Abstract—On March 27, 2015, technical faults occurred in a
Dutch substation, and the chain reaction followed by lead to
blackout in a large area of Holland. The blackout caused
serious consequences on the north area of Holland (including
the capital Amsterdam). This paper briefly introduces the
current status of Holland power grid, and reviews the time
sequence of the blackout. The main causes of the Holland
blackout are analyzed preliminarily. Based on this study, the
paper presents the revelations for Hunan power grid, such as
the dynamic security check and evaluation deficiencies, lack of
accident response capability, protection and stability control
being set incorrectly, and grid construction lagging behind
demands. The relevant recommendations are proposed to
avoid the blackout and protect the security and stability of the
grid.
