At 16:01 on April 10, 2025, a system frequency dip was observed from the Global-Roam frequency logger which records at 100 millisecond intervals.
In this article we present three charts using the frequency data to provide an initial point of reference for any future analysis that, time permitting, we may perform.
Frequency dipped to 49.824 Hz and spent some time near the lower NOFB
Zooming in we observe some variability in the measurements between 16:01:15 and 16:01:23
The decline happened over relatively long period leading to only moderate rates of change

Allan O’Neil provides an explainer about how small deviations in supply and demand are managed in the NEM, in order to help us understand the apparent swings in frequency that we noted in QLD last Friday.
