Mr.. James P.
O'Reilly SPR 84-003 Page-Two March 5, 1984 EVENT DESCRIPTION On January 25,.1984, I&c. personnel. removed seismic instrument IYM-1783, Reactor Building Foundation-Triaxial Response Spectrum Recorder, from service to verify calibration.
It had been identified that the " Field Standard" test equipment (Spring Scale) used on the previous calibration (August 22, 1983) was out of tolerance when the periodic calibration was performed.
All settings in which the spring scales were used were found to be in
' tolerance.
However, it was identified by the I&C personnel that one of the integrated circuit chips was damaged, and the surveillance test procedure could not be satisfactorily completed.
-The damaged chip is part of a redundant circuit which provides annunciation to the. Main Control Board.
.The I&C personnel were' aware that.a vendor recommended modification was in review which includes deletion of this redundant circuitry; therefore, no repairs were made at that
' time.
- o On February 7,1984, final approval was received to initiate the modification change.. Site personnel began the modification and difficulty was encountered, at which time a technical vendor representative was requested to assist in the modification.
1The vendor representative arrived on site Monday, February 27, 1984.
At present, work is in progress and it has been estimated that the modification, reinstallation, and the applicable testing will be completed by March 15, 1984.
