| Title | Manual Scram Due to Degrading Condenser Vacuum During Power Ascension |
| Event Description | Unit was in process of returning to operation following repair of condenser expansion joint. During power ascension, a manual reactor scram was inserted due to degrading condenser vacuum. During the reactor water level transient after the scram, reactor water level dropped below 170 inches and caused the isolation of PCIS groups 2, 3, and 4. All isolations went to completion. This reactor water level drop is normal following a scram from 20% power due to void collapse in the reactor vessel. Reactor water level was restored to normal using the feedwater system and the PCIS group isolations are being reset. Current plan is to remain in Mode 3 during condenser vacuum troubleshooting and repair.
All rods were fully inserted during the scram, no SRVs lifted, and the electric distribution system is in a normal lineup for plant condition. The MSIVs are open with decay heat being removed to the main condenser using the bypass valves. No additional specified system actuations occurred. Licensee notified the NRC Resident Inspector. |
