Facility Licensee Emergency Classification Dresden Unit 2 Notification of Unusual Event Exelon Generation Company Alert Morris, IL Site Area Emergency Docket: 50-237 General Emergency License: DPR-19 X Not Applicable
Subject:
UPDATE TO DRESDEN UNIT 2 SHUTDOWN DUE TO MAIN TRANSFORMER DAMAGE This Preliminary Notification provides an update to PNO-III-14-005, which addressed an April 12, 2014, shutdown when the Main Transformer sudden pressure relays actuated resulting in a generator trip and reactor trip. The main transformer takes electricity from the generator and sends it to the switchyard.
The licensee replaced the Unit 2 Main Transformer with a spare which was on site, performed testing and then restarted the unit. The licensee restarted the reactor on Saturday, April 26, 2014 and the generator was placed on the grid on April 28, 2014. NRC Resident Inspectors observed the licensees response to the plant transient and restarting activities.
This preliminary notification is issued for information only and no further action by the staff is anticipated.
Region III received initial notification of this occurrence by the NRC Resident Inspectors. The information presented herein has been discussed with the licensee, and is current as of 1:00 p.m. (CDT) on April 29, 2014.
The State of Illinois has been informed.
