-t didsel gene rator " disabled" alarm has annunciated. tespond to the diesel venerator " disabled" alatm.

All communication and activitles must be performed in accordance with current, approved procedures.

-The alarm must be acknowledged and its salidity determined.

A plant equipment operator must be dispatched to

-perform activities locally. as necessary. MW0s must be initiated as needed.

INFORMATION Tbc following diesel generator " disabled" alarms are covered in this instructional unit:

1.

DGIA DISABLED LOW PRESS STARTING AIR 2.

DGIA DISABLED DC START POWER FAILL'RE 3.

DGI A DISABLED ENGINE CONTROL IN 10 CAL 4.

DGIA DISABLED NONRESET OF EMERGENCY TRIP 5.

DGIA DISABLED DG CKT BRKR INOPERABLE 6.

DGIA DISABLED MAINTENANCE LOCKOUT 7.

DGIA DISABLED GEN CONTROL PWR FAILL'RE These alarms indicate conditions that could lead to the inability of t.he diesel generator to start and load automatically when required to in an emergency.

Some of these alarms indicate that the diesel generator will not start due -to interlocks, l'pon receipt of any one of these alaims, obtain Plant Vogtle Annunciator

_ Response Procedure 17035-1 (17638-1 foi DGIB) and acknowledge the' alarm.

Depress the SILENCE push button to silence the alarm horn.

When responding to any one of the di-sel generator alarms:

1.

Acknowledge the alarm. When m Lw+1rdging the alarm, note any other alarm that may have annunciateil.vsociated with this alaim.

2.

Investigate-the alarm.

log, r02 DGIA DISABI.ED LOW PRESS STARTING AIR This alarm will activate at a starting air pressute of 215 psi, decreasing The normal air pressure for each teceiver is 225 to 250 psig. The diesel engine has a starting interlock of 150 psi starting air pressure (the starting air pressure must be greater than or equal to 150 psi in order tot the diesel generator to start). This interlock applies to emergency starts (manual or SIAS),

With less than 150 psig starting air pressure, it is still-possible to attempt a notmal start of the engine.

It is daubtful that the engine would start with statting air pressure less than 90 psig.

Acknowledge the alarm.

Note the time the alarm annunciated and inform the SRO of the time.

Investigate the alarm.

r Direct an 0A0 to check the starting air pressure at 1-PI-9052 and 1-Pl-9056 on the engine control panel to determine the system that is affected.

Direct the OA0 to check local gauges 1-pi 4060 and 9064 for starting air pressure and compare the readings with the ones on the engine control panel.

Direct the OAO to ensure that the starting air compressor breakers on the MCC are closed and the handswitch indicating light '(amber) is illuminated.

Direct the OA0 to check for low oil level in the air compressor using the dipstick and to observe for air leaks. Also. direct the OAO to check air receiver isolation valves (765 and 769) are open.

Take corrective action.

'If low oil level is observed, oil sh"old ha added before starting the air compressor.

Initiate an MWO for r h.

aiI addi, tion.

The starting air compressors will trip on a low oil

."l-Direct the OAO to reset the breaker if t ripped, and to reset H.

Note the time the alath, occurred and report this to the SRO.

Investlaate the alarm.

Dispatch an OAO to assist in verif ying that the diesel generator is operable and that the alarm is valid.

If the ala rn: is valid, the diesel 1

generator must be declared inoperable from the time the alarm annunciates, i

The OAO must check the control air pr essur e gauge on the engine control 7

panel (normally 60 psig). Direct the OAO to check-for DC power failure at the engine control panel.

Normally, the thtee white lights indicating A.

B. and C power available are. lit.

This alarm will be present if there is no "A" or "B" 125VDC control power for the diesel generator control circuits.

The A and P circuits are Class 1E: if both are unavailable. the 4

l-diesel generator will not start.

"C" power is Non-Class IE power and a

loss of "C" power is not one of the causes of this alarm.

The diesel generator should still start with one of the two circuits available, but 1

not in a normal configuration. Generally, if "A" power is not. available.

several alarms will not be operaole.

If "B" power is not available, some of the emergency stop features will not function (including manual).

These conditions can lead to equipment damage: therefore, the cause of "A" i

"B" power loss must be found and immediately corrected.

If the "A" power waite

' light _is not lit and the two. breaker swi t ches f or "A"' power are closedi direct the OAO to check distribution panel 1ADil.- breaker 72-11.

If the "B" power white light is not lit and. the two breaker switches are closed, i

tlirect the '0A0 to check dist ribut lon p uml IAD12.. breaker 72-11.

Direct the OAO to check for tripped breaker f or "A" and "B" power on the f ront of the engine control panel. (Train A M for this example.)

Take corrective action.

If-one of the DC breakers at the encino control panel has tripped.

direct k

the OAO to teset the breaker and s m i f >

that the white light is illuminated. then reset the alarm.

!! 'he OA0 reports that the breakers for "A" or "B" power are closed at . -noine control panel. yet the white light (s) are not lit. direct the o m -

Direct the OAO to verify the position of the control switch at the genetator control panel, l'or Train A this control switch is HS1516, and a red indicating light above the switch is lit when the switch is in LOCAL, NOTE: Any time the diesel generator LOCAL / REMOTE control switch is; in the LOCAL position the diesel generator is not available-for emercenev start and, therefore, is not in standby readiness.

If the control switch is placed in LOCAL, the diesel generator will not start automatically on receipt of a safety injection actuation signal-(SIAS).

The diesel generator will not he in standby readiness.

If the control switch is in LOCAL. direct the OAO to determine why it has been placed in this position.

Direct the OAO to observe the atea for the presence of any personnel and to ask if they Lknow why the control switch has been placed in LOCAL.

NOTE; Indiscriminate changing of switches for the diesel generator must never be done without p t i. r approval from the control room.

Take corrective action.

Procedure 10007-C describes how permission is obtained to allow t ert t ing of -a lockout.

The shif t' 56pervisor may authorize resetting of a DC overcurrent telay one time..without investigation,

. A telay tar get may be. reset if the target is. showing with the equipment is running. Permission must be obtained from the SS.

If the nlarm is-prevent, and the diesel generator tripped due to one or more of the thtee 187 differential relays detecting a fault. verifv it by directing the OAO to:

a.

Check that the DCIA TRIP GEN v1FF alarm has annunciatwi on the anuunciator panel b.

Check for target Ilags on the 187 relay for each phase c.

Check that the 186A lockout switch has tripped over to the TRIP position.

.The cause of-the differential alarm causing the diesel generator to emergency trip must be determined by Maintenatice and corrected before an attempt is made to reset the diesel generator.

Af ter.the -causes have be u cor rected. - the EMERGENCY TRIP RESET - push" button will be depressed af ter the dif ferential (187) t. rip primary has had its targets reset and the 186A lockout relay has been reset. The emergency reset pushbutton is-on the engine control panel; the 0A0

.would normally-reset the emergency stop.

,The DGIA TRIP OVERSPEED alarm indicates the diesel generator tripped

-due to an overspeed.

In this case, direct-an 0A0 to check the governor for loss of oil or Imse or damaged linkage.
