| event text = A circuit analysis review for Appendix R Operator Manual Action deficiency extent of condition identified that fire damage to cable ES194-I is not isolated by the local control power transfer switch utilized in the Safe Shut-down Instruction. Fire damage to the non-isolated cable ES194-I in Fire Areas 01-03, 02-01, and 02-03 could cause the RHR Pump 2C to spuriously start (or restart after the Operator local trip action) when 4kV Shutdown Board B is credited for these Fire Areas. An undesired spurious start of RHR Pump 2C could overload the credited Diesel Generator or take away the necessary load capacity to allow operation of other Appendix R fire safe shutdown credited loads.

The fire damage postulated would require a short to ES194-I from a separate cable conductor energized with the positive potential of the battery supplying 4kV Shutdown Board B (i.e., normally Shutdown Battery B). It is postulated for a fire-event that the necessary short to ES194-I could come from a cable-to-cable short or from a short to ground as the fire event may cause a separate conductor energized with the positive potential of the associated battery to short to ground.
