Title | Automatic Reactor Trip Due and Automatic Actuation of Auxiliary Feedwater System |
Event Description | The following information was provided by the licensee via email:
At 0956 CST with Unit 1 in Mode 1 at 100 percent power, the reactor automatically tripped due to a turbine trip. The trip was not complex with all safety related systems responding normally post-trip. During the trip, the non safety related '1A' 4160V bus lost power resulting in the loss of one Reactor Coolant Pump (RCP-1A). Operations responded and stabilized the plant. The '1A' 4160V bus was re-energized at 1031 CST. Decay heat is being removed by steam dumps to the main condenser. Farley Unit 2 is not affected. An automatic actuation of [Auxiliary Feedwater] AFW also occurred, which is an expected response from the reactor trip. Due to the Reactor Protection System actuation while critical, this event is being reported as a four-hour, non-emergency notification per 10 CFR 50.72(b)(2)(iv)(B) and an eight-hour report per 10 CFR 50.72(b)(3)(iv)(A) as an event that results in a valid actuation of the Auxiliary Feedwater System. There was no impact on the health and safety of the public or plant personnel. The NRC Resident Inspector has been notified. |
