Abstract
Of the many electric power grid characteristics that contribute to its strength and effectiveness, there are two attributes that truly illustrate the nature of the grid, its fibrousness and its scale. Continental interconnectivity allows for fast, affordable, and reliable energy delivery but comes at the cost of complexity. In this way, the properties of the grid that embody its magnitude also contribute to the challenge of monitoring, operation, and control.
