Abstract-This paper presents analysis results of synchronized phasor data from 10 disturbance events recorded in the US Eastern Interconnection (EI). The phasor data covers a wide region in the EI, allowing for the study of disturbance propagation, interarea modes, and oscillations in voltages and currents. The analysis is not straightforward because the EI is a meshed system with adequate interarea mode damping. Disturbances involving tripping a single large generator unit produce very short interarea swing responses. Islanding events involving regions at the perimeter, however, provide more prominent responses for analysis.
