On March 14 as reported in EN 56409, the HPCI lube oil cooling water supply isolation valve did not electrically stroke open following engagement of manual clutch lever. Specifically, to support the maintenance evolution, electricians declutched the valve actuator to move it from the motor/electric operational mode to the manual operational mode as part of planned valve diagnostic data collection.
