Title | Automatic Reactor Trip Due to Main Genrator Output Breakers Opening. |
Event Description | AT 0439, 02/03/04, Callaway Plant experienced a reactor trip while operating transmission breakers located in the plant switchyard. Auxiliary feedwater actuated as expected to stabilize steam generator water levels. All other plant systems responded as expected. At present, the cause of the reactor trip is undetermined. Initial indications are that there were no voltage or frequency perturbations on the electrical grid. Plant staff is investigating potential areas in an effort to identify the cause of the trip.
The main generator output breakers opened when one of the transmission breakers in the switchyard was opened per the scheduled maintenance test. When the incoming Transmission line breaker was opened it should not have caused the main generator output breakers to open. All rods fully inserted into the core. Both Motor Driven Auxiliary Feedwater pumps automatically started on a loss of both main feedwater pumps and the Turbine Driven Auxiliary Feedwater pump started on low low steam generator water level. The "C" Steam Generator atmospheric steam dump valve opened for about 17 seconds before it closed (no leaking steam generator tubes in the "C" Steam Generator). All Emergency Core Cooling systems are fully operable except for the "A" Safety Injection System. It was declared inoperable when it failed a valve test last night at 0205 CST. All Emergency Diesel Generators are fully operable. Turbine Driven Auxiliary Feedwater Pump discharge valves were closed after it had operator for about two hours. Approximately one hour after the valves were closed the Turbine Driven Auxiliary Feedwater pump tripped. This incident is being investigated. The NRC Resident Inspector was notified of this event by the licensee. |
