| title = Manual Reactor Trip After a Main Condenser Tube Leak
| event text = At 1407 CDT CPNPP [Comanche Peak Nuclear Power Plant] Unit-2 was manually tripped due to indication of a main condenser tube failure.  The trip was uncomplicated, all control and shutdown banks fully inserted, neither emergency diesel generator started, all safety systems functioned as designed.  Both motor driven and the turbine driven AFW [auxiliary feedwater] pumps started as required to restore steam generator level as a result of the trip.  The turbine driven AFW pumps has been returned to auto start status.  Currently Unit-2 is in mode 3, no-load Tave 557 degrees F with temperature being maintained with AFW and steam dumps to the main condenser.  Recovery actions are currently being planned.  All electrical busses are powered from offsite power and grid conditions are stable.
