MAIN TURBINE TRIP GENERATED BY HI HI STEAM GENERATOR lB 1 02/04/03 F
37.10 A
LEVEL Summary:
Catawba unit I began the month of February operating at approximately 100% full power. On 03/04/02 at 1005 a automatic reactor trip was initiated from 100% full power by a main turbine trip generated by Hi Hi steam generator lB level. The unit was placed on-line 02/05/03 at 2311. During power escalation, the unit held at 18% power from 02/06/03 at 0013 to 0103 due to main feedwater nozzle swap. The unit held at 55% power from 0520 to 0550 to place second main feedwater pump in service. The unit held at 87% power from 1044 to 1207 to perform the main turbine control valve movement test. The unit returned to 100% full power on 02/06/03 at 1700 and operated at or near 100% full power the.
remainder of the month.
