I specific maintenance action had been taken to determine or correct the cause of the i

failure.

It is supposed that a spurious high flow signal occurred causing the nJnninai

,,, i pump to trip and preventing the backup pump from starting. Since the exact initiating 3

event could not ce duplicated, no further maintenance action could be taken.
