Specify in Abstract below or in SUMMARY OF THE EVENT, INCLUDING DATES AND APPROXIMATE TIMES An Intermediate Range High Flux reactor trip signal was generated unexpectedly while personnel were replacing a circuit card associated with a bistable card (IEEE system JC ) for SEN0036 (IEEE system IG component RE). The following events took place starting at approximately 10:29 am on December 12, 2008:
10:29 Maintenance technicians were authorized to start a plant job to replace a bistable card for intermediate range neutron level channel SEN0036.
10:31 SENI0036A, intermediate range channel 36 neutron level indicator, was taken out of service for maintenance.
10:43 Reactor tripped on intermediate range high flux. (Note: Subsequently, a Feedwater Isolation Signal (FWIS) was generated and feedwater flow to all four steam generators (If more space is required, use additional copies of (If more space is required, use additional copies of (If more space is required, use additional copies of NRC Form 366A) (17) satisfying the logic to generate the Intermediate Range High Flux Reactor Trip Signal.
Corrective actions include the following:
- 1) Labels will be installed on the control power fuses for both trains of the SR and IR Nuclear Instrumentation to flag that pulling them could have significant impact on the plant.
- 2) Instrumentation and Controls personnel will receive additional training on the IR and SR Nuclear Instrumentation, covering an overview on systems function and operation. The training will also provide an overview on how the system interacts with SSPS permissive relays.
