EAGLE-I tracked about n/a of US electricity customers in 2025; utilities it does not see are missing from every figure here. “Hrs per customer” divides outage customer-minutes by modeled county customers (a SAIDI-like measure including major event days), so it is not the EIA-861 SAIDI utilities file.
