Response to NRC Concern #7 Qualification of the Contents in the Pull Boxes 1.0 Purpose The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) raised questions concerning the qualification of the contents in pull boxes at Braidwood Station under submerged conditions as a results of a Design Basis Accident (DBA). The pull boxes installed at Braidwood Station are located above the flood level. Postulated submergence due to condensation of steam and spray is unrealistic given the minimal amounts of water attributable to such sources. However, because the question has been posed by the NRC, this evaluation has been performed to demonstrate the qualification of all contents inside pull boxes in the Braidwood HELB (High Humidity) areas. 2.0 C_ontents of Pull Boxes The safety related components in the pull boxes at Braidwood are:

1) Class 1E cables (See Attachment 1)
2) Raychem splicas (Ref.: EQ-88-120)
3) Okonite tape splices (Ref.: EQ-BB-030,31) 3.0 Qualification for Submergence 1

The Class 1E cables, Raychem splices and Okonite tape splices are type tested in accordance with IEEE 323-1974, and 'EEE 383-1974 requirements. Attachment 1 of this analysis demonstrates the qualification of IE cables installed at Braidwood Station, for post-LOCA submerged conditions. Only Raychem splices (ins'ide pull boxes located in HELB area) are used with IE instrumentation cibles required for post-DBA function. This requirement is specified on the El drawings (CE/2E-0-3000N) and its 1 _ _ . _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ . _ _ _ _ .______________________________________________________._.____m__.___m

  ~.1 EVALUATION OF CABLE INSULATION SYSTEMS DURING POST-LOCA SUBMERGED CONDITIONS-1.0 PURPOSE The purpose of this evaluation is to demonstrate the qualification for post-LOCA Submergence for all 1E cables installed at Byron /Braidwood Stations.

2.0 ANALYSIS The following types of IE cables, are installed at Byron /Braidwood Stations. l A. Okonite B. Samuel Moore C. BIW D. Champlain/Petsche E. Rockbestos SIS wire and coaxial cable The above mentioned cables are evaluated to demonstrate their qualifi-cation for post-LOCA submergence based on type testing and operability requirements below. l A. Okonite EPR Insulciad Cables The Okonite control and power cables installed at Byron /Braidwood Stations have EPR as primary insulation and Hypalon as outer Jacket. The Okonite cables were type tested in accordance with IEEE 383-1974 and IEEE 323-1974 testsequence(Thermal / radiation aging, LOCA) using an in-containment profile. Insulation Re-sistance (IR) measurements were taken at various intervals dur-ing/ post-LOCA simulation to evaluate cable performance. The subject cables were subjected to high voltage withstand test (i.e., 00V/ mil for 5 minutes while imersed in water). The tested cebles met all the performance requirement. The Okonite cables 2

i . I M were tested for Long Term 90 0C Water Inniersion Test in accordance with ICEA S-19-81, Section 6.9.2 (see attached Tables 1 &2). ) Therefore, baseo on the test results, it is determined that the Okonite cables (EPR insulated) will maintain their IR integrity during post-LOCA submergence. B. Samuel Moore EPDM Insulated Cables The Samuel Moore Instrumentation cables installed at Byron / Braidwood stations have EPDM as primary insulation ar.d Hypalon as outer jacket. the Samuel Moore cables were type tested in accord-ance with IEEE 383-1974 and IEEE 323-1974 requirements. The tested cables passed all the performance tests including the High Voltage Withstand Test. The Samuel Moore cables were subjected to Water Immersion Test. The water absorption by the insulation of the cable during the Water Inrnerston Test was insignificant (see CQD-042885, Rev. O, dated 04-03-89. Table 2). Therefore3 based on the test results, it is deterrrined that the samuel Moore cables are qualified fcr post-LOCA submergence. C. BIW EPR Insulated Cables The BIW Bostrad 7E (EPR Insulated) cables are installed in harsh zones at Byron /Braidwood Stations (Ref. DIT No. BR-EPED-0284-4). The BIW Bostrad 7E cables were type tested in accordance with IEEE 383-  ! 1974 and IEEE 324-1974 requirements. The tested cable met all the performance tests. The subject BIW cables were subjected to long l Term Water Abscrption Test per ICEA S-68-516 Electrical Method EM-

60. The insulation resistunce values measured during tha water absorption test were extremely high (see attached Figures 15 and 16). Therefore, based on the Long Term Water Absorption Test results, it is concluded that the BIW Bostrad cables (EPR insulated) will maintain their IR integrity during post-LOCA submergence.

0. . Champlain/Petsche Cabies Champlain and Petsche cables used with Area' Radiation monitors are only. located in Auxiliary building at Byron /Braidwood Stations.

