Typical electric utility systems employ a device called a recloser, as well as the main circuit breaker at the substation. Both of these are designed to trip (for a fault), and then reclose to restore power. If the fault was temporary, the circuit and customers are restored. If the fault is permanent, these will trip again, and test again (2 dips), and then go to what is called lockout and remain open (the power is out). Last night I saw the same 2 dips (village of Pinellas) and then the lights went out.
This is the exact type of operation I would expect to see for a permanent fault, like a cable or transformer failure. SECO was probably able to isolate the affected equipment, and restore power using an alternate feed. Depending on their system design, there might be a blink when it is returned to normal.
