| Title | Unusual Event - Loss of Startup Power Due to a Cut Cable |
| Event Description | At 1343 CST on 12/04/2013, Comanche Peak Nuclear Power Plant experienced a loss of safeguards electrical power when 345KV transformer XST2 lost power from offsite while 138KV transformer XST1 was out of service for maintenance. Non-Safeguards electrical power remained energized. Both Units remain at power in Mode 1. Both units Emergency Diesel Generators automatically started and all safeguards busses were re-energized from the Emergency Diesel Generators. All ESF systems functioned as expected and the Turbine Driven Auxiliary Feedwater Pump automatically started as designed. Operators reduced reactor power to maintain reactor power less than 100 percent rated thermal power.
At 1350 CST, the licensee declared an Unusual Event due to losing both startup transformers. The cause of the loss of the second start up transformer was a cut cable. No one was injured during this event. The licensee informed State and Local Government Agencies and the NRC Resident Inspector. Notified other Federal Agencies (DHS SWO, FEMA Ops, DHS NICC, and Nuclear SSA via email).
Correction to initial event report description; actual loss of electrical power time was 1341 CST. Include 8-HR Non-Emergency report for Specified System Actuation for automatic start of Auxiliary Feedwater and Emergency Diesel Generators. Notified the R4DO (Vasquez).
Comanche Peak terminated from the Unusual Event at 1717 CST on 12/05/13. Offsite power has been restored to both safeguard busses on both units via the transformer XST2. Work continues on transformer XST1. Comanche Peak Units 1 and 2 continue to operate at 100% power. The licensee has notified the NRC Resident Inspector. Notified R4DO (Vasquez), NRR EO (Bahadur), IRD MOC (Gott), and DHS SWO, FEMA Ops, DHS NICC, and Nuclear SSA via email. |
