ABSTRACT Traditionally, probabilistic risk assessments (PRA) of severe accidents in nuclear power plants have considered initiating events potentially occurring only during full power operation. Some previous screening analyses that were performed for other modes of operation suggested that risks during those modes were small relative to full power operation. However, more recent studies and operational experience have implied that accidents during low power and shutdown could be significant contributors to risk.

During 1989, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) initiated an extensive program to carefully examine the potential risks during low power and shutdown operations. The program includes two parallel projects being performed by Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL) and Sandia NationalLaboratories (SNL).

Two plants, Surry (pressurized water reactor) and Grand Gulf (boiling water reactor), were selected as the plants to be studied.

The objectives of the program are to assess the risks of severe accidents initiated during plant operational states other than full power operation and to compare the estimated core damage frequencies, important accident sequences and other qualitative and quantitative results with those accidents initiated during full power operation as assessed in NUREG-1150. The scope of the program includes that of a level-3 PRA.

The objective of this volume of the report is to document the approach utilized in the level-1 internal events PRA for the Surry plant, and discuss the results obtained. A phased approach was used in the level-1 program. In phase 1, which was completed in Fall 1991, a coarse screening analysis examining accidents initiated by internal events (including internal fire and flood) was performed for all plant operational states (POSs). The objective of the phase 1 study was to identify potential vulnerable plant configurations, to characterize (on a high, medium, or low basis) the potential core damage accident scenarios, and to provide a foundation for a detailed phase 2 analysis.

In phase 2, mid-loop operation was selected as the plant configuration to be analyzed based on the results of the phase 1 study. The objective of the phase 2 study is to perform a detailed analysis of the potential accident scenarios that may occur during mid-loop operation, and compare the results with those of NUREG-1150. The scope of the level-1 study includes plant damage state analysis, and uncertainty analysis.

Volume 1 summarizes the results of the study. Internal events analysis is documented in Volume 2. It also contains an appendix that documents the part of the phase 1 study that has to do with POSs other than mid-loop operation. Internal fire and internal flood analyses are documented in Volumes 3 and 4. A separate study on seismic analysis, documented in Volume 5, was performed for the NRC by Future Resources Associates, Inc. Volume 6 documents the accident progression, source terms, and consequences analysis.

In the phase 2 study, system models applicable for shutdown conditions were developed and supporting thermal hydraulic analysis were performed to determine both the timing of the accidents and success criteria for systems. Initiating events that may occur during mid-loop operations were identified and accident sequence event trees were developed and quantified. In the preliminary quantification of the mid-loop accident sequences, it was found that the decay heat at which the accident initiating event occurs is an important parameter that determines both the success criteria for the mitigating functions and the time available for operator actions. In order to better account for the decay heat, a "time window" approach was

  • iii NUREG-CR/6144

developed. In this approach, time windows after shutdown were defined based on the success criteria

  • established for the various methods that can be used to mitigate the accident. Within each time window, the decay heat and accident sequence timing are more accurately defined and new event trees developed and quantified accordingly. Statistical analysis of the past outage data was performed to determine the time at which a mid-loop condition is reached, and the duration of the mid-loop operation. Past outage data were used to determine the probability that an accident initiating event occurs in each of the time windows. This probability is used in the quantification of the accident sequences.

The mean core damage frequency of the Surry plant due to internal events that may take place during mid-loop operations is SE-06 per year, and the 5th and 95th percentiles are SE-07 and 2E-05 per year, respectively. This can be compared with the mean core damage frequency from internal events of 4E-05 per year estimated in the NUREG-1150 study for full power operations.

FOREWORD (NUREG/CR-6143 and 6144)

Low Power and Shutdown Probabilistic Risk Assessment Program Traditionally,probabilisticrisk assessments (PRA) of severe accidents in nuclear power plants have considered initiating events potentially occurring only during full power operation. Some previous screening analysis that were performed for other modes of operation suggested that risks during those modes were small relative to full power operation. However, more recent studies and operational experience have implied that accidents during low power and shutdown could be significant contributors to risk.

During 1989, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) initiated an extensive program to carefully examine the potential risks during low power and shutdown operations. The program includes two parallel projects performed by Brookhaven National Laboratory(BNL) and Sandia National Laboratories(SNL), with the seismic analysis performed by Future Resources Associates. Two plants, Surry (pressurized water reactor) and Grand Gulf (boiling water reactor), were selected as the plants to be studied.

The objectives of the program are to assess the risks of severe accidents due to internal events, internal fires, internal floods, and seismic events initiated during plant operational states other than full power operation and to compare the estimated core damage frequencies, important accident sequences and other qualitative and quantitative results with those accidents initiated during full power operation as assessed in NUREG-1150.

The scope of the program includes that of a level-3 PRA.

The results of the program are documented in two reports, NUREG/CR-6143 and 6144. The reports are organized as follows:

Appendix A.2 Descriptions of Events Used in the Quantification A-18

p. LER DATA BASE* RHR2A 08/27/93 PHASE 2 PLANT NAME EVENT INITIAL PLANT RECOVERY CATEGORY DATE CONDITION TIME RHR2A Arkansas Nuclear 2 08/29i84 Mode 5 (from AEOO): During RCS draindown, faulty level instrunentation led to air _binding of the DHR pul1). A tygon mananeter configuration was being used - however, the operators did not account for reactor vessel pressurization due to the presence of nitrogen purge gas. RCS t~. went from 140 deg Fah to 205 deg Fah .~11pprox. 35 min. toss).

(from CR5015): Power Level - 0%. On 8/29/84 the plant was in mode 5 and the RCS level was being monitored by a temporary level indicator coMected to the bottom of the RCS hot leg and vented to atmosphere. A nitrogen purge of the RCS was in progress to usweept* hydrogen from the system prior to maintenance. The RCS was being vented via the upper vessel head vent and due to nitrogen flow exceeding vent flow capacity the RCS became slightly pressurized. This resulted in a manometer effect and inaccurate indication of RCS level. The level indication inaccuracy led to draining of the water in the RCS hot leg below the minillUII level for adequate shutdown cool fng pul1) suction. SOS loop flow indication began oscillating between 2000 and 4000 gpm indicating cavitation of the SOC pul1).

Consequently the us 11 soc pul1) was nitrogen purge were secured. Decay heat removal aligrment was shifted to the uA 11 SOC loop and normal flow of approx. 3000 gpm was established. During the period SOC flow was off, RCS bulk average temperature increased from approx. 140 to 205 deg Fah resulting in a change from mode 5 to mode 4. To prevent recurrence the temporary level system reference leg has been changed from venting to atmosphere to venting to the pressurizer steam space. Changes have been made to nonnal and abnonnal operating procedures to irrprove system and operator response to similar events.

RHR2A Catawba 1 04/22/85 Mode 5 12 min (from Seabrook): Both trains of Residual Heat Removal (ND) were inoperable. This was the result of ND Train A being declared inoperable on April 20, 1985, at 1600 hrs for the performance of various ND Train A related work requests and ND Puq> B being secured on April 22, 1985, at 2039:21 hrs due to loss of purrp suction. Also, Tecli. Spec. 3.4.1.4~2 was violated on April 22, 1985 at 0522 hrs when reactor coolant (NC) system draining began with ND train A inoperable.

(from CR5015): Power level - OX. on April 22, 1985, from 2039:21 to 2051:17 hrs, both trains of residual heat removal (RHR) were inoperable. This was a result of RHR train A being declared inoperable on April 20, 1985, at 1600 hrs, for the perfonnance of various train A related work requests, and RHR purrp B being secured on April 22, 1985, at 2039:21 hrs due to loss o f ~ suction.

Also, tech spec 3.4.1.4.2 was violated on April 22, 1985, at 0522 hrs when reactor coolant (RC) system draining began with RHR train A inoperable.* Catawba Unit 1 was in mode 5 (cold shutdown) when these incidents occurred. False RC system level indication apparently contributed to the loss of RHR pul1) B suction. However, the cause.of the false level indication is not known at this time. With RHR Train A inoperable, the limiting conditions for operation of Tech Spec 3.4.1.4.2 were not met. However, prior to begiming RC system draining, a decision had been made to allow draining to begin with RHR2A Cook 2 06/16/88 22 min After all fuel from the reactor vessel had been removed with the reactor cavity flooded, the upper internals were replaced. The mid-loop water level indicator was valved out. The water level was reduced by ~ing water to the refueling water storage tank at 2000 gpm wi~h a residual heat removal pul1). When the observed water level decreased to the top of the upper internals, the pul1) began to cavitate. The pul1) was stopped and vented. The purrp was then started at a reduced flow rate. After approximately 22 minutes of operation with the observed water level just below the top of the upper internals, the purrp again started to cavitate. The mid-loop water level indicator was valved in and indicated that the reactor vessel level was at mid-loop. Because the purrp flow rate exceeded the leakage rate around the upper internals, a void had been created under the upper internals. The industry was informed of this event in INPO Significant Event Report CSER) 36-88.

p. 2 PHASE 2 PLANT NAME EVENT INITIAL PLANT RECOVERY CATEGORY DATE CONDITION TIME RHR2A Davis Besse 1 04/18/80 Mode 5 29 min (from NSAC52, p. A-11): RCS water level decreased from 7011 to 3711 above the.hot leg piping centerline, causing erratic flow rate due to inadequate pump suction conditions. The RHRS pump was secured five minutes later at a level of 35 11
  • The inventory loss was via a partially open discharge valve from RHRS cooler #2 to the makeup and purification system. Sane inventory may have also been lost via cross connects to RHRS loop 1, which was being drained.

(from AEOD): 29-minute Loss of OHR. Leakage of RCS water through a partially closed valve resulted in inadequate DHR pump NPSH and erratic JX.111P flow operation. The pump was secured until the leak was stopped and RCS level restored. During the event, RCS tel11)erature rose from 93 deg Fah to 103 deg Fah.

RHR2A Ginna 04/12/83 Mode 6 12 min (from Seabrook): Prior to the dilute chemical addition, a small amount of water was being used in the channel head in conji.,ction with air pressure at 30 psig to properly seat the dams to minimize leakage past the dams into RCS. During this process, water drained coopletely through the leaky dam in the cold leg nozzle, thus allowing air to pass through, resulting in an air bubble formation passing through the RCS and entraining the RHR pump suction thus causing loss of the RHR located on the hot leg of the same loop. The RHR pump in operation at the time was manually tripped by the Control Room operator to prevent damage to the pump. Prior to this event, the RCS Boron Concentration had been borated to greater than 2400 ppm (2~00 ppm required for refueling shutdown mode).

The AP~ was secured and the B RHR P~ started but suction was not available.

(from AEOO): Inadequate monitoring of RCS level. Loss of RHR l)U1" suction. (Duration of event 1i1known)

RHR2A North Ame 2 10/16/84 Mode 5 2 hr (from Seabrook Sheet 7 of 9): A coaplete loss of Residual Heat Removal (RHR) capability occurred when both RHR.~ were wiable to operate due to the introduction of air into the RHR system. The incident occurred during the drain down of the Reactor Coolant System (RCS) when the level of the RCS was being monitored via a standpipe off the centerline of one of the RCS loops.

(from AEOD): Clogging of a standpipe used for RCS level monitoring resulted in a 64 11 error. Upon introduction of air, the operating~ cavitated. The redundant p111p was started and it also cavitated. Both~ became airbcx.rld (2 hr loss).

(from CR5015): Power level - 0%. On 10-16-84, with North Anna Unit 2 in Mode 5 a complete loss of RHR capability occurred when both RHR ~ were unable to operate due to the introduction of air into the RHR system. The incident occurred during the drain down of the RCS, when the level of the RCS was being IIIDnitored via a standpipe off the centerline of one of the RCS loops. The isolation valve to which the standpipe was attached became clogged sometime during the drain down and falsely indicated 64 11 above centerline when in fact the level was below the RHR suction line (below centerline).

Subsequently, letdown from the RCS w~s isolated and makeup initiated. RHR capability -was regained 2 hrs after initiation of the event. RCS level indication was moved to an alternate tap off toop centerline and indicated satisfactorily.

RHR2A San Onofre 2 03/26/86 Mode 5 49 min (from CR5015): Power level* 0%. March 26, 1986 at 2208 with Unit 2 in cold shutdown, the shutdown cooling system (SOCS) experienced a total loss of flow for a period of 49 minutes. This occurred while reactor coolant system (RCS) level was being reduced to repair a leaking cold leg steam generator nozzle dam which had been installed to allow work in steam generator channel heads. Using the established level indication, which was later found to be in error, the RCS was drained to a level where vortexing occurred at the RCS/SOCS suction connection causing the SOCS/LPSI ~ to eventually become airbound. The~ were stopped and the system vented, reestablishing socs flow at 2257.

concurrent with the restoration of socs flow, both gas channels of the fuel handling isolation system actuated on high noble gas a result of the RCS degasing. The high pressure safety injection system was used to make-up to the RCS until SOCS flow returned to a stable state. The cause of the event was erroneous level indication resulting in the operators not recognizing the RCS low level condition prior to coaplete loss of SOCS flow. IlllllE!diate corrective action was taken to prevent SDCS/LPSI ~ damage, restore socs flow to a stable state and recalibrate the level indicators. Changes in plant design, procedural revisions, formal control of level indicator installation, and operator training will be undertaken.

Investigation found a shut pressurizer vent valve which isolated the reactor vessel level indicating system internal reference leg. The pressurizer vent and reactor vessel head vent were opened, and standpipe level stabilized approx. 5 feet lower than the previously indicated level. (Close to the RHRS suction tap off an RCS hot leg.) Attempts to restart the RHRS JlUl1) failed due to air entrained in the RHRS suction line. The RHRS suction valves were closed and the RlolST suction valve was opened in order to provide a positive suction to the RHRS ~ - Flow was restored 75 minutes after event initiation.

At 1035 hrs on 3-14-86 operations personnel, in preparation for maintenance on SI-406A, loop 2 shutdown cooling return relief valve, started low pressure safety injection CLPSI) JlUl1) B (BP). The primary nuclear plant operator observed the flow in the B shutdown cooling (BP) train to be zero CO gpm) and LPSI ~ B motor current to be 33 ~ - The control room supervisor ordered the JlUl1) secured, and proceeded to the B safeguards JlUl1) room to investigate local conditions. The investigation revealed that SJ-1248, low pressure safety injection puJ1) B discharge valve, was closed with a danger tag affixed to the valve. The valve was mistakenly closed during a tag-out which was conducted on the 3/13-14/86 midnight shift. The valve was opened and at 1154 hrs on 3-14-86 the B LPSI ~ was placed into service. The valve was inadvertently closed because plant operators did not use the clearance request sheet when they conducted the tag-out. To prevent this from recurring, a revision will be made to procedure UNT-5-003, "Clearance Requests, Approval and Release," and the operations superintendent will stress the function of clearance sheets with operations. personnel.

RHR2A Waterford 07/14/86 Mode 5 3 hr 41 min (from CR5015): Power level - 0%. On July 14, 1986 Waterford Steam Electric Station Unit 3 was in Mode

_5 (cold shutdown) when operations personnel were draining the reactor coolant system (RCS) CAB) to facilitate the replacement of the seal package for reactor coolant JlUl1) 2A. The RCS was being maintained by draining into the refueling water storage pool (RWSP) (via the low pressure safety injection~ B mini-recirculation valves, Sl-1208, -1218) and holdup tanks (via the chemical volume control system (CB) purification ion SI-423). At 0113 hrs operations persomel secured draining the RCS by closing SJ-423. However, operations personnel neglected to close SJ-1208 and -1218 resulting in RCS inventory being~ into the RWSP. In addition, because of insufficient nitrogen pressure, local reactor vessel level indication was suspect. At 0317 hrs LPSI pu'i) B began cavitating.

Operations inmecliately secured the pu!i), tenninating shutdown cooling (SOC) (BP). At 0658 hrs SOC was restored by a process of refilling the RCS and cycling the LPSI punps to restore flow. (Since the RCS tell1)erature increased to the point of localized boiling, the LPSI punps were subjected to steam binding). This event was due to sinultaneously using more than one method of draining the RCS, and inaccurate level indication. These problems will be corrected by plant modification and procedural changes.

RHR2A Waterford 3 05/12/88 (from NUREG-1410): The reactor vessel water level was being lowered to mid-loop to remove the steam generator nozzle dams and to test a new digital reactor vessel water level indicator. Tygon ti.bing was being used to monitor the reactor vessel water level.

(from AEOO): While draining the RCS in preparation for primary-secondary leak testing, the RCS level dropped below the DHR suction line. The liquid level was being read from a manometer type arrangement.

Incorrect level measurement resulted from the fact that the manometer reference leg was pressurized by nitrogen purge gas. RCS teq,erature increased from 110 deg Fah to 147 deg Fah (45 min. loss).

(from CR5015): Power level - 0%~ While in cold shutdown, draining the RCS in preparation for SG primary-secondary leak testing the RCS level dropped below the suction line for the RHR pulp as a result of an inproper valve lineup which gave false indication of the RCS level. The RHR punp was stopped when it was noticed that the motor anperage was fluctuating. The valve lineup was checked and the lineup error corrected. RCS level was increased to normal and the RHR pulp was restarted. RCS tenperature increased from 110 F to'147 F during the 45 minutes the punp was off. No abnormal conditions developed as a result of this event. Station procedures will be revised to prohibit simultaneous draining and purging operations, a procedure for loss of RHR will be prepared. Retraining will be conducted in proper valve lineup procedures.

