A safety related W2 Control Switch, procured from Westinghouse, did not operate satisfactorily when drawn from stock to be installed in the Main Control Board for 1C2 Safety Injection Pump.The switch did work properly before installation in the Main Control Board position.However, subsequent to installation the switch mechanism would bind and would not spring return to the"after close" or"after trip" positions.

The switch is expected to function properly in both applications.
