For
Readers studying grid stability and power-system operations
Worth noticing
The interface marks figures as reported, derived, or estimated, and says crossing Ψ=1 is not proof that equipment trips.

Field notes

A five-part structure moves from event records through mechanisms and patterns to remedies and methodology. The South Australia reconstruction distinguishes operator-reported losses from derived or estimated figures, and the interface lets readers select among four named disturbances. Its map combines mechanism indicators into Ψ, but the page cautions that this screening measure is not proof that equipment will trip.
