DESIGN DEFICIENCIES IN DIESEL GENERATORS FOUND DURING EXTENDED TESTING

Oskarshamn-1 has been modernised during the past two years. During the extensive pre-start up testing, the diesels did not start on loss off the connected battery secured bus bars because of low oil pressure to the governors. Corrective action: the electrical power supply lines to the corresponding lubrication pumps were connected to independent battery supplies.
