On July 11, 2016, at approximately 0430 CD … On July 11, 2016, at approximately 0430 CDT, while Unit 1 was operating at 100% power, the 1A Reactor Protection System (RPS) Motor Generator (M/G) set tripped causing a loss of the A RPS bus. This caused the complete actuation of the Division 1 (outboard) primary containment isolation logic. The isolation logic actuation resulted in successful closure of the Division 1 primary containment isolation valves. This was an event that resulted in the actuation of a general containment isolation signal affecting more than one system. However, as this event meets the definition of an invalid actuation (i.e., not a response to an actual plant parameter exceeding a trip set-point), this notification is being made in accordance with 10CFR50.73(a)(2)(iv)(A) in lieu of a Licensee Event Report.</br>In response to the trip of the 1A RPS M/G Set, operators swapped the A RPS bus to the alternate power supply using the applicable response procedure. The containment isolation signal was reset and the systems were restored to their normal lineup. Reactor power was not affected by this event. All safety related equipment controlled by the affected primary containment isolation circuits operated as designed.</br>The 1A RPS M/G Set trip was due to a blown power fuse for the 1A RPS M/G Set. This was the result of worn insulation on one of the generator output leads. The generator output leads were repaired and rerouted to prevent future problems on 07/15/16. Restoration of the normal power supply to the 1A RPS function was completed on 7/19/16.</br>The licensee informed the NRC Resident Inspector.ensee informed the NRC Resident Inspector. +
