| title = Automatic Turbine Trip/Reactor Trip Due to a Sudden Pressure Relay Signal from Main Transformer Bank "1C
| event text = On August 25, 2003, Watts Bar (WBN) Unit 1 was operating at 100 percent power when there was an operation of a "Sudden Pressure Relay" for Main Transformer Bank 1C. The actuation of the relay resulted in a turbine trip and a subsequent reactor trip at approximately 0945 EDT. The cause of the relay actuation is under investigation at this time. All control rods inserted as required and the safety systems actuated as designed including the motor and turbine driven pumps for the Auxiliary Feedwater (AFW) System.  AFW pump 1B-B was inoperable at the time of the trip due to work on an area cooler.  However, the pump was available for service and started as required.  Unit 1 is currently stable in Mode 3 and will remain in this mode until the completion of the investigation into the cause of the trip.

At the time of the Sudden Pressure Relay for Main Transformer Bank 1C, an oil sample was being taken of the Transformer.  Fire Brigade was sent but there was no fire and no explosion to the Transformer.  The electrical grid is stable, and Emergency Core Cooling systems and the Emergency Diesel Generators are fully operable if needed.  At this time only the 1B-B Motor Driven Auxiliary Feedwater pump is still operating.
