abstract： as a critical infrastructure, the electric power grid is vulnerable with respect to malicious physical attacks. the importance of physical security for smart grids has been highlighted by recent intrusion incidents worldwide. physical intrusions into substations of a power grid are a source of vulnerability. as most substations are unmanned and located in isolated, remote, rural, or mountainous areas, the security personnel cannot reach these facilities easily. thus, an advanced system to monitor physical security of substations is essential to maintain system integrity. the damage on power facilities caused by successful physical intrusions can weaken the functionality of the power grid. large disturbances can cause cascading events, leading to a system collapse and power system blackouts. as a last resort action, load shedding is critical for mitigation of large disturbances on a power grid. this research provides the analytical and computational techniques for physical security monitoring and distributed load shedding at power substations.
