CDT), Monticello Nuclear Generating Plant during a review of the Alternate Shutdown System (ASDS) as part of the corrective actions for LER 2005-01, submitted on April 4, 2005 (Event Notification #41436) discovered a second breaker affected by a similar cause as identified in the LER. The Bus 16 source (Breaker 152-609) to Load Center #104 has a similar potential vulnerability with the ASDS isolation design that could result in Load Center #104 being locked out in the event of a Control Room or Cable Spreading Room fire. The Monticello Appendix R Safe Shutdown Analysis for Control Room/Cable Spreading (Room) fire assumes a loss of control of Division I and II equipment from the Control room, however safe shutdown is achieved remotely from the ASDS panel. ASDS design is such that a Control Room/Cable Spreading Room fire would not impede the ability to safely shutdown and maintain the plant in a shutdown condition.</br>Contrary to the ASDS design, it was discovered that an unisolated metering circuit could result in Load Center #104 being locked out in the event of a Control Room/Cable Spreading Room fire. The bus lockout is not isolated by the ASDS transfer switches, therefore, this condition could result in failure of Load Center #104 to re-energize during the implementation of the Shutdown Outside Control Room procedure. ASDS is not required to be operable at this time. </br>As a result of this determination, MNGP will issue a revision to LER 2005-01 to the NRC to reflect the new information.</br>This event is being reported as a potential loss of safety function (10CFR50.72(b)(3)(v)(A,B, and D) and as a degraded or unanalyzed condition (10CFR50.72(b)(3)(ii)(B).
