MONTHLY OPERATING EXPERIENCE l UNIT 1 l

SEPTEMBER 1996  !

I l

September 1 The Unit operated at a nominal value of 100% output during the entire report period. I through September 30 l

l In addition to the above, the following Analog Rod Position Indication (ARPI) problems were encountered i during the report period and are being reported as required by Technical Specifications.

September 21 The analog rod position indication (ARPI) for control rod H-2 was declared through inoperable at 0000 hours0 days <br />0 hours <br />0 weeks <br />0 months <br /> due to reading greater than the technical specification limit September 30 of 12 steps. Actual rod position was verified to be within the 12 step limit by obtaining primary detector voltage readings. Troubleshooting activities c~ontinued throughout the remainder of the report period, however, a repair of the ARPI problem for control rod H 2 had not yet been completed by the end of the report period.

September 24 The analog rod position indication (ARPI) for control rod H-10 was declared inoperable at 2010 hours0.0233 days <br />0.558 hours <br />0.00332 weeks <br />7.64805e-4 months <br /> due to reading greater than the technical specification limit

)

of 12 steps. Actual rod position was verified to be within the 12 step limit by obtaining primary detector voltage readings. The limiting condition for operation as specified in the technical specifications was met (a maximum of one ARPI per bank  ;

can be inoperable at any one time) because control rod H-2 is located in control bank l

D and control rod H-10 is located in control bank C.

September 25 After returning to within 12 steps following a recalibration ofits ARPI, control rod H-10 was returned to service at 0925 hours0.0107 days <br />0.257 hours <br />0.00153 weeks <br />3.519625e-4 months <br />.
