The induction of electric currents in electric power distribution networks is a well-known effect of Earth-directed eruptive events. Inspired by recent studies showing that the rate of power-grid anomalies may increase after exposure to strong geomagnetically induced currents in mid-latitude countries in the middle of Europe, we decided to investigate such effects for Slovak electric-power distribution grid managed by the Slovak Electricity Transmission System (SEPS). We obtained a list of disturbances recorded in the maintenance logs by the SEPS company technicians with their dates and other details.
