| title = Manual Reactor Scram Due to Loss of Feed Pumps After Electrical Transient
| event text = On 5/28/07 with Hope Creek in Operating Condition 1 at 100% Reactor power, an electrical transient and loss of 'A' and 'B' reactor feed pumps resulted in lowering reactor water level.  Operators inserted a manual reactor scram at 0835 in response to the lowering reactor water level.  Reactor water level lowered to (-) 38 inches subsequent to the manual scram, resulting in initiation of High Pressure Coolant Injection (HPCl) and injection to the reactor vessel.  The Reactor Core Isolation Cooling (RCIC) system also initiated but tripped.  Investigation of the cause of the electrical transient, loss of the 'A' and 'B' RFP's, and trip of the RCIC system are currently in progress.

Initial review of the event indicates that all other systems operated as expected.  Current plant conditions as of 1100 are: Hope Creek is in mode 3 at 715 psig with heat removal to the main condenser via the Main Turbine Bypass valves.  All control nods fully inserted on the scram.
