| Title | Automatic Reactor Trip Due to Main Generator Lockout |
| Event Description | At 1906 [EST] on 12/14/2015, Indian Point Unit 3 received a Main Generator Lockout trip signal, and the reactor automatically tripped. Site personnel reported seeing arcing on a 345kV output transmission line tower. At the time of the trip, there was moderate rain and fog in the area. The site fire brigade leader investigated the reports of arcing and found no evidence of fire; fire brigade response was not required.
All automatic systems functioned as designed and all control rods inserted automatically. Auxiliary Feedwater Pumps started automatically due to expected low steam generator levels following a reactor trip from 100% power. Unit 3 is being maintained in Mode 3 with decay heat removal via steam dumps to the condenser. Offsite power remains available and in service from 138kV to the 480V safeguards buses. The cause of the Main Generator Lockout signal is being investigated. Unit 2 was not impacted and continues to operate at 100% power. The NRC Resident Inspector has been notified. After the trip, operators observed high vibrations on the 33 reactor coolant pump which eventually returned to normal range. The licensee will be notifying the New York Public Service Commission and their local Independent System Operator. A press release will be issued by the Communications Department. |
