At 2159 Sequoyah Unit 1 was manually trippAt 2159 Sequoyah Unit 1 was manually tripped from 18% reactor power. The manual trip was in response to automatic isolation of all intermediate pressure feedwater heater strings resulting in a loss of all condensate flow. The feedwater heater strings isolated following a manual trip of the main turbine. The main turbine was manually tripped in response to a failed open moisture separator reheater relief valve. At the time of the event Sequoyah Unit 1 was raising power following a refueling outage.</br>Following the reactor trip, all safety-related equipment operated as designed. Auxiliary feedwater automatically actuated as expected on loss of the operating main feedwater pump.</br>The plant is currently being maintained in Mode 3 at NOT/NOP, approximately 547 F and 2235 psig, with auxiliary feedwater supplying the steam generators and steam dumps to main condenser removing decay heat.</br>Maintenance activities have been initiated to repair the MSR relief valve.</br>Electrical lineup is normal with all safety related equipment operable. Licensee is investigation the cause for the relief valve failure. </br>The NRC Resident Inspector has been notified. NRC Resident Inspector has been notified.  +
