It is suspected that the cause of this, and possibly other problems, is in the safe-guards equipment cabinet (SEC).

The entire chassis of the SEC has been changed several times with no positive results.

Numerous tests, investigations, and manufacturer 6 consultations were conducted.

At the date of this report, the possibility of a signal being induced into the circuit by the No. 22 primary water make-up pump, modifying the 15 volt logic voltage, is being investigated.
