Title	Agreement State Report - Irradiator Safety Interlocks Bypassed
Event Description	A fuse blew during operation of an irradiator facility in Broken Bow, NE. This affected: the source up or down indication, the roof plug switch, the high temperature sensor, and the source movement light. The system could not be reset manually with the key. To verify the source was in the shielded position, an operator was sent to the roof and verified that there was no slack in the cables and the position of the cables indicated the source was in the shielded position. The interlocks were bypassed and an operator entered the cell. It was determined that there was a blown fuse and faulty wiring which were replaced. Operators did not receive any radiation dose from this event.
