t OPERATIONAL

SUMMARY

APRIL 1995 IWlL1 Unit 1 generated 850,300 megawatthours (MWh) (gross) electrical power during April with a capacity factor of 102.7 percent. Unit 1 operated at near 100 percent power during April.

Mil L 2 Unit 2 generated 232,890 megawatthours (NWh) (gross) electrical power during April with a capacity factor of 28.3 percent. On March 8, 1995, Unit 2 experienced a leak on the 6B extraction steam line inside the condenser. The leak caused the pressure in the 6B feedwater heater to drop 20 percent. On April 3, the 6B level control valve was noted to be near full open, and a " roar" in the "B" condenser was discovered. This was an indication that the leak size had increased. A subsequent water hammer occurred on the AB drain to the 5B heater, resulting in a valve body failure. The unit was taken off-line. An inspection of the "B" condenser identified that four of the six No. 5 extraction bellows, both No. 6 extraction bellows, and one No. 7 extraction bellows were damaged.

A similar extent of condition was identified on the "A" and "C" condensers when they were inspected.

Af ter repairs were completed, Unit 2 was taken critical on April 23 at 0245 EDT and was tied to the grid on April 24 at 1153 EDT. Unit 2 was operating at 99 percent on April 27 at 2113 EDT.

On April 28,1995, at 2031 EDT, an automatic turbine and subsequent reactor trip was generated by the main generator neutral overvoltage relay. The cause of the trip has been attributed to a bus duct gasket )

that came loose and came in contact with the energized electrical bus 1 leading from the main generator to the C phase, designated spare, main transformer. The gasket provided a path for electrical leakage to ground that was sensed by the main generator neutral overvoltage relays terminating electrical generation.

Unit 2 was taken critical on April 30 at 1459 EDT and was at I approximately 14 percent reactor power at the end of the month. The l Unit 2 generator remained off-line at the end of April.
