Peach Bottom Atomic Power Station Unit 2 January 1 through January 31, 2002 Narrative Summary of Operating Experiences Unit 2 began the month of January at 100% power.

At 2310, on January 9th, Unit 2 reduced power to 94% for a planned change out of the HCU accumulators. The Unit returned to 100% power by 0054 on January 10th.

At 2304 on January 11t f, Unit 2 reduced power to 54% for a planned control rod sequence exchange. The Unit returned to 100% power by 0553 on January 13 t.

At 2310 on January 15th, Unit 2 reduced power to 90% for a planned follow-up rod pattern adjustment. The Unit returned to 100% power by 0026 on January 16"h.

At 0745 on January 19th, Unit 2 reduced power to 99% for a planned PMS computer system outage and mod acceptance testing. The Unit returned to 100% power by 0005 on January 20th.

Unit 2 ended the month of January at 100% power.

Peach Bottom Atomic Power Station Unit 3 January 1 through January 31, 2002 Narrative Summary of Operating Experiences Unit 3 began the month of January at 100% power.

At 0109 on January 13t, Unit 3 reduced power to 21% due to high resistance in the generator potential transformer circuit. The turbine generator was taken off line during this evolution, at 1142 on January 13th. Following repairs, the Unit was synchronized to the grid at 0717 on January 14th. The Unit returned to 100% power by 0651 on January 15%.

At 0130 on January 16th, Unit 3 reduced power to 84% for a follow-up rod pattern adjustment.

The Unit returned to 100% power by 0414 on January 16t.

At 1032 on January 24th, Unit 3 reduced power to 74% following a runback signal from the 3A recirc pump. After troubleshooting and repairs were completed, the Unit returned to 100%

power by 0542 on January 25t%.

Unit 3 ended the month of January at 100% power.
