exc.ept, the plant operator performing the test did not follow l the prescribed test sequence as required by Section 4.5 of procedure 1-STP-33.0 The operator did not enter the trip breaker and bypass trip breaker rount numbers into the surveil-lance test data book located within the control room and verified that the counter numbers hau increased since the last entry as required by procedure section 5.7.11 until all of the procedure steps had been completed. This failure to follow procedure is another example of violation 348, 364/87-17-0 (3) Failure to Follow Approved Procedure One June' 18, 1987 during the performance of STP 80.10 " Diesel Generator 2C 1000KW Load Rejection Test", the licensee found an electrical problem in which 2C diesel generator would not have non-essential (NEEP) engine protection when aligned to 2B batte ry . (See unresolved Item 348-364/87-14-03). If 2C diesel generator was aligned to 2B battery an electrical circuit path was provided between the positive (+132VDC) of 18 battery to the negative (-132VDC) of 2B batter There was no voltage potential to operate the NEEP relays for 2C D/G. The 2C'or .'B diesel generators were capable of performing emergency startit g and operation. The cause of the problem was a wiring error in termination cabinet 38B on ITB1-37. The correct point of termination should have been to 2TB1-37. The error was made while performing PCN SE-81-909 under MWR 111291 which modified the control circuitry to prevent the diesel generator from motorin The licensee did not perform adequate testing of the diesel generator after completion of the modification to ensure the modified eouipment would perform as designed, as required by AP-52. This is another example of violation 348,364/87-17-0 Radiological Protection Program (71709)

Selected activities of the licensee's Radiological Protection Prooram were reviewed by the inspectors to verify conformance with plant procedures and NRC regulatory Requirement The areas reviewed included the organization and management of the plant's health physics staff; "ALARA" implementation; Radiation Work Permits (RWP's)

for compliance to. plant procedures; personnel exposure records; observation of work and personnel in radiation areas to verify compliance to radiation protection procedures; ano control of radioactive material Physical Security Program (71881)

The licensee's compliance to the approved security plan was reviewed by the inspector The inspectors verified by observation and interviews with security force members that measures taken to assure the physical protection of the facility met current requirements.

Work requests were also reviewed to determine the status of outstanding jobs to assure that priority was assigned to safety-related equipment maintenance which may affect systam performanc No discrepancies were identified except for maintenance activities associated with re-terminating electrical leads to solenoid operated valves, motor operated valves, and electrical leads to motors associated with containment building hydrogen mixing and containment building coolin The inspection and repair work done inside the reactor containment buildings was completed under adverse personnel environmental condition The repair parties were subjected to temperatures up to 139 F. The work was well planned ir, that personnel exposure was limited to 40 to 50 mrem per entry. All personnel wore ice vests and the stay time was limited to 25-30 minutes due to heat stres The inspectors observed and/or reviewed certain completed work packages to determine that work was completed in accordance with the procedure, that post maintenance testing was completed and acceptabl On August 9, 1987, the licensee reduced power on Unit 1 to 37% to complete the inspection and re work on the motor splices. On Auguct 14, 1987 power was increased to full load. On August 14, 1987 power was reduced to 37% on Unit 2 for inspection and rework of the motor splices. On August 19, 1987 power was increased to full loa This is described in paragrcph 6a, 6b and 6 Re-termination of electrical leads to solenoid operated valve On July 21, 1987 the licensee notified the resident inspector of a possible nonconformance in the environmental qualifications of 125 Cdc splices utilized in certain environmentally qualified air operated valves. The licensee identified a total of 84 affected solenoid valves on each uni Of the 84 solenoid valves, 62 are de-energized to perform their accident mitigation function and 22 are energize The licensee has performed a justification for continued

operatio.n (JCO) evaluation for the 22 solenoid valves. The inspec-tors reviewed the JCO's and attended the Plant Operations Review Committee [PORC) meeting in which each JC0 was evaluated and approved by the POR The licensee initiated a program to change out the as found termina-tion on solenoid valves pertaining to the auxiliary feed water valves and the RCS sample valves. These SOV's are accessible and could be worked separately under administrative Limiting conditions for operations (LCO's).

