[QUOTE="Tony S, post: 484754, member: 20864"] Looking at the situation as in a UK perspective, there are limits at which our system will automatically shut down based on the grid frequency. 49.5 and 50.5 Hz are the limits. If we were to loose the French interconnect our system would slow down and fail to make up the deficit in time. It would result in a total system shut down. Rant mode: We boast of not burning coal in power stations for a month, the French and Germans are quite happily burning it to sell to the village idiot, AKA as the UK. We are on our arse regarding energy resources. [/QUOTE]