RHR2B Diablo Canyon 2 04/10/87 Mode 5 1 hr 28 min (frcm LER Search): On April 10, 1987, at 2123 PDT, with the Unit in Mode 5 (cold shutdown) during a refueling outage, RHR flow was interrupted when both RHR trains became inoperable due to airbound RHR purps. The 10 CFR 50.72 report was made at 2230 POT. The RCS had been drained to midloop level for SG nozzle dam installation. The loss of RCS inventory to the reactor coolant drain tank due to a leaking valve caused a decrease in RCS water level, vortexing in the purps* suction line, and air entrainnent in the RHR purps. At 2251 PDT, after verification that the SG manways were still installed and after venting of the RHR JlU1'>5, the RCS was flooded from the refueling water storage tank and an RHR pulp started. RHR flow was interrupted for approx. 1 hr and 28 minutes. This resulted in some localized boiling and, contrary to TS 3.0.4, an inadvertent entry to Mode 4 (hot shutdown) but no damage to the core or significant radiological release occurred. The unit was stable at 0230 FDT, April 12, 1987, and was returned to normal Mode 5 midloop operation. The nunerous actions taken to prevent recurrence of this event, including procedure revisions, training, and design changes, are described in the text of this LER.

The erratic discharge pressure and flow were the result of an i111Jroperly placed jUll1Jer which caused a LPSI discharge valve to cycle open/closed. The failure to properly place the jU111Jer was the result of a data transposition error during the plaMing phase for "as-left" valve testing. Shutdown cooling flow was isolated for 29 minutes, with PCS teqlerature increasing from 92 to 129 degrees F. Shutdown cooling flow was restored after the errantly placed jU111Jer was removed. All similar valve testing was iamediately stopped and all jU111Jers installed to support testing removed.

(from NUREG-1410) The reactor was in cold shutdown with the reactor coolant system drained to mid-loop for steam generator nozzle dam modification. An errantly placed jUll1Jer in the control circuit for the operating low pressure safety injection l)U1'l caused the valve to cycle open and close. The valve cycling caused the reactor coolant system level to rise and fall, which resulted in 1000 gallons of water being -pu1')ed out through the open steam generator manways. The l)U1'l was then tripped by the operators. During the 29 minutes decay heat removal was lost, the reactor coolant tenp. increased from 92 deg Fah. to 129deg Fah.

No personnel were injured, and there was no equipment damage. The cause of the faulty level indication was collection of debris in the inlet to the sight glass which was being monitored. Operations initiated weekly flushings of the sight glass and installed a redundant tygon tube which will be COllpSred to the sight glass level on a daily basis *

Because of a faulty level indicator, the reactor coolant system water level was reduced U'ltil the operating residual heat removal putp started losing suction. Approx. 500 gallons of water were spilled from the steam generator manways when level was increased using the charging purp. The false level indication was caused by the presence of debris in the inlet to the sight glass which was being monitored. During the 90 minutes that decay heat removal was lost, the reactor coolant temp. increased*

from 95 deg Fah to 115 deg Fah.

RHR2B Sequoyah 1 05/23/88 Mode 5 (from LER Search): On May 23, 1988, at 1215 EDT, while Unit 1 was in cold shutdown with the reactor coolant system (RCS) partially drained to support maintenance, a loss of the operating train of the residual heat removal (RHR> system occurred. The "B" train of RHR was in operation when it was decided to place the "A" train RHR heat exchanger in service to enhance plant temperature control. To place the "A" train in service, an assistant unit operator (AUO) was dispatched to open two valves. The AUO, however, misunderstood the instruction and wrote down an incorrect valve nunber. The incorrect valve was a manual valve (1-HCV-74-34) used to align the discharge of the RHR purps to the refueling water storage tank (R~ST). Upon opening valve 1-HCV*74*34, the AUO heard unusual flow noise and subsequently telephoned the control room CCR) operator for further instructions. The assistant shift operation supervisor (ASOS) in the CR received an RHR mini flow alarm, and noticed RHR putp alll)erage oscillating, unstable flow indication, and the indicated RCS water level was off-scale low. The ASOS subsequently stopped the 11 811 train RHR puq:> and entered the applicable action statements of Tech Specs for a Loss of RHR. The RCS was then refilled above the top of the RCS loops by gravity feed from the R~T via the RHR system.

RHR2B Surry 1 05/17/83 Mode 5 (from Seabrook Sheet 3 of 9): The B RHR puq:> was removed from service on two occasions due to cavitation. This resulted in less than two operable RHR loops and no loops in operation.

RHR2B Trojan 05/04/84 Mode 5 40 min (from Seabrook Sheet 4 of 9): During an RCS drain down to support refueling operations at 1650 on May 4, 1984, Residual Heat Removal CRHR) Cooling could not be reinitiated for a total of 40 minutes due to air entrail"lllent in the suction of the A RHR ~ - Both RHR !)U1')S had been stopped for ten minutes for amual ESF actuation response time testing. An additional 30 minutes were required to restore sufficient RCS water inventory to restart an RHR puip. The 8 RHR 1)1.111) was then started and the RCS t~rature rise was terminated. The highest indicated RCS hot leg t~rature reached about 201 deg Fahrenheit.

(from AEOO): During RCS draindown faulty level measurement led to air binding of the RHR 1)1.111). The RCS was vented to atmosphere. A tygon manometer configuration was being used to measure RCS level, however, 11crud blockage" of the manometer tap led to erroneous level measurement. RCS t~rature went from 105 deg Fah to 201 deg Fah (40 min. loss).

RHR2B Zion 2 12/14/85 Mode 5 75 min (from CR5015): Power level - 0%. On 12-14 at 3:25, 28 RHR ~ became airbound as a result of vortexing. Unit 2 was in cold shutdown with the reactor head installed but not tensioned and the RCS vented to atmosphere. 2B RHR PJ1') had been in operation providing decay heat removal with RHR letdown in progress and 2B charging 1)1.111) providing make-up flow to the RCS. Decay heat removal was lost for 75 minutes with a RCS change in t~rature of 15 degrees F. The unit had been shutdown for approx. 100 days therefore the safety significance was minimal. The cause of the event was identified to be inadequate procedures coupled with the lack of knowledge of the level at which the RHR Pl.l11)S begin to cavitate. As a contributing factor, there were problems found with the level indication. To prevent recurrence, procedures will be reviewed and changed reflecting the lessons learned. :Training will be concb:ted on RCS level measurement and loss of RHR suction. The RCS level system will be modified in order to provide reliable remote level indication during all refueling configurations.

Borated water was spraying from the area where the pipe was welded to the header nozzle at the rate of approx. 1 gpm. At 2330 on March 24, 1987, shutdown cooling flow was reduced below the Tech Spec requirement of 3000 gpm and Unit 2 entered an action statement. At 0430 on March 25, 1987, an alternate cooling path from the reactor vessel hot leg nozzle, through LPSI pl.lip #22 through the SDC heat exchanger to the spent fuel pool and the fuel transfer canal and to the refueling pool was established. At 0920 work was begun on replacing the leaking pipe spool and relief valve with a tenporary mechanical device (i.e., nipple and cap) per plant procedures. After this replacement was conpleted, SOC was reestablished in the nranal mode at 1450 on March 25, 1987.

RHR4 Arkansas 2 10/13/79 Mode 6 (from NSAC52, p. A-30): An RHRS heat exchanger tube leak was indicated by an increase in the heat exchanger radiation 11100itor reading. The heat exchanger was then isolated on both the service water and reactor coolant sides.

RHR4 Arkansas 2 01/09/83 Mode 5 An alarm was received on the Service Water (SW) monitor CWRITS-1453) for the shutdown cooling (SOC) heat exchanger (2E-35A) which indicated the possibility of a tube leak. Radiochemistry sall1)ling verified the tube leak.20-35A was secured and the redundant heat exchanger (2E-35B) was placed in service. Since this leak from the SOC system to the SW system was a degradation of a system designed to contain radioactive matter. A previous occurrence regarding SOC tube leaks was reported in LER-79-086. It should be noted that this heat exchanger tube bundle had been replaced during the last Unit 2 refueling outage.

(from CR5015): Power level - OX. on Feb. 2, 1986, Crystal River Unit 3 was in Mode 5 while perfoming repairs on a reactor coolant plJIP. The reactor coolant system was vented to the reactor bldg atmosphere and drained below the level of the reactor coolant purps. At 2148 hrs, decay heat PJ1'> 1B tripped due to a motor overload caused by a plJIP sh~ft failure. Start-up of the redundant plJIP was delayed because an isolation valve on the suction side of the puip could not be opened from the control room. The valve was manually opened and system operation was restored at 2212 hrs. On Feb. 14, 1986, the 11811 train of the decay heat removal system was being refilled and movement of the PJ1'> and piping was noticed. Examination of pipe restraints in the system revealed that ~.eyerat pipe hangers *were loose or damaged. All damaged equipment has been repaired. Both decay heat purp; have been rebuilt.

Decay heat removal system operating procedures have been revised to address mini111.111 required reactor coolant level and provide iq,roved fill and vent instructions. New breaker and torque switch settings have been established for the isolation valve. Preventative maintenance procedures will require periodic lubrication of the valve drive shaft.

RHR4 Farley 2 11/27/87 Refueling outage *

(from LER Search): This special report is being submitted in accordance with Technical Specification 3.4.10.3. At 0445 on 11-27-87, during a refueling outage, a residual heat removal (RHR) loop suction pressure relief valve opened when one of two series RHR containnent suq, suction valves in the same train (HOV 8812A) was stroked. Reactor coolant system (RCS) pressure and pressurizer level decreased.

The level and pressure in the pressurizer relief tank (PRT) (to which the RHR relief valve relieves) increased and the PRT rupture disk ruptur-ed. Based on these indications, it was believed that the relief valve may have stuck in the open position. To isolate the relief valve, the operators stopped the RHR P'1'> in the affected train and closed the loop suction isolation valves. This event was apparently caused by a localized pressure pulse created when MOV 8812A was opened. The section of pipe A-33

Apparently, the filling of this space, which. occurred when MOV 8812A was opened, caused a localized pressure pulse which resulted in the lifting of the relief valve. To prevent recurrence, the applicable procedure.swill be changed to ensure that lines drained for local leak rate testing are subsequently refilled.

RHR4 McGuire 1 11/23/88 Mode 6 39 min (frcm LER Search): On 11/28/88, at 1643, perfonnance personnel were perfonning the contairment spray (NS) system valve stroke timing procedure for valve 1NS-18, NS suction frcm contairment surp. About 25 sec after the execution of the valve stroke timing test, RHR (ND)~ 18 lost its suction pressure and

  • operations (OPS) manually stopped the pul1) to prevent damage to the purp. Unit 1 was in mode 6, refueling, with train 18 of the ND system in operation. OPS ill1)lemented loss of ND procedure, and directed the reactor head maintenance crew to exit the reactor cavity area. At 1722, OPS after ensuring that ND train 1A was properly fjlled and vented, cross connected train 1A to the train 18 heat exchanger to pressurize the train 1A piping, started NO purp 1A, and put train 1A of the ND system in service to provide decay heat removal for the reactor coolant (NC) system. Between 1643 to 1722, the NC system tenp. increased frcm 90 F to 116 F. At 1930, after filling and venting ND train 18 piping and ND JXIIP 18, OPS started ND pulp 18. At 1950, train 18 of the ND system was put back in service and at 2108, OPS secured ND train 1A. This event is assigned a cause design deficiency because inadequate system venting in the horizontal piping between valves 1NS-18 and 1NI-1848, SI contairment surp 8 train isolation, allowed air to be trapped in the piping and forced the air to the suction of ND purp 18 causing the purp to beccme air bound *

. .RHR4 North Anna 1 06/14/82 Mode 5 on 6/14/82, only one of the coolant loops listed in T.S. 3.4.1.3 was operabl'e due to the failure of. the Residual Heat Removal Subsystem 8 Plllp (1-RH-P-18).

RHR4 North Anna 2 08/02/82 With the reactor coolant system drained to mid-loop, one residual heat removal purp was operating.

When flow frcm the operating residual heat removal purp decreased, approx. 200 gallons of water was added to the reactor coolant system to restore flow to normal. Since suction to the operating residual heat removal purp was maintained, decay heat removal capability was not lost. The water level dropped below mid*loop because of a seal leak on one residual heat removal purp ccmbined with inaccurate reactor coolant system water level indication.

RHR4 North Anna 2 08/16/82 Mode 5 The 1A Residual Heat Removal (RHR) purp was removed frcm service thereby leaving operable only one loop for decay heat removal since the 18 RHR pulp remained available to ensure decay heat removal.

RHR4 Rancho Seco 05/05/82 Mode 5 (Sheet 1 of 11) The A Decay Heat Puip inboard bearing was found to be leaking oil. Since the unit was in cold shutdown, the only consequence was the changing over to the 8 Decay Heat purp.

  • RHR4 San Onofre 08/31/87 Mode 5 (from LER Search): On 8/31/87, at approx. 1900, with Unit 2 in Mode 5 and the reactor coolant system (RCS) at approx. 350 psia and 127 degrees F, failure of alloy steel packing gland follower studs during manual operation of motor operated shutdown cooling system (SOCS) suction isolation valve 2HV-9378 resulted in leakage estimated at 100 gpm through the packing gland. Operation of the SOCS continued via a redundant flow path. RCS inventory was maintained by isolating letdown flow and using charging f)U1')S as depressurization and venting of the RCS proceeded. Containment closure was pr~tly restored and there was no effluent release from containment above regulatory limits. At 1100 on Sept. 1, a tell'f)Orary repair was c~leted which reduced the leak rate to approx. 1/4 gpm, effectively terminating the event. The cause of stud failure has been attributed to (1) packing leakage resulting in wastage clue to boric acid corrosion, (2) decrease in lubricating characteristics and hardening of packing, and (3) the initial thrust required to open the valve. Corrective actions include reduction of the maxinun thrust necessary to open the valve by installation of a modified packing gland assenbly less susceptible to leakage and hardening of packing, and replacement of packing gland studs with corrosion resistent material. The health and safety of plant personnel and the public were not affected by event.

RHR4 Turkey Point 3 10/23/85 Mode 5 (Sheet 1 of 2) At 0915 on 10/23/85, the 3A Residual Heat Removal (RHR) ~ was declared out of service COOS) when it did not meet the seal leakoff acceptance criteria during an operability test. At this time, the B emergency diesel generator (EOG) was OOS for maintenance. This placed the unit in a condition where upon loss of off-site power, no RHR loop would be available for core cooling for approx. 18 hrs. Plant management decided since the 3A RHR pulp could still operate and~ water to leave it lined up to the RHR system until the B EOG was returned to service. This would allow for core cooling in the event that off-sit~ power was lost. TS 3.4.1.E requires two coolant loops be operable and one coolant loop in operation whenever the Reactor Coolant System.(RCS) temp. is less than 350 deg Fahrenheit. The 3A RHR pulp being OOS exceeded the requirements of this TS. During *this event, Unit 3 was in cold shutdown with the 38 RHR pulp providing core cooling. The A EOG was *operable and the 3A RHR pulp was lined up to the RHR system to allow for core cooling in the event of a loss of off-site power until the B EOG was placed back in service.

This resulted in a loss of power to the controllers for both decay heat removal CDHR) cooler outlet valves CV-1428 and CV-1429. Upon loss of power to their controllers the valves went to the closed position, which was inconsistent with their design failure mode of open-Closure of both these valves resulted in the inoperability of*both trains of OHR, due to unavailability of a flow path through the OHR coolers. The event was terminated approx. 20 minutes later when control room operators questioned the I&C technicians about their work, and the technicians reinserted the fuse. During the event, the reactor coolant temperatures increased approx. 18F to a final ten.,erature of approx. 87F. No change in reactor bldg radiological conditions, source*renge counts or reactor coolant level was noted. Investigations after the event revealed that the cooler outlet valves*

electric pneumatic positioner output lines had been reversed causing both valves to fail closed on loss of controller power. The reversed output lines were properly reconnected and both valves were verified to open on loss of power.

(from NUREG-1410) Refueling had been con;ileted and the reactor head re-installed. The reactor coolant system water level was et mid-loop because the reactor coolant~ seal areas and the steam generator manways were open. A technician error caused a loss of power to both decay heat flow control valve controllers, causing the valves to close. Decay heat removal was lost for 23 minutes and reactor coolant temp. increased from 69 deg F to 87 deg F. By design, in order to prevent the unnecessary loss of core cooling capability, the decay heat removal flow control valves fail open upon loss of either control power or control air. Investigation revealed that the valves failed close because the air tubing from the valves* electric-pneunatic positioner had been reversed during installation. The industry was informed of this event in INPO Significant Event R~port CSER) 26-89.

RHRS Arkansas Nuclear 1 12/19/88 zero power 12 min (from LER Search): On 12/19/88 the decay heat removal (OHR) system inboard suction valve (CV-1050) closed resulting in a loss of OHR system flow. Following indication that the OHR suction valve was closing, the plant operator followed the appropriate procedures to secure the operating OHR~-

Actions were then taken which returned the DHR system to operation in approx. 12 minutes. At the time of the event, a contract electrician was performing equipment inspections in the room which contains a panel housing the control relays for CV-1050_ This individual inadvertently jarred the panel housing the control relays for CV-1050 at approx. the time of this event. The cause of this event has been determined to be inadvertent opening of the normally closed permissive contacts of a control relay for cv-1050. As determined during the investigation of this event, the permissive contacts of this relay are sensitive to mechanical shock. As a result of this event, a caution label has been placed at this control panel to caution against mechanical agitation of the panel. A plant modification will be implemented to replace this relay with a model less sensitive to mechanical shock. Additionally, other relays of this type will be reviewed for possible safety or operational problems due to susceptibility of these relays to mechanical shock.

RHR5 CoMeCticut Yankee 03/10/88 Mode 5 1 hr 22 min (from LER Search): On 3/10/88 at 1659 while performing a plant heatup from Mode 5 (RCS pressure= 309 psig, RCS tenp = 108 F) in preparation for a reactor coolant system (RCS) hydrostatic pressure test, a control operator coapleting an operating procedure checklist discovered that the residual heat removal (RHR) system had,been shutdown for gr~ater. than one hour (1 hr, 22 minutes) resulting in a violation of the plant Tech Spec. Following the discovery of this event, a review of the operations log reveafed I

that a similar violation occurred on 3/5/88, during a plant heatup when the operating RHR purp was *.1 shutdown for 1 hr, 2 minutes while still in Mode 5. At the time of the discovery, the plant had already entered Mode 4 where operation of the RHR system is not required.* Therefore, no iamediate corrective action to place the RHR system back in service was necessary. These events are the result of a failure to observe a specific precaution in the plant operating procedure for plant heatup. All licensed operators have been made aware of the violation and changes have been made to the appropriate operating procedures to prevent recurrence. This event is being reported under 10 CFR 50.73(A)C2)CI)(B) since it involved a condition prohibited by the plant's Tech Spec.

