REQUEST FOR RELIEF FROM ASHE CODE SECTION XI (WITH ADDENDA THROUGH WINTER 1980) INSERVICE INSPECTION REQUIREMENTS
A. 1. Component for Which Exemption Is Requested:
(a) Name and Number: Core Flood Nozzle-to-Safe End and Safe End-to-Pipe Welds Drawing OM-201-92
Isometrics: System 53A, Iso 1, Part 2 (Unit 1) Iso 2, Part 3 (Unit 1)
Sheet 8, Part 2 (Unit 2) Sheet 8, Part 3 (Unit 2) Iso 15, Part 1 (Unit 3) Iso 16 (Unit 3)
(b) Function: Provides reactor vessel core flooding capability
(c) ASME Section III Code Class: Class 1
(d) Valve Category: N/A
2. Reference Code Requirement That Has Been Determined To Be Impractical:
Table IWB-2500-1; Category B-F; Item B5.10 Surface examination
3. Basis for Requesting Relief:
Relief requested from surface examination only.
Approximately 40 man-hours would be required to prepare each of the two core flood nozzle safe ends for inspection. The preparation would involve removal of the refueling canal seal plate, shielding bricks, shielding supports in the nozzle area, and insulation. The radiation levels in this area are expected to be 0.5-1 R/hr. An alternative approach is to enter from the bottom of the vessel and build a scaffold approximately 30 feet high to reach the nozzles. This approach would require approximately 80 man-hours, 40 in the 0.5-1 R/hr. area and the other 40 in the 1-2 R/hr. radiation field present at the bottom of the reactor vessel, for a total exposure of 60-120 man-Rem. Shielding is considered impractical in this area. Any remote inspection would require practically the same preparation work.
4. Alternate Examination:
Welds will be inspected by UT from the inside surface. This will provide adequate assurance of weld integrity at the OD surface.
5. Implementation Schedule:
All core flood nozzle-to-safe ends and safe end-to-pipe welds will be inspected at or near the end of the second ten-year interval.

(a) Name and Number:
Reactor Vessel Nozzle to Pipe Welds. Isometrics: System 50, Iso 26 (Unit 1)
9 (Unit 2) 29 (Unit 3)
(b) Function: Provides reactor coolant flow to steam generators
(c) ASME Section III Code Class: Class 1
(d) Valve Category: N/A
2. Reference Code Requirement That Has Been Determined To Be Impractical:
Table IWB-2500-1; Category B-J; Item B9.11 Surface Examination
3. Basis for Requesting Relief:
Relief requested from surface examination only.
There are four inlet and two outlet nozzle to pipe welds in each Oconee Reactor Coolant System. These nozzles are SA 508 C1. 2, welded to A106 Gr. C pipe. The inlet nozzle welds are 33.50" diameter, 2.33" nominal wall thickness, and the outlet nozzles are 36" diameter, 2.86" nominal wall thickness. These welds will be volumetrically inspected from the inside surface using an immersion ultrasonic technique, which will not require access to the OD surface of
the weld. Preparing these welds for surface inspection will require
removal of the refueling canal seal plate, shielding bricks, shield
ing supports in the nozzle areas, and insulation. This would require
approximately 300 man-hours of work in a 700-1000 MR/hour area for
each unit. Shielding would be impractical in this area due to the limited space and close proximity to the reactor vessel.
4. Alternate Examination:
Welds will be inspected from the inside surface. This will provide adequate assurance of weld integrity at the OD surface.
5. Implementation Schedule:
The outlet nozzle to pipe welds will be inspected during the first inspection period of the second interval. The inlet nozzle to pipe welds will be inspected during the third inspection period of the second interval.

C. 1. Component for Which Exemption Is Requested:
(a) Name and Identification Number:
Reactor Coolant System Piping System 50 Main Loop Welds in Ferritic Steel Piping
(b) Function: Circulate reactor coolant from reactor to steam generators and return
(c) ASME Section III Code Class: Class 1
(d) Valve Category: N/A
2. Reference Code Requirement That Has Been Determined To Be Impractical:
ASME Section XI and Appendix III Paragraph 111-3410 "The Basic calibration blocks shall be made from material of the same nominal diameter and nominal wall thickness as the pipe to be examined."
3. Basis for Requesting Relief:
The main reactor coolant loop piping at Oconee consists of two 36" ID, 2.86" nominal wall hot legs, four 28" ID, 2.33" nominal wall crossovers, and four 28" ID, 2.33" nominal wall cold legs. Calibration block 40350 (sketch attached) was used for the first interval inspection of this piping.
Two new calibration blocks would be required to comply with this requirement. This would require fabrication of two new piping sections, cladding, heat treatment, and machining the final calibration blocks.
Use of the existing block (40350) would assure that the second interval inspections are directly comparable to these done during the first interval.
4. Alternate Examination:
Calibration block 40350 will be used for all ultrasonic inspection of
ferritic steel reactor coolant piping welds from the OD surface. Reference levels for the inspections will be set as shown on Attach
ment 2.
Implementation Schedule:
This will apply for all ultrasonic inspections of ferritic steel
reactor coolant system piping during the second ten-year interval for Oconee Units 1, 2, and 3.

