what would happen to a W plan system during a power outage?

everything stops & goes out, except the pilot light if a boiler has
one. What is the unknown there?

Er.. whether the thermal energy in the heat exchanger is sufficient to
overpressure the system with no circulation.

The pump overrun is there to remove the excess heat from the boiler.

The worst a powercut can do on a W plan is cause an overheat trip on the
boiler stat.
