Some. time.ago an. occurrence at Oconee II, involvingiloss of power _ to.the'.

? customer. electrical' distribution. panel.2kI, resulted in an overpressure greactor trip and loss of the power sources supplied from the 2k1 panel.

^(Loss of 2RI produces an equivalent loss of B&W ICS and NNI systems.)

Those sources supplird by 2kI include the following:

1.

ICS Auto Power 2.

Emergency Steam Generator Level Control 3.

ICS 'dand Power 4.

ICS Emergency Power No. 1 5.

ICS Emergency Power No. 2 This resulted in the following:

1.

No automatic or hand control from the control room.

2.

No control from the emergency shutdown panel.

3.

No operating indicators at the control panel (only RPS variables are available.) or at the shutdown panel.

Culberson to Distribution September 27, 1977 5.

Makeup control valve inoperable, letdown control valve inoperable, bypass valves, startup valves, and main feedwater valves are in-operable. A loss of signal to these valves should result in them positioning at the 50% position.

6., Spray.. valve,andialectromaticLrelief valves on pressurizer are in.

(: operable but,will. remain'in their last position.

Loss of power to the 2k1 power panel board resulted from en unsuccessful attempt to transfer the 2k1 power source from DC Invertors to regulated AC.

The problem reported in the subject SPR is attributable to having all three powers (hand, auto, and emergency) powered from the same power supply.

,Although this problem appears to be. unique to Bailey 721 type equipment,

B&W feels that all customers.up.to TECo (NSS-14).should be alerted to review.

their electrical systems for a potential similar problem, in particular fregarding loss of their class 1-E power. sources (fire, explosion, etc.).

If you have any questions regarding this matter, pl. ease do not hesitate to contact me.
