if a piano is out of tune, you'll hear it, perhaps even flinch.
if a high power transformer goes out of tune... it melts or blows up (or both); it'll try to shut itself down before that. getting it back on becomes a problem if other transformers do the same thing, which is apparently what happened in the whole country.
