification documentation of EEQD 6.8, with regard to jacketing qualification will be evaluated during a subsequent NRC inspectio (b) Also EQF, EEQD 6.2 contains a statement requiring verification that the installed cable service temperature, including internal heat rise, remain below 90 There is no indication in the file that this verification has been accomplishe LP&L accepted an EBASCO engineering judgement that both splices and cable are thermally protected by the cable tray enclosures and therefore no requirement for verification was needed. During the inspection, LP&L indicated that this verification statement should have been removed from the EQF, EEQD An analysis to justify negating the verification requirement is required in the EQF, and will be evaluated during a subsequent NRC inspectio Items (a) and (b) above are considered an Open Item (50-382/8632-10).

(10) EEQD 39.3, Rosemount Resistance Temperature Detectors (RTDs)

Model 104-1619-6 ' These RTDs monitor reactor coolant temperatures and send input signals to the core protection calculator The qualification criteria for this file is NUREG 0588, Category I At the time of the NRC inspection, the file indicated that these RTDs were required to be qualified for submergence, but file documents demonstrated they were not tested for submergence. During the NRC inspection, the licensee showed that these instruments are located above the flood level of -1.2 feet mean sea level and do not require submergence qualification. The licensee's letter to NRC Region IV, dated February 2, 1987, provided corrected pages to EEQD 39.3 showing the submergence requirement for EQF, EEQD 39.3 rescinded. This file will be reviewed during a subsequent NRC inspection and is considered an Open Item (50-382/8632-11).

(11) EEQD 6.6, BIW Coaxial Cable The qualification criteria for this file is NUREG-0588, Category I. The file uses the BIW test report B912 with supplemental documentation from the Franklin test report F-C3859-1. The cable is used for the neutron detector wiring to the control roo The NRC inspection team determined that the current and voltage levels utilized by this cable in its application at the Waterford 3 plant are not those used in the same range during the generic type test. A significantly lower level is required for the plant specific application. A separate calculation in the EQF would normally be required to address the functional performance of the BIW coaxial cable used in the plant specific application for EQ qualificatio However, the licensee's letter to NRC Region IV, dated February 2, 1987, identifies the BIW coaxial cables as non-EQ qualified, in that LP&L claims no requirement for this cable to survive the LOCA/MSLB acciden The EQF, EEQD 6.6 should identify subassemblies, components, and parts which are not required to be EQ qualified, with regard to the excore neutron monitoring system, and will be evaluated during a subsequent NRC inspection and is considered an Open Item (50-382/8632-12).

(12) EEQD 6.1, Okonite 600 VAC Cable The qualification criteria for this file is NUREG-0588, Category The EQF uses the Okonite test report NQRN- (a) The file includes a thermal lag analysis for Okonite 600 VAC cable during a DBE acciden The thermal lag E-_-.--

analysis is a generic document and should be evaluated on a case-by-case basis. The analysis is used to show that the short duration peak temperature of 414*F will not cause equipment and cable to heat up above the test temperature of 340 F. No credit is taken for the mitigating effects of cable tray, or conduit, in this calculatio However, credit is taken for the cable jacke For cables, the temperature rise associated with the peak temperature is shown to be acceptable below the cable jacket thicknes The type test report must demonstrate documented jacket performance during thermal and radiation service life aging to ensure its integrity prior to survival of the DBE accident simulatio Test report NQRN-1 does not identify the jacket conditions

at the conclusion of the thermal and radiation service life agin The thermal lag analysis should reference documented service life aging results of the cabl The licensee letter to NRC Region IV, dated February 2, 1987, indicated that the jacketing material on Okonite 600VAC cable has been qualified by similarity to the jacketing material on Samuel Moore cables used at the Waterford 3 plant, qualified as demonstrated in EQF, EEQD 6.8. This vindicates credit for the thermal lag analysis approach found in the EQF, EEQD 6.1 for Okonite 600 VAC cabl The analysis and qualification documentation of EEQD 6.8, with regard to jacketing qualification, will be evaluated during a subsequent NRC inspectio (b) Submergence, including demonstration of acceptable IR measurements during post submergence voltage withstand tests are contained in a separate test report. The test report is not referenced in the file. This item is a documentation deficienc (c) The EEQD 6.1 references a test report to support the cable temperature rise due to ampacity heating of the cable. The report document is not in the file. This is a documentation deficienc The above items (a), (b), and (c) are considered an Open Item (50-382/8632-13).

The Waterford 3 plant considers the detector qualified to 10 CFR 50.49. Qualification will be established when the EQF, EEQD 8.3C is upgraded to reflect the correct Rockbestos test report and performance data for the BIW coaxial cable used in the reactor building area radiation monitoring system. The licensee letter to NRC Region IV, dated February 2, 1987, indicated this information has been placed in the EQF, and will be reviewed during a subsequent NRC inspection. This item is considered an Open Item (50-382/8632-18).

g. IE Information Notices and Bulletins The NRC inspector team evaluated the licensee's activities related to the review of EQ-related IENs and IEBs. The NRC inspection team review included examination of the licensee's procedures and EQ documentation files relative to IENs and IEBs. The procedures reviewed determined that the licensee does have a system for distributing, reviewing, and evaluating IENs and IEBs relative to equipment within the scope of 10 CFR 50.49 (refer to paragraph 4.b).

