On April 30, 2010, at 1648 hours Central Daylight Time (CDT) with Unit 1 at 100 percent thermal power, while attempting to change a light bulb, the light socket shorted causing a loss of 1A RPS. The loss resulted in Groups 2, 3, 6, and 8 primary containment isolations, and initiation of Standby Gas Treatment and Control Room Emergency Ventilation. BFN's review of the event found that the bulb caused a direct short and caused the loss of RPS 1A. Plant conditions which require PCIS actuations and system initiations (e.g., low reactor water level, high drywall pressure, abnormal area radiation level, high area temperature) did not exist, therefore the actuation was invalid. | On April 30, 2010, at 1648 hours Central Daylight Time (CDT) with Unit 1 at 100 percent thermal power, while attempting to change a light bulb, the light socket shorted causing a loss of 1A RPS.
