UNIT 1 MANUAL TRIP DUE TO ELECTRO-HYDRAULIC CONTROL FLUID LEAK ON TURBINE STOP VALVE
"With Unit 1 at 100% power Unit 1 was manually tripped at 1552. The manual reactor trip was in response to the right main turbine stop valve failing closed as the result of an electro-hydraulic oil leak located at the stop valve. Procedure 1E-0 'Reactor Trip or Safety Injection' was completed at 1600. No SI [safety injection] required. 1ES-0.l 'Reactor Trip Recovery' is in progress. Offsite power remains on all safeguards buses for both units. 11 and 12 AFW pumps auto started on SG [steam generator] low level and are supplying Unit 1 Steam Generators. After the trip, power was lost to non-safety related 4160 VAC buses 11 and 14 as expected due to the electrical lineup. The loss of power to 4160 VAC bus 11 upon the reactor trip resulted in a loss of power to 11 RCP. 12 RCP continues to operate on offsite power. Unit 2 remains at 100% power/Mode 1. Reportable actuations are: Unit 1 reactor protection (scram), and Unit 1 AFW pumps auto start. The NRC Resident Inspector has been notified."
