On- July 2, 1993 at approximately 1800 hours0.0208 days <br />0.5 hours <br />0.00298 weeks <br />6.849e-4 months <br />, the Unie 1 fire detection monitor alarm switch was placed and left in the NoffN position. The fire detection monitor alarm swiech is a cut out switch for the pyrotronics fire detection system installed throughout the unit and within various site office buildings.
In the "off" position, visual and audible alarms associated with the pyrotronic fire detection zones will not alarm in the conerol room. However, in ehe event of a fire, a fire system actuation or C02 header pressurized alarm would still annunciaee in the control room for the areas provided with fire suppression capabilities.
Spurious fire alarms had been received and reset throughout the day. The fire system is reset by turning the fire detection system control switch to "off" and chen back to the "on" position. At approximately 1800 hours0.0208 days <br />0.5 hours <br />0.00298 weeks <br />6.849e-4 months <br /> while resetting the fire detection system, the fire detection system control switch was inadvertently left in the "off" position. Compensatory actions required by Technical Specificat'ions were not taken auEI'to the control Toom operators .being'unaware of the switch being mispositioned.
The cause of this event is personnel error. 'dministrative actions have been taken with the involved personnel.

fire detection monitor alarm switch (EIIS/IC-HS) was turned and left in the position. The fire detection monitor alarm switch is a cut out'witch for the pyiotronics fire detection system installed throughout the unit and within various site office buildings. In the "off" position, visual and audible alarms associated with the pyrotronic fire detection zones will not alarm in the control room. However, a fire system actuation or C02 header pressurized alarm would still annunciate in the control room for the areas provided with fire suppression capabilities.
Fire alarms verified as spurious, had been received from Zone 28, Non Essential Service Mater (NESW) area,'hroughout the day shift. Control room operators had routinely reset the fire system by turning the fire detection system control switch to "off" and then back to the "on" position, which would clear the spurious alarm.

or Fire" annunciator by turning the fire detection monitor alarm switch to The RO believed that he placed the switch back to "on". However, since the night shift didn't receive fire/trouble alarms until the security guard contacted 1800 the control room, evidence points to the RO who reset the alarm at approximately hours as the operator who left the alarm in the "off" position.

The RO proceeded to fire panel EF in the control room and identified at this time that the fire detection monitor alarm switch was in the "off" position. The RO turned the switch to the "on" position and the white light for Zone 28 and Zone 23 (Aux Bldg Access Control Area) illuminated and the "Unit Pyro Abn or Fire" annunciator came in. Both zones 23 and 28 were toured and no fires were found. The panels were reset and no abnormalities were noted with the local 'panels or equipment.
Cause of Event The cause of this event is personnel error. The offgoing RO did not ensure that the fire detection monitor alarm switch was returned to the "on" position after resetting the fire detection system.

~nal sls This event is considered reportable pursuant to 10CFR50.73(a)(2)(i)(B) as operation prohibited by the Plant's Technical Specifications. Technical Specification 3.3.3.7 (Fire Detection Instrumentation) requires that within one hour, an hourly fire watch patrol be established if more than in one-half of the Function A fire detectors in any Eire detection zone shown Table 3.3.10 are inoperable. With the Eire detection monitor alarm switch in the "off" position, no fire or trouble alarms could be received in the control room.
In the event of a fire, a Eire system actuation or C02 header pressurized alarm would still annunciate in the control room for the areas provided with fire suppression capabilities. In addition, routine security guard patrols and operator tours were conducted in the areas that are monitored by the fire detection system but do not have fire suppression capabilities. Based on the above, this event did not represent a significant safety concern.
Corrective Action This event was discussed with the personnel involved and their supervisor. Self checking and attention to detail were reinforced during this discussion.
