On August 11, 2014 at approximately 1028 h … On August 11, 2014 at approximately 1028 hours with Unit 3 at approximately 100% reactor power, a manual reactor trip was initiated in response to a loss of instrument air (IA). The Auxiliary Feedwater System automatically initiated as designed. The unit was subsequently stabilized in Mode 3 with IA restored. An automatic safety injection (SI) actuation occurred as a result of main steamline high differential pressure. High head safety injection (HHSI) pumps, residual heat removal (RHR) pumps, and emergency diesel generators (EDG) automatically started as designed due to the SI signal. Based on plant conditions, the HHSI and RHR pumps did not inject into the reactor coolant system. The running compressor was unloaded inadvertantly at approximately 1020 hours and the standby compressors started but did not load due to a latent design error in the start logic. Although the standby compressors were restarted and loaded by approximately 1029 hours, IA decreased below the pressure required for the reactor trip. The SI actuation was caused by inadequate control of primary plant parameters during a loss of IA to containment. Corrective actions include: Removing an unneeded permissive in the standby compressor control logic which prevented the compressor from loading, and revising the loss of IA procedure to provide additional guidance on control of pressurizer level and pressure when IA is lost.urizer level and pressure when IA is lost. +
