Title | Automatic Reactor Protection System Actuation |
Event Description | On January 22, 2013, at approximately 0332 hours0.00384 days <br />0.0922 hours <br />5.489418e-4 weeks <br />1.26326e-4 months <br /> [EDT], an automatic Reactor Protection System (RPS) actuation occurred at the Perry Nuclear Power Plant, Unit 1. At the time of the event, the plant was in Mode 1 at 100% power. All control rods are inserted into the reactor core and the plant is currently stable in Mode 3 (Hot Shutdown) with reactor pressure and level being maintained in the normal shutdown range.
The RPS actuation was initiated by a low reactor water level (Level 3 - 178") signal. In response to the RPS actuation and subsequent reactor Level 2 (130") signal, the High Pressure Core Spray (HPCS) system and Reactor Core Isolation Cooling (RCIC) system both actuated and injected to maintain reactor coolant level. The reactor level is currently being maintained in its normal band by the feedwater system and decay heat is being removed by [turbine bypass valves to] the condenser (both HPCS and RCIC have been returned to standby). The plant is in a normal electrical line-up with all three Emergency Diesel Generators operable and available, if needed. The Containment Isolation Valves (responded to the Level 2 and 3) isolation signals as designed. The cause of the RPS actuation is under investigation. The NRC Resident Inspector has been notified. |
