MONTHLY

SUMMARY

South Texas Project Unit 2 began the reporting period operating at full power. On July 7, at 2312 an automatic reactor trip occurred due to the failure of an inverter that caused the distribution panel to lose power. The loss of the distribution panel caused the main feed water regulating valves to fully open.

This resulted in the water level in the steam generators to increase, which caused the turbine and subsequently the reactor to trip. The inverter failure was caused by a fuse failure that resulted from a voltage spike in the electrical system that provides power to the distribution panel. The fuse was replaced and the unit was returned to service on July 9, at 1414. Full power was achieved on July 10, at 1130.
