Multiblocks power fail and void, but then your machine shuts down until you restart it. This is much better than suggested above, where you'd void over and over, but it can still utterly mess up a large craft being orchestrated thru AE2, which is still waiting forever for he failed craft to submit a part back into the system.

Yeah people talk about GT:NH being this super tedious hard pack, but it actually has tons and tons of quality of life fixes to the various mods that make it up - and voiding materials is something that is almost nearly gone (iirc very early on a single block, even steam, losing power would lose the materials, which made learning early steam (especially the alloy smelter) really painful).
GT:NH is a very interesting software project in itself, a long-living open source environment with devs maintaining forks of a lot of mods included in the pack and backporting features and fixes to 1.7.10, custom tools for development/planning and a lot of spreadsheets with data
They got Minecraft 1.7.10 and mods to run on modern Java. That's amazeballs.