RHR5 Cook 2 12/09/82 Mode 6 The west RHR was in service supplying core cooling at 3000 gpm. A reactor coolant high level alarm was received and investigation of equipment showed that the west RHR pulp breaker had tripped.

RHR5 Crystal River 3 07/16/80 Mode 5 21 min (from NSAC52, p. A-12): Gross packing Leak on makeup puip discharge cross connect valve necessitated securing only operable makeup puip, which in turn necessitated securing RCPs due to loss of seal injection. Since the RHRS was not operating, decay heat removal was lost for 21 minutes during interim valve repair. The RHRS was then restored to operation to conduct final repairs. During those repairs, an iq>roper valve lineup on the RHRS heat exchangers caused a rapid cooldown of the RCS and loss of pressurizer level. When recovery was atteq>ted by depressurizing the RCS, and providing RHRS suction from the 811ST, injection flow could not be established due to reverse seating of RIIST check valves from RCS pressure. Inventory loss due to shrinkage caused pressurizer level to remain offscale for approx.

45 minutes.

A-28): Final stages of plant cooldown, RHRS initiated and RCPs secured at 270 F and 250 psis; plant then cooled and depressurized over next 15 hrs to 106 F, 50 psig. During depressurization, the injection of auxiliary spray and coapensating coolant letdown created a slow pressurizer outsurge of greater than 360 F water into the 'A' hotleg. Further depressurization flashed the hot water in the 1A' hot leg. Pressurizer level increased from about 8211 to 18011 (equating to a void of approx. 300 ft3). The A loop hot leg RTD read approx. 300 F, which was above the 50 psig saturation teaperature.

The puip was restarted after cause of low indication was determined.

(from AEOO): 8-minute loss of OHR flow. The operating OHR punp was secured by a control room operator. (An I&C mechanic took a DHR flow meter out of service to perform surveillance testing.

Control room personnel were unaware of this. Upon seeing that the OHR system flow had dropped offscale, a control room operator stopped the punp.)

RHRS Davis Besse 1 04/18/81 Mode 5 1 min (2 min in AEOO-C)

(from NSAC52, p. A-21): As a result of a small fire in a 345 kV bus, a rapid bus isolation was performed. A 13.8 kV bus was not transferred in sufficient time to prevent a loss of essential 4160 V power to the operating RHRS punp. The emergency diesel started and flow was restored in approx. one minute.

(from AEOD): 2-minute loss of OHR flow. In response to 0 two burning potential devices" on a bus, the bus was isolated. An error was made in the sequence of transferring power and isolating the bus.

Power was lost to the operating OHR pc.11p.

RHR5 Farley 1 03/07/83 Mode 6 The A Train RHR system was declared inoperable when the 1A RHR punp was inadvertently secured.

RHR5 Farley 1 11/07/86 Mode 5 A Residual Heat Removal (RHR) loop suction pressure relief valve opened to reduce Reactor Coolant System (RCS) pressure. On 11/7/86, the RCS (in the solid condition) pressure was being increased to 400 psis prior to starting A Reactor Coolant Puq:, (RCP). The operator increased pressure too rapidly and was unable to stop the increase prior to the 18 RHR loop suction pressure relief valve opening.

The opening of the relief valve controlled and reduced the RCS pressure. On 11/15/86, the RCS was being maintained in the solid condition at approximately 400 psis with the 18 and 1C RCPS running.

Depending on plant conditions, RCS pressure while solid can either increase or decrease when starting RCP. The operating crew had anticipated a pressure decrease; however, pressure increased when the 1A RCP was started. The operator tried to limit the pressure increase but the 1A RHR loop suction A-38

RHRS Mill~tone 3 06/08/87 Mode 5 33 min (from LER Search): On June 8, 1987 at 1345 hrs and 0% power, *an inadvertent IIIOde change from mode 5 *

(cold shutdown) to Mode 4 (hot shutdown) occurred. The incident occurred during an investigation by plant personnel to determine why the train B residual heat removal system suction isolation (from the reactor coolant system) valve did not stroke during the previous plant cool-down. The root cause of the inadvertent mode change was operator error. The reactor operator failed to monitor reactor coolant system temperature for a period of 33 minutes and did not identify the possibility of a mode change due to the isolation of the heat sink for the reactor coolant system. The entry into Mode 4 occurred before the appropriate plant technical specifications for the mode change were satisfied. After the incident was identified, the inmecliate operator action was to return the plant to Mode 5 (cold shutdown) below the maxi111111 temperature requirements. As corrective action, operators have been briefed of the incident and have been reminded of the iq>ertance of 1110nitoring plant responses during evolutions. The operator directly involved in the incident has been relieved of license duties until demonstrated deficiencies in performance can be resolved by plant management.

RHRS North Anna 1 06/01/80 Mode 5 34 min (from NSAC52, p. A-12 and p. A-24): To check the size of the packing gland on an RHRS valve, the packing gland nut was loosened. The mechanic was not aware that RCS pressure was being increased. The packing came loose, dislodging the packing nut, and leaking primary water into contair,nent. To reduce RHRS pressure, the operating RHRS punp was secured for 34 minutes and the RCS pressure reduced while the packing nut was teq,orarily installed. One RHRS ~ was then operated for 54 minutes.

RHR5 Oconee 1 06/29/81 Mode 5 (from NSAC52, p. A-29): Final stages of plant cooldown: RHRS initiated and last RCP secured at 225 F, 310 psig. Pressurizer level was then reduced from 250 to 100 inches to fulfill an omitted requirement (procedure required lowering pressurizer level to 10011 before securing RCPs). This RCS letdown moved 4,000-5,000 gallons of stagnant 423 F water from the pressurizer to the "Au hotleg. The RCS pressure was then lowered. After about 25 hrs of pressurizer cooldown, pressure was lowered below saturation pressure for the hottest water in the "A" loop (120 psig, 350 F). A steam bubble of approx. 300 cu.

ft. was fonned in the top of the "A" loop "J" leg. A rapid pressurizer insurge occurred as the 300 cu.

ft void was fonned.

RHR5 OConee 3 04/06/87 Mode 5 (from LER Search): on April 6, 1987 at approx. 1500 hrs the reactor coolant (RC) system on Unit 3 was cooled to the extent that technical specification limits in Table 3.1-2 were exceeded. Unit 3 was at cold shutdown and in preparation fo~ startup following a refueling outage. The inadvertent cooldown was due to reactor coolant leaking through the outlet valve (3LP-12) of 3A low pressure injection cooler while. the shell side of the cooler was being flushed with low pressure service water. The leakage through 3LP*12 and subsequent cooldown occurred when 3LP-11 was opened in the process of performing an equipment restoration procedure. The root cause of the event was that the procedure for performing.maintenance on 3Lr-12 did not provide adequate guidance to direct personnel on how to adjust the closing limit switch on valve operators which are controlled by a limit switch on the closing stroke. Imnediate corrective actions were taken to isolate the low pressure injection cooler and secure the RC flow by closing valve 3LP-9 upstream of the cooler. The leaking valve 3LP-12 was then manually closed. Linear elastic fracture mechanics analysis of the most limiting reactor vessel beltline metal indicated that this event had no effect on the integrity of the pressure vessel.

RHR5 Palisades 07/18/81 Mode 5 1 hr 30 min (from NSAC52, p. A-19): A shutdown cooling heat exchanger outlet valve failed closed, causing loss of RHRS flow. Closure of this air-operated valve isolated flow from both RHRS heat exchangers to the RCS.

Primary coolant temperature increased from approx. 123 F to 197 F.

RHR5 Rancho Seco 10/03/86 Mode 5 13 min (from CR5015): Power level - OX.

The plant was without the use of the normal DHS for approx. 13 minutes. Due to the *extended period that the plant has been s~ut down, there was a small, but detectable increase of reactor coolant temperature.

Steps were taken inmediately to restore a DHS train to service in accordance with the. intent of Tech Spec 3.1.1.5. This event is reportable according to 10 CFR Part 50.73(a)(2)(1V & V). The cause of the incidents was l&C technicians troubleshooting abnormal indication on panel tl2SFB for DHS ue 11 puip room (east) Sl.l11) stack lights (1811 level indication) on panel H2SFB. The iamediate cause of the spurious actuation was an electric arc from the Sl.l11) level stack light when 11 rolling-over 11 the respective bulb.

RHRS Robinson 06/11/87 zero power (from LER search): On June 11, 1987, during zero power physics testing following a refueling outage, a valve packing failure resulted in primary system leakage of approx. 23 gallons per minute. An unusual event was declared. Initial indications were that the leak was from the #1 seal of 11 C11 reactor coolant pulp. Based on an erratic standpipe level and high temperature in the seal leakoff Line, the pulp was stopped. Later, similar indicatio'ns were noted for the "B" reactor coolant puip and it too was stopped. Subsequent investigation of the leakage determined the source of the leak to be residual heat removal valve RHR-750 inside contairment, based on high temperature in its leakoff lines. Conmon piping is shared by this line and the~ seal leakoff lines. The packing was replaced, the unusual event terminated, and plant startup reinitiated. The need for additional long-term corrective action is being evaluated.

RHRS Salem 2 06/12/81 Mode 4 1 hr 5 min (from NSAC52, p. A-13): During plant cooldown, the RHRS suction relief valve lifted.

RHR5 Salem 2 05/24/83 Mode 5 (from Seabrook Sheet 5 of 11): No. 21 Residual Heat Removal (RHR) P<Jll1' and No. 21 Fuel Handling Bldg exhaust fan were observed to trip. Deenergization of No. 21 RHR puip resulted in no RHR loop being in operation and Action Statement 3.4.1.4B was entered. The purrp was inmediately restarted and flow restored. No reduction in Reactor Coolant System Boron concentration occurred ~ith the RHR loop inoperable.

RHRS San Onofre 2 03/14/82 Mode 6 90 min (Sheet 1 of 5) Shutdown cooling was lost due to nitrogen intrusion as a result of backflushing a filter in the purification system. Shutdown cooling flow was lost for 90 minutes. Public safety was not endangered because no irradiated fuel was in the core.

RHR5 St.mmer 11/06/84 7 min (from AEOD): A procedural error in testing relays on the bus supplying the OHR pulp caused the bus to strip. The associated diesel was out for maintenance (7 min. loss).

RHR5 Surry 1 03/18/89 zero power 11 hr 28 min (from LER Search): On 3/18/89, at 0912 hrs, it was discovered that the manual RHR and c ~ t cooling (CC) valves to the "A" RHR heat exchanger (HX) were open, but the manual RHR outlet valve of the "B" HX was closed. In addition, the CC isolation trip valve TC-CC-109A was closed thus prohibiting CC flow through the "A" RHR HX. Consequently, with no CC flow through the "A" HX and no RHR flow through the 11 B11 HX, there was no RCS cooling loop in operation. This condition had existed since 2144 hrs, March 17, 1989 and is contrary to Tech Spec 3.1.A.1.D.2. The CC containnent isolation trip valve for the "A" RHR HX was reopened, restoring cc flow to the HX, terminating the loss of RHR cooling and the RCS heat up. Following this discovery, a root cause analysis was performed by the personnel involved. The cause of the event was operator error. The operators were under the incorrect ass~tion that the "B" RHR HX outlet manual isolation valve was in the open position. In addition, the CC trip valves were manipulated without use of a procedure. Other contributing factors were also identified. Personnel associated with the event were disciplined.

RHR5 Surry 2 02/19/86 Mode 5 10 min (from CR5015): Power level - 0%. On 2-19-86 with Unit 2 at cold shutdown, operators were performing a test of the component cooling (CC) check valves in the residual heat removal (RHR) system. During this test, an operator made an incorrect valve lineup which resulted in the isolation of CC flow to the 'A' RHR heat exchanger and RHR flow to the *s* RHR heat exchanger for approx. 10 minutes. During this period, RCS temperature and pressure were closely monitored and no abnormal increases were noted. The root cause of this event was hlJllan error in that the operator failed to follow the steps in the written procedure which would have ensured the proper valve lineup. A contributing factor was poor CCllllUl'lication between the control room operator and the operator performing the valve lineup. The operators involved in this event prepared a report describing the circunstances which led to this error and it will be placed in the operator's required reading manual. This event will also be evaluated by the h1.1Dan performance evaluation coordinator.

RHR6 Gil'V18 05/14/84 Mode 4 On 5/14/84, while cooling down the Reactor Coolant System (RCS) to the cold shutdown condition for sludge lancing and crevice cleaning, MOV-700 (RCS Loop A Residual Heat Removal Suction Valve) failed to stroke to the open position when actuated from the Control Room. Following manual unseating of the valve, maintenance persomel performed an inspection of the valve exterior. This inspection revealed that the packing gland flange had shifted out of the vertical position to a point where the flange was in contact with the valve stem. This could have caused a mechanical binding in the stem and torque-out of the valve operator. The valve was then stroked*manually to verify no mechanical binding. The valve was then stroked twice electrically. The valve functioned satisfactorily with proper motor current readings and acceptable opening and closing times indicating no mechanical binding. A visual inspection of the valve stem and stem threads verified adequate cleanliness and lubrication. Torque switch settings were verified withi_n the manufacturers design settings. On 5/22/84 when the RCS was heating up to hot shutdown, the valve was again stroked to verify proper operation. Again, the valve functioned properly with proper motor current readings and acceptable opening and closing times.

Operation of this valve will continue to be monitored during the next cooldown of the RCS.

RHR6 oconee 2 09/18/81 Mode 1 (from NSAC52, p. A-27): Primary to secondary leakage was detected indicating a OTSG tube leak. The i,iit was shut down, cooled down and depressurization initiated to reduce the leak rate. When plant conditions permitted, RHRS operation was attelll)ted.

Unit 3 was in hot shutdown after coming off-line for maintenance. The valve is required to open in order to indicate the decay heat removal cooling mode.

(from CR5015): Power level - OX. On 10*15-85 at 0955 hrs, an unsuccessful atteopt to open an electric motor operated valve was made from the Unit 3 control room. Unit 3 was in hot shutdown after coming off-line for maintenance. The valve is required to open in order to initiate the decay heat removal cooling mode. The cause of the incident was the torque switch settings on the valve. Rotork nuclear actuator settings were not set high enough to operate the valve under system pressure. The EMO valve torque switch settings were not specified in the design modification package used to replace the valve actuator with a new Rotork nuclear actuator. The corrective action was to open the valve from the valve actuator contacts at the motor control center, bypassing the valve actuator's torque switch limit control circuit. The analysis supporting the licensing basis for Oconee does not require the ill'lllediate opening of this valve. The failure to ill'lllediately open this valve only results in a delay in the initiation of'decay heat removal cooling mode.

RHR6 Turkey Point 4 05/23/89 Mode 4 (from LER Search): On 5/23/89, at 1820 EST, with Unit 4 in Mode 4 and the reactor coolant t~rture below 350 degrees, residual heat removal (RHR) motor operated valve MOV-4-751, RHR normal suction isolation valve, failed to open with the control switch. This valve was to be opened from the alternate shutdown panel to place RHR in service for its normal heat removal function as part of an operability check of the panel. When this valve failed to open, the reactor continued to be cooled by removing heat through the steam generators. The valve was manually moved from its seat. The valve subsequently stroked smoothly with the control switch. The root cause of this event is hydraulic locking of the valve. To prevent recurrence of this problem, the valve has been modified with an equalizing line which will assure that the pressure in the bonnet of the valve is at an equal or lower pressure than the high pressure side of the valve. Additionally, MOV-4-750, the RHR valve ill'lllediately upstream cif valve MOV-4-751, has been modified. The corresponding Unit 3 valves will also be modified to assure that these valves do not experience a hydraulic locking event. The Unit 3 valves, MOV-3-750 and MOV-3-751, will be modified prior to the Unit's return to power.

PHASE 2 CATEGORY 4KV PLANT NAME Arkansas Nuclear 1 LER DATA BASE* 4KV EVENT DATE INITIAL PLANT CONDITION 12/05/89 CSO 08/27/93 RECOVERY TIME (from LER Search): On 12/5/89 at 0645 and 12/6/89 at 2205, while the plant was shutdown in a maintenance outage, automatic actuations of an emergency diesel generator (EOG) occurred as a result of loss of power to a 480 volt CV) engineered safeguards (ES) bus. Prior to both events, the BS and 86 480V ES busses were crossconnected to facilitate maintenance activities. The Dec. 5 event occurred as a result of a persOMel error which occurred while operators were attenpting to 11splitout 11 the BS and 86 busses and return the ES power distribution system lineup to normal. The error resulted in a loss of power to Bus 86 which caused the offsite feeder breaker for 4.16 kilovolt bus A4 to open and initiated a start of the 1 8 1 EOG which tied on to the A4 bus. The Dec. 6 event was also the result of a personnel error which caused a loss of power to 480V ES Bus BS. This condition caused the offsite feeder breaker for A3 to trip and the 'A' EOG to start. The momentary loss of power to A3 caused the operating decay heat removal (OHR) pull) to trip. OHR flow was lost for approx. 9 minutes and resulted in a reactor coolant system tenp. increase of 17 degrees. Management briefings were conducted for the operating crews prior to restart from the outage covering the lessons learned from these events.

