SAIDI: minutes of sustained interruption per customer over the year, including major event days (paler bars: the utility reported only the figure without major event days). The 25 highest of 27 filings are drawn; the price table above carries every figure. Median across 27 Oklahoma filings: 285.9 minutes with major event days, 115.4 without. EIA's state total: 270.9 and 119.6 minutes, with SAIFI of 1.73 interruptions per customer. Utilities use differing calculation methods, and a single storm can dominate a small utility's year.
