| Title | Automatic Reactor Trip During Control Rod Testing |
| Event Description | The following information was provided by the licensee via email:
On April 14, 2022, at 0928 [EDT] hours, Unit 1 automatically tripped from 100 percent power during the control rod operability periodic test. The reactor trip occurred during the manipulation of the rod control mode selector switch as part of the rod operability testing. The Operations crew entered the reactor trip procedure and stabilized Unit 1 in Mode 3 at normal operating temperature and pressure. The reactor trip was uncomplicated, and all control rods fully inserted into the core. This reactor protection system actuation is reportable per 10 CFR 50.72(b)(2)(iv)(B). The Auxiliary Feedwater pumps actuated as designed because of the reactor trip and provide makeup flow to the steam generators. The automatic start of the Auxiliary Feedwater system is reportable per 10 CFR 50.72(b)(3)(iv) (A) for a valid actuation of an ESF [Engineered Safety Features] system. The Auxiliary Feedwater pumps were subsequently secured and returned to automatic. Decay heat is being removed by the condenser steam dump system. Unit 1 is in a normal shutdown electrical lineup. An investigation into the cause of the reactor trip is underway. The NRC Resident Inspector has been notified. The following additional information was obtained from the licensee in accordance with Headquarters Operations Officers Report Guidance: There was no affect to Unit 2. Unit 2 is operating at 100 percent power. |
