I was reading about this a short while ago and didn't know that the incident actually occurred during a test. They were testing to see if a system they had put in would be able to power the backup turbines until the generators kicked-in in the event of a total power loss. Somewhat ironic that they were trying to make the place safer and ended up destroying the whole plant.
