contents Power system operators need tools for rapid, real-time counterfactual assessments of grid security under fast-changing conditions. Traditional N-1 contingency analysis lacks dynamic evaluation, especially of frequency swings from common faults. This paper introduces a real-time dashboard framework to screen dynamic contingencies. It assumes: (a) the grid starts in a balanced state; (b) faults can occur randomly on any transmission line, temporarily de-energizing and then reconnecting it within about one second; and (c) contingencies are flagged if post-fault transients cause line flows to exceed safety thresholds. The key contributions are: (1) Overload Indicator: a system-wide metric quantifying integrated N-1 dynamic risk from a given state; (2) Scalable Fault Evaluation Algorithm: a linear-scaling method to assess dynamic fault impacts without brute-force simulations; and (3) Risk Estimation: a Cross Entropy Adaptive Importance Sampling method estimating the likelihood of low probability by high risk events, e.g. associated with potential transformer over-current. We demonstrate the framework on the Israeli transmission power grid (IG).
