| ==CORRECTIVE ACTIONS==
| |
| The two causal analyses found that there was a lack of managerial and technical oversight to ensure the information associated with Teflon material used in EQ CEPFSs was applied to non-EQ CEPFSs.
| |
| This lack of managerial and technical oversight is being addressed across the organization through the resolution of the Fundamental Performance Deficiencies.
| |
| The Teflon degradation issue will be resolved by replacing or capping the remaining CEPFSs containing Teflon seals or conductor insulation prior to plant startup.
| |
| The FCS USAR will be updated (post-restart) to describe the as-left replacement configuration of the electrical penetration assemblies.
| |
| | |
| ==SAFETY SIGNIFICANCE==
| |
| The inboard Teflon seals on the Conax series 2325-7780 multi-conductor electrical penetrations would degrade in a DBA environment, which would reduce the safety margin and leak integrity would be dependent on the outside Teflon seals. However, recent testing showed that these CEPFSs satisfied the USAR 5.9.1 design requirement for containment integrity.
| |
| Under accident conditions, failure of the CEPFSs would challenge the operability of the following EEQ equipment (even though the insulation is held in place by the surrounding tube and it is very unlikely these feed-throughs would have failed to perform their design function):
| |
| a. Radiation monitors RM-091A and RM-091B, containment area high range radiation monitors.
| |
| These monitors provide high-level radiation measurements, which would be required during accident conditions. These monitors extend the range of the containment area radiation monitoring system.
| |
| b. HCV-383-3 and HCV-383-4, containment sump recirculation isolation valves. The containment sump isolation valves provide isolation between the high pressure safety injection system and the containment sump. These valves automatically open when a recirculation actuation signal is generated.
| |
| SAFETY SYSTEM FUNCTIONAL FAILURE This event does not result in a safety system functional failure in accordance with NEI-99-02.
| |
| PREVIOUS EVENTS Three LERs with event dates since May 1, 2010, were identified discussing penetration issues. Only one LER, 2011-003-3, Inadequate Flooding Protection Due to Ineffective Oversight, identified a lack of oversight as a cause of the condition which resulted in unsealed abandoned penetrations exposing the intake structure to flooding. However the conditions discussed in the current LER are legacy issues that would not have been prevented by the corrective actions identified in LER 2011-003.
