' Report No.:

50-277-75-66 Report Date:

October 21, 1975 l occurrence Date:

October 20, 1975 Facility:

Peach Botton Atomic Power Station R.D.

1, Delta, Pennsylvania 1731h Identification of occurrence:

Y Upscale failure of the "B" logic APRM/RBM flow bias signal from yT-2-2-11CD.

Conditions Prior to occurrence:

)

About 555 power.

Description of Occurrence:

i One of the two inputs to the "B" logic recire flow converter failed

)

upscale.

This upscale failure raised the "B" logie ' APRM and RBM trip points'beyond those limits imposed by the Technical Specifications.

Designation of Apparent Cause of Occurrence:

Second ground on the.recire drive. flow transmitter' signal loop.

' Analysis of Occurrence:

s-This failure inhibited flow bias of the "3" APRM high flux scram, 3

however, scram would have occurred, although at a higher power level 4

I (not more than 120%) and therefore has minimal safety significance.

  • Corrective Action:

A'"3" logic half sera = vas manually inserted until the flow signal could be repaired.

The flow signal was corrected by removing the installed 0

ground.

Loss.cf the remaining accidental ground vill not impare the flow signal to the neutron monitoring system.

Failure Data:

, j.,

'One previous reported as 50-277-75-30.
