Part 21 Database MR Number: H-00-0052
Eaton Cutler-Hammer Date: 09/08/00
Warrendale,Pennsylvania
Subject: Part 21 - Potential Failure to Close on Demand for DS 206
Circuit Breaker
Discussion:
VENDOR: Eaton Cutler-Hammer PT21 FILE NO: mm-19-0
DATE OF DOCUMENT: 08/30/00 ACCESSION NUMBER: ML003747301
SOURCE DOCUMENT: EN 37275 REVIEWER: REXB, D. Skeen
Eaton Cutler-Hammer, a vendor of DS 206 circuit breakers, reported the
possibility of inadvertent change of the direct trip actuator to the
tripped state. This change might be caused by the closing springs
striking the bottom plate of the breaker frame during the breaker closing
operation. The vendor supplied safety-related operating mechanisms,
closing springs, and direct trip actuators to the Sequoyah nuclear power
plant licensee. Third-party suppliers may have provided the same items to
the nuclear power industry as safety-related components.
The vendor determined that the licensee's reconditioning process differed
from the vendor's process. The vendor modified and tested the design of
the direct trip actuators that appeared to be susceptible to this
problem.