4KV Arkansas Nuclear 2 11/14/89 Shutdown min (from LER Search): On 11/14/89, maintenance personnel initiated a post maintenance test, using instructions in a maintenance job order, to silll.llate an undervoltage on a 480 Vac engineered safety features (ESF) motor control center (285) by placing a jurper across the 285 *unc1ervoltage relay contacts. Iamediately following this step, the normal offsite power feeder breaker to the associated 4160 Vac ESF bus C2A3> unexpectedly opened resulting in the loss of power to 2A3. The electrical bus deenergized as designed. The test steps provided in the job order did not identify that 2A3 would deenergize *as part. of the test. When 2A3 was deenergized, a tow pressure safety injection CLPSI) P'-fl'>,

which was supplying flow for decay heat removal and a service water pull) deenergized. A standby LPSI P'-f1'> powered from the redundant 4160 Vac ESF electrical bus was started in approximately one minute and flow reestablished. Since* the plant had been shutdown for several days prior to this event, the reactor decay heat levels were low and the momentary interruption of flow did not result in any significant reactor coolant system t~rature or pressure increases. The test was reevaluated and satisfactorily completed. The root cause of this event was determined to be inadequate post maintenance test controls.

The loss of power caused an isolation of the bus with no back-up power available due to diesel generator 1A being out of service. The blackout resulted in a loss of power to residual heat removal pulp 1A, fuel pool cooling pull) 1A, and component cooling P'-f1'> 1A2. Subsequently, due to a charging flow control valve failing open, NC system pressure increased and caused a pressurizer PORV to lift 7 times. The 6900V switchgear 1TC is separated into two sides which are comected by normally open tie breaker 'iTc~i. The tie breaker was closed because 1T2A was out of service. The tie breaker tripped open on overcurrent because a ground overcurrent relay was installed in the time delay overcurrent relay location. The ground overcurrent relay was not designed for the inrush current caused by starting the NC pulp. The A-46

The 11A11 DH train was operating and the reactor coolant system was filled and intact with an operable steam generator. At 0237 on Aug. 28, 1989, the 11A11 480 volt engineered safeguards (ES) stepdown transformer faulted causing DH closed cycle cooling~ 11A11 (DCP-1A) to de-energize. Loss of DCP-1A l'"emoved the cooling for DH tl'"ain "A", !"endel'"ing this tl'"ain inoperable. At 0256, DH tl'"ain 11 811 and its suppol'"t systems wel'"e stal'"ted. The 11A11 and 11 8 11 480 volt ES buses wel'"e then Cl'"oss-tied to provide AC powel'" to the "A11 bus.

The loss of DH cooling caused an incl'"ease in RCS terl1)E!l'"atul'"e and an inadvel'"tent entry into Mode 4 (hot shutdown). The tl'"ansfonnel'" has been replaced.

4KV Millstone 2 12/09/81 Mode 5 30-60 min (from NSAC52, p. A-22): With the RCS depressurized and drained to the hot leg midpoint, the running RHRS pump tripped due to 345 kV switchyard breaker testing. Core heatup from 90 F to over 208 F occurred over a period of about 30-60 minutes. When the RHRS pump was restarted, previously colder, stagnant RHRS t~ratures increased from 90 F to 208 Fin about 2 minutes. The second RHRS pump was started, and the hot coolant in the core area and the colder coolant in the RCS and RHRS continued to equalize, resulting in an RHRS t~rature drop to 130 Fin about 7 minutes.

4KV North Anna 03/23/89 Mode 5 10 sec (from LER Search): At 1053 hrs on 3/23/89, with Unit 1 in Mode 5 (cold shutdown), the 11 1H" emergency bus was inadvertently de-energized for approx. 10 seconds during the performance of 1-PT-82.3A, 1H diesel generator test (simulated loss of offsite power in conjunction with an ESF actuation signal).

This is considered an inadvertent engineered safeguards feature CESF) actuation and is reportable pursuant to 10 CFR 50.73CA)C2)CIV). A four hour report was made in accordance with 10 CFR 50.72(A)(2)(I1). Immediate corrective actions included automatic start of the 11 19 11 component cooling water pump, the manual start of the 11 19 11 residual heat removal pump, and verification that de-energized equipment was either returned to service or was reset. Further corrective actions include investigating and correcting the circuit design of the trip block relay. In addition, appropriate emergency di~el generator periodic tests will be revised to prevent testing when in an abnormal electrical configuration. This event posed no significant safety iq,lications because the 111H" emergency diesel generator CEDG) started as designed and reloaded the 0 1H11 emergency* bus in less than 10 seconds. In addition, the 11 1J" EOG was operable and was capable of providing power to required .

4KV North Anna 1 04/16/89 Mode 5 (from LER Search): On April 16, 1989 at 1115 hrs, with both units in Mode 5 (cold shutdown) the normal power supply to 1H and 2J 4160V emergency bus was lost when a lifted wire was inadvertently grounded during removal for switchyard modifications required for design change package CDCP) 88-05. The 1H and 2J emergency diesel generators automatically started on the loss of power and re-energized their associated emergency bus. This event is an engineered safety feature CESF) actuation and reportable pursuant to 10 CFR 50.73(A)(2)(IV). A four hour report was made pursuant to 10 CFR 50.72(B)C2)(II).

In conjunction with the loss of power the Unit 1 residual heat removal CRHR) pump, 1-RH-P-1A, tripped on undervoltage and is reportable pursuant to 10 CFR 50.73(A)C2)(V)(B). Abnormal procedure 10 was initiated and 1H and 2J emergency diesel generators (EOG) were verified in operation and supplying their respective bus. Abnormal procedure CAP) 11.2 was also initiated and residual heat removal capability subsequently restored on Unit 1 by starting "8 11 RHR pump. No significant safety consequences occurred due to this event, since the redundant emergency bus remained available to supply power to required plant equipment. Also, the 1H and 2J *EDGs auto started and re-energized the emergency busses as designed.

1 was scheduled for routine preventive maintenance. A loss of the 4A bus power, attendant diesel generator start, and decay heat system (DHS) isolation occurred during the transfer of the source transformer at 2:18 PM on Dec. 8, 1986. An automatic feature of the nuclear service bus is a five-second limit on having two sources feeding the bus. The control roan operator closed startup transformer No. 2 supply breaker 4A10 onto the 4A bus. When the operator opened the supply breaker (4A01) from startup transformer No. 1, breaker 4A10 from startup transformer No. 2 had just coq>leted_

the automatic five-second run-out and had tripped open. These events left the 4A bus without either the normal or alternate supply. An attendant result was that when power was restored, DHS suction valve HV-20001 closed as would be expected in this situation causing the DHS isolation. The power supplies to both HV-20001 and HV-20002 are currently racked out. The purpose for the DHS system valve interlocks is to prevent over-pressuring the DHS piping with RCS pressure. Since the RCS is "open to atmosphere" there is no need for the interlocks to protect the DHS piping from over-pressure.

4KV Three Mile Island 1 01/09/87 Refueling shutdown (from LER Search): TMI-1 was in refueling shutdown mode wHh 11B" decay heat removal system in operation. Appendix R modification work required that a wire be lifted in the circuit for the 1E 4160V current transformer. Unbeknownst to the electrician, he lifted and opened one phase on the 1E bus current transformer. With this phase open, the imbalance caused an apparent neutral current and operation of the neutral overcurrent relay. This protective feature tripped and locked out the feeder breakers to the 1E bus. The resulting undervoltage condition on the 1E bus caused the auto start of .

the B emergency diesel generator. The root cause of the event was inadequate instruction to the electrician perfQrming the work at an energized bus. The automatic start of the emergency diesel generator is reportable under 10 CFR 50.73CA)(2)CIV). There was no safety significance to the auto start of the emergency diesel generator.* Although the operating decay heat removal system was momentarily shutdown due to the de-energized 1E 4160V bus, there was no safety significance since the backup system was available. Corrective action taken was to reconnect the wire, reset the lockout, and re-energize the bus. Work was stopped and not restarted until the work instructions were assessed and an appropriate sequence developed.

4KV Wolf Creek 10/16/87 17 min (from NUREG*1410): The unit was in a refueling outage and the refueling cavity was flooded with 60 fuel assent>lies in the reactor. One emergency diesel generator had been removed from service and one safety bus had been removed from service for cleaning. An electrician came in contact with a lead energized from the other safety bus. The energized bus deenergized. The emergency diesel generator started and loaded. The emergency diesel generator output breaker was tripped to remove the electrician who came in contact with the energized lead. After the electrician was removed, the emergency diesel generator output breaker would not close. The anti-pll11) circuit of the output breaker prevented reclosure of the breaker once it had been opened after the diesel generator started on unclervoltage. Decay heat removal capability was lost for 17 minutes. The industry was informed of this event in INPO Significant Event Notification (SEN) 22.

In addition, for approx. 2 minutes, the decay heat removal capability was lost when the closure of the loop 4 RHR suction valve (MOV-8702) resulted in both RHR trains being isolated from the RCS. The RHR suction valve was subsequently opened and RHR flow established within 2 minutes. All other affected equipment and systems were returned to their normal standby conditions. Investigation has shown that the cause of this event was misadjustment of the aux switches on the bus G feeder breakers (HG 13 and 14). The aux switches were adjusted to a new tolerance and the breakers were tested with satisfactory results. To prevent recurrence, procedure E-51.2, u4.16KV circuit breaker PM (preventative maintenance)," is being revised to identify the specific aux switch adjustment required for the bus f~er ~reakers.

MOV-1701 being closed resulted in a t~rary loss of the RHR system. Therefore, this event is reportable pursuant to 10 CFR 50.73CA)C2)CVII)CB). At 1515 hrs on April 22, 1987, during the performance of a periodic test, the 1-III inverter failed, resulting in a loss of power to VG 1-III.

Vital bus 1-III supplies power to an auxiliary relay for pressure channel P-1403 which provides the logic to close MOV-1701 on high RCS pressure. IJhen this auxiliary relay was de-energized an auto closure signal was sent to MOV-1701, thereby closing MOV-1701. Power was quickly restored to VB 1-III, MOV-1701 was reopened and RHR flow was restored. The cause of the inverter failure was determined to be a blown fuse. To prevent recurrence of this type of event, North Anna is actively pursuing a technical specification change to eliminate this RHR interlock.

VITAL North Anna 2 04/29/83 Mode 6 < 1 min (fran Seabrook Sheet 5 of 20): One of two source range channels (N-31) and the Contairment Particulate and Gaseous Radiation monitors (MR-259 & 26) were deenergized. The vital bus was pranptly reenergized and the cleenergized equipment pranptly restored.

VITAL Palo Verde 2 01/30/86 Mode 5 Cfran CR5015): Power level - OX. At 1924 MST on 1-30-86, Palo Verde 2 was in Mode 5 when an unauthorized modification on a vital power inverter* caused*a failur~ of the train 'A', class 1E, I&c power system, which resulted in a control room essential filtration actuation signal *and a t~rary loss of train 'A' shutdown cooling. The cause of the failure was attributed to inadequate control of a modification consisting of a resistor jU!pered around a capacitor in the circuit. The modification caused an excessively high current on an inverter circuit board, and resulted in 3 blown inverter fuses. The inverter loss caused a loss of power to a radiation monitoring unit, which in turn caused the CREFAS and the t~rary termination of train 'A' soc. As corrective action, all inverters were inspected for additional unauthorized modifications, the blown fuses were replaced, and inverter specs were checked. Additionally, work control procedures will be revised to esq:ihasize the i~rtance of removing all t~rary modifications prior to putting an electrical system back in service.

VITAL Rancho Seco 06/24/82 Modes 4 and 5 (from Seabrook Sheet 1 of 11): During a preventive maintenance procedure on the B inverter, there was a momentary loss of power to the B bus. This in turn caused a short duration loss of DHRS. The core t~rature remained unaffected by this loss of flow and the A system was available on standby.

(from AEOO): Sillllltaneous test and maintenance caused failure of bus, closure of the suction/isolation valve, and loss of DHR flow. (Duration of event unknown)

VITAL Rancho Seco 11/15/86 Mode 5 (from Seabrook Sheet 19 of 20) The plant was in cold shutdown, removing decay heat via the Decay Heat Removal System (OHS); Train A, on Nov. 15, 1986. At 1:00 PM, in preparation for a fuse replacement activity in the S1A Bus inverter, S1A bus power was momentarily interrupted, DHS overpressure distables tripped, HV-20001 closed which tripped DHS AP~ as designed. Steps were taken inmediately to restore a DHS train to service in accordance with T.S. 3.1.1.5.

The plant was in cold shutdown, removing decay heat via the decay heat removal system (OHS) train "A" on 11*15-86. At 1:00 PM, in preparation for a fuse replacement activity in the S1A bus inverter, S1A bus power was momentarily interrupted, DHS over-pressure bistables tripped, HV-20001 closed which tripped OHS "A"~ as designed. Steps were taken inmediately to restore a OHS train to service in accordance with Tech Spec 3.1.1.5. The basic cause of the inverter failure is that the original design did not allow for testability of the device through the use of a substitute power source. That design deficiency, identified as early as 1979 CNCR's-1258, Revision 2), was recognized by the current action plan for performance illl)rovement. There is a preventive maintenance procedure, EM 171A, "station inverter routine - static products inverters," that is scheduled to be performed once per year on the inverters, a 120VAC vital bus system illl)rovement was approved, but has not been illl)lemented yet.

VITAL Salem 2 05/14/83 Modes 4 and 5 inmediately (from Seabrook Sheet 5 of 20): On two separate occasions on May 14 and 15, 1983, a Residual Heat Removal system suction valve was observed to have closed, thus eliminating flow in the operating RHR loop. In each instance, the operating putp was stopped and Action Statement 3.4.1.48 was entered. No reduction in reactor coolant system boron concentration occurred with an RHR loop out of service. A loop was inmediately restored to service.

Cfr0111 AEOD): RHR suction valve closed during operation. (Duration of events unknown) The 05/14/83 event was triggered by a vital instrunent bus which was de-energized for maintenance *

  • VITAL Salem 2 11/28/83 Mode 5 (from Seabrook Sheet 8 of 20): During a maintenance shutdown, 2A vital instrunent bus was transferred to its alternate power supply to perform routine meter calibrations on 2A inverter. A voltage transient caused 2RH2 to shut resulting in a loss of RHR flow. The valve was inmediately reopened and RHR flow was re-established.

(from AEOD): Vital bus transfer caused voltage spike which resulted in closure of suction/isolation valve. (Duration of event unknown)

VITAL South Texas 1 02/12/89 Mode 5 (from LER Search): On 2/12/89, Unit 1 was in mode 5. At 0529 hrs a plant operator noticed evidence that inverter IV-1203, which supplies uninterruptable power to distribution panel DP-1203, was overheating. The operator inmediately transferred the distribution panel to its al terna.te source and secured the inverter. Since this was a dead bus transfer, it resulted in a momentary loss of power and subsequent actuation of the control room and fuel handling bldg HVAC systems to the emergency mode, tripping of residual.heat removal plJ1'l 18, and shifting of centrifugal charging putp 18 suction to the refueling water storage tank from the volune control tank. These systems were restored to normal operation after power was restored. The cause of this event was a short to ground on the secondary side of the inverter ferroresonant transformer. Corrective actions include replacement and failure analysis of the failed transformer.

VITAL Sllllller 11/12/83 Mode 5 5 min (from Seabrook Sheet 7 of 20) An Engineered Safety Feature (ESF) 120 VAC vital instrunentation panel, APN-5901, was transferred to alternate power to accarmodate modifications to its normal power source.

At 1604 hrs a power loss to 120V AC distribution panel APN-5901 de-energized solid state protection system (SSPS) chamel I and caused the instrument channel for RCS wide range pressure (PT-403) to initiate an auto-closure of the operable RHR train*s suction isolation valve XVG*8701A. Following determination that the power loss had been caused by personnel error during the performance of a plant modification, operations personnel restored power to APN-5901. XVG*8701A was opened and train 1 A1 of the RHR system returned to operable status at 1630 hrs (total time of RHR isolation was approx. 25 minutes). RCS temperature increased from 110 F to 130 F during the event. The loss of RHR met the conditions of an alert, and the proper notifications were made in accor:dance with the emergency plan.

Preparat1ons were made for draining the component cooling water CCC) shellside of the HX to allow replacement of a flange gasket. AT 1745 draining of the shell side of the HX was started. At 1802 the 1A CC puip tripped due to low level in the CC surge tank. The low level alarm on the main control board did not amunciate although the sequence of events recorder did indicate a low level. The draining was stopped, the surge tank refilled, and the isolation valves were *checked. At 1816 the 1A CC puip was restarted and the system was restored to normal. The cause was the CC inlet isolation valve leaking and contributing was the failure of the cc surge tank high/low level alarm to amunciate on the main control board. Additionally, the CC motor operated outlet valve on the 1B RHR HX was found 6 turns off its seat. The leaking valve has been repaired, the limits for a motor operated valve were adjusted, the main control board alarm was troubleshot and the synptoms could not be duplicated. Work is in progress to check the calibration and scaling on the CC surge tank instrunent loop.

CCW Byron 1 04/08/87 zero power 17 min (from LER Search): On 4/8/87, at approx. 1725, a contracted maintenance crew began work on the limitorque motor operator of the 11 1A11 residual heat removal (RH) heat exchanger conponent cooling water outlet isolation valve, 1CC9412A. This valve was a point of isolation for work on the RH heat exchanger, which required it to be drained of coqx,nent cooling water CCC). Shift operating personnel granted permission, with the understanding that if it became necessary for the crew to stroke the valve, they would obtain authorization. Maintenance crew stroked the valve in order to release torque on the motor gear set. It is unclear whether they actually received authorization or not. This allowed CC to back flow through 1CC9412A to the heat exchanger and out the drain. This caused the (CC) surge tank to reach the low level CC puip trip. The 11 1A" cc put;> tripped at 1726 on 4/8/87. The surge tank is conmon to both trains, consequently, both trains of c~ent cooling were inoperable. Leak was discovered and isolated. System was then re-filled, and the 11 1A11 cc JlU1'> re-started. Total time both trains were inoperable was 17 minutes. Cause of the event was a conm..nication breakdown between the maintenance crew and shift operating perso,nnel. Contracted maintenance personnel now work Wlder the same procedures as station personnel. Similar event: 455/86-001.

