This bus powers the Reactor Protection System (RPS) Instrumentation Channel 2. This channel was providing Reactor Coolant System (RCS) flow indication to the Integrated Control System (ICS). When the bus was lost, ICS sensed a loss of flow indication and started running back feedwater flow on the secondary side. This loss of cooling to the RCS caused RCS pressure to go high, and the reactor tripp,ed on high pressure.

The loss of Y2 entered the station into the action statement of Technical Specification 3.8.2.1 which required the bus be restored to operable status within eight hours or be in at least hot standby (Mode 3) within the next six hours and in cold shutdown within the following thirty hours. Since the reactor tripped, and the station entered Mode 3, the conditions were met.
