“If someone decides to blast a transformer at its base as prepper Bryan Smith did, and the oil drains out, then the transformer either burns out catastrophically, or if the utility is lucky, a software routine notices the problem and shuts the substation (or at least the affected portion) down” (http://www.bob-owens.com/2013/01/shock-the-system/)

Things that make you go Hmmm…
Mk-80 Series Bomb Facts
• 500, 1000, 2000 lb bombs (Mk 82, 83, 84)– About 50% is HE
• Not particularly large compared to a truck bomb• Cratering figures
– Mk 84 (2000 lb)• 50 ft wide by 36 ft deep
Blowing things up is easy!

Care to Name These Events?
19 April 1995Ryder Truck: Ammonium Nitrate& Diesel…roughly 4,000 lbs of homebrew explosive$652 million in damage, 169 dead
26 February 1993Ryder Truck: 1300 to 1500 pounds of nitrate-hydrogen gasCreated a hole 98 feet wide through four levels of concrete.$500 million in damage, 6 dead15,000 ft/sec Propagation speed
Final Analysis of the Threat
• Can a bad person blow up/fault a substation?– YES!
• All at once with a truck bomb? Yes
– There are other methods equally effective• Said methods don’t go bang but do apply faults
• How do you simulate it?– 3 phase faults everywhere…just fault buses
• PRC-023 data is likely relevant• No commsdelayed clearing20 plus cycles?
– You might conclude that modeling relays is a good idea?!
Can we defeat a truck bomb?
• Of course– You make them go some where else…a game of
keep away
