However, by design, removal of the jumper resulted in isolations and initiations associated with Nuclear Steam Supply.Shutoff System Group 3 (reactor building and containment) and Group 4 (miscellaneous balance of plant)Division 2 trip systems and logic channels.The procedure incorrectly directed removal of the electrical jumper before resetting of the half-isolation signals during the test.As an immediate corrective action, Control Room Operators responded in an appropriate and timely manner by taking action to restore all systems to pre-event lineup status.The cause of this event is a procedural deficiency.
The procedure should have directed removal of the electrical jumper after resetting the half-isolation signals, rather than before.Further corrective actions consist of counseling the individuals involved in the preparation and review of the procedure on the importance of attention to detail and self-checking during procedure development, and revising the logic system functional test prior to the next performance of the procedure.
There were no safety consequences associated with this event.No plant'condition requiring the engineered safety features existed and all isolations
'and initiations occurred as designed.Therefore, this event had no impact on the health and safe of either the ublic or lant ersonnel.

Removal of the jumper resulted in isolations and initiations associated with Nuclear Steam Supply Shutoff System[BD]Group 3 (reactor building and containment) and Group 4 (miscellaneous balance of plant)Division 2 trip systeins and logic channels.The following isolations and initiations occurred:~Isolation of Reactor Building and Primary Containment Supply and Exhaust Ventilation

The procedure should have directed removal of the electrical jumper after resetting the half-isolation signals during the test.Immediate Corrective Action Plant Control Room Operators secured Reactor Recirculation (RRC)[AD]System pump RRC-'P-1A[P]due to loss of the reactor closed cooling water system.At 1400 hours0.0162 days <br />0.389 hours <br />0.00231 weeks <br />5.327e-4 months <br />, operators entered Emergency Operating Procedure (EOP)5.3.1,"Secondary Containment Control," when Secondary Containment
[NG]differential pressure was observed to be slightly greater than zero due to isolation of reactor building ventilation.
At 1403 hours0.0162 days <br />0.39 hours <br />0.00232 weeks <br />5.338415e-4 months <br />, secondary containment differential pressure was restored to within normal limits and operators exited EOP 5.3.1.The operators also verified that the isolations and initiations were consistent with a Division 2 FAZ isolation and continued to respond in an appropriate and timely manner by taking action to restore all systems to pre-event lineup status.

Root Cause The cause of this event was attributed to a procedural deficiency that occurred during the conversion process pertaining to implementation of the Improved Technical Specifications.
The Supply System converted to the Improved Technical Specifications in March 1997.Prior to the conversion, Plant Procedure (PPM)7.4.3.2.2.1,"Containment Isolation-LSFT," was used to perform containment isolation logic system functional testing in accordance with the surveillance requirements of the Technical Specifications.
The frequency for'performing this procedure was once every 18 months.This procedure contained the correct sequence of steps to ensure that an unplanned engineered safety feature actuation would not occur.As part of.the procedure, fuses were removed to simulate partial logic actuation and an electrical jumper was installed.
Following I'e-installation of the fuses and resetting of the half-isolation signals, the jumper was then removed.,As part of the Improved Technical Specification implementation process, PPM 7.4.3.2.2.1 was converted to PPM TSP-CONT/ISOL-,B501,"Containment Isolation-LSFT." Other than formatting changes to reflect the Improved Technical Specifications and editorial enhancements, no other changes to the procedure were planned.However, during the revision process, the steps were inadvertently re-sequenced such that the procedure now directed removal of the electrical jumper before resetting of the half-isolation signals.By design, removal of the jumper before resetting the half-isolations caused the engineered safety feature isolations and initiations.
In this particular case, the procedure was not reviewed to the level of detail necessary to ensure that there would be no unplanned engineered safety system actuations when the procedure.was converted to reflect the Improved Technical Specifications.
This was the first time that this section of the procedure had been performed since the conversion to the Improved Technical Specifications.
The frequency for performing this procedure was also changed to once every 24 months as part of the conversion.

2.Prior to the next performance of the procedure, TSP-CONT/ISOL-B501 will be revised to correct the instructions for the logic system functional test.Ass ment of Safe Conse uences There were no safety consequences associated with this'vent.
No plant condition requiring the engineered safety features existed'nd all isolations and initiations occurred as designed.Therefore, this event had no impact on the health and safety of either the public or plant personnel.
imilar Even Although there have been safety system actuations in the past associated with less than adequate procedures, this is the first event where engineered safety system actuations were the result of a procedural deficiency that occurred as part of the conversion process associated with implementation of the Improved Technical Specifications.
