Title | Logic for Common Accident Signal Is Flawed for Safe Shutdown Instruction |
Event Description | Safe Shutdown Instruction (SSI) 0-SSI-9 for an Appendix R fire event requires for a Unit 1 Safe Shutdown success path that 4kV Shutdown Board A be supplied by Diesel Generator 3A via 4kV Shutdown Board 3EA. During a Unit 2 simulator exercise utilizing this SSI, reactor vessel water level lowered to Level 1 (-122 inches) causing a Common Accident Signal (CAS) trip of 4 Kv Shutdown Board 3EA inter-tie breaker (1844) that de-energized 4kV Shutdown Board A. This condition will not support the Unit 1 success path for alternate decay heat removal during an Appendix R fire. The 4 Kv Shutdown Board A must be re-energized by closing breaker 1844. For this SSI (0-SSI-9) the subsequent automatic start of the 2A RHR and Core Spray pumps in response to the CAS logic has not been considered in the development of the SSIs. In response to this condition, compensatory measures have been implemented to provide equivalent shutdown capability, documented on Fire Protection Impairment Permit (FPIP) 09-1920.
This event is reportable within 8 hours9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br /> under 10CFR50.72 (b)(3)(v)(A) - Any event or condition that results in the condition that at the time of discovery could have prevented the fulfillment of the safety function of structures or systems that are needed to: Shut down the reactor and maintain it in a safe shutdown condition. This event is also a reportable within 60 days under 10CFR50.73(a)(2)(v)(A) - Any event or condition that could have prevented the fulfillment of the safety function of structures or systems that are needed to: Shut down the reactor and maintain it in a safe shutdown condition. This condition has been documented in the BFN Corrective Action program as PER# 177130. Unit 1, 2 and 3 remain at 100% power and are not affected by this event. The NRC Resident Inspector has been notified. |
