                                      ITEM A(2) 446/8604-V-02
                                SUPPLEMENTAL REQUEST FOR INFORMATION
        In your response to Item A(2), you mention that problems related to the
        overflowing of electrical cable from the cable trays that were identified by
        the NRC inspector had been previously identified by applicant personnel and
        were in the process of being reworked. Accordingly, you did not agree that
        the NRC identified condition was a violation and, therefore, did not provide
        the information required by the NOV.
        Based on our review of the information provided in your response and
        additional information provided by members of your staff, we cannot agree that
        the cited condition had been, or necessarily would have been, identified as a
        result of the rework that had been undertaken. While we agree that many of
        the same cables were involved in both the NRC identified condition of
        overflowing cable tray siderails and the rework being conducted, we disagree              ;
        that the NRC identified problem would necessarily have been resolved by
        pulling the cables back to remove interlacing and then reinstalling these
        cables in the same size cable tray.      In addition, the NRC inspector did not
        identify any QC hold tags (indicating an identified problem) during the NRC
        inspection.
                                SUPPLEMENTAL RESPG : TO ITEM A(2)
        As a result of discussions with the NRC Resident Inspector and our review of
        this violation, we have determined that a revision to our response is
        required. The revised response below will provide the supplemental
        information requested.
        1.  Reason for Violation
f            We admit the violation, and the requested information follows.
              The deficiences noted in this violation involving unacceptable cable
              installation'were the result of corrective actions in progress per
              NCR E-85-101983 and inadequacies in the cited TUGC0 Inspection Instruction
              QI-QP-11.3-26 and B&R Construction Procedure EEI-7. Specifically,
              criteria governing the installation and inspection of electrical cable
              were found insufficient to prevent the improper cable installation
              identified in the NOV.
        2.  Corrective Steos Taken
              A request for engineering clarification (RFIC E-11180) was initiated on
              March 4,1986 requesting engineering to evaluate cable tray nodes

'
              12" tray nodes with 18" width trays to correct the stated cable overfill
              and irregular routing problems. Construction Deficiency Report CDR-87-801
              was issued on January 19, 1987 to identify the need for reinspection of
              existing cable installations for cable overfill conditions. If the
              disposition of the CDR indicates that corrective action is required, a CAR

        3.  Action to Prevent Recurrence
              Inspection Instruction QI-QP-11.3-26 and Construction Procedure EEI-7 have
              been revised to address the specific requirements of the electrical
              erection specification in the areas identified in the NOV. An additional
              inspection attribute has been incorporated into the inspection instruction
              prohibiting cables from extending above the top of cable tray siderails
              except where entering and exiting the cable tray.
        4.  Date of Como11ance
              Implementation of design change DCA-24,289 and associated cable rework is
              scheduled to be completed by July 1,1987. A change notice (DCN #5) was
              issued against the Installation Procedure EEI-7 on October 31, 1986.
              Revision 31 of Inspection Instruction QI-QP-11.3-26 is scheduled to be
              issued by January 31, 1987, upon completion of requisite training. If
              required, appropriate corrective action to disposition CDR-87-801 will be
              completed by July 1,1987.

NOTICE OF VIOLATION

ITEM A(2) 446/8604-V-02

SUPPLEMENTAL REQUEST FOR INFORMATION

In your response to Item A(2), you mention that problems related to the

overflowing of electrical cable from the cable trays that were identified by

the NRC inspector had been previously identified by applicant personnel and

were in the process of being reworked. Accordingly, you did not agree that

the NRC identified condition was a violation and, therefore, did not provide

the information required by the NOV.

Based on our review of the information provided in your response and

additional information provided by members of your staff, we cannot agree that

the cited condition had been, or necessarily would have been, identified as a

result of the rework that had been undertaken. While we agree that many of

the same cables were involved in both the NRC identified condition of

overflowing cable tray siderails and the rework being conducted, we disagree  ;

that the NRC identified problem would necessarily have been resolved by

pulling the cables back to remove interlacing and then reinstalling these

cables in the same size cable tray. In addition, the NRC inspector did not

identify any QC hold tags (indicating an identified problem) during the NRC

inspection.

SUPPLEMENTAL RESPG : TO ITEM A(2)

As a result of discussions with the NRC Resident Inspector and our review of

this violation, we have determined that a revision to our response is

required. The revised response below will provide the supplemental

information requested.

1. Reason for Violation

f We admit the violation, and the requested information follows.

The deficiences noted in this violation involving unacceptable cable

installation'were the result of corrective actions in progress per

NCR E-85-101983 and inadequacies in the cited TUGC0 Inspection Instruction

QI-QP-11.3-26 and B&R Construction Procedure EEI-7. Specifically,

criteria governing the installation and inspection of electrical cable

were found insufficient to prevent the improper cable installation

identified in the NOV.

2. Corrective Steos Taken

A request for engineering clarification (RFIC E-11180) was initiated on

March 4,1986 requesting engineering to evaluate cable tray nodes

T240SF001, 02, 03, 04, and 05 for siderails and to document installation

l

problems encountered during cable rework associated with NCR E-85-101983.

i A design change (DCA #24,289) was issued on April 4, 1986, to replace the

'

12" tray nodes with 18" width trays to correct the stated cable overfill

and irregular routing problems. Construction Deficiency Report CDR-87-801

was issued on January 19, 1987 to identify the need for reinspection of

existing cable installations for cable overfill conditions. If the

disposition of the CDR indicates that corrective action is required, a CAR

will be generated,
