Information

2.2

Utilities
PTL

Inform Froth PTL that the Fire Water

System is being shutdown down and to
correctly position his Operators in
LTFT, HTFT, and the Tank Farm for
Fire Watch.

~Froth Ops to call

Utilities Operator
(Operator at job) on G2 if a fire is spotted
~This is to help reduce
the time it takes to
remove the driver from
the Wetwell and return
the system to service.

2.3

FO

Turn off 541-PU-042B jockey pump

and monitor the header pressure.

Continue monitoring the

header pressure for
~30min to ensure that
temporary jockey pump
is functioning
adequately.

2.4

FO

Isolate the FW system by:

a) Removing the positive battery leads
off both diesel engine battery packs
(541-PU-044A and 541-PU-044B) and
closing the first butterfly block valve
upstream of each pump.
b) Opening the 600V breaker on
electric pump (541-PU-043) and
closing the first butterfly block valve
upstream of the pump.
c) Opening the breaker on both jockey
pumps (541-PU-042A and 541-PU042B) and closing the first butterfly
block valve upstream of each pump.

With all the available

pumps isolated and
respective check valves
holding to prevent back
flow, all energy sources
in the wet well have
been removed. As
such, the wet well is
deemed safe for diving
operation. No further
isolation points and/or
blinds required.

2.5

FO

Operations to install isolation and

remote lock box.

~Remote Lock Box to

be with the assigned
operator while the
driver is in the wetwell.

Initial

Note: During step 2.3, if the header pressure falls too low, the main electric FW pump (541-PU-043)
may start. In this case, restart the main jockey pump (541-PU-042B), open its discharge valve, shut
off the temporary jockey pump and reset the main electric pump (541-PU-043).
If the header pressure goes too high (>1000 kPa), then restart the main jockey pump, open its
discharge valve, and shut off the temporary jockey pump.
In either of these two cases, consult with PS and Engineer before proceeding with the rest of this
procedure.
