| Title | 6O-Day Optional Telephone Notification For An Invalid Specified System Actuation |
| Event Description | This 60-day telephone notification is being made per the reporting requirements specified in 10CFR50.73(a)(2)(iv)(A) and 10CFR50.73(a)(1) to describe an invalid actuation signal affecting containment isolation valves in more than one system.
On April 2, 2013, Nine Mile Point 2 (NMP2) received a Division 2 reactor building area high ambient temperature isolation signal when lifting a lead for trip unit E31-N638B while performing surveillance N2-IPS-LDS-Q010, Reactor Building General Area Temperature Instrumentation Channel Functional Test. The isolation signal provided a closure signal to two Reactor Core Isolation Cooling System (RCIC) valves, and three Residual Heat Removal (RHR) system containment isolation valves. As a result of the isolation signal one of the RCIC containment isolation valves, 2ICS*MOV128 closed. The other four valves were already in their normal closed position. The RHR system valves are associated with the RHR Shutdown Cooling System and second RCIC isolation valve is used to warmup and place the RCIC system in standby following an isolated condition. All affected isolation valves responded as designed. As a result of 2ICS*MOV128 closing the RCIC system was declared inoperable. Technical Specification 3.5.3, RCIC System, Condition A was entered. Action A.1 required verifying the High Pressure Core Spray System (HPCS) was operable immediately. Action A.2 requires restoring RCIC to operable within 14 days. After the instrumentation system was restored to normal, the RCIC system was subsequently restored to available later that day at 1205 [EDT] and operable at 1500 [EDT]. The actuation signal was not valid because it resulted from maintenance activities when leads were lifted, and the trip unit had not been bypassed as required by the procedure. There were no isolation logic signals in response to actual plant conditions or parameters. This event was entered into the corrective action system as Condition Report (CR) 2013-002461. There were no actual safety consequences or impact on the health and safety of the public as a result of this event. The licensee notified the NRC Resident Inspector and the State. |