This resulted in various ESF reactor trip signals and loss of the residual heat removal pl.l11JS. Channel 3 and 4 circuits were being powered by an alternate source while the nonnal power source was out of service.

(from CR5015): Power level - OX. on 9/7/85 at 0720 hrs with Unit 1 in Mode 5 power was l.ost to the control room instrlllleflt bus distribution circuits for channel 3 and 4. This resulted in various ESF reactor trip signals and loss of the RHR PJl1)S. Channel 3 and 4 circuits were being powered by an alternate source while the normal power source was out of service. The circuit breaker for channel 3 tripped as a result of an inadequately terminated lead. A licensed operator investigating the power loss thought the channel 4 circuit breaker had tripped also. The operator then attenl)ted to reset the breakers by opening then closing the breaker. This resulted in the channel 4 breaker being momentarily de-energized. This caused various ESF reactor trip signals and the loss of RHR pl.l11JS (due to the refueling water storage tank level indication reading low from power loss). This placed the unit in a LCO per Tech Spec 3.4.1.3. The RHR system was made operable within 2 mins after loss. To prevent recurrence the operator has been counseled not to take imnediate actions where the situation does not require it.

ESFAS Davis Besse 1 04/19/80 Mode 6 2 hr 30 min (from NSAC52, p. A-3, p. A-15): A loss of two vital instrunent buses resulted in a safety features actuation (SFA) while in mode 6. Control power was also lost to the RHRS suction valves interlock,.

causing them to shut. The SFA caused the suction of decay heat ~ #2 to be transferred to the BIJST and then emergency suq:,. Water from the BWST was gravity fed to the emergency suq:, during valve stroking time (approx. 1*1/2 minutes). The RHRS ~ injected about 3,500 gallons of BIJST water into the RCS, resulting in a small amount flowing out of tygon tubing used for vessel level indication.

  • Approx. 1,500 ga.llons of RWST w~ter drained to the emergency *s~.
  • The RHRS purp then lost suction and became airbound. Extensive~ venting was conducted and RHRS flow was restored 2-~/2 hrs later. RCS tenl)erature increased from 90 F to 170 F.

(from AEOO): 2-1/2 hr loss of OHR. Vibration from construction work actuated a ground fault relay.

Due to an abnormal electrical lineup associated with outage activities, loss of power resulted in SFAS actuation. Control power to the OHR suction valves was lost, causing the suction valves to close. The SFAS actuation transferred the OHR puip suction to the BWST and then to the enpty suip. The~

ESFAS Davis Besse 1 06/14/80 Mode 6 2 min (from NSAC52, p. A*15): Maintenance induced voltage transient in containment pressure section of the Safety Features Actuation System (SFAS) caused an SFAS actuation. This caused RHRS ~ suction to switch from the RCS to the borated water storage tank, injecting.16,000 gallons of BIJST water into the refueling canal. Seven minutes later, a low BWST level actuation of SFAS shifted RHRS ~ suction to the empty emergency suq:>. The RHRS puip lost suction and was stopped causing a loss of decay heat flow.

An I&C mechanic was restoring containment pressure inputs to SFAS following an Integrated Leak Rate Test. Because of a procedural inadequacy, SFAS was actuated and the OHR~ was realigned to deliver BIJST water to the RCS and the refueling canal. When BWST level dropped to the low level limit, SFAS level 5 actuation took place closing the BIJST isolation valve causing a loss of suction to the OHR puip

The cause was determined to be drawing errors. At 1700 hrs during performanc;e of the same modification on SSPS cabinet XPN-7010, a similar RHR isolation occurred via the train 11811 RHR suction isolation valves XVG-8701 A & B (one valve in each R.HR train). The I&C technician was lifting *leads affected by the modification to prevent a repeat of the previously mentioned isolation when a defective fuse holder interrupted power to the train 11811 circuitry.

The procedure contains 1 step that executes 2 actions, reset and then block SI. This led to the spurious SI. The SI function test for units 1 and 2 will be'moclified to provide separate steps and signoffs to reset and block SI.

ESFAS/SI Surry 1 03/01/84 CSD Power level - 0%. on March 1, safety injection signals were initiated as a result of c011pleting 3 of 4 high contairvnent pressure signals and c~leting 2 of 3 high steam flow signals. At the time of the event, operators were performing MOP 26.9 (removal of vital bus sole transformer I-I) when vital bus and III were mistakenly cross corviected out of phase. This reuslted in a voltage transient on vital bus I and III, which caused spurious containment high pressure and high steam flow signals. The voltage transient in vital bus I and III is believed to have resulted in tripping 2 of 4 contairment high pressure relays. Since channel II was in trip prior to the voltage *transient, the 3 of 4 matrix for containment high pressure was COllpleted and safety injection was initiated. Also, the power transient resulted in resetting the high steam flow low tavg or low steam pressure safety injection circuitry. since high steam flow signals were also generated with voltage transient and both low header pressure low tavg were present, safety injection was actuated. The operator was re-instructed in the correct manner of removing the vital bus sola transformer. labels have been made for both unit's manual transfer switches. Fan S8B iris damper shall be run in the automatic mode.

On May 11, 1986 at 0841 with Unit shutdown and on the residual heat removal system and Unit 2 at 100% power, Unit 1 experienced a t~rary degradation of 1 8' clc bus voltage. The decrease in 1 8 1 de bus voltage caused '8' train reactor annunicator panels f-1( to become inoperable.

Safety injection actuation caused the pressurizer level to increase and exceed the tech spec limit of 33%. The event and its cause were diagnosed and safety injection terminated by 0843. Pressurizer level peaked at 42% and decreased to Less than 33% by 0847. RCS pressure remained constant during the event. The 1 8 1 de bus was restored to full voltage at 0900 and the annunciators returned to service at 0905. The cause of the event was an inadequate procedure in a design change to replace the *1 8 1 batteries. Design changes for replacing the other station batteries will use a revised procedure to preclude recurrence.

On June 5, 1989 at 1141 hrs, with Unit 1 at cold shutdown, an unplanned initiation of an engineered safety feature CESF) occurred during preparations to conmence a special test. The initiating signal was a low steam generator CS/G) level trip that resulted in closure of the S/G blowdown trip valves, opening of the auxiliary feedwater CAFW) valves, closure of the motor driven AFW JlU1'> breaker and opening of the steam driven AFW ~ steam supply valves. The ESF actuation occurred while siaulated S/G level signals were being transferred from one channel to another. The test directors were aware of the potential consequences of this action, but did not inform the shift supervisor. The test directors were counseled as to the necessity of keeping the shift supervisor cognizant of testing activities.

On Nov. 16, 1986 with Unit 2 at cold shutdown, during the performance of periodic test 16.3 (type 'A' test), a hi consequence limiting safeguards (CLS) signal was generated resulting in the unplanned closure of the containment radiation monitoring trip valves TV-RM-200A, 2008, and 200C.

This event was due to an inadequate procedure which did not instruct test personnel to close the trip valves affected by the hi CLS signal. The procedure will be modified to correct this inadequacy. This report is submitted pursuant to 10CFR50.73CA)C2)CIV).

ESFAS/SI Surry 2 09/08/89 0%; Unit 2 CSO Power level - 0%. On Sept. 8, 1989 at 2142 hrs, with Unit 2 in cold shutdown, during performance of a periodic test on the turbine building flood control circuitry, two of the four condenser waterbox circulation water (C\l) inlet isolation valves closed unexpectedly. The condenser inlet valves are designed to close upon the initiation of a hi hi consequence limiting safeguards (CLS) signal in coincidence with a loss of offsite power; however, no actual hi hi els signal was present. The event is being reported as an unplanned engineered safety features CESF) coqx>nent actuation. A four hour non-emergency report was made to the NRC per 10CFR50.72. The event was caused by a relay in the flood control circuit that did not drop out as required during testing which resulted in actuation of the valves. It was detennined that the original relay had been replaced with a new relay which required 1 less hold-in current causing this event to occur. An investigation will be conducted to determine how the new relays.were installed.

Operations personnel responded by starting the standby station air compressor. The reduced air pressure initially caused one main steam isolation valve to drift closed. The resultant increased steam flow caused steam line pressures to drop in the other two steam lines. The pressure drops were sufficient to actuate the rate-compensated low steamline pressure safety injection signal. The safety injection signal caused a resultant reactor trip. The control room operators followed the applicable emergency procedures and stabilized the plant in hot standby. An unusual event was declared at 1300 hrs and terminated at 1315 hrs. The low station air pressure was the result of a failed solder fitting on the instrument air system. The solder fitting failed due to a faulty heater control on an instrunent air dryer and improper equipment restoration. During subsequent plant recovery actions, water was found spraying from both low head safety injection pump wedge control rod seals. Both~ were declared inoperable which required an entry into cold shutdown. Postulated failure on the control rod seals was from a minor flow induced pressure transient. Following equipment repair, a plant startup to full power operations was conmenced on 9/1/85.

AIR callaway 11/05/84 Mode 1 20 min On 11/5/84 at 1156 CST and 11/6/84 at 0450, with the plant in mode at 45% power and 16% power, respectively, air lines supplying the SG feedwater regulating valves failed which caused ESF actuations along with reactor trips. The first event was due to a failure of the air line connection to the feedwater control valve, FCV-530, for SG *c*. Upon the loss of air supply, FCV-530 failed closed resulting in a lo-lo level in SG *c* which caused a reactor trip, turbine trip, feedwater isolation signal (FWIS), aux feed~ater actuation signal (AFAS) and SG blowdown isolation signal (SGBIS). The second event was due to a failure of the air line to the 'A' feedwater pump recirculation valve FV-2B causing it to fall open and closed then open. The resultant feedwater flow oscillations produced a

. high level in SG *c* c~using a turbi.ne trip, FWIS, AFAS and SGBIS. Due* to the FWIS and AFAS, SG levels began to decrease and at 0454 a lo-lo level on SG 'D' caused a reactor trip. The air line failures were.due to improper material applications and resulting fatigue cracking caused by the vibrations imposed on the air lines during feedwater system operation. Temporary repairs using copper or stainless steel tubing were made and design changes to install hangers are being made in accordance with aaninistrative procedures.

AIR Calvert Cliffs 1 01/27/87 Mode 1 20 min Power level - 100%. At 1809 on Jan. 27, 1987 the unit was manually tripped due to decreasing steam generator levels, which resulted from a loss of instrl.lllent air. At 1816 the reactor coolant pumps were stopped, because_ cooling water was isolated upon the loss of air pressure. Reactor coolant system temperature was maintained by the use of auxiliary feedwater and manual control of the atmospheric dump valves. At 1825 instrl.lllent air pressure was restored, and two reactor coolant pumps were started. At 1840 the remaining two reactor coolant pumps were started and the unit was maintained in Mode 3 (hot standby). To prevent recurrence of this type of event an engineering analysis is being performed to identify modifications that can increase the reliability of the instriinent air system, and the general supervisor-operations is reviewing this event with all operators.

AIR Catawba 1 01/14/85 Mode 2 15 min On 1-14-85, at 1440 hrs, the Unit 1 reactor was manually tripped. The reactor coolant pumps had been previously shutdown due to the loss of motor cooling water, and the ability to control unit reactivity was therefore less than desirable. The loss of motor cooling is attributed to a malfunction of service water valve 1RN-A83, which opens to supply an alternate source of cooling water to the reactor coolant pumps when the normal source is not available. On 1-14-85, a vendor was onsite to drill additional wells associated with the cathodic protection system. While drilling, an instriinent air system line A-70

was drilled through. The VI line which was* ;up~~red supplies control air to th~ cont. chilled *water control panel (1YV-CP-1). The loss of control air to 1YV-CP-1 caused the YV. chillers and piinps to shutdown. This sytem supplies the normal source of cooling water to the reactor coolant pump motors.

The 4 service water swap-over valves, which supply an alternate water source, are supplied by a different VI header than 1YV-CP-1. The swap-over valves therefore did not att~t to realign as they did not experience a loss of control air. Realizing that a swap-over to service water had not occurred, the NCO realigned the YV control switch from auto to service water but did not receive indication that a swap-over had taken place. Verification revealed that 1RN-A83 was still closed.

AIR Cook 1 11/25/85 Mode 1 20 min On 25 Nov, the reactor tripped while surveillance from the nuclear power range instrunent N-41 time constant rate trip circuit was in progress. The surveillance required the bistables for N-41 to be tripped. That resulted in a standing quadrant power tilt (QPT) alarm. Tech Specs required that the QPT be calculated with less than 4 power range instrtinents in service. During the process of taking electrical current readings from the other power range channels, to perform the tilt calculations, a spike occurred on N-44. The spike was found to have been caused by removal of the meter probe used for taking the current readings. The spike in power range instrument N-44 resulted in the 2-out-of-4 logic required for a rate trip.

Following the reactor trip with the turbine driven aux Fil~ <TDAFP) operating at rts normal speed, the turbine would not respond to control signals to reduce speed. The TDAFP was tripped and SG level was controlled using motor driven aux Fil~- Local control of the TDAFP could have been taken if it had been required. During the investigation, it was discovered that the control air tubing to the TDAFP governor had broken off. The cause of the tubing failure was attributed to its location. It was believed that per~orviel had .us.ed the t~ing as a hand hold ~hile checking TDAFP governor oil level.

To prevent recurrence of the reactor trip, operating procedures were changed to prohibit the use of a meter probe in an operable power range drawer for current readings when the bistables were tripped in another power range drawer for surveillance testing. To prevent recurrence of the control air tubing failure, a design change was completed that rerouted the tubing to prevent its being used as a hand hold.

AIR Davis Besse 1 12/07/87 Mode 1 31 min On 12/7/87 the unit experienced a reactor trip at 0656 hrs from 81% reactor thermal power. The initiating event was a loss of instrument air pressure which caused several secondary system valves to go to their failed position. Reactor power increased to the integrated control system (!CS) high demand limiter, feedwater flow increased causing reactor coolant system Tave to decrease. Due to a large moderator t~rature coefficient, reactor power increased to the reactor protection system high flux trip setpoint. The post-trip plant response was normal except that steam generator 1.1 pressure was slightly lower and steam generator 1.2 level was higher than the expected post trip ranges.

Operator actions were required to close.the moisture separator reheater (MSR) second stage reheat steam source valves and to stabilize steam generator 1.1 water levels. The loss of instrument air pressure was caused by direct venting of the instrunent air header to atmosphere when a solenoid valve failed on instrunent air dryers 1-1 and 1-2. This solenoid valve was repaired. The MSR second stage reheat steam source valves did not close clue to a pressure switch failure. This switch was replaced. The ICS did not respond fast enough to steam generator 1-1 decreasing water level. A modification to the ICS is scheduled *

As a result, all VI loads not protected by check valves experienced decreased VI pressure. The Low VI pressure caused the feedwater .control valves on each unit to begin to close, causing SG levels to decrease. At 0641, Unit 1 experienced a reactor/turbine trip on SG 1A low-low level. Pressurizer pressure dropped below the safety injection setpoint (1845 psig) initiating SI. The pressure dropped was partially d~e to a higher than normal steam loads with some-valves failing open on loss of VI. Unit 2 tripped on SG 2A low-low level, but pressure did not decrease to the SI setpoint. Both units were at 100% power at the time of the incident. VI c~ressor B was isolated and VI pressure returned to normal. The ruptured pipe was replaced. Several modifications are being reviewed for possible implementation.

AIR Millstone 3 04/12/87 Mode 1 20 min on April 12, 1987 at 0618 hrs, while operating at 66% power in Mode 1, a reactor trip occurred due to low low steam generator level in the D steam generator. The control room operators were in the process of increasing power during the initial startup following a scheduled maintenance outage. Approx. 15 minutes prior to the trip, the operators had increased reactor power from 56% to 66% within a 16 minute interval. When at 66% power the speed controller to the A turbine-driven feedwater pump (3FWS-P2A) began to oscillate. The responsible operator asslJlled manual control of the pump in an attempt to stop the oscillations. He was unable to.do so before the level in the D steam generator fell to the low low level and the plant tripped. The operators verified the opening of all reactor trip breakers and full insertion of all control rods. The root cause of the reactor trip is equipment failure. The primary cause was an air leak in an air supply Line to the D feedwater regulating valve, which resulted in Low low steam generator level. The leak had been fixed. A contributing cause was oscillations in the A turbine~driven f~wate~ punp controller. A vendor representative was consulted and found no problems with the~ *cont~olle~~ .. It respo~~-c~rrectly ~ring a plant startup on April 13, 1987. No other work is planned.

AIR Oconee 3 08/14/84 Mode 1 20 min on Aug. 14, 1984 at 1126 hrs, Unit 2 tripped from 100% full power (FP) when the instrument air Line to the POIIDEX outlet valves was accidentally sheared. The loss of air to the outlet valves caused the valves to fail shut which resulted in a loss of condensate flow to the condensate booster (CB) punps.

The CB pumps tripped and caused the main feeclwater (MFDW) ~ to trip on low suction pressure. The loss of the MFDW pumps initiated a reactor anticipatory trip. Approx. 16 minutes after the trip, the "3A" MFDW punp was restarted to r:eestablis~ MFDW flow. The emergency feeclwater (EFOW) control valves, 3FDW-315, 316, closed on an indication of 750 psig discharge pressure from the "3Ai, MFDW punp as designed. The once through steam generator's (OTSG's) were isolated from all feeclwater flow for approx. 9 minutes as a result of the automatic closing of the EFDW control valves and lack of MFDW flow due to insufficient discharge pressure from 3A MFDW pump. The inmediate corrective action was to stabilize the unit in a hot shutdown condition using emergency feedwater (EDFW). The inmediate corrective action to *restore feedwater flow *to the OTSG was to manually open the EFDW control valves and to increase 3A MFDW punp speed. The sheared air line was repaired. The unit was restarted and reached 100% FP at 0100 on Aug. 17, 1984.

