Kashiwazaki-Kariwa 5 |
When attempting to withdraw the control rods one notch to confirm the movement of the control rod drive mechanism after recovery of isolation of the hydraulic control unit, a problem occurred when control rods in core position 58-31 withdrew three notches. A full confirmation of the action of the control rod drive mechanism was implemented. At this time, in the action confirmation test conducted on June 12, a problem occurred when core position 02-31 control rods also withdrew two notches when the command was given to withdraw one notch. Abnormalities were found in the directional solenoid valve (valve 122). |
