As of the first of September DAEC had entered Day 34 ofits scheduled 59 day maintenance and refueling outage.

Feedwater pump reassembly was in process. In-vessel inspections of the Core Shroud Welds and Core Spray Spargers had been completed. Divers had finished the Fecdwater Sparger repairs. Secondary Containment had been returned to senice, and the Main Turbine work was progressing well. All diaphragms were back in place, the inner casings were installed, and the hood was reinstalled. The control vahrs were reassembled, the bypass valve repair completed, and the EHC (E:cetro-Hydraulic Control) system work nearly completed.

During the second week of September Control Rod Drive (CRD) system repairs were completed and the CRD system restarted. The 'A' RHR (Residual Heat Removal) repairs were finishing up, and the system was made ready to go into 'A' side shutdown cooling. The Ce.rc reload began at 10:00 09/05/93 and finished on 09/11/93 at 24:00. The 'A' and 'D' Main Steam Isolation Valve (MSIV) repairs were in progress.

The reactor internals, reactor head, insulation head, and drywell head were all installed during the third week of September in preparation for performance of the Integrated Leak Rate Test (ILRT). Core Spray, RHR, RHR Senice Water, and Standby Diesel Generator maintenance were all completed.

The ILRT was performed September 19 - 22. "As-left" leakage was 0.25 Ydday or 0.1 L. After adjustments for a

Local Leak Rate Test improvements, the "as-found" containment leakage was 0.51 Ydday or 0.25 L. Following a

the ILRT, over-speed testing of the High Pressure Coolant injection (HPCI) and Reactor Core Isolation Cooling.

(RCIC) pumps was completed. The Class I Leak Rate Test (hydro) inspections were completed at approximately 1000 psig and revealed the necessity to perform a few funher repairs. The reactor was depressurized and vessel tempemture dropped below 212

  • F, returning the vessel to a cold shutdown condition.

At the end of September repairs were continuing on the inboard Reactor Water Cleanup Isolation valve, a Main Steam Line Drain inboard isolation valve, the HPCI stop valve limit switch, and 4160 KV breakers. These repairs have delayed start-up beyond the originally planned September 26 start-up date.

On September 21,1993, the plant was in cold shutdown Ibr refueling when a partial Primary Containment Isolation System (PCIS) Group 4 isolation occurred ('A' shutdown cooling). This event occurred while transferring Reactor Protection System (RPS) power supply sources from the alternate source to the 'A' RPS motor generator.

Isolation valves were, per procedure, decnergized open during the transfer to prevent unwanted isolations.

Following the transfer, PCIS Divisions (I and 2) were reset and annunciators PCIS GROUPS (1 through 5)

ISOLATIONS were verified rescL The operator was then directed, by procedure, to recnergize the shutdown cooling suction and inject valves. Upon closing the breaker to the 'A' residual heat removal inboard inject valve, the valve went closed, isolating shutdown cooling. This occurred due to the isolation signal being locked in for this valve by design. There was no measurable increase in reactor vessel temperatures. The valve was reopened within nineteen seconds. The procedure was resised to give direction to reset the locked-in signal prior to recnergizing the valve. LER 93-07 On Septenmer 16,1993 the 'B' Standby Diesel Genemtor (SBDG) output breaker,1 A411, failed to close during the performance of the Loss of Offsite Power - Loss of Coolant Accident (LOOP-LOCA) surveillance test. The cause was an improper clearance between the breaker mechanism on the Standby Transformer feeder breaker, I A401, to essential bus 1 A4. This improper clearance disabled one of the closure permissives for 1 A411. The corrective actions included readjusting the gap between the breaker plunger and the stationary auxiliary switch to within the specifications intended by the breater vendor. LER 93-08 (pending)
