One of the requirements of the OST is to ensure the breaker release lever is in the neutral position with the breaker closed.The AO did this by checking the release lever with his foot for freedom of movement.The AO had used this method without incident in the past.When the AO went to check the Auxiliary Bus 1E feeder breaker 121 the breaker tripped open causing the de-energization of Auxiliary Bus lE.This also de-energized the 1B-SB safety bus thereby activating the 1B-SB Sequencer and starting the 1B-SB Diesel Generator.

The AO immediately closed the breaker cabinet and notified the Control Room.Upon notification, the Senior Control Operator (SCO)entered Abnormal Operating Procedure AOP-025, entitled"Loss of One Emergency AC Bus (6.9KV)or One Emergency DC (125V)Bus" for the loss of emergency bus and restored all plant systems to normal operation.

At the time of the incident, the plant was in Mode 4 at 345'F and 350 psig.The de-energization of non-safety related Auxiliary Bus 1E also caused the Charging Safety Injection Pumps (CSIP)suction source to automatically transfer from the Volume Control Tank (VCT)to the Refueling Water Storage Tank (RWST).This transfer occurs automatically when both VCT level channels (LT-115 and LT-112)are less than 5X (low low level)or when Safety Injection occurs.This transfer of suction source was due to the de-energization of relays K701 (for LT-115)and K706 (for LT-112)which caused the associated contacts to close and generate a signal to re-position the valves.Relay K701 lost power due to a 7.5 KVA Inverter (the normal power supply)being out of service for a maintenance function, the alternate power supply was via Auxiliary Bus lE.Relay K706 lost power due to a faulty diode which failed to pass the normal power from an uninterruptible source', the backup source was powered via the Auxiliary Bus lE.The VCT/RWST transfer was caused by a combination of both the 7.5 KVA Inverter being out of service, a defective diode in the power supply to the LT-112 relay, and the black out of power panels supplied via Auxiliary Bus 1E.CAUSE The incident was caused by a procedural inadequacy.

When the AO checked Auxiliary Bus IE feeder breaker 121 the breaker was inadvertently tripped open causing the.
de-energization of Auxiliary Bus IE and Safety Bus 1B-SB. This occurred at 2230 hours on March 7, 1987.
The de-energization of Bus 1B-SB caused the 1B-SB Diesel Generator                                                                               to start and the actuation of Sequencer lB-SB on Bus undervoltage.                                                                   The AO           immediately closed the breaker cabinet and.notified the Control Room of the incident.                                                                                       The Senior Control Operator (SCO) then initiated AOP-025 for the loss of one emergency bus and all plant systems were then returned to normal.
At the- time of the incident, the plant was in Mode 4 at 3450F and 350 psig.
There were no adverse consequences due to this event and safety systems performed as required. To prevent recurrence, the applicable procedure has been     revised.

ABSTRACT On March 7, 1987, an Auxiliary Operator (AO) was performing a weekly surveillance test (OST-1023) which is for offsite power verification. One of the requirements of the OST is to ensure the breaker release lever is in the neutral position with the breaker closed. When the AO checked Auxiliary Bus IE feeder breaker 121 the breaker was inadvertently tripped open causing the.

de-energization of Auxiliary Bus IE and Safety Bus 1B-SB. This occurred at 2230 hours0.0258 days <br />0.619 hours <br />0.00369 weeks <br />8.48515e-4 months <br /> on March 7, 1987.

The de-energization of Bus 1B-SB caused the 1B-SB Diesel Generator to start and the actuation of Sequencer lB-SB on Bus undervoltage. The AO immediately closed the breaker cabinet and.notified the Control Room of the incident. The Senior Control Operator (SCO) then initiated AOP-025 for the loss of one emergency bus and all plant systems were then returned to normal.

At the- time of the incident, the plant was in Mode 4 at 3450F and 350 psig.

There were no adverse consequences due to this event and safety systems performed as required. To prevent recurrence, the applicable procedure has been revised.

One of the requirements of the OST is to ensure the breaker release lever is in the neutral position with the breaker closed. The AO did this by checking the release lever with his foot for freedom of movement. The AO had used this method without incident in the past. When the AO went to check the Auxiliary Bus 1E feeder breaker 121 the breaker tripped open causing the de-energization of Auxiliary Bus lE. This also de-energized the 1B-SB safety bus thereby activating the 1B-SB Sequencer and starting the 1B-SB Diesel Generator.

The AO immediately closed the breaker cabinet and notified the Control Room.

Upon notification, the Senior Control Operator (SCO) entered Abnormal Operating Procedure AOP-025, entitled "Loss of One Emergency AC Bus (6.9KV) or One Emergency DC (125V) Bus" for the loss of emergency bus and restored all plant systems to normal operation. At the time of the incident, the plant was in Mode 4 at 345'F and 350 psig.

The de-energization of non-safety related Auxiliary Bus 1E also caused the Charging Safety Injection Pumps (CSIP) suction source to automatically transfer from the Volume Control Tank (VCT) to the Refueling Water Storage Tank (RWST). This transfer occurs automatically when both VCT level channels (LT-115 and LT-112) are less than 5X (low low level) or when Safety Injection occurs. This transfer of suction source was due to the de-energization of relays K701 (for LT-115) and K706 (for LT-112) which caused the associated contacts to close and generate a signal to re-position the valves. Relay K701 lost power due to a 7.5 KVA Inverter (the normal power supply) being out of service for a maintenance function, the alternate power supply was via Auxiliary Bus lE. Relay K706 lost power due to a faulty diode which failed to pass the normal power from an uninterruptible source', the backup source was powered via the Auxiliary Bus lE.

The VCT/RWST transfer was caused by a combination of both the 7.5 KVA Inverter being out of service, a defective diode in the power supply to the LT-112 relay, and the black out of power panels supplied via Auxiliary Bus 1E.

CAUSE The incident was caused by a procedural inadequacy. The procedure did not clearly state how the check was to be performed. The AO had performed this by using a,slight amount of pressure on the" release pedal.
