Event Descri tion On November 18, 1987, a condition prohibited by Plant Technical Specifications was not identified when performing the weekly Technical Specification surveillance for Plant batteries.
The test was completed by Plant electricians and given to the Operations Department Shift Hanager for review and acknowledgement of completion.
It was then reviewed and signed by the Shift Hanager at 0531 hours0.00615 days <br />0.148 hours <br />8.779762e-4 weeks <br />2.020455e-4 months <br /> and submitted to the Plant Electrical Haintenance group for review.At 0730 hours0.00845 days <br />0.203 hours <br />0.00121 weeks <br />2.77765e-4 months <br />, the cognizant Haintenance Department reviewer recognized that the 250 Volt Battery voltage was recorded as being below the Technical Specification minimum required value.After the Shift Hanager was informed of the low voltage condition, the voltage was returned to within allowable limits at 0821 hours0.0095 days <br />0.228 hours <br />0.00136 weeks <br />3.123905e-4 months <br />.The immediate cause of this event was determined to be personne'I error in that two utility electrical technicians failed to recognize the actual plant conditions (i.e., that the 250 Volt Battery was inoperable due to low battery float voltage).Contrary to the approved procedure, the electricians did not inform the Operations staff of any discrepancies and signed the test results as being satisfactory.
The root cause of this event was determined to be a combination of lack of mental attention and poor work practice.The electricians recorded the voltage properly as required by procedure, but failed to recognize the significance of the Technical Specification required battery system parameters.
The low voltage reading of 256.9 volts (minimum voltage is 258 volts)should.have initiated action to-inform the Operations staff on an immediate basis and to signify the test results as unsatisfactory on the cover page of the procedure.
Poor work practice was used when the technicians did not perform the procedure step by step, but instead recorded the data in convenient groups.Subsequently, they then initialed all the procedure steps on that page, as a group, without carefully reading each step individually.
As a result of this method, the Technical Specification acceptance criteria listed in the procedure were overlooked.
Immediate Corrective Action Plant operators returned 250 Volt'Battery voltage to within Technical Specification required limits as soon as the out-of-specification condition was recognized.

o Maintenance Department personnel will receive instruction on the proper methods of performing Technical Specification surveillances and identification and reporting of discrepancies.
o This LER will be required reading for all Operations and Maintenance Department personnel.
o This LER will be added to the subject lists of items to be discussed during Operations Requalification Training and Maintenance Department shop meetings.o The Technical Specification Surveillance Testing Program will be modified to identify the Shift Manager's test completion signature as the final.review for equipment operability and to specify that any applicable Technical Specification LCO time requirement start at that point.o During the two-year periodic review of Technical Specification Surveillance Procedures, each procedure will be modified as necessary to improve identification of test acceptance criteria by technicians and to improve the capability for timely, thorough review by the Shift Manager.NRC FORM SSSA (983)A U.S GPO 1988 0 824 538/455 NRC Form 3SBA I94/3)LICENSEE EVENT REPORT ILERI TEXT CONTINUATION V.S.NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION APPROVEO OMB NO 3150&/04 EXPIRESI 8/3I/88 FACILITY NAME III DOCKET NUMBER LTl LEA NUMBER IS SSOUSNTrAL NUMBER ASY/5/ON NUMSSA PAGE ISI Washington Nuclear Plant-Unit 2 TEKT///more f/roof N/f//rkwS r/fo eCkWenel/YRC Arrrr 38SI'5/IITl Safet Si nificance o 5 o o o 3 9 7 8 7 0 3 01 04oF 0 4 A review of the details of this event shows that, although the Class IE 250 Yolt Battery was inoperable per Technical Specifications for 51 minutes longer than allowed, this DC power source contained sufficient power to ensure safe shutdown capability during the entire time period.The 250 Volt DC System supplies power to Reactor Core Isolation Cooling System (RCIC), Reactor Water Cleanup System (RWCU)and the Reactor Heat Removal Shutdown Cooling System (SDC)isolation valves.The RCIC, SDC and RWCU systems each contain a redundant AC powered isolation valve which would function to isolate if the DC powered valve was inoperable.
The RCIC and RWCU systems are not required to function during accident conditions.
The SDC system functions can be performed by the Alternate Shutdown Cooling Flow path if required.Additionally, the DC power system at WNP-2 contains two other Class IE 125 volt DC power supply subsystems each of which alone is capable of supplying sufficient power to ensure safe shutdown capability.
