This study looked at brief electric outages based on data from 2014 to 2019 of power grid. These outages follow incidents that occurred on the power grid. We found that short outages represent 1% of the outages observed on the power grid and depend on the number of departures from distribution stations. The period during which these cuts are observed coincides with the dry period which goes from December to March with a maximum in March which is the hottest month. March is also the month when electricity consumption is at its maximum. These interruptions are accompanied by the return of electrical power to a transient overvoltage. This overvoltage is influenced by atmospheric conditions. This transient phenomenon is detrimental to the life of electrical devices.In this article we looked first at the distribution of brief denominations by departures in dispatch items, the evolution of brief cuts by distribution items, and the variation in short denominations over time. The consequence of its cuts was developed. This work was completed by proposals for a solution to the brief cuts.
