We compare and test statistical estimates of failure propagation in data from versions of a probabilistic model of loading-dependent cascading failure and a power system blackout model of cascading transmission line overloads. The comparisons suggest mechanisms affecting failure propagation and are an initial step toward monitoring failure propagation from practical system data. Approximations to the probabilistic model describe the forms of probability distribution of cascade sizes.

The paper presents a brief description of the sequence of events and processes observed during three cascading blackouts that occurred in 2016 - 2017 in the Unified Energy System (UES) of Russia. The key factors that contributed to their occurrence, development, and interruption were determined. The objectives of research on the development of measures to reduce the risk of such system-wide accidents are formulated.