Article 5, nonmandatory Appendix A of the 1980 ASME Section V gives criteria for determining the gain adjustment needed when using a flat calibration block for inspection of a convex item with radius of greater than 10 inches. The method involves comparison of the object radius (R) to a calculated critical radius (Rc), which is dependent on transducer diameter, material, and couplant. If the ratio of the R/Rc is greater than 1.0, no gain correction is needed. The following calculations apply to the Oconee RCS piping:
1. Straight Beam Technique
(A) 28" ID pipe (33.5 OD) Transducer - 1/2" diameter, 2.25 mHz Boron Carbide wear face Synthetic Ester Couplant
from Table A-10, Transducer Factor = 23.2 from Figure A-10(a), Rc = 25
R = 16.75 R/Rc - 16.75/25 = 0.67
from Figure A-10 (b), Correction Factor = 3 db
(B) 36" ID pipe (42.0 OD) same transducer and couplant as in 1(A) R = 21 R/Rc = 21/25 = 0.84
from Figure A-10(b), Correction Factor = 2.5 db
2. Angle Beam Technique
(A) 28" ID pipe (33.5 OD) Transducer - 1.0" diameter, 2.25 mHz Plastic wedge Synthetic Ester Couplant
from Table A-10, Transducer Factor = 92.9 from Figure A-10(a), Rc = 18
R = 16.75 R/Rc = 16.75/18 = 0.93
from Figure A-10(b), correction factor = 2 db
(B) 36" ID pipe (42.0 OD) Same transducer and couplant as in 2(A) R = 21 R/Rc = 21/18 = 1.16 No correction is required.
Based on the above calculations, the following will apply to all
contact ultrasonic inspections of ferritic steel reactor coolant system piping at Oconee during the second interval:
1. Straight beam examinations will be conducted using a 1/2" diameter, 2.25 mHz transducer. The reference level sensitivity will be set at 3 db above the response from the side drilled holes.
* -2
2. Angle beam examinations will be conducted using a 1" diameter or smaller transducer. The reference level sensitivity will be set at least 3 db above the response from the notches in the block.

"T" (thickness) as defined by the-Code-includes the cladding. For this block, T = 9.09". The basic 1/4, 1/2, and 3/4T holes
will be based on this dimension.
"T" Location
Hole Actual Required Deviation
1/4T 2.250"- 2.273"- - .023"
1/2T (B)* 4.413" 4.545" ..132"
3/4T (D)* 6.743" 6.818" .075"
The '77 Edition of Section V, Article 4 allows a tolerance of
±1/8 inch for hole locations. The 1/2T (B) hole location is out
of tolerance and is located less in the thickness direction than the required 1/2T position. This does not invalidate the use of the block for calibration purposes. The hole reflectors in a calibration block are used to establish a distance-amplitude correction (DAC) curve which determines the examination sensitivity through the thickness of the component being examined. The 1/4, -1/2, and 3/4T hole locations are minimum requirements selected on the basis
of uniformity in the thickness direction. Additional hole .reflectors are allowed and can be used to more accurately define the DAC curve.
Holes identified as "A" and "C" are of these type and the range over
which the DAC is established exceeds that which would be established if only the 1/4, 1/2, and 3/4T holes were used.
The location of the holes from the ends of the block are not con
sistent with the Code requirements, however, an ASME interpretation exists which states that this dimension need not be complied with
if the proximities do -not influence the calibration. This is the
case with this block.
The Code recuires that the hole diameter.be 0.375" for this block
thickness; each of the holes should be drilled -to this diameter for
a depth of 3 inches.
To establish the sensitivity for surface planar flaws at the opposite
surface, a notch would have to be added to the block. This should
be located directly below hole "D" and extend through the clad 2%T
into the base metal.
