AbstractAbstract
[en] On May 13, 1985, BBC Brown Boveri Inc. (BBC) made a 10 CFR Part 21 report to the NRC concerning a deficiency in the Models OD-4 and OD-5 overcurrent trip devices installed on K-line circuit breakers. The affected breakers were manufactured by BBC from October 1983 to March 1985 and may have incorrect short time delay band levers (links) installed in electromechanical overcurrent trip device models OD-4 and OD-5. The incorrect link could limit the travel of the short time armature and cause the short time element to be inoperative in the maximum (MAX) band. The May 13, 1985, report recommended that all K-line circuit breakers with the OD-4 and OD-5 overcurrent trip devices and any spare OD-4 and OD-5 overcurrent trip devices that were manufactured between October 1983 and March 1985, be inspected for an incorrect short time delay band link. Licensees known by BBC to have purchased K-line breakers or spare OD-4 or OD-5 overcurrent trip devices were notified of the possible defect and instructions provided for their inspection. Enclosed is a list of utilities and related facilities that were notified by BBC. However, BBC advised the NRC that there is a possibility that other utilities could be using K-line circuit breakers with the suspect OD-4 and OD-5 overcurrent trip devices. Therefore, all licensees are being notified of this possible defect
