~10 seconds later. Flow came on full when the pumps were restarted as the valves were already open. The operators secured the Turbine Driven Auxiliary Feedwater pump at 12:57: 39 as levels were above their no-load target of 38%. The operators then adjusted auxiliary feedwater flow to maintain steam generator level with the higher than normal stean demand.

The levels smoothed out once main steam was isolated. Ac 30 minates after the trip all 4 steam generators were within 4% of the no-load target level.

At 21:49:48 the 2 out of 3 undervoltage logic for ETA and ETB was satisfied. The blackout logic initiated properly fcr both trains, and both diesel generators started. Once the 8 second time delay and voltage test were completed, the two sequencers load shed and loaded the blackout load groups on the diesels. All loads were on the diesel within 15 seconds of the blackout logic actuation, as expected by the accelerated sequence.

Containment ventilation was isolated at 21:49:34 when the circuit breaker for EMF's 38, 39, 40 opened.

No Safety Injection actuation occurred. The pressurizer PORV's and code safety valves were not challenged. Indicated pressurizer and steam generator levels remained on-scale. The primary temperature decrease was within the 100 degrees F/ hour Technical Specification limit. There was no abnormal release of radioactivity during this event, and no abnormal coolant leakage.

CORRECTIVE ACTION: Corrective actions have been initiated to prevent recurrence of this event. These actions include addition of a control output relay test circuit to provide computer maintenance and operating personnel with confirmation that all control output relays are open prior to re-enabling control outputs. Also, the computer's initialization software has been modified to reset all control output relays to the "open" position on re-initialization (manual and auto-restart).

Relay settings on the Craighead White and Mecklenburg Black lines, which tripped on overcurrent during the event, have been increased to allow these two lines to carry full Unit 1 output.

Other related corrective actions included:

1) Relay house emergency lighting was improved. Low-level emergency lighting in the switchyard relay house hampered restoration of power to the switchyard.
2) Operating and maintenance activities were reviewed for potential impact on off-site power.
3) Consideration is being given to the replacement of existing " latching" type control outputs with " momentary" type outputs.
4) Independent of this incident, plans had been made to replace the existing switchyard computer by March 1988.
