NUCLEAR PROJECT NO. 2 IE BULLETIN 77-02 References :    a)  IE Bulletin 77-02, transmitted by letter, R. H. Engelken to D. L. Renberger, dated September 12, 1977.
b) Letter, D. L. Renberger to R. H. Engelken, dated November 9,1977, regarding IE Bulletin 77-02.
Reference a) transmitted IE Bulletin 77-02 concerning failures of Westinghouse AR relays with a certain latch attachment or seal-in feature.
Reference b) transmitted the Nuclear Project No. 2 response by stating "The Architect / Engineer has determined that Westinghouse-type AR relays are not being used in safety-related systems and are not planned for use                  '
in safety-related systems." This answer, though likely accurate in 1977, was technically too restrictive. We have now determined that AR relays, without latch attachments, are used in safety-related systems at WNP-2 and have determined this to be acceptable. The actual problem identified by NRC in 1977 was the AR relays using certain latch attachments manufac-tured after mid-1973 and before Westinghouse revised the attachment model.

Mr. John B. Martin Page 2 August 3,1983 The use of AR relays with any latch attachment (s) has been blacklisted from procurement and use by the Supply System. If later use of an AR relay with some seal-in feature is required, a technical evaluation will L
be made to ensure an acceptable and qualified device is used.
This response updates and supersedes the previously submitted response (reference b)).
