SUMMARY

Unit 2 average daily power for the month of February was 512.1 MWe.

There were no LERs on Unit 2 for the month of February.

On February 27, PBNP experienced a loss of 345KV Line 151. Unit 2 was in a condition where the loss of 345KV, bus tie breaker 4-5, resulted in separating from the grid. Based on this scenario, Unit 2 was required to reduce load to <50%. On February 28, ATCo personnel notified PBNP that repairs were complete on Line 151; Unit 2 commenced load increase to 100%.
