Title | Inadequate Operability Assessment on EDG B |
Description | The inspectors identified a Green NCV of Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion V, Instructions, Procedures, and Drawings, in that Entergy did not perform an adequate operability evaluation in accordance with EN-OP-104, Operability Determination Process, Revision 10. Specifically, during an instrumented run of emergency diesel generator (EDG) B, the cabinet door was opened, resulting in a non-seismically qualified configuration of protective relays for EDG B. Inspectors determined that Entergy did not adequately assess the operability of EDG B as required by EN-OP-104, Operability Determination Process. Specifically, Entergy did not evaluate the operability of EDG B when opening a cabinet door containing relays that serve a safety function. Entergy entered this issue into the corrective action program (CAP) as condition report (CR)-2016-5779 and CR-2016-7877. Entergy has issued a standing order to assess operability of equipment tested with cabinet doors open prior to performing work or declare the equipment being tested inoperable. This is a performance deficiency that was within Entergys ability to foresee and correct. This finding is more than minor because it is associated with the protection against external factors attribute of the Mitigating Systems cornerstone and affected the cornerstone objective to ensure the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. Specifically, relays were no longer in a configuration known to operate as required during a seismic event with the cabinet door open. In accordance with IMC 0609.04, initial Characterization of Findings, and Exhibit 2 of IMC 0609, Appendix A, The Significance Determination Process for Findings At-Power, issued June 19, 2013, the inspectors determined that this finding is of very low safety significance (Green) because the performance was not a design or qualification deficiency, did not involve an actual loss of safety function, and did not represent actual loss of safety function of a single train for greater than its technical specification (TS) allowed outage time. This finding has a cross-cutting aspect in the area of Problem Identification and Resolution, Operating Experience, in that the organization did not systematically and effectively collect, evaluate, and implement relevant internal and external operating experience in a timely manner. Specifically, Entergy did not evaluate industry operating experience on control of cabinet doors containing safety-related equipment, which led to operability concerns. |
