A substation doesn’t fail on schedule.

Sending the alert is the easy part. The next 20 minutes are the test:

"We will write the report once the incident is over."

By then the evidence it needs is in people's memories.

Knowing the reporting deadline is one thing. Knowing when the clock starts is another.

One incident can trigger different reporting clocks based on awareness, classification or determination.

Who decided, when, and can the record prove it?