AIR Prairie Island 1 05/08/85 Mode 1 20 min on May 8, 1985 at about 1323, a 2-inch copper instr1.111ent air l i_ne separted at a soldered elbow joint (PSF). As a result, the Unit 1 side of the instrunent air system (LD) depressurized enough to cause the feedwater regulating valve (FCV) to No. 12 steam generator to close. At 1326, Unit 1 tripped on Low steam generator level plus feedwater ftow/steam flow mismatch. Cable tray (TY) wrapping for A-72

p. 4 LER DATA BASE - AIR 09/14/93 PHASE 2 PLANT NAME EVENT INITIAL PLANT RECOVERY CATEGORY DATE CONDITION TIME Appendix R compliance was in progress in the vicinity of the break, and the air Line was moved somewhat to accomplish the wrap. This apparently placed enough stress on the elbow to cause it to separate.

The Unit was maintained in hot shutdown while repairs were made. A walkdown inspection of the instrunent air system was performed in areas of the plant where cable tray wrapping had taken place or was in progress. No additional problem areas were identified. The Unit was returned to service at 1847 on May 9.

AIR Shearon Harris 08/04/87 Mode 1 20 min The plant was operating at 100% reactor power in Mode 1, power operational on Aug. 1987. Instrument air dryer 1A was out of service for repairs. Instrunent air dryer was bypassed at approx_ 1715 hrs to replace the desiccant. Work was completed the dryer 1B and at approx. 2150 hrs the clearance on the dryer was removed. The restoration alignment on the clearance for placing dryer 18 back into service was incorrect. When the valves were repositioned in accordance with the clearance restoration lineup the instrunent air compressors were isolated from the air system. The air isolation caused air pressure to decay and caused air operated valve to go to "fail safe" positions. In particular, the main feedwater regulating valves to drift shut and the heater drain level control valves to divert drain flow to the condenser. Heater drain purps 1A and 18 tripped and a manual turbine runback was initiated. This was followed by a trip of main feedwater purp 1A which initiated an automatic turbine runback. The loss of instrunent air resulted in a decrease in steam generator water Levels. The**

turbine runback resulted in shrink in steam generator levels and resulted in a reactor trip at 2154 hrs due to steam generator feedwater steam/flow mismatch with low steam generator water levels.

AIR Surry 1 01/07/86 Mode 1 10 min On 1-7-86, an *aux. ventilation system safety mode initiated* alarm was received in the control room at 2059 hrs and the aux. ventilation emergency fans, 1-VS-F-58A and 588, auto started. Within seconds, trip valves TV-1204 and TV~CC-107 closed. While the ope~ators atterrpt~ to open the_ trip.valves, they noted instrunent air header pressure decreasing and feed flows decreasing. Inmediately, the operators attempted to open the feed reg. valves CFRV). However, due to the decrease of instrunent air CIA) pressure, operators could not prevent the FRV's from fully closing and at 2104 hrs a reactor trip occurred as a result of a Low steam generator (S.G.) level coincident with feed flow Less than steam flow signal. The decrease of IA pressure was due to ice formation in the Unit 1 IA dryer that resulted in blocking air flow. A hot gas bypass valve in the dryer was not properly adjusted. The Unit 1 IA dryer was the source of the problem and was bypassed. IA pressure was returned to normal and the affected system and c~nents were realigned. The bypass valve was properly adjusted by a service representative. Turbine building logs will be revised to incorporate IA dryer condenser temperature readings.

AIR Yankee Rowe 10/04/86 Mode 1 10 min While operating at 100% power in Mode 1 at 0917 on Oct. 4, 1986, the No. 3 (main) control air compressor air pressure switch CA-PS-453 failed. As a result of this failure and the subsequent inability of the back-up air compressors to rapidly restore the air pressure, the air header pressure decreased sufficiently to lock (by design) the feedwater control valves (FCV-FW-1000, 1100, 1200, and 1300) into the as-is position at 0918. Subsequently, the operators initiated steps by procedure to reset/restore the feedwater control valves to normal. As soon as the first feedwater control valve was reset (unlock) it began to rapidly open. This preferential feeding of No. 1 steam generator caused the Levels in the other three steam generators to rapidly decrease, resulting in a reactor scram on Low steam generator Level at 0938. The root cause of this event is the failure of the air pressure switch CCA-PS-453) coupled with recovery procedure guidance inadequacies for resetting of the feedwater control valves upon Lock-up. Corrective action included repair of the failed equipment and clarification of procedure instructions. All automatic safety systems functioned as required. The A-73

Upon noticing the RCS pressure drop, an RCO inmecliately closed PCV-3-455B and terminated the RCS pressure decrease. Approx. 65 gallons of water were injected into the RCS. The primary cause of the event was a defective controller for valve PCV-3-455B. Contributing causes were the RCO's failure to note the decreasing RCS pressure in time to take proapt corrective action, and a misc0111DJnication between the oncoming and the offgoing RC0 1 s. The controller for valve PCV*3-455B was replaced.

HRHR Sequoyah 1 02/11/81 The residual heat removal (RHR) contairment spray was inadvertently initiated when an assistant unit operator (AUO) opened valve 1-FCV-72-40, which isolates the RHR system from the containment spray header. The spray continued for approx. 35 minutes releasing approx. 40,000 gallons of primary water and 65,000 gallons of refueling water storage tank water to the contairment bldg. The UO received alarms indicating a rapid decrease in pressurizer level and pressure.

(from NSAC2, p. A*13) An RHRS containment spray isolation valve was inadvertently opened creating a loss of _coolant accident (LOCA) from the RCS via the RHRS to the containment spray header. The pressurizer ~tied and RHRS JXl1'> suction was essentially lost in about 2 minutes. The LOCA lasted for 39 minutes, during which (minute 10) the RIJST was valved into the RHRS in an attenq:,t to makeup for lost inventory. But the RHRS suction valve from the RCS was left open, permitting the LOCA to continue.

Also, residual RCS pressure overcame the pressure head of the RlolST, limiting the supply of makeup water. High pressure safety injection was manually initiated after 35 minutes. A total of approx.

40,000 gallons of reactor coolant and 60,000 gallons of RIJST water was sprayed into the containment.

JCVCS Robinson 2 01/29/81 *.:

A spurious safeguards actuation and reactor trip were received resulting from a high steam flow spike caused by turbine governor valve/E-H oil problems. Letdown flow _was restored. RCS pressure began decreasing with contairment pressure and dew point increasing. Upon contairment entry following letdown isolation, a letdown line drain valve (CVCS-200E) was found partially opened and leaking through with its pipe end-cap missing. Cause is the valve vibrating open and the pipe cap, which was serving as a pressure boundary, failing to hold at sometime following the first SI. Approx. 4500-6000 gallons of water leaked to the contairment sump during the event. Letdown was secured. The valve was secured in the closed position and a new cap was installed.

At 2340 hrs the plant was at 444 degrees and 1490 psis when a reactor coolant system (RCS) leak was indicated inside containment. The chemical and volume control system (CVCS) was isolated at 0007 hrs and the leakage stopped. At 0040 hrs an inspection of the containment A-76

injection system. The system was isolated and the eves was restarted at 0046 hrs. A subsequent calculation verified RCS leakage was less than one gallon per minute. Since there was no operable boration flow path or charging path while RC 526 was opened, the plant was in a condition prohibited by technical specifications for approx. 29 minutes. The apparent root cause of the event was the failure of utility licensed operators to doc1.111ent the status of this sytem during shift turnover. The shift turnover procedure.has been revised to provide for a 24 hr format turnover sheet for all licensed positions. This will facilitate review of turnover information from several previous shifts. Since, due to plant conditions, the boration capability of the charging system would not have been required during an accident, this event did not affect public health and safety.

JCVCS Yankee Rowe 06/27/86 Mode 5, Maint out Power level - OX. On June 27, 1986, at 0137 hrs during a maintenance outage with the plant in Mode 5, main coolant was inadvertently drained to the Low pressure surge tank CLPST). This could have resulted in a Loss of shutdown cooling. This event occurred while transferring to the alternate method of shutdown cooling per procedure OP-2162, Attachment c. Performance of this procedure was necessary because of the failure of the shutdown cooling pulp's shaft seal. During the evolution, approx. 2000*

gallons of water was drained from the pzr and main coolant pressure dropped from 100 psig to 10 psig.

The pzr did not enpty. The control room operator CCRO) inmediately secured the LPST cooling pulp and the primary auxiliary operator (PAO~ isolated the flow path. The CRO started all three charging puips and restored pzr Level and pressure. The root cause of this occurrence has been attributed to personnel error. While conducting the alternate shutdown cooling valve lineup, CH-V-654 was not fully shut, which resulted in a main coolant system to LPST flow path. The* PAO thought that the valve had ccapleted its full travel when he operated the manual valve. This occurrence was reviewed with the appropriat~ plant personnel arict the need for strict procedural compliance was esrphasized. This is the first occurrence of this nature. There were no adverse effects to the public health or safety as the*

result of this occurrence.

. JRHR Braidwood 1 03/25/88 0% power level Power level - OX. On March 25, 1988 and March 27, 1988, operators noted a decreasing volune control tank Level which caused increased make-up. Reactor coolant water inventory balance surveillances confirmed that unidentified leakage was in excess of 1 gpm. The source of the March 25, 1988 occurrence was thought to be an improperly Locked closed valve which was inadvertently bunped off its closed seat. The residual heat removal (RHR) ~ suction relief valves may have contributed to the generating station emergency plan unusual event for both occurrences. Leakage past the seats by measuring the downstream tenperature indicated the source of leakage. Subsequent investigation of one of the relief valves indicated that the disc insert pin was broken as a result of inproper nozzle ring setting. The 1A RHR suction relief valve has been repaired and reinstalled. The 18 relief valve will be tested and repaired as necessary prior to restart of the unit. There have been no previous occurrences of Crosby relief valve failures.

JRHR Braidwood 1 12/01/89 0% power Level Power level - OX. At 0142 on 12/1/89 while drawing a bubble in the pzr, reactor coolant system (RCS) pressure slowly increased from 375 psig to 404 psig. At this time the 18 residual heat removal (RHR) pulp suction relief valve, which had a setpoint of 450 psig, actuated and remained open. Charging flow was increased but pzr level indicated 0% by 0151. Reactor operators concluded that an RHR pulp suction relief valve had lifted because hold up tank Levels were increasing rapidly. The operating train of RHR, 1A, was isolated at 0155. At 0200 RCS pressure reached 272 psig and stabilized. RCS Level was at the Lower portion of the pzr surge Line and flow into the RCS was equal to the flow exiting the RCS.

At 0215 the Licensed supervisors decided to return the second charging pulp to service per

  • 10CFR50.54(X). At 0235 the second charging~ was started. At 0245 pzr level was above 0%. At 0319 A-77

field reports identified that the 18 RHR ~ suction relief had act~ted; At 0350 the 11 11 RHR train*

was isolated which terminated the event. Approx. 64,000 gallons had relieved through the valve. The cause of the early lift was dirt between the valve spindle and guide sleeve which affected valve lift setpoint adjustment. The cause for the valve remaining open was an incorrect nozzle ring setting due to a personnel error.

JRHR McGuire 2 08/05/84 0% power level Power level - 0%. On 8/6/84, McGuire 2 operators discovered a broken weld on the residual heat removal (RHR) system letdown line to the chemical and voliine control system (CVCS). The RHR system was in service at the time, and water was spraying from the broken pipe and from the stem of the valve C2NV-121) in the eves. An estimated 3000 to 7000 gallons of contaminated water was contained in the heat exchanger room, the RHR and contaiment spray SUit), and the B floor drains~ and tank. Upon discovery the leaking line was isolated, a subsequent inspection revealed a nurt>er of supports/restraints CS/RS) damaged, and the broken socket weld coq>letely separated. On 45/85, 7 socket welds with crack indications were discovered on the 2-inch crossover piping between valves 2ND-17 and 2ND-32. No weld failured occurred as in 8/84- Six of the welds with indications were in piping rep.laced after the failure, but before vibration testing fol lowing the 8/84 failure. Causes of the August event are attributed to c ~ n t malfunction/failure, due to loose packing in 2NV-121, and to an unusual service condition, because a gas void in the line resulted in water hanmer. The cause of the April event is classified as an unusual service event, because socket welds were not designed to withstand the severe loading of the.vibration testing that occurred in 8/84. Damaged piping and S/RS have been replaced. The subject valves have been modified.

JRHR S1m11er 1 05/06/85 CSD (Mode 5)

Power level - 0%. On May 5, 1985 at approx. 22 hrs, a reactor coolant system (RCS) pressure transient resulted in a challenge of a resid~l heat removal CRHR) suction relief valve. The plant was in cold shutdown (Mode 5) with RHR system (Train "A") in operation. 'Di~sel generator CD/G) surveillance testing was in progress and had resulted in a non-valid test failure during an attenpt to parallel the 0/G to the ESF bus CXSW-108). The failure to parallel the D/G was a result of failure of the speed control switch on the aiain control board. During troubleshooting activities on the.DIG, a personnel error resulted in a loss of ESF bus CXSW-108). Major equipment affected included the loss of the 11811 coq>onent cooling water CCCW) ~ . 11811 service water CSW) ~ . and 11011 HVAC chiller and chill water

~ - The loss of CCW flow to the reactor coolant pump (RCP) required the shutdown of the operating RCP. The breaker was reclosed to ESF bus (XSW-108) and the bus was reloaded. Upon restart of the RCP with solid plant operation, pressure spikes occurred which resulted in the challenge to the train "A" RHR suction relief valve. Following the relief valve actuation, an operator noted that pressurizer relief tank CPRT) level continued to increase apparently due to a failure of the relief valve to reseat. Approx. 1600 gallons of RCS inventory were released to the PRT.

KRCS North Anna 1 06/17/87 0% power, refuel.

Power level - 0%. On June 6, 1987, during the 59th day of a refueling outage with Unit 1 in Mode 5 and Unit 2 in Mode 1, a problem developed with the Unit 1 'A' reactor coolant~ CRCP) motor which required motor replacement. The RCP motor was uncoupled at 0420 hrs on June 18, 1987, resulting in a small but expected leak up the pull> shaft of several gallons per minute. It was believed that the makeup flow rate to the reactor coolant system (RCS) compensated for this and other inventory loss because pressurizer level was held at approx. 20%. However, at 0130 hrs on June 21, 1987, it was discovered that pressurizer pressure was subatmospheric, and as a result, pressurizer level was not a reliable indication of RCS inventory. RCS inventory had decreased by approx. 17,005 gallons. There was no impact on safety because the residual heat removal system remained in service throughout this event. Corrective actions have been identified to address procedural, training and RCS inventory indication inadequacies during Mode 5 operation. Although there was no impact on safety, and it is not reportable under 10CFR50.73, this report is being submitted as a voluntary LER due to the potential for A-78

This is in excess of the technical specifications limit of 10 gmp for identified leakage. The source was leaking drain valves on the reactor coolant loops. The type of valve used to isolate the loop drains nust be torqued to ensure they seat properly. Plant procedures did not specify this requirement. As a result, the valves were checked shut during preoperational valve lineups but were not torqued *

~ile removing the unit from service, a spurious SI signal was generated. Trip valve, TV-CC-109B, failed to close as designed. The coaponent cooling CCC) system is a closed system and its itnegrity was maintained during the event; therefore, an isolation barrier existed between the containment and the environnent. A search for an electrical cause for the valve malfunction revealed no problems. No specific mechanical cause has been found. Efforts have been initiated to further investigate the event but no definitive answers are available at this time.

TRANS Surry 1 01/06/82 HSO A spurious safety injection caused a phase 1 containnent isolation. Trip valve CC-1098 failed to close as required by tech spec. The cause of the event was determined to be a piece of teflon tape (type used to seal threaded air fittings) which prevented operation of the three way SOV that controls TV-CC-109B. Corrective actions consisted of checking valve operator circuit, establishing adninistrative control of the valve, removing foreign material, testing as per PT 18.6B and returning to service.

TRANS Surry 1 04/15/82 Routine startup The reactor coolant system was diluted to a boron concentration wherein the critical rod position achieved, if the control rod assemblies were withdrawn in normal sequence, would have been lower than the insertion limit for zero power. This is contrary to tech spec 3.12.A.4 and reportable per tech spec 6.6.2.B.(3). Failure to maintain makeup boron concentration equal to RCS concentration resulted in an overdilution. Because of errors in the ECP calculations, the dilution was not detected until the subsequent approach to criticality. The controlling bank was inserted and the RCS borated to the required concentration.

Inmediately following the trip, all control and protection systems functioned as expected with the exception of source range NI-31, which failed high. Approx. 4.5 hrs following the reactor trip, with NI-31 failed high, source range Nl-32 was declared inoperable due to noise. Mith the unit at a hot shutdown condition, source range indication was unavailable for about 4 hrs. Appropriate abnormal procedures were implemented to insure posit.ive reactivity was not added to the core. The preaq> to NI-31 was replaced and source range indication was established.

On June 19, 1984, with the unit just Less than 10% power, a reactor trip resulted when 2 of 4 nuclear power channels, NI 44 and NI 41 exceeded 10% power with the turbine unlatched. A primary plant cooldown of approx ** 8 F/min and a primary dilution of 58 ppn contributed to the power increase. Following the trip, all control and protection systems functioned as expected. Main steam was isolated and the turbine stop valves were closed to Limit primary plant cooldown. Precautions will be added to station procedures (OP 1.4 and PT 15.1C) to prevent testing the steam driven auxiliary feedwater pulp near the P-10 setpoint without the main turbine being Latched.

TRANS Surry 1 01/27/85 Routine startup Power level - 010%. On 1/27/85, Unit 1 was critical with reactor power stable at 5X following a reactor trip on 1/26/85 (see LER 85-003-00). The steam~ valves were isolated earlier because of known but not specifically identified or quantified leakage. As the d ~ were unisolated, the resulting leakge led to a primary system ten.,erature decrease which caused reactor power to increase.

