Notes:

Close Boiler Stop valves if the Boiler is not going to be lighted up immediately.
If boiler trips due to either both FD fans trip or both ID fans trip, as soon as fans are ready start one set of ID/FD Fans and purge the boiler.

	Vacuum can be killed if immediate startup is not planned. Before killing vacuum ensure, 1. Boiler stop valves are closed. 2. MS, CRH and HRH pressures are zero else use HP/LP bypass for depressurization. 3. Close seal steam warm-up drain, drain valves before AS-1 and AS-3 of TDBFP A&B.
