2 04/24/04 F 13.95 A BALANCE TURBINE DUE TO VIBRATION Summary:

Oconee unit 3 began the month of April operating at approximately 100% power. On 04/23/04 at 2224 the unit began decreasing power to balance the turbine due to vibration and held at 25% power from 04/24/04 at 0326 to 0340 and at 15% power from 0413 to 0430 prior to being taken off-line 04/24/04 at 0430 to balance the turbine due to vibration.

The unit was placed on-line 04/24/04 at 1827. During power escalation, the unit held at 55% power from 2344 to 04/25/04 at 0224 to investigate 3B feedwater pump motor speed changer problem. The unit held at 67% power from 0331 to 0334 prior to decreasing power to investigate problems with stator coolant. The unit held at 65% power from 0345 to 0523 to investigate problems with stator coolant. On 04/25/04 from 0617 to 0659 the unit held at 76% power due to shift turnover. The unit held at 90% power from 0813 to 0845 due to nuclear instrumentation calibration check. The unit returned to 100% full power on 04/25/04 at 1100 and operated at or near 100% full power the remainder of the month.

McGuire unit I began the month of April, 2004 in end-of-cycle 16 refueling outage. The refueling outage was delayed due to the following reasons; 3.04 days due to steam generator eddy current testing delays, 1.75 days due to containment building clean-up, 3.72 days to troubleshoot/repair 1SM7 main steam isolation valve. The refueling outage spanned 36.92 days. The unit was placed on-line 04/12/04 at 0412 and increased to approximately 15% power and held from 0504 to 0744 prior to decreasing power to perform the turbine overspeed test. The unit was taken off-line 04/12/04 at 0858 to perform the turbine overspeed trip test. The unit was placed on-line 04/12/04 at 1024. During power escalation, the unit held at 29% power from 1401 to 2025 due to flux mapping. On 04/13/04 the unit held at approximately 44% power from 0130 to 0223 to place IB feedwater pump in header. During power escalation, the unit held from 1721 to 2159 at 78% power due to flux mapping. The unit held at 90% power on 04/14/04 from 0250 ( Cont'd )
