| Title | Automatic Reactor Trip Caused by Turbine Trip |
| Event Description | Wolf Creek experienced a reactor trip at 1549 CDT. The first out annunciator was TURBINE TRIP and P9 Reactor TRIP. At approximately the same time the unit experienced a momentary loss of offsite power.
The emergency diesel generators started [and loaded] as expected to supply power to the safety busses due to the loss of offsite power. Auxiliary Feedwater and Feedwater Isolation actuations occurred as expected. All control rods inserted into the core during the trip. All Reactor Coolant Pumps tripped due to the loss of offsite power. Decay heat was initially being removed by the Steam Generator Atmospheric Relief Valves. Presently the plant is stable in Mode 3. The 'D' Reactor Coolant Pump has been restarted. The licensee is continuing to investigate the cause of the trip. The atmospheric relief valves lifted for approximately 10 minutes, however there was no primary to secondary leakage. Both A & B EDG's loaded for about 2 minutes. At the present time the electrical lineup is normal and the EDG's are shutdown. Plant is at Normal Operating Pressure and just below Normal Operating Temperature. Decay heat and S/G levels are being maintained with the Auxiliary Feedwater pumps. The licensee has notified the NRC Resident Inspector. The Licensee may issue a press release on this event.
The atmospheric relief valves lifted for approximately 2 minutes, not 10 minutes as stated above. Also the A & B EDG's did not load for only 2 minutes. Actually "the B Safety Bus was paralleled to its normal off site source and the B Emergency Diesel was realigned for auto-start at 1740. The A Safety Bus was paralleled to its normal off site source and the A Emergency Diesel was realigned for auto-start at 1844. Notified the R4DO (Jones).
The initial report stated that there was no primary to secondary leakage. Actual primary to secondary leakage as measured on 8/14/2009 was a value of less than 0.722 gallons per day. The licensee notified the NRC Resident Inspector. Notified the R4DO (Miller) |
