The principle behind SFT is simple: if one circuit in the grid has an unplanned outage, then every other line in the grid could then become overloaded. Therefore we need to limit the flow on some circuits just in case there is an outage. For example, the figure shows a portion of a grid where three identical circuits are in parallel.
