| Title | Turbine Electro-Hydraulic Control Malfunction Leads to Reactor Scram |
| Event Description | At 1503 hours0.0174 days <br />0.418 hours <br />0.00249 weeks <br />5.718915e-4 months <br /> EDT, an Electro-Hydraulic Control (EHC) system malfunction caused the Unit 2 Main Turbine bypass valves (BPV) to start cycling. Initially, BPV 1 partially opened and closed followed shortly thereafter by four BPVs going full open. At that time the order was given to insert a manual scram. An automatic scram signal occurred just as the operator was beginning to insert the manual scram.
Preliminary investigation of the automatic scram signal indicates that it was initiated by low Relay Emergency Trip Supply (RETS) pressure to the main turbine control valves due to the EHC malfunction. Reactor water level momentarily dropped below Low Level during the response. This resulted in Primary Containment Isolation System (PCIS) Group 2 and Group 6 isolations, as expected. All control rods fully inserted. All systems responded as designed. This report is being made in accordance with 10 CFR 50.72(b)(2)(iv)(B) due to the Reactor Protection System actuation and 10 CFR 50.72(b)(3)(iv)(A) due to the PCIS Group 2 and Group 6 actuations. Unit 1 was not affected by this event and remains at 100% power. The NRC resident inspector has been notified. |
