EVENT DESCRIPTION AND PROBABLE CONSEQUENCES h lo l2l l During steady state operation and routine 115 KV breaker exercising (South Oswego l gj l Substation), a ground directional relay caused the opening of a breaker on the l l0 l4 l l alternate 115 KV line (Lighthouse Hill Subctation). The coincident opening of these l o 3 l breakers resulted in the removal of all off-site power and placed the plant in a l l0 l6 l l limiting Condition for operation as per Tech. Specs. 3.6.3e(2). Concurrent with the l lo l7l l loss of off-site power, automatic start-up of both diesel generators occurred as l 1018l l designed, followed by the restoration of off-site power approximately @EE ATTACHED SHHET) 80 7 8 9 DE CODE S BC E COMPONENT CODE SU8C DE SU E 7

.LER 82-04 EVENT DESCRIPTION' AND PROBABLE CONSEQUENCES (Continued) 10 seconds after the loss occurred. This' restoration of off-site power came about due to the closing of the Oswego-NMP1 breaker.- Subsequently,.the diesel generators were secured. The safety concerns of this event were minimal since more than the required number of diesel generators came into operation, and because of the very short length of tirse (approx. . 10 seconds) th'at off-site

< power was removed.
