| title = Insulator Failure on Reserve Auxiliary Transformer
| event text = At approximately 1257 [CDT] on 4/02/16, the Main Control Room received numerous annunciators that indicated a trip of the Reserve Auxiliary Transformer (RAT) Static VAR Compensator (SVC) that was caused by an insulator failure of the 'A' phase 345kV Circuit Switcher. As a result of the voltage transient, the Division 1 Fuel Building Ventilation (VF) system isolation dampers closed causing a trip of VF supply and exhaust fans. With no running VF fans, secondary containment differential pressure rose to slightly greater than 0 inches water gauge which exceeded the Technical Specification requirement of greater than 0.25 inches vacuum water gauge. The Control Room entered EOP-8, Secondary Containment Control. This event is being reported as a 'Condition that Could Have Prevented Fulfillment of a Safety Function' under 10CFR50.72(b)(3)(v)(C). Secondary Containment differential pressure was restored within Technical Specification requirements at 1300 [CDT] by starting the Standby Gas Treatment HVAC (VG) system.
