Title | Failure to Periodically Test the Emergency Diesel Generators Capacity to Start and Accelerate Design Basis Sequenced Loads |
Description | The team identified a finding of very-low safety significance (Green) and an associated NCV of Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations, Part50, Appendix B, Criterion XI, Test Control, for the failureto periodically test the emergency diesel generators(EDGs) capability to start and accelerate all of the sequenced loads within the applicable design voltage and frequency transient and recovery limits.Specifically, EDG testingactivities did not demonstrate that all of the EDG auto-sequenced loads started and accelerated within the applicable voltage and frequency limits during start-up and recovery. In addition, the licensee did not perform adequate post-modification testing after replacing the EDG governor controller system or voltage regulators. Thelicensee captured theseissuesin their Corrective Action Programas Condition Report (CR)2017-05265 and CR 2017-05283, and performed an operability evaluation which reasonably determined the affected structures, systems, and componentswere operable.The performance deficiency was determined to be more-than-minor because it was associated with the Mitigating Systems cornerstone attribute of equipment performance and affected the cornerstone objective of ensuring the availability, reliability, and capability of mitigating systems thatrespond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. The finding screened as of very-low safety significance (Green) becauseit did not result in the loss ofoperability or functionality of mitigating systems. Specifically, the licensee evaluated the most recent voltage and frequency data from the last EDG output breaker testsin which the data recorder was left running after the output breaker shut and reasonably determined that the EDGs and the affected loads were operable. The team did not identify a cross-cutting aspect associated with this finding because it was not confirmed to reflect current performance due to the age of the performance deficiency. Specifically, the associated testingprocedures were established more than 3years ago. |
