* The following information was provided … </br>* The following information was provided by the licensee via email:</br>This 60-day telephone notification is being made per the reporting requirements specified by 10 CFR 50.73(a)(2)(iv)(A) and 10 CFR 50.73(a)(1) to describe an invalid actuation of the Reactor Protection System (RPS). On October 20, 2021, at approximately 0705 hours Central Daylight Time (CDT), Browns Ferry, Unit 1, 1B RPS bus unexpectedly lost power. The loss of the bus resulted in a half scram, automatic Primary Containment Isolation System (PCIS) Groups 2, 3, 6, and 8 isolations, and Trains A, B, and C SBGT (Stand-By Gas Treatment) and A CREV (Control Room Emergency Ventilation system) started. All systems responded as expected. At 0720 hours CDT, the bus was placed on the alternate power supply and the half scram and PCIS isolations were reset.</br>Plant conditions which initiate PCIS Group 2 actuations are Reactor Vessel Low Water Level (Level 3) or High Drywell Pressure. The PCIS Group 3 actuations are initiated by Reactor Vessel Low Water Level (Level 3) or Reactor Water Cleanup Area High Temperature. The PCIS Group 6 actuations are initiated by Reactor Vessel Low Water Level (Level 3), High Drywell Pressure, or Reactor Building Ventilation Exhaust High Radiation (Reactor Zone or Refuel Zone). The PCIS Group 8 actuations are initiated by Low Reactor Vessel Water Level (Level 3) or High Drywell Pressure. At the time of the event, these conditions did not exist; therefore, the actuation of the PCIS was invalid. </br>The cause of the RPS bus loss was a trip of the underfrequency relay due to drift of the relay setpoint. The relay was replaced and 1B RPS bus was returned to the normal power supply on October 21, 2021, at 0510 hours CDT.</br>There were no safety consequences or impact to the health and safety of the public as a result of this event. </br>This event was entered into the Corrective Action Program as Condition Report 1729592. </br>The NRC Resident Inspector has been notified of this event.</br> Inspector has been notified of this event.
