| Title | Invalid Specified System Actuation |
| Event Description | This 60-day report, as allowed by 10 CFR 50.73(a)(1), is being made pursuant to 10 CFR 50.73(a)(2)(iv)(A) to describe an unplanned, invalid actuation of containment isolation valves in more than one system.
On 3/28/16, at approximately 1320 [EDT], a loss of power occurred on the Unit 2 E124 480 volt load center due to an equipment operator inadvertently opening the main feed breaker during the process of applying a clearance to de-energize the E124-P-A motor control center for planned maintenance. Loss of the E124 load center resulted in Group II and Group III primary containment isolations due to an invalid ESF actuation signal. Systems impacted by the containment isolations included containment instrument nitrogen, containment atmospheric monitoring, reactor water cleanup, and secondary containment. Balance of plant impacts included partial loss of feedwater heating and a reduced condenser vacuum. Reactor power lowered to 86% as a result of the event and further decreased to approximately 80 percent when re-establishing the 3A, 4A and 5A feedwater heaters. Following direction from the control room, the E124 main feed breaker was promptly re-closed by equipment operators. Affected equipment was restored to its normal or planned configuration and containment isolations were reset at 1406. The containment isolation signal was generated as a result of the loss of power to the E124 load center and was not due to actual plant conditions or parameters meeting design criteria for containment isolation. Therefore, this is considered to be an invalid actuation. The licensee has notified the NRC Resident Inspector. |
