At 1348 EST the licensee declared an Unusual Event and entered
EAL 7.3.2 due to the loss of the ability to communicate with offsite organizations. The loss of communications was due to a maintenance worker opening the wrong breaker. This caused the loss of all land based phone lines in the control room, the satellite phones and
ERDS. The power was restored and the
EAL was exited at 1414.
The licensee notified the NRC Resident Inspector.
