CIPRNet project
The CIPRNet project [1] uses the following definition:
“A cascading failure occurs when a disruption in one infrastructure causes the failure of a component in a second infrastructure, which subsequently causes a disruption in the second infrastructure.” [2]
DIESIS project
The DIESIS project [3] gives the following definition:
A cascading failure occurs when a disruption in one infrastructure causes the failure of a component in a second infrastructure, which subsequently causes a disruption in the second infrastructure. [2]
National Definitions
United States
NERC
The uncontrolled successive loss of system elements triggered by an incident at any location. [4]
Cascading results in widespread electric service interruption that cannot be restrained from sequentially spreading beyond an area predetermined by studies.
