:- The' cause of this event has been attributed -to the switch' and its mechanisms being corroded.
The switch was repla cJ. :The corrosion = problem can be-F attributei to the environment in.which'the switch is mounted, which is;
~
1 high temperature and high humidity surroundings. The'other switche:,
2E41-N012A, B and C were inspected and at'present~ have no corrot on' problem.
i These switches also have been prone to' drift andithe ' environment could be a' major factor. An. investigation is underway to possibly. change out these L
switches withia trip and analog unit, or some other more reliable type

instrument. A follow-up report will tua s.ubmitted when results of the.
investi-ation are obtained.
