In the u.s some terrorists were shooting at power transformers, if there was a real war these are the types of things that would probably happen. You can spend billions of dollars on tanks, jets etc. but it just takes some hackers or small special ops teams or terrorists to disable whole cities.

And thats exactly why you need multiple independent circuits to avoid a backout in the whole system.
