It depends on an extensive network of foreign-made components, with very little security or resilience built in, and transformer wait-times exceeding two years. If anything, the straight issues and Iran situation only add more stress where the opposite was needed. The scale of infrastructure damage in Iran could, conceivably, motivate retaliation here.

And then we have n amount of CVEs in the wild with yet to be discovered exploits on SCADA, ICS systems and much more. I was actually in Pinellas during the water facility hack of 2021. Maybe not a terrific example, but if you truly think we're locked down and secure, by all means, share the confidence, as I could use it. The U.S. grid depends on long‑lead, foreign-sourced critical components and has documented ICS/SCADA vulnerabilities; resilience is not as strong as typically assumed.

Otherwise, I guess I fail to catch your point. I'm wrong, is it?

I suppose, considering you are not the one I asked, yet imposed a veiled answer, indicates an unconditional on the above, nu?

My point was that you failed to supply any plausible cause-and-effect that would cause electrical disruptions in Florida. In your reply here, you supplied one. A plausible one, too. I don't know if they would open that can of worms, but they might. (Why would they not? Because they are pretty sure that the US has counter-threats to Iranian infrastructure that are at least as good. On the other hand, if the US simply bombs their infrastructure into oblivion, that counter-threat disappears.)

Your last paragraph reads like veiled innuendo, but is so veiled that it's hard to be sure. At a minimum, your post would be stronger without it.
