A room during load shedding at night in West Bengal, India. A rolling blackout, also referred to as rota or rotational load shedding, rota disconnection, feeder rotation, or a rotating outage, is an intentionally engineered electrical power shutdown in which electricity delivery is stopped for non-overlapping periods of time over different parts of the distribution region.
This is a list of notable wide-scale power outages. To be included, the power outage must conform to all of the following criteria: The outage must not be planned by the service provider. The outage must affect at least 1,000 people. The outage must last at least one hour. There must be at least 1,000,000 person-hours of disruption. For example:

In a power outage, the microgrid controller disconnects the local circuit from the grid on a dedicated switch and forces any online distributed generators to power the local load. [3] [4] Unintentional islanding is a dangerous condition that may induce severe stress on the generator, as the generator must match any changes in electrical load alone
Loss of load in an electrical grid is a term used to describe the situation when the available generation capacity is less than the system load. [1] Multiple probabilistic reliability indices for the generation systems are using loss of load in their definitions, with the more popular [2] being Loss of Load Probability (LOLP) that characterizes a probability of a loss of load occurring within ...
When the loss of load happens (generation capacity falls below the load), utilities may impose load shedding (also known as emergency load reduction program, [23] ELRP) on service areas via targeted blackouts, rolling blackouts or by agreements with specific high-use industrial consumers to turn off equipment at times of system-wide peak demand.