The subject tables are ' type tested per IEEE 323-1974 and IEEE. 383-1974 requirements. These cables are not required to function during/ post-LOCA'(see EQ-3B-05). Since those cables'are not re-quired during/ post-LOCA, tLe submergence has no impact on the qualification of the subject cables. E. Rockbestos SIS Wire and Cc-axial Cable L i Rockbestos SIS wire and coaxial cables installed at Byron /Braidwood stations are type tested in accordance with IEEE 383-1974 and IEEE 323-1974 to an in-contairnent environme nt. Rockbestos SIS wire is not used as a field run cable, but it $s only used as panel / jumper wire. Rockbestos SIS wire has cross-link polyethylene as primary insulation along with flame retardant'and a filler material. This flame retardant filler material does not enhance the meisture resistivity of the SIS wire insulation. Since the SIS wire is used as panel / jumper wire, the submergence is of no cencern. However, a long term water immersion test was performed for SIS wire by Rockbestos (see attached report). Therefore, it is determined that the Rockbestos SIS wire is qualified for submergence. Rockbestos co-axial cable uses KXL100 as a primary moisture bar-rier material. This KXL100 material is made of purely polyethy-lene, some oxidant and cross linked enhancer. No filler it used in the coristruction of the coaxial cables. Since, the filler does not enhance the moisture resistivity; therefore, based upon the materials of construction for both the Rockbestos SIS wire and coaxial are similar. By virtue of similarity, it is judged that Rockbestos co-axial cable is also qualified for submergence. Therefore. Rockbestos SIS wire and coaxial cable are qualified for 4 i

submergence and will maintain their IR integrity during post-LOCA' submergence.

3.0 CONCLUSION

Based en the analysis presented above, it is concluded that all the IE Cdbles installed at Byron /Braidwood stations' arc qualified for submer-y gence. - Thus, in the unlikely event of post-LOCA submergence the above. l- mentioned cable insulation systems will perform satisfactorily. 4.0- i REFERENCES

I EVALUATION OF OKONITE TAPED SPLICES USED IN CONTROL & POWER APPLICATIONS AT BRAIDWOOD STATION FOR POST-LOCA SUBMERGED CONDITIONS 1

{. LL g.. EVALUATION OF OKONITE-TAPED

                                  -SPLICES DURING POST-LOCA SUBMERGED CONDITIONS
1. PURPOSE-The purpose of this evaluation is to demonstrate the qualification of Okonite laped Spilces usm! in control and power applications at
         ' Braidwood Statlon, for pos1 LOCA submergence.

L

2. QUALIFICATION METHODOLOGY The Okonite tapes (T-95) are ethylene propylene based thermosetting compound (Ref.4). The cement is also a thermosetting compound in an' adhesive form. Once the splice / termination is made the tape and cement form the same chemical structure and are rated at 90 UC continuous opera-t100. iherefore, tape connection serves as an extension of the cable insulation system.

The Okonite cable insulation (EPR) has been tested per Standard ICEA-S-19-81. Qualification for this insulation is provided in Attach-ment 1. In addition the following analysis further substantiates the

,         qualification of Okonite tapes / splices for submergence. The qualifica-tion details / basis is obtained from the following documents.
1) Okonite Report # NQRN-3, Rev. 03 (Reference - 1) I
2) Okonite Engineering Report #407 (Reference - 2)
3) Wyle Labs Report #17961-01 (Reference - 3)

The References 1 & 2 above provide the qualification of the cable in conformance with the IEEE-323 1974, IEEE-383-1974 (aging LOCA exposure, mandrel test, 5 minute h1 pot test under tap water). l The long term submergence is addressed through the Reference 3 document. 4 2

                                                                                                                           )

The samples were aged'to on end of life condition (40 years), and then exposed to a 30-day LOCA and 100-day post-LOCA tests (Ref. 1 and 2). IR measurements were taken at various intervals to evaluate cable and tape splice performance (see Appendix 9, Ref. 1, and Table I, Ref. 2). All test samples passed the 30 and 130 day post-LOCA high voltage withstand b tests, at 80 V/ mil AC for 5 minutes while immersed in tap water. 1 Per Reference 3, the test semples (applicable to Braidwood Station) were. l- ' type' tested to un'end of Ilfe condition (40 years including heat rise from 12 R). ' Test samples were irradiated to a TfD of IE07 rads and 0 exposed to a maximum temperature of 250 F in 100% steam environment during LOCA test. During the LOCA test, the test samples (In-line and-V-type splices). were partially submerged in the water.

4. _ Comparison of IR and Leakage Current for Taped Splices Appendix 9 of Ref.1-and Table I of Ref. 2 show the IR data during LOCA exposure for the aged specimens discussed above. from these Tables, the trend exhibited by the IR data is similar to that demonstrated for cable j insulation systems, i.e., IR values drop significantly during' the LOCA conditions when the temperatures are high with an all steam and spray j environment present. Thus, the same conclusions can be crawn for taped splices as was evident during the post-LOCA submergence tests for the EP ,

I insulation system, i.e., the IR values are expected to be higher during post-LOCA submergence. In addition, the peak leakage current recorded during the Wyle test (Ref. 3) for the EPR insulation systems taped with Okonite splices while partially immersed in water, was 13 mA (Ref. 3, i page VI-7, Sec. VI). 1his maximun leakage current (i.e., 13.nA) is negligible for control circuits and will not impair the integrity of the control devices. Since the leakage current in the Okonite tape splices is in the mA range and the normal load current in a power application is in the Amp range, the leakage current in the Okonite tape splices will not impair the  ; l 3

safety f unction of the p6wer circuits. Therefore, based on the comparison of the irs and leakage current'for the. taped splices, it is determined that the Okonite splicing tapes are qualified for. post-LOCA submergence for control. and power applications.

5. CONCL.LISION Based on the test results, and the evaluation presented above,'it is concluded that the Okonite Splicing Tapes (EPR insulation) utilized in
          ' control and power circuits at Braidwood Station are qualified. for post-LOCA submerged conditions.