The old terminations / splices were pigtail type connections. The two leads were bolted together to form a solid connection. They were then wrapped tightly with insulating tape (okonite T-95) and in most cases were covered with T-35 tape for jacke The insulating tape wrap measured approximately 4/32 to 5/22 inch thick. The inspectors observed the performance of a portion of the work on Unit 1 auxiliary feed pump SOV's located in Unit 1 main steam valve room. The old splices (terminations) were replaced by inline splices using Raychem splice kits which are environmentally qualified splices. The splices are all located inside condule Each solenoid valve was re-worked under separate maintenance work request (MWR) which included work sequence under separate but attached referenced instructions. The work sequence contained step by step instructions with sign off verification of appropriate step The inspection was done using FN0-0-ETP-4250. Each splice inspection is documented which includes com;1eted splice physical dimension Of the 22 energized solenoids: 11 are in the auxiliary feed water system and have been replaced; 6 solenoids associated with the main steam isolation valves; I with the component cooling water thermal barrier; and 4 solenoids associated with the pressurizer power operated relief valves. These will be replaced during the next unit outag The solenoids that are de-energized are in a fail safe condition and will be replaced on a subsequent outag This item is unresolved pending completion of the solenoid splices, and further review by the NRC (348-364/87-17-01). Re-termination of electrical leads to motor operated valves (MOV's).

The licensee identified 104 MOV's on each unit which may require l

re-work with Raychem splices to assure environmental qualification.

~ Operational Safety Verification Plant Operations Review (71707)

,

The inspectors observed control room operations, reviewed applicable logs and conducted discussions with control room operators during the report period. Also, the operability of selected emergency -systems was verified, tagout records reviewed and proper return to service-of-affected components was verified. Tours of the auxiliary building, diesel building, turbine building and service water structure were conducted to observe plant equipment conditions, including fluid leaks'and excessive vibrations and general housekeeping efforts. The verifications were accomplished by direct ' observation of monitoring

(3) Failure to Follow Approved Procedures.

1 One June 18,.1987 during the . performance of STP 80.10 " Diesel Generator 2C.1000KW Load Rejection Test", the licensee found an electrical problem in which 2C diesel generator would riot have non-essential (NEEP) engine protection when aligned to 2B battery. (See unresolved Item 348-364/87-14-03). If 2C diesel'

. generator was aligned to 2B battery an electrical circuit path was provided between the positive (+132VDC) of 1B battery to the-negative (-132VDC) of 2B batter There was no voltage potential to operate the NEEP relays for 2C D/G. The 2C'or IB diesel generators Wre capable of performing emergency starting and operation. The cause of the problem was a wiring error in termination cabinet 38B on 1'B1-37. The correct point of termination should have been ta 2TB1-37. The error was made while performing PCN SE-81-909 under tiWR 111291 which modified the control circuitry to prevent the diesel generator from motorin The licensee did not perform adequate testing of the diesel generator after completion of the modification to ensure the modified equipment would perform as designed, as required by AP-52. This is another example of violation 348,364/87-17-0 Radiological Protection Program (71709)

Committee (PORC) meeting.in which each JC0 was evaluated and approved by the POR i The licensee' initiated a program to change out the as found termina-tion on' solenoid ' valve's pertaining to the auxiliary feed water. valves-and- the RCS sample valves. These S0V's are accessible and could be worked separately under administrative Limiting ' conditions for operations (LCO's).

The old terminations / splices were pigtail type connections. The two leads were bolted together to form a solid connection. They were then wrapped tightly with insulating tape (okonite T-95) and in most cases were covered with T-35 tape. for jacke The insulating tape wrap measured approximately 4/32 to 5/32 inch thick. The inspectors observed the performance of a portion of the work on Unit 1 auxiliary feed pump. 50V's located in Unit 1 main steam valve.' room. The old:

splices (terminations) were replaced by inline splices using Raychem splice kits which are environmentally qualified splices. The splices-are all located'inside condule Each solenoid -valve was re werked under separ. ate maintenance work request (MWR) which included work sequence under separate but o attached referenced instructions. The work sequence contained step i by st g instructions with sign off verification of appropriate step The inspection was done using FNO-0-ETP-4250. Each splice inspection is documented which includes completed splice physical dimension Of the 22 energized solenoids: 11 are in the auxiliary feed water system and have been replaced; 6 solenoids associated with the main steam isolation. valves; I with the component Noling water thermal barrier; and 4 solenoids associated with t'1e pressurizer power operated relief valves. These will be replaced during the next unit outag The solenoids that are de-energiztid are in a fail safe condition and will be replaced on a subsequent outag s
