A reactor scram occurred at full power due … A reactor scram occurred at full power due to either a main turbine trip or loss of feedwater (cause is still under investigation). All rods fully inserted. RCIC started as expected but tripped shortly thereafter on a preliminary indication of low suction pressure. The Digital Feedwater System backup motor driven feedwater pump did not function as required and reactor water level decreased to level 2 ( 130 inches). High Pressure Core Spray (HPCS) started automatically at level 2 and restored water level. Currently reactor water level is at 188 inches and reactor pressure is at 927 PSI. Decay heat is being removed via the turbine bypass valves. No other significant equipment was out of service at the time of the scram. The scram had no impact on offsite or onsite power availability.</br>The licensee attempted to restore RCIC a second time and experienced another trip. In addition, the licensee attempted to restore the digital feedwater and was unsuccessful. Feedwater continues to be supplied as needed via the HPCS while the licensee attempts to restore RCIC and Digital Feedwater System.</br>The licensee notified the NRC Resident Inspector.ensee notified the NRC Resident Inspector. +