As power neared 10X, it was decided to latch the turbine to prevent a trip. Approx. 2 minutes after the turbine was Latched, the 4 turbine stop valves closed resulting in a reactor trip at 0748 hrs. One factor contributing to the trip was not sufficiently considering the effect of the steam Leakage on plant parameters. Another contributor to the event was that only one electro hydraulic (EH) pulp was available and running when the turbine was Latched and it did not satisfy the EH demands during the Latching operation. The steam dlllp Leakage was identified and isolated. The hunan performance evaluation system coordinator is investigating this event and will provide feedback to the operating staff to i~rove hunan performance in similar circ1.111Stances.

TRANS Surry 1 01/28/85 Startup Power Level - 015%. On 1/28/85, during a Unit 1 startup, a reactor trip occurred due.to a differential pressure anti-motoring turbine trip. Plant parameters did not indicate that a generator motoring condition existed. The trip occurred because the exhaust pressure sensing Line root valve in the anti-motoring instrunentation was isolated. It is believed that this valve, while shut, developed a small Leak dur~ng a previous period of power operation, allowing the sensing line to become pressurized. The line remained sufficiently pressurized during the shutdown period to cause the anti-motoring delta p setpoint to be exceeded as the turbine was being loaded. Station drawings and valve Line up checklists for the main steam system will be changed to reflect the correct position and function of the valves. (from chulowp.Ler)

TRANS Surry 1 02/07/86 Routine startup Power level - 015%. On 2/7/86, a Unit 1 startup was in progress. Feedwater control was in manual and the transition from bypass to main feed regulating valve (FRV) CEIIS FCV) was taking place when the 11C11 steam generator feed flow suddenly had a step increase above demand. When demand was decreased, the flow went to zero. llhen the 11 c11 FRVwas opened the second time, the flow again increased significantly.

The operator closed the FRV; however, he was unable to prevent a high level condition in the steam generator and at 2338 hrs, a feed pulp trip and turbine trip occurring initiated a reactor trip. The cause of this event was the failure to adjust the feedback cam on the 11c° FRV following maintenance, which prevented fine control of the valve. Due to a procedural inadequacy, the instrunent department was not notified to check the control adjustments of the valve following maintenance just prior to startup.

On Sept. 16, 1986, with Unit No. and Unit No. 2 at 100% power, a reactor protection system relay failed during the perfonnance of Unit 1 monthly surveillance testing. The relay failure resulted in a partial train 'B' engineered safety feature (ESF) actuation. On Sept. 20, 1986 with Unit 1 at hold shutdown and Unit 2 at 100% power the same reactor protection relay failed.

Again, a partial train 1 8 1 ESF actuation was initiated. The cause ~f both relay failures was determined to be a failure of the coil. The coil has been replaced, the relay re-installed and satisfactorily tested.

Plant parameters did not indicate a valid high flux trip. An electrician was checking for continuity across the switch for TV-SS-201A when an arc occurred resulting ina spike on vital bus 1 2which caused th*e spike on NI-35.

The reason for the trip was personnel error by a instrllllent technician while he was troubleshooting NI-32 which had a failed premq:>. The instrllllent technician was disciplined. A replacement premq:> is on order and will be installed when it arrives.

TRANS Surry 2 03/16/87 Hot SO Power level - OX. On March 16 1987 at 1704 hrs, Unit 2 was at intermediate shutdown with shutdown banks 'A' and 'B' withdrawn. During the performance of a periodic test of a steam flow transmitter CEIIS-FT) on Unit 2, a reactor trip"by turbine trip occurred, resulting in the insertion of the shutdown banks CEIIS-Ra>). This test trips permissive P-7 bistables CEIIS-33) (turbine first stage pressure) ad sinulates a signal of 10X power. Since the turbine was unlatched at the time, permissive P-7 CEIIS*JC) was activated, resulting in a reactor trip by turbine trip. The periodic test procedure requires the instrument technician to ensure that the turbine is latched if plant conditions are such that the reactor trip breakers CRTB'S) are closed and reactor power is less than 10X. The technician believed that the RTB's were open when in fact, they had been closed earlier in the day. The technician continued with the proceudre, and tripped the P-7 bistables, resuting in the activation of P-7 and the ensuing reactor trip by turbine trip. The technicians have been re-instructed to *obtain the status of. plant conditions from the shift supervisor.

On Sept. 10, 1988 at 0158 hrs, with the unit 2 reactor at 4X power, during a shutdown for a refueling outage, a reactor trip by turbine trip occurred. The event occurred while oeprators were attepting to maintain the turbine at synchronous speed, with the generator output breakers open. \lhen the valve position Limiter was raised, per the procedure, a unexpectedly rapid opening of the turbine governor valves and a rapid increase in turbine first stage pressure occurred, resulting in a turbine trip/reactor trip. Operators followed appropriate plant procedures and quickly stabilized the plant following the trip. The cause of the event has been attributed to a coabination of an inadequate procedure, a faulty valve position limit indication, and an unexpectedly fast valve position limiter setting response. The controlling procedure used during the event will be revised to ensure that the turbine control system is placed in the configuration intended. Testing will be performed on the electro hydraulic control (EHC) system, which will determine if any additional actions will be required.

A generator backup differential lockout relay 86 Bu tripped the turbine, and since reactor power was greater than 10%, the turbine trip initiated a reactor trip. Operators performed the appropriate plant procedures and quickly stabilized the plant following the trip. The 86 bu generator backup lockout relay trip was caused by the spurious actuation of the generator backup illf)edance relay CKD-41). The exact cause of the spurious actuation of the relay could not be determined, however faults were discovered in the relay. The faulted KD-41 relay was replaced and appropriate testing was performed. The generator startup procedure has been revised to ensure that reactor power is less than 10X prior to closing the exciter field breaker.

B.2 Review of NRC Information Notices:

90-19: Potential Loss of Effective Volume for Containment Recirculation Spray at PWR Facilities Entrapment of containment spray water in the refueling canal may lead to insufficient water returned to the sump, and inadequate net positive suction head to the containment spray pumps and low head safety injection pumps. This may happen if the refueling canal drain valve is closed.

Resolution: The RWSTs of both units are cross connected, and the amount of water that can be heldup in the refueling canal is only a small fraction of the water in a RWST.

89-77: Debris in Containment Emergency Sumps and Incorrect Screen Configurations June 16,1988, Surry. July 8, 1989, Trojan. Diablo Canyon.

88-28: Potential for Loss of Post-LOCA Recirculation Capability due to Insulation Debris Blockage March 14, 1988, Susquehanna. (It appears that any recirculation will be not likely during an outage. Due to the activities going on, it is not likely to keep the floor inside the containment clean.)

Resolution: The concern regarding the ability to use recirculation while the reactor is shutdown due to the potential problem of transient materiai debris due to the activities during shutdown need to be modelled. Surry's low pressure injection/recirculation system does not have heat exchanger for heat removal. Therefore, long term heat removal may depend on containment spray/recirculation.

90-06: Potential for Loss of Shutdown Cooling While at Low Reactor Coolant Level July 18, 1989, Comanche Peak. Loss of the invertor supplying power to the controller for the RHR heat exchanger flow control valve (FCV) caused the FCV to open to the fully open position. The sudden increased flow caused vortexing at the RHR suction.

Resolution: Use it as a loss of RHR event. It occurred prior to initial criticality. Therefore, it is not used to estimate the frequency of loss of RHR.

90-05: Inter-system Discharge of Reactor Coolant December 1, 1989, Braidwood, 68000 gallon. Stuck open RHRS relief valve, and inability of operators to identify the leak(lack of EOP) caused the incident to last more than 3 hours3.472222e-5 days <br />8.333333e-4 hours <br />4.960317e-6 weeks <br />1.1415e-6 months <br /> before the condition of the plant is stabilized.

Resolution: Use it as a loss of RHR event with RCS solid while drawing a bubble in POS 12.

89-73: Potential overpressurization of Low Pressure Systems September 5, 1989, McGuire Unit 2. Containment spray system(design pressure 220psig) was overpressurized by 450 psig RCS pressure during functional test of suction valve from the sump. 2200 gallons of coolant was lost. In adequate test procedure.

Resolution: Surry's RHR system does not take suction from the sump. Neither does the containment spray system. The two recirculation systems do, however, they do not take suction from RWST. The low head injection system injects into all cold and hot legs, takes suction from the RWST and the containment sump, and does not take suction from the RCS. Therefore, this scenario does not apply to Surry. The injection lines are shared between the high head injection system and low head injection system. Normally the LHSI is isolated from charging NUREG/CR-6144 B-4

by one check valve and two closed MOVs. Upon spurious SI in shutdown condition, if the check valve fails open, the LHSI may be overpressurized. LHSI flow path will be open with the normally operating charging pump injecting to it and the RCS. Similar scenario may occur at power. We need to review test procedures for high head injection system, low head injection system and RHRS to identify possible scenarios that may lead to an interfacing systems LOCA This should be considered as a special initiator.

89-41: Operator Response to Pressurization of Low-Pressure Interfacing System March 9, 1989, Votgle. Leakage through inboard isolation valve of the RHR system cause the RHR system pressure to stay high after taken out of service. Operators opened the suction valves from the RWST to relieve the pressure.

Resolution: This can be used as a data in interfacing LOCA analysis. Surry's RHR system does not take suction from RWST.

89-71: Diversion of the Residual Heat Removal Pump Seal Cooling Water Flow during Recirculation Operation Following a Loss-of-Coolant Accident Haddam Neck PRA During normal operation, CCW system provides cooling to the RHR heat exchangers and pump seal coolers. During a LOCA condition, CCW is isolated and service water is used to provide cooling to the RHR components. A single failure of one of tile service water motor-operated valves to open following a LOCA would result in only one branch of service water being available to provide cooling to both RHR heat exchangers and the seal water coolers.

Resolution: A review of ccw and sw operations at Surry showed that the CCW to the RHR heat exchanger will be isolated on a safety injection signal. However, RHR is not used for safety injection.

The low head injection pumps at Surry are self-cooled. Loss of CCW and SW are considered in support system failures.

89-67: Loss of Residual Heat Removal Caused by Accumulator Nitrogen Injection ,.

May 20, 1989, Salem 1, cold shutdown. Full flow test of accumulator check valve caused 1800 cubic feet of nitrogen to enter the RCS. Both RHR pumps were nitrogen bound. Operators had difficulty in locating the drain and vent valves.

Resolution: Use it as a loss of RHR data 88-23: Potential for Gas Binding of High-Pressure Safety Injection Pumps During a Loss-of-Coolant Accident February 26, 1988, Farley 1. Hydrogen from VCT may accumulate in the high point in the charging pump suction (pipe segment between the charging pump suction and the LHSI discharge).

Resolution: Need to get isometrics for LHSI, HHSI, RHR and RCS.

May 13, 1988, South Texas. October 12, 1988, Surry. Hydrogen from the volume control tank or air dissolved in RWST water may be released to ECCS piping between RWST and HPSI.

Resolution: Need to get isometrics for LHSI, HHSI, RHR and RCS.

October 30, 1989, Trojan nuclear plant. Both high head injection pump may be inoperable if a safety injection signal occurs while the manual bypass" valve around the motor operated

  • VCT outlet isolation valves is opened per test procedure.

B-5 NUREG/CR-6144

Resolution: At Surry, the seal water go to the charging pump suction directly without going to the VCT..

It is connected to the VCT only through a relief valve RV1362B that allows relief into the*

VCT.

87-57: Loss of Emergency Boration Capability due to Nitrogen Gas Intrusion May 28, 1987, Turkey Point Unit 4. Nitrogen entered the boric acid system through a failed boric acid transfer pump mechanical seal. The seal is provided with an accumulator tank partially filled with demineralized water. The accumulator is given a 40-psi nitrogen overpressure to preclude leakage of the boric acid across the seal faces. As demineralized water entered the boric acid system through the failed seal, additional nitrogen was automatically supplied to the accumulator to maintain the pressure. The falling water level then allowed the nitrogen cover gas to enter the boric acid system through the failed seal.

Resolution: A failure mode of boric acid transfer pump 82-19: Loss of High Head Safety Injection Emergency Boration and Reactor Coolant Makeup Capability February 12, 1982, McGuire unit 1. Hydrogen from the positive displacement pump suction dampener entered the common suction of the charging system, causing both centrifugal charging pumps and the PDP to be inoperable.

Resolution: A CCF of charging pumps. Surry does not have a positive displacement charging pump.

83-49 and 82-32: Sampling and Prevention of Intrusion of Organic Chemicals into Reactor Coolant System February 13, 1983, Hatch. April 24, 1982 Hatch Unit 1. May 5, 1983, LaSalle. (Can similar events occur at a PWR leading to degraded core heat removal or reactivity accident?)

Resolution: A systematic way of identifying such scenarios is needed, otherwise, these events can be used as data for the scenarios. The Lasalle event is considered also possible for a PWR, with the condensate storage tank replaced by primary grade water storage tank. However, the event does not seem to have any significant safety impact. It may require cleanup of the RCS, but is not an initiating event.

89-54: Potential Overpressurization of the Component Cooling Water System May 15, 1989, Surry. A design deficiency in the CCW system relief valve was reported. The capacity of the relief valve is not sufficient to relieve a tube rupture of the thermal barrier beat exchanger. Additional relieve valves installed.

Resolution: In design change package 89-008, the CCW inlet check valve to the thermal barrier was replaced by two check valves in series. The thermal barrier outlet is isolated by a trip valve upon high flow.

89-32: Surveillance Testing of Low-Temperature Over-Pressurization Systems Beaver Valley, Turkey Point, Shearon Harris. Stroke time requirement in inservice testing (15 sec) for PORV was not consistent with the safety analysis (2 sec).

Resolution: LTOP bas been identified before and will be considered.

88-92: Potential for Spent Fuel Pool Draindown October 2, 1988, Surry Unit 1. Potential drain down of spent fuel pool to 13 inch above t o p .

of fuel assembly.

NUREG/CR-6144 B-6

  • Resolution: Design change package ??? installed new cavity seal in the Oct. 90 refueling outage. NSAC-129 identify events involving drop of one fuel assembly, inadvertent lifting of a fuel assembly, and misposition of 4 fuel assemblies into 4 control cells with the control rods withdrawn.

84-93: Potential for Loss of Water from the Refueling Cavity August 21, 1984, Haddam Neck.

Resolution: Beyond the scope except for flooding Resolution: Consider it for internal flooding analysis 88-87: Pump Wear and Foreign Objects in Plant Piping Systems May 16, 1988 Surry Unit 2, auxiliary feedwater system. June 6, 1988, Surry Units 1 and 2, recirculation spray pumps.

Resolution: Get information on improvement in design or operation. Include these failure modes.

88-36: Possible Sudden Loss of RCS Inventory During Low Coolant Level Operation Diablo Canyon. Westinghouse cold opening scenario 87-23: Loss of Decay Heat Removal During Low Reactor Coolant level Operation Diablo Canyon.

86-101: Loss of Decay Heat Removal due to Loss of Fluid Levels in Reactor Coolant System Resolution: Already identified.

88-21: Inadvertent Criticality Events at Oskarshamn and at U.S. Nuclear Power Plants July 30, 1987, Oskarshamn. November 7, 1973, Vermont Yankee. November 12, 1976.

Inadvertent withdrawal of a control rod that is adjacent to a fully withdrawn control rod leads to criticality, and the scram system shutdown the reactor.

Resolution: This is a reactivity accident that should be modelled.

88-17: Summary of Responses to NRC Bulletin 87-01, "Thinning of Pipe Walls in Nuclear Power Plants" December 9, 1986, Surry Unit 2. 1987, Trojan. December 10, 1987, LaSalle Unit 1. Pipe thinning in feedwater line.

86-106: Feedwater Line Break December 9. 1986, Surry Unit 2.

Resolution: Find information on improvement in surveillance of feedwater lines and determine if the scenario need to be modelled..

87-59: Potential RHR Pump Loss Potential for dead heading one of two RHR pumps in systems that have a common miniflow recirculation line serving both pumps, during a small LOCA. Capacity of miniflow recirculation line for single pump operation.

Resolution: NRC or Westinghouse should have resolved this. Get resolution from NRC.

87-46: Unidentified Loss of Reactor Coolant June 21, 1987, North Anna Unit 1, cold shutdown. 17,000 gallons of coolant was lost and voids formed in the vessel head and SG tubes. Misleading pressurizer level indication.

B-7 NUREG/CR-6144

Resolution: This is a LOCA event that can be used as data. Misleading level indication need to be

  • modelled.
  • 84-55: Seal Table Leaks at PWRs January 20 ,1984, Zion Unit 1. April 19, 1984, Sequoyah.

Resolution: Minor leaks during power operation. We will look into failure of temporary seals used during refueling.

87-40: Backseating Valves Routinely to Prevent Packing leakage June 12, 1987, Surry Unit 1. A low flow reactor trip occurred due to the failure of the stem of a hot leg loop stop valve. Similar event occurred March 7, 1974.

Resolution: Surry does not use electrical backseating of the loop stop valves any more. Use it as data for power operation.

86-105: Potential for Loss of Reactor Trip Capability at Intermediate Power Levels (If a reactivity insertion occurs above 10% power, no scram will occur until 109% power)(If a reactivity insertion occurs below 10% a single failure of a bistable switch to reset may lead to failure of scram system.)

Resolution: We need to model it.

86-79: Degradation or Loss of Changing Systems at PWR Nuclear power Plants Using Swing-Pump Designs June 26, 1985, Surry Unit 1. Pump A was down for maintenance, and when pump B was racked out, an interlock caused the running pump C (swing pump) to trip.

Resolution: This will be modeled. No additional action needed.

86-63: Loss of Safety injection Capability December 28, 1984, Indian Point 2. Two leaky valves in the discharge of the boron injection tank enabled highly concentrated boric acid to flow to the low pressure discharge line (SI pump suction) and to precipitate in the pumps, which were not heat traced. Degassing of the nitrogen cover gas dissolved in the boric acid solution is believed to be one of the likely sources of gas found in the pumps.

Resolution: Surry does not have boron injection tank.

