50/395 UNIT V. C. SUMMER 1 DATE 06/02/92 COMPLETED BY J. W. HALTlWANGER TELEPHONE (803) 345-4297 MAY 1992 Virgil C. Summer Nuclear Station operated at approximately 100% power for the first 10 days of May.

Power was reduced on May 11 to repair a secondary steam leak on a "B" steam generator manway. The main generator breaker was opened at 0418 on May 12 Mode 3 was entered at 0600..The plant was cooled down to Mode 5.

During this shutdown, several moisture separator reheater tubes were plugged.

On May 20 at 0415 hours0.0048 days <br />0.115 hours <br />6.861772e-4 weeks <br />1.579075e-4 months <br />, the plant entered Mode 2.

During troubleshooting of a power range drawer, the power to a intermediate range channel sharing a common power supply was momentarily interrupted. The reactor tripped from approximately 3% power.

On May 21 at 0008 hours9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br />, the plant again entered Mode 2. _In preparation for connecting the generator to the grid, with feedwater (FW) temperature at 250*F and decreasing, reactor power was increased to approximately 30% with the steam dump to the condenter in order to maintain FW flow above the minimum 13% FW isolation setpoint (FW isolation occurs when FW temperature is less than 225'F with flow less than 13%). While the turbine was rolling up, the main steam power operated relief valves (PORV) cycled open and closed several times due to main steam system overpressure. As a result of the PORV oscillations. FW flow to "C" SG decreased below 13%, and before it recovered to greater than the 17% low flow reset, FW temperature dropped below 225'F causing FW isolation to "C" SG. An attempt to reduce power to shift FW to the-SG to.EFW system was made but "C" SG. level fell below the lo SG 1evel reactor trip setpoint before this could be accomplished, and a reactor trip occurred from 9% power. Subsequent testing revealed that the main condenser dump valves were'not opening fully; the valve controls were repaired.

On May 22 at 0947 hours0.011 days <br />0.263 hours <br />0.00157 weeks <br />3.603335e-4 months <br />, the reactor was taken critical. The main generator breaker was closed at 1542 hours0.0178 days <br />0.428 hours <br />0.00255 weeks <br />5.86731e-4 months <br /> that day.

The plant operated at approximately 100% power from May 24 through the end of the month.
