Description:

During routine station operation with the TIP detectors.

withdrawn, repTacement explosive charges in the TIP system shear valves were replcaed with new charges.Following replacement, it was found that the ohmneter contlnuity test for acceptable eTectric contact was unsatisfactory.

The normal TIP tube tsoTaticm system was.operabTe at this time.I It was found thart the.actual etectricaV connections to the.explosive charges were net as-described

-4n the maStenance-procedure.

-The shear.valves would not have operated to 5solate the TIP guide.tuba witlr the TIp inserted Dectrical connections vill be checked and tested to assure.that the explosive.va7.ves wAl operate as described in the operatic procedures."..Station records;including.
