ENS 51680 | 24 January 2016 01:10:00 | At 2241 (EST) on 1/23/2016, James A FitzPatrick inserted a manual scram from 89 percent power due to lowering intake level. Following the successful scram, a residual transfer occurred, resulting in a loss of the non-vital busses, loss of all Circulating Water Pumps, and a manual closure of the Main Steam Isolation Valves (MSIVs). The cause of the residual transfer is unknown. RPV (Reactor Pressure Vessel) level shrink during the scram resulted in a successful Group 2 isolation. Reactor Vessel (level) and pressure are being maintained with the High Pressure Coolant Injection System which was manually started. A cooldown is in progress. FitzPatrick will proceed to Mode 5 until the cause is identified and corrected. The Emergency Diesel generators auto started as a result of the loss of power to the non-vital busses. Offsite power remained available throughout the event. Operators are controlling pressure manually via the relief valves. FitzPatrick will notify the Public Service Commission of the event. The NRC Resident Inspector was notified. |
