Title | Licensee-Identified Violation |
Description | Section 50.48(c) of 10 CFR and NFPA 805, 2001 Edition, Section 2.4.2.2.2(b), Common Enclosure Circuits, require that those circuits which share enclosures with circuits required to achieve the nuclear safety performance criteria and whose fire-induced failure could cause the loss of the required component, shall be identified to prevent propagating fires outside of the immediate fire area due to fire-induced electrical faults on inadequately protected cables. Contrary to the above, from October 1986 to September 2014, the licensee failed to meet the requirements of 10 CFR 50.48(c) and NFPA 805, Section 2.4.2.2.2(b), in that, the licensee failed to identify and provide adequate electrical fault protection for the turbine emergency oil pump control cables 11376C and 11376D. The cables could have created a common enclosure fire hazard under postulated situations which could have resulted in a secondary fire in other fire areas and could have adversely affected the capability to achieve safe and stable plant conditions. A fire-induced failure could have caused the loss of the required safe shutdown components. This violation was determined to be of very low safety significance (Green) based on the results of the IMC 0609, Appendix F, Fire Protection Significance Determination Process, Phase III Quantitative Screening Approach. A detailed risk evaluation was performed in accordance with NRC IMC 0609 Appendix F, and NUREG/CR6850 Rev. 0 and 1, using inputs from the licensees NFPA 805 Fire PRA. The major analysis assumptions included a one-year exposure interval, and secondary fires occurring between the power supply and the fire induced hot short. The dominant sequence was a fire in the main control board causing a secondary fire in the B cable spreading room which if unsuppressed could result in the inability to achieve safe shutdown resulting in core damage. The quantitative screening approach resulted in a calculated delta core damage frequency of less than 1E-06, which screened this violation to Green (very low safety significance). This violation was documented in the licensees corrective action program as Condition Report 692766. |
