Contrary to the above, on June 27, 1993, the equipment tagout for Feedwater Heater FW-15A was inadequate and unsafe due to the failure to isolate the extraction steam supply to the heater while replacing a relief valve on the condensate side. This failure to isolate steam resulted in the condensate, which was left in the heater, turning into steam and blowing out of the relief valve's open connection.
