ABB, Inc. Key Developments

KCP&L, Kansas Gas and Electric Co., Kansas Electric Power Cooperative Inc. and Wolf Creek Nuclear Operating Corp. File a Suit Against ABB, Inc

Kansas City Power & Light Co. and the other owners of the Wolf Creek nuclear power plant are seeking more than $25 million in damages from a vendor that allegedly caused a 10-week shutdown at the plant in 2012. KCP&L, Kansas Gas and Electric Co., Kansas Electric Power Cooperative Inc. and Wolf Creek Nuclear Operating Corp. filed suit on April 12, 2013 in Jackson County Circuit Court, claiming that ABB, Inc. did faulty repairs on a startup transformer. Also named as a defendant is Charles Moses, an ABB electrician who supervised the repairs. The repairs in question involve electrical pathways for redundant offsite power sources that keep safety systems running without interruption. An April 2011 inspection showed 'a green substance' on wires in the transformer that had to be replaced; the replacements were not properly insulated.
