Subject:
LIGHTkiNG STRIKE At5:30a.m.(CDT), June 27, 1986, while operating at 68 percent power, a lightning strike caused the unit to automatically trip. The shutdown was due to a fcilure of some primary system instruments, causing the reactor protection system to trip the unit on
, over-temperature differential temperature.
The instrumentation affected by the lightning were: onetransmitter(DLoopaccumulator i level) and several-temperature detectors in three of four hotlegs on the Reactor Coolant i l' System.
The lightning also caused the actuation of the overvoltage protection system for seven out of 10 rod control power supplies. Although the lightning actuated the power supplies, the control rods may have already tripped because of the over-temperature differential temperature trip, All other safety systems functioned as designed. The unit is currently in cold shutdown to (e)
(/
replace the temperature detectors. Startup is tentatively scheduled for July 5,1986. The Resident inspectors _will follow the licensee's course of action.
The State of Illinois will be notified.
Region !!! (Chicago) was first infonned of the lightning strike at 7:30 a.m., (CDT),
June 27, 1986. Tnis information is current as of 1:30 p.m., (CDT), June 30, 1986..
