Fault tree analysis method is used to analyze the large-scale blackout accidents. Minimum cut sets and minimum path sets of large-scale blackout accidents are calculated, and the structural importance degree of the accidents is analyzed according to the minimum path sets. Direct factors that cause large-scale blackout accidents are determined. Effective measures are put forward to prevent large-scale blackouts, and the theoretical basis is put forward to prevent large-scale blackouts.
