SUMMARY

l MONTH MARCH 1996 The Hope Creek Generating Station commenced start up after the Sixth Refueling Outage at 0627 hours0.00726 days <br />0.174 hours <br />0.00104 weeks <br />2.385735e-4 months <br /> on  ;

j March 18,1996 when the operators moved the mode switch to " start up." Criticality was achieved at 1350 l hours on March I8,1996. The initial synchronization of the unit was at 0141 hours0.00163 days <br />0.0392 hours <br />2.331349e-4 weeks <br />5.36505e-5 months <br /> on March 25,1996. At l 1025 hours0.0119 days <br />0.285 hours <br />0.00169 weeks <br />3.900125e-4 months <br /> the generator was removed from senice and the post-outage overspeed test was successfully performed. At 1219 hours0.0141 days <br />0.339 hours <br />0.00202 weeks <br />4.638295e-4 months <br /> on March 25,1996 the unit was resynchron;2cd and power ascension resumed.

The outage was officially ended when 100% power was achieved at 2220 hours0.0257 days <br />0.617 hours <br />0.00367 weeks <br />8.4471e-4 months <br /> on March 29,1996. This resulted in unplanned off-line energy losses of 471398.7 MWHRS (96-04) for the outage extension, planned off-line energy losses of 174161.2 MWHRS (96-05) for the start-up, and planned on-line losses of 77460.1 l MWHRS (96-06) for the power ascension.

l A stuck TIP probe, rod adjustments, and weekly turbine valve survcillances occurred between 0805 hours0.00932 days <br />0.224 hours <br />0.00133 weeks <br />3.063025e-4 months <br /> on March 30,1996 and 1318 hours0.0153 days <br />0.366 hours <br />0.00218 weeks <br />5.01499e-4 months <br /> on March 31,1996. These activities caused 2187.2 MWHRS of unplanned energy losses (96-08) and 150 MWHRS of planned energy losses for the surveillance (96-07).

On March 31,1996 between 1630 hours0.0189 days <br />0.453 hours <br />0.0027 weeks <br />6.20215e-4 months <br /> and 1800 hours0.0208 days <br />0.5 hours <br />0.00298 weeks <br />6.849e-4 months <br /> power was reduced to remove 6C Feedwater Heater 1 from senice for maintenance. This resulted in 39.1 MWHRS of unplanned losses. (96-09) l j As of March 31,1996 the unit had been on-line for seven days. l 1
