Re: Fwd: AP questions on VY LER

Neil, Let me go through each question in order:

1. Was the INPO report cited on Page 4 ('Significant Operating Experience Report (SOER) 90-01 for

'Ground Faults on AC Electrical Distribution'") issued in 1990?

2. Does the NRC have any general commentary on the report's conclusions? If not now, when might we?

`I, r

3. This is not in the report, but someone (maybe Ray Shadis) told the reporter that wind speed in the ductwork increased after a new transformer (as part of the uprate modifications) was Installed and that, in turn, increased the likelihood of failure of the expansion joint. Is that true?
