The Complete Shutdown of Our Entire Electrical Grid (From ATM’s and banking systems to key infrastructure like power, water and gas utilities, you would immediately see failures across the board.)
The Complete Shutdown of Our Entire Electrical Grid (From ATM’s and banking systems to key infrastructure like power, water and gas utilities, you would immediately see failures across the board.)
What was once considered something that can only happen in a science fiction novel is now a very real possibility: the complete shutdown of our entire electrical grid.
Power grid failures are nothing new; in fact, during the winter of 1965 the United States experienced one of the worst power outages in its history. Over 30 million people from seven northeastern states and the province of Ontario in Canada were plunged into darkness when maintenance workers mistakenly tripped a safety relay. Almost forty years later, the same area was hit by the great Northeast blackout of 2003, where over 55 million people experienced power outages as a result of a software bug.
While most power outages are caused by storms or utility company mistakes, a growing number of these outages are being blamed on everything from our deteriorating electrical infrastructure to terrorists and hackers.

The American electrical grid is outdated and in need of serious repairs/upgrades. It’s absolutely not adequately shielded against the level of voltage something like an EMP weapon can produce.
