| title = Both Trains of Emergency Diesel Generators Are Inoperable
| event text = On March 25, 2011, the Train B emergency diesel generator (2EGS-EG2-2) was inoperable and unavailable due to being out of service for scheduled maintenance. At 1400 hours, the Train A emergency diesel generator (2EGS-EG2-1) was declared inoperable, but available, after questions were raised about the adequacy of the assembly method for fuel injection line compression fittings by the manufacturer.  Without assurance that the fittings meet full qualification requirements, the Train A emergency diesel generator was declared inoperable.

The Unit is currently in Mode 6 with fuel loaded and the upper internals installed in the reactor vessel. The reactor vessel head is removed with 23 feet of water in the cavity, two Operable Residual Heat Removal trains one of which is in operation. With both emergency diesels inoperable, the safety functions needed for accident mitigation could be impaired in the event of a loss of off-site power. Actions are currently in progress to restore one emergency diesel generator to an Operable status.
