| LOSS OF EMERGENCY ASSESSMENT CAPABILITY AFFECTING PLANT ANNUNCIATORS |
| |
| "This report is being made pursuant to 10 CFR 50.72(b)(3)(xiii), Major loss |
| of emergency assessment capability. Electrical Maintenance Department |
| personnel were removing an Annunciator System power supply inverter as part |
| of pre-planned maintenance. During the removal of the inverter, a short |
| occurred which resulted in the loss of power to all of the Division II |
| powered annunciators (about 50 % of all annunciators). The station entered |
| the abnormal response procedure and took compensatory action for monitoring |
| equipment and plant status. At present, troubleshooting activities are in |
| progress to restore full annunciator capability." |
| |
| All plant systems functioned as required and no other plant systems were |
| affected by this incident. |
| |
| The licensee notified the NRC Resident Inspector. |
