| ISOLATION CONDENSER STEAM CONDENSATE HIGH FLOW SWITCHES OUT OF CALIBRATION |
| |
| "During performance of DIS 1300-07, Isolation Condenser Steam Condensate |
| High Flow Switch Calibration, DP switch 3-1349A as found trip setpoint was |
| outside of T.S. limits. The as found value was -17.5 in WC and the T.S. |
| limit is </= to 14.8 in WC. Later in the same surveillance, DP switch |
| 3-1349B as found trip setpoint was outside of T.S. limit is </= 14.8 in WC. |
| These are the Div 1 and Div 2 Isolation Condenser Condensate High Flow |
| isolation instruments. With both these switches inop, the Isolation |
| Condenser would not have isolated at the appropriate time on a valid high |
| condensate flow signal. The Isolation Condenser was already isolated when |
| the out of tolerance switches were discovered and the switches were |
| calibrated satisfactorily prior to unisolating the Isolation Condenser." |
| |
| The licensee notified the NRC Resident Inspector. |