86-58: Dropped Fuel Assembly February 26, 1986, Haddam Neck. A spent fuel assembly was inadvertently lifted from the core when the upper core support structure was removed from the reactor vessel. The assembly impacted the core barrel and was knocked off.

Resolution: . Use it as well as the recent Indian Point incident as data for failure of one fuel assembly.

85-12: Recent Fuel Handling Events Resolution: We need to model it along with events in NSAC-129.

86-01: Failure of Main Feedwater Check Valves Causes Loss of Feedwater System Integrity And Water-hammer Damage November 21, 1985, San Onofre Unit 1.

Resolution: We need to model it.

80-01: Fuel Handling Events NUREG/CR-6144 B-8

December 11, 1979, inadvertent raising of spent fuel assembly, December 17, 1979, a new fuel assembly was dropped in the fuel pool. Pilgrim.

Resolution: Combine with NSAC-129.

84-70: Reliance on Water Level Instrumentation with a Common Reference Leg All the wide range level instruments have a common reference leg that developed a leak. The leak made the operators to maintain an apparent level while the actual level decreased, thereby causing the pressurizer to drain and a bubble to enter the top of the head.

Resolution: We need to find out about the design of level instrumentation at Surry. Is this a LOCA?

84-42: Equipment Availability for Conditions During Outages Not Covered by Technical Specifications January 8, 1984, Palisades. Loss of offsite power with one diesel generator 2 down for maintenance and the service water pump that is powered from diesel generator 1 was also down for maintenance. DG 1 was tripped 50 minutes later upon overheating.

Resolution: Already identified.

83-46: Common-Mode Valve Failures Degrade Surry's Recirculation Spray Subsystem February 9, 1983, Surry. Four normally closed MOVs that permit service water flow to the recirculation spray heat exchangers failed to open. Possible causes are corrosion, marine growth, infrequent testing, and low torque switch setting.

Resolution: A common mode failure. Check if 1150 models it.

83-41: Actuation of Fire Suppression System Causing Inoperability of Safety-Related Equipment May 28, 1981, Surry unit 2. and other events. Discharge from the foam distributor system installed in the main (reserve) diesel fuel oil tank caused 4000 gallons of water be introduced and widely distributed in the diesel fuel system before a routine periodic test disclosed the presence of water.

Resolution: Get information on fixes implemented to determine if it need to be modelled.

82-45: PWR Low Temperature Overpressurization Protection August 1976, Turkey Point Unit 4. Possible causes of inoperable PORVs:

1. Operation with both PORVs isolated (block valves closed) because of known PORV leakage.
2. Operator error during maintenance.
3. Isolation and venting of instrument air to the PORV actuators during integrated leak rate testing.
4. Low nitrogen(backup accumulator) pressure to PORV actuators.

Resolution: LTOP will be analyzed.

82-17: Overpressurization of Reactor Coolant System November 28, 29, 1981, Turkey Point 4. A pressure spike caused by starting a reactor coolant pump caused automatic isolation of the RHR suction valves. OMS failed to operate because a pressure transmitter isolation valve was found closed, the summator in the supposedly operable electrical circuitry failed, and the redundant OMS circuit was out of service.

Resolution: Already identified.

B-9 NUREG/CR-6144

82-28: Hydrogen Explosion While Grinding in the Vicinity of Drained And Open Reactor Coolant

  • System .

April 20, 1982, Arkansas nuclear One Unit 1. A craftsman was grinding the HPI pipe line in preparation for welding. A hydrogen explosion occurred and blew the craftsman away by about 3 feet.

Resolution: Consider it in fire analysis.

81-10: Inadvertent Containment Spray due to Personnel Error February 11, 1981, Sequoyah.

Resolution: Already identified.

81-09: Degradation of Residual Heat Removal

  • March 5, 1981, Beaver Valley, midloop operation.

Resolution: Already identified.

81-04: Cracking in Main Steam Lines February 23, 1981, Surry Unit 1. A lengthy crack indication in the I.D. counterbore area of a weldment on the in-line "T' fitting which connects the vertical run of 30-inch piping to the safety relief valve header and 30-inch main steam line of steam generator A Resolution: Use it in LOCA frequency assessment.

80-44: Actuation of ECCS in the Recirculation Mode While in Hot Shutdown December 5, 1980, Davis Besse. Inadvertent actuation caused a flow path to the RCS via the borated water storage tank and the DHR piping. No BWSTwater was pumped into the RCS.

Rather, during the valve transition time of about 1.5 minutes, approximately 15,000 gallons of borated water was drained from the BWST to the containment emergency sump.

Resolution: RHR system at Surry is independent of safety injection system and does not take suction from RWST or containment sump.

80-20: Loss of Decay Heat Removal Capability at Davis-Besse unit While in a Refueling Mode April 19, 1980, Davis-Besse. Loss of power to non-essential 480 v bus caused recirculation mode actuation, and loss of RHR suction. (extensive maintenance activities)

Resolution: Already identified in RHR data base.

80-34: Boron Dilution of Reactor Coolant During Steam Generator Decontamination May 29, 1980, Trojan. July 5, 1980, San Onofre 1, high pressure demineralizedflushing water leaked by a dislodged nozzle seal and the resulting reactivity addition exceeded the tech. specs.

Resolution: Already included in reactivity accident.

79-04: Degradation of Engineered Safety Features Arkansas Nuclear One, units 1 and 2. MSIV closure at unit 1 lead to loss of ac power at unit 2 which was in hot standby.

Resolution: A cause for loss of offsite power.

NUREG/CR-6144 B-10

Review of Generic Letters, IE Bulletins & IE Circulars Conclusions GL -- generic letter IEB -- IE Bulletin IEC -- IE Circular

1) Loss of RHR. Some special concerns are: a) in mid.loop operation, if boiling begins in the RCS and the cold leg is open (e.g. maintenance on the pumps), the increased pressure will force water out of the opening, thus further decreasing time available for recovery (GL 87-12, 88-17; Diablo Canyon April 10, 1987); air ingestion will cause erroneous level indication (it should be noted that in the Diablo Canyon event, RHR pumps were able to handle a few percent air ingestion). c) maintenance activities may cause loss of redundancy during shutdown (IEB 80-12, Davis Besse, April 19, 1980). d) service water problems may cause loss of RHR (IEC 81-11, GL 89-13; Brunswick, a BWR, Dec 8, 1980 -- SW train A in maintenance, B not aligned because a expected to be repaired before boiling reached, A train repair took too long).
2) Steam void generation during depressurization. Hot metal out of the main flow path. Pressurizer level increases suddenly. Steam can interfere with heat removal. (IEC 81-10, 80-15; Crystal River 3,'April 21, 1981, during cold shutdown; McGuire 1, June 1981, during heatup; also St. Lucie 1, June 11, 1980 during full power -- loss of CCW flow to RCPs causes reactor trip -- cooldown for a few hours until rise in press. level. Problems lead to eventual use of LPSI)
3) Condensate booster pumps can be used for secondary, but need to depressurize first (GL 88-20)
4) Steam binding of AFW pumps. Due to leakage past isolation valves of hot water from the MFW. IEB 85-01, GL 88-03; Crystal River 3 1982 & 1983; Robinson 2, 1981 through 1983; D. C. Cook, 1981; McGuire 2, 1984; Catawba 1, Nov. 1984)
5) Water hammer can disable important safety systems. (GL 86-07; San Onofre l, Nov. 21, 1985, 60%

power, loss of all ac power for 4 min followed by a severe water hammer which caused a steam leak, damage to plant equipment and loss of feedwater for 3 min; caused by check valve failure)

6) Overfill of steam generators, overcooling, overheating-- obvious concerns (GL 81-28, 81-16, 83-37)
7) Low temperatureoverpressurization. (GL 88-11; the criticallimits and the operatingwindow had been changed recently-- to make it more difficult).
8) Boron dilution events during hot standby (only 15 mins available btw. an alarm and loss of shutdown margin)
9) Control rod withdrawal with only one RCP operating in hot standby may violate DNBR (for W plants

-- FSAR says 2 RCPs operating in hot standby, but TS allows only one -- OK for most accidents except uncontrolled rod withdrawal; GL 86-13)

10) Sump screen blockage. Obvious concern, maybe more so in shutdown. Plants most vulnerable are the ones with small debris screen area ( < 100 sq. ft), high ECCS recirc. pump requirements(> 8000 gpm)

B-11 NUREG/CR-6144

11) Control of heavy loads. Suny did a load drop analysis to satisfy requirements (GL 85-11).
12) Loss of shutd~wn margin during refueling operations. Baltimore Gas & Electric presented this analysis for its Calvert Cliffs units, in March of 1987. It shows that at some intermediate positions during refueling, and assuming clustering of higher enrichment fresh fuel for the extended cycle, criticality can occur. (GL 89-03).
13) Pressurizer surge line movement and deformation due to thermal stratification. This occurs during heatup, cooldown and also steady state, due to stratification of hot water flowing from the pressurizer and the layer of "cold" water from the hot leg in the pressurizer surge line (IEB 88-11; Trojan observed unexpected movement of PSL at each refueling since 1982, with the "latest" one actually touching the restraints and causing plastic deformation; Beaver Valley 2 also noticed the PSL movement and the snubber movement during power ascension).
14) Possible loss of pumps (e.g. RHR pumps) in miniflow conditions. The stronger pump will cause deadheadiilg of the weaker pump (2 pumps in parallel with a common miniflow line). The capacity of line may not be enough to support even one pump miniflow (IEB 88-04)
15) Damage to fuel assemblies during refueling. Observed extensive damage to grid straps in W fuel assemblies, caused by hitting diagonally neighboring assembly during insertion (IEC 80-13, Salem 1, LER 79-44).

NUREG/CR-6144 B-12

  • Generic Letters of Interest to Surry Shutdown Study 81-07: Control of Heavy Loads, also GL 85-11. The response should include use of electrical interlocks or mechanical stops, single failure proof cranes and load drop analysis. The last one was done at Surry, and the areas analyzed were the spent fuel pool area and the containment building. Boron dilution events during hot standby. 15 min available between the first alarm and loss of all shutdown margin.

81-16: Overfilling of steam generators 81-22: eves leak at H.B. Robinson plant -- inadvertent operation of charging pumps. 6000 gal in letdown train of eves. Inconsistency between tech specs and safety analysis (in 3 loop W plants). FSAR assumes 2 RePs in operation in Mode 3 (hot standby). Tech specs say one is OK. With only one pump, an uncontrolled withdrawal of the control bank from the subcritical condition may cause violation of DNBR criteria.

86-07: Water hammer and loss of power at San Onofre. This occurred at 60% power. All 5 check valves were disabled.

85-22: Post LOeA sump screen blockage. The plants that are most vulnerable are the ones with: - small debris screen area ( < 100 ft**2) - high Eees recirculation pumping requirements (>8,000 gpm) -

small NPSH margins ( < 1-2 ft of water).

85-16: High boron concentration. At Indian Point 2, all 3 SI pumps were frozen with crystallized H3B03.

Boron injection tank(BIT) has a high concentration of boric acid (in case of a steam line break).

Surry 1 & 2 have requested to remove the BIT or reduce the concentration to 2,000 ppm. The request was granted.

85-13: Davis Besse loss of main and auxiliary feedwater 85-09: Generic W modifications for reactor trip system. Require at power testing of undervoltage and shunt trip attachments.

85-07: Inadvertent boron dilution events. 110% pressure in the RHR. Instrumentation is not required.

85-02: SGTR prevention. TV camera for loose parts and foreign objects -- after any secondary side modifications and eddy current testing.

89-21: USis and GSis:

water hammer SG tube integrity A-31 RHR shutdown requirements A-49 pressurized thermal shock A-47 control systems: overftll protection, overcooling, overheating transients. Surry has 2 out of 3 logic, with one channel used both for control and protection. MFW isolated by closing the MFW isolation valves and tripping the MFW pumps.

APPENDIX D.1 Bayesian Analysis of Time to Mid-Loop

  • D-3 I

D.1 Bayesian Analysis of Time to Mid-loop This Appendix summarizes a Bayesian analysis of three quantities:

  • the time-to-mid-loop (POS 6)
  • the time-to-second mid-loop (POS 10)
  • the duration of mid-loop (POS 6 and POS 10)

Note that in all three cases, the random variable is assumed to be a shifted Iognormal, i.e., the time to mid-loop T = t + t', where t' is the lower bound for T and t is lognonnal distributed with density function given by (using the T50,q formulation) exp{.!.(ln(t/TsJl l 2

~at 2 a r The following lists the time shift for each of the POSs:

POS t' Pos 6 - Refueling outage POS 6 - Drained Maintenance Pos 10 - Regulating outage 2 days 13 hours1.50463e-4 days <br />0.00361 hours <br />2.149471e-5 weeks <br />4.9465e-6 months <br /> 2088 hours These times were estimated using the operating procedures and past plant experience. The rest of this appendix deals with the distibution oft and shows the results for T. Reference [1] is a paper that documents the method used in the analysis in more detail.

TIME TO MID-LOOP DISTRIBlIT.ION Data for the time to mid-loop consist of population data and Surry-specific data. Regarding ~he former, it is assumed that the time-to-mid-loop for each plant is lognonnally distributed with parameters µ and u, and that these parameters vary from plant to plant. The population data (generally) consist of experts' "best estimates" and "lower bounds" for each plant-specific distribution. (In some cases, only a "best estimate" is provided.) The "best estimates" are interpreted as medians; the "lower bounds" are interpreted as 5th percentiles.

Appendix D.3 Recovery Curves for Accident Initiating Events D-16

Appendix D.3 Recovery Curves for Accident Initiating Events The data that was used in estimating the frequency of initiating events show that the initiating event can be terminated by eliminating their causes. In the event trees, recovery of the following initiating events was modeled as top events in the event trees:

Loss of Offsite Power Loss of 4 KV Bus Loss of CCW Inadvertent Safety Injection Loss of Vital Bus Loss of Instrument Air Recovery of offsite power is discussed in section 4.3.1. The recovery of the rest of the above initiating events was analyzed using a single stage bayesian analysis. The computer code BAYES3D written by N.

Siu was used. The recovery time is assumed to be lognormally distributed. The prior distribution of the parameters µ and u is assumed to be inversely proportional to u. The likelihood function is the density function of the lognormal distribution. Tables D.3-1 to D.3-5 list the input data and results.

APPENDIX D.4 Assessment of Uncertainty Parameters of Basic Events

    • D-23

Appendix D.4 Assessment of Uncertainty Panuneters of Basic Events Frequency of Outages The uncertainty of the frequency of outages was estimated judgmentally. Table D.4-1 lists the characteristic parameters of the outage frequencies. In chapter 9, the point estimates of the frequencies were calculated at using the Surry plant experience. They are taken to be the mean frequencies of the outages. It was the Surry experience that the time between 2 refueling outages sometimes is as longer as 2 years.

Therefore, a frequency of 0.5 per year is quite possible to occur. It was taken to be the 25th percentile of the distnbution of the frequency of refueling. That is, the probability that the time between 2 refueling outages is longer than 2 years is 0.25. A lognormal distnbution is assumed with these parameters. In the case of drained maintenance, it is the plant experience that a unit may go to drained maintenance twice a year. Therefore, 3 times a year is taken to be an upper bound (95th percentile) of the frequency of drained maintenance.

Another parameter used in the quantification is the fraction(FRAC-POSlO) of time that the plant goes to mid-loop operation after refueling is completed in a refueling outage. The review of plant experience found that in 3 out of 6 refueling outages the plant went to the second mid-operation. Therefore, the mean of this fraction is taken to be 0.5. It is assumed to be uniformly distnbuted between O and 1.

Conditional Probability of a Time Window Given That the Initiating Event Occurred in a POS In order to correctly determine the success criteria for the mitigating functions, the time window approach was developed. Given that the accident initiating event had occurred in a POS, the probability that it occurred in a given time window was determined in section 9.3 using data colloected on time to mid-loop and duration of mid-loop. The uncertainty in the time when the accident occurs is reflected in the probabilities of the time windows. Therefore, the conditional probabilities of the time windows take on single values with no uncertainty parameter. They are listed in Table D.4-2 for the accident initiating events. For all initiating events except over draining to mid-loop(RHR2A), the distribution of the time when the accident occurs is calculated as the time to mid-loop plus the duration of mid-loop times an uniform distribution. For RHR2A, the time when the initiating event occurs is the same as the time to mid-loop.

Maintenance Unavailability Two types of maintenance events are used, the ones adopted from NUREG-1150 study, and those estimated using plant outage data. For those maintenance evetns of NUREG-1150, the uncertainty data of NUREG-1150 was used Chapter 9 documents the maintenance data collected from the plant. The uncertainty of these maintenance unavailabilities was derived by judgement using the following rules:

1. If the mean is small, a lognormal distribution with some EF is assumed.
2. If the mean is close to 1, a uniform distribution is assumed. If the mean is larger than 0.5, the upper bound is set to 1. If the mean is lower than 0.5, the upper bound is set to twice the mean.

11. ABSTRACT /200 words or less)

During 1989, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) initiated an extensive program to carefully examine the potential risks during low power and shutdown operations. The program includes two parallel projects being performed by Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL) and Sandia National Laboratories (SNL). Two plants, Sutry (pressurized water reacto.r) and Grand Gulf (boiling water reactor), were selected as the plants to be studied. The objectives of the program are to assess the risks of severe accidents initiated during plant operational states other than full power operation and to compare the estimated core damage frequencies, important accident sequences and other qualitative and quantitative results with those accidents initiated during full power operation as assessed in NUREG-1150. The objective of this report is to document the approach utilized in the Surry plant and discuss the results obtained. A parallel report for the Grand Gulf plant is prepared by SNL. This study shows that the core-damage frequency during mid-loop operation at the Surry plant is comparable to that of power operation. We recognize that there is very large uncertainty in the human error probabilities in this study. This study identified that only a few procedures are available for mitigating accidents that may occur during shutdown.

Procedures written specifically for shutdown accidents would be useful.
