| Title | Failure to Provide Sufficient Guidance for the Successful Troubleshooting of Safety-Related Equipment |
| Description | The inspectors identified a finding of very low safety significance with an associated NCV of Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion V, Instructions, Procedures, and Drawings, for the licensees failure to provide procedural guidance of a type appropriate to the circumstances. Specifically, licensee procedure MAAA716004, Conduct of Troubleshooting, Revision 13, did not prescribe appropriate quantitative or qualitative acceptance criteria for determining whether a failed component existed in the 1VY03C control circuit (a safety-related component) using the simple troubleshooting methods outlined by the procedure. The licensee entered this issue into the CAP as ARs 02680921 and 02722425. Corrective actions included revision of the MAAA716004 procedure to include instructions that drove more thorough troubleshooting activities, as recommended by an internal fleet assessment documented in AR 02516457. The performance deficiency was more than minor, and thus a finding because it was associated with the Mitigating Systems cornerstone attribute of equipment performance and adversely affected the cornerstone objective of ensuring the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences (i.e., core damage). Specifically, the licensee concluded troubleshooting on fan 1VY03C without correcting the degraded condition which adversely affected the reliability of the fan to automatically start in response to an initiating event. The finding screened as of very low safety significance (Green) because the finding was not a deficiency affecting the design or qualification of a mitigating system, structure and component (SSC), did not represent a loss of system or function, did not represent an actual loss of function of a train for greater than the TS allowed outage time and did not represent a loss of function of a nonTS train of equipment. The inspectors determined this finding affected the cross-cutting area of problem identification and resolution in the aspect of operating experience where the organization systematically and effectively collects, evaluates, and implements relevant internal and external operating experience in a timely manner. Specifically, the licensee failed to ensure evaluation and implementation of internal operating experience in a timely manner after a fleet wide issue concerning less than adequate troubleshooting was entered in the CAP.
