This paper deals with the electrical issues related to the NRC Generic Letter (GL) 89-10. In this paper a brief background along with the basic design requirement of Motor Operated Valves (MOV) are also presented. Degraded voltage impact on the MOV's are discussed. Analytical and diagnostic techniques to study the degraded voltage issues are presented to resolve the issues raised in GL 89-10.
