| Description | The inspectors identified a Green NCV of 10 CFR 50 Appendix B, Criterion III, Design Control, for failure to assure that the design basis for EDG 2 Alternate Safe Shutdown (ASSD) Switch A1 was correctly translated into specifications and drawings. Specifically, between original EDG 2 installation and September 1, 2012, a wiring discrepancy existed associated with EDG 2 ASSD Switch A1 which resulted in an induced fault that could have impacted the ability to locally control EDG 2 during certain fire scenarios. The licensees corrective actions included correcting the EDG 2 control circuit wiring to ensure it was in accordance with the existing approved design and returning EDG 2 to operable status. The licensee entered this issue into the CAP as NCR 557897. The performance deficiency associated with this finding was the failure to assure that the design basis for EDG 2 ASSD Switch A1 was correctly translated into specifications and drawings. The finding was more than minor because it was associated with the protection against external factors (i.e. fire) 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, an induced fault could have impacted the ability to locally control EDG 2 during certain fire scenarios. Using IMC 0609, Attachment 4, issued June 19, 2012, Initial Characterization of Findings, and IMC 0609, Appendix F, Attachment 1, Part 1: Application of Fire Protection SDP Phase 1 Worksheet, the results of this evaluation required further significance evaluation. A phase 3 analysis was performed by a regional SRA in accordance with NRC IMC 0609 Appendix F. The finding affected the capability to achieve alternate safe shutdown for Unit 1. The result of the analysis was an increase in core damage frequency of <1E-6/year a GREEN finding of very low safety significance. The finding does not have a cross-cutting aspect since the performance deficiency is not indicative of current plant performance. The EDG 2 ASSD Switch A1 wiring discrepancy has existed since original EDG installation. |
