| event text = On August 17, 2017, at 1205 Eastern Daylight Time (EDT), the Watts Bar Nuclear Plant (WBN) lost power to the 1B-B 6.9kV Shutdown Board.  The loss of power to this safety related bus resulted in an automatic start of the Unit 1 Turbine Driven Auxiliary Feedwater Pump (TDAFWP).  The motor driven AFW pumps did not start and were not expected to start for this event.  No other system actuations occurred as a result of loss of power to the 1B-B 6.9kV Shutdown Board.  Power to the 1B-B Shutdown Board was restored at 1505 EDT on August 17, 2017.

During the loss of power to the 1B-B Shutdown Board, a reduction in containment and control rod drive mechanism cooling occurred. At 1233 EDT, lower containment average temperature exceeded the procedural limitations specified, and Technical Specification 3.6.5 Condition A was entered for containment average air temperature not within limits.  Lower containment average temperature was restored to within limits at 1525 EDT on August 17, 2017.  This is reportable as a potential loss of safety function.
