Subject: Failure of CR105X Auxiliary Contacts

This letter provides information concerning a recently discovered deviation impacting GE CR105X Auxiliary Contacts. These devices were manufactured by GE Industrial Systems and supplied to licensees by GE Nuclear Energy (GE-NE) as safety related components for balance- of-plant or unspecified applications. Since the specific applications and associated safety functions of the devices are not known to GE-NE, we have transferred information pursuant to 10 CFR Part 21.21(b) to those licensees known to be affected. However, since additional licensees may have obtained these devices through other dedicating entities, we cannot assure ourselves that all end-users have been notified. We are therefore providing this information to the NRC for appropriate action.