During the review of the licensee's EQF, however, the inspection team identified one concern regarding the licensee's implementation of IEN 84-47 involving EQ LOCA/MSLB tests on electrical terminal block This concern is identified in paragraph 4.f(8)(c) of thts report, with regard to the EEQD 15.1 documentation review by the NRC inspection tea By letter dated September 26, 1984, the applicant informed the staff that IENs 82-03, 82-52, 83-45 and 83-72, which are related to equipment environmental qualification, have been addresse LP&L explicitly tracks the resolution of IENs, IEBs, and IE circular The NRC inspection team evaluations with respect to each IEN are addressed under the paragraphs of this report, related to each EQF, EEQD (paragraph 4.f) and each component / equipment (paragraph 4.h)

  (1) Limitorque Motor' Operators, Series SMB, Okonite V-Type Taped Cable Splices During the NRC walkdown inspection, motor lead splices in the above Limitorque operators were observed. The splices were Okonite V-type taped splices. -The Okonite V-type taped splice documentation was found in EQF, EEQD 6.2/16.2; however, the file did not adequately support qualification to demonstrate similarity between the type tested splices and those installe LP&L's letter to NRC Region IV provided an additional test report No. PEI-TR-82-4-29 which addresses the V-type taped Okonite splice configuration installed at Waterford This item will be evaluated during a subsequent NRC inspectio This item is considered an Open Item (50-382/8632-19).

(2) UNID No.- CVC-EMTR-31AB-4C1, EFW-EMTR-38-2A, and SI-EMTR-3AB-3A, General Electric Motors (Model No.'s SK6404AK238V and SK811045C25), and Seimens-Allis Motor (Model No. 113) During the NRC walkdown inspection, cable splices to the above motors were-observed. The qualification basis for these motors is NUREG 0588, Category I. The above motor and heater connections were installed using (1) Okonite in-line butt splices; (2) Okonite V-type taped motor connection splices; and (3) Okonite bolted splices for motor heater application (a) The Okonite in-line bolt splices, used for motor power connections of GE motor UNID No. CVC-EMTR-31AB-4C1, were fully supported by documentation in the EQF, EEQD 6.2/1 . ,.

(b) The documentation for Okonite V-type taped motor connection splices,'used for power connections on General Electric (GE) motors UNID No. EFW-EMTR-38-2A,
 -SI-EMTR-3AB-3A, were found in the EQF, EEQD 6.2/16.2, 4.3, and 4.12. However, the documentation file did not adequately support qualification to demonstrate similarity between the type tested splices and those installe LP&L's letter to NRC Region IV provided an additional test report No. PEI-TR-82-4-29 which addresses the V-type Okonite splice configuration installed at Waterford This item will be evaluated during a subsequent NRC inspection (refer to paragraph 4.h(1) of this report).

This item is considered an Open Item (50-382/8632-19).

(c) Also, the Okonite bolted type splices for heater connections on GE motor UNID No. CVC-EMTR-31AB-4C1, contained no supporting qualification documentation in the EQF, EEQD 6.2, 16.2, or 4.14. The EQF for the above CVC charging pump motors do not adequately establish qualification because of failure to demonstrate similarity between the type tested nuclear qualified motor connection splices and the Okonite bolted type taped splices installed at the Waterford 3 plant.

,

using these two unidentified terminal blocks. The terminal blocks observed could not be identified as to manufacturer and model, and EQF, EQQD 15.1 did not contain documentation to demonstrate similarity between any type test and these installed components. The licensee's letter to NRC Region IV, dated February 2, 1987, indicated these terminal blocks were initially installed for measuring internal temperature of the penetrations containing power cables, and are classified as nonsafety-related, non-EQ qualifie LP&L should completely identify components by description (list, etc.) in the EQF, EEQD 15.1 to clarify what subassemblies, parts, and components to the model 7320-10003-02 electrical penetrations are considered EQ qualified, as this equipment appears as only one item on the EQML-E. LP&L should fully identify and document that these terminal blocks are not part of the penetration assembly that requires qualification. This item is considered an Open Item (50-382/0632-23).

(b) During the NRC walkdown inspection, the team also observed that the outside containment penetrations CB-EPEN 316-117 and CB-EPEM 316-142, had the polysulfone ends on the modules cracked with pieces of some ends missing and displayed damage. LP&L indicated during the NRC inspection that an engineering evaluation of the problem had been performed but no results or conclusion had been finalized or documented. The licensee's letter to NRC Region IV, dated February 2, 1987, provided additional information with regards to cracked polysulfone resilient seal LP&L's electrical penetration generic problems and resolutions had been documented on March 9, 1984, as discussed with the Conax field service enginee This documentation is now in EQF, EEQD 15.1 and may be reviewe This item is considered an Open Item (50-382/8632-09).
