Title | Unplanned Power Outages Affect Emergency Response Systems |
Event Description | On June 20, 2011, at approximately 0945 hours0.0109 days <br />0.263 hours <br />0.00156 weeks <br />3.595725e-4 months <br />, electrical power was lost to non-essential 120 volt busses V-1-F and V-2-F. The busses supply electrical power to the plant integrated computer system (ICS). As a result of the power loss, the Safety Parameter Display System (SPDS), the Emergency Response Data System (ERDS), and the automatic mode calculation of the Computer Aided Dose Assessment Program (CADAP) were unavailable.
Preliminary investigation indicates the power loss was caused by receipt of a spurious high temperature alarm (greater than 95 degrees F) in the Technical Support Center (TSC) facility where the electrical busses are located. The alarm signal is believed to be invalid because the high temperature alarm came in for two minutes and reset, and the ambient temperature in the TSC remained steady at 65 degrees F. Electrical busses V-1-F and V-2-F were re-energized and restored to service at 1505 hours0.0174 days <br />0.418 hours <br />0.00249 weeks <br />5.726525e-4 months <br />. The ICS, SPDS, ERDS, and CADAP systems were fully restored at 1652 hours0.0191 days <br />0.459 hours <br />0.00273 weeks <br />6.28586e-4 months <br /> on June 20, 2011. In the event of an emergency while these systems were unavailable, contingency plans were in place to transmit plant parameter data and perform the dose assessment function. This event is being reported in accordance with 10 CFR 50.72(b)(3)(xiii), as a condition that results in a major loss of emergency assessment and communications capability. The NRC Resident Inspector has been notified. |
