VOLTAGE STABILITY ASSESSMENT USING CONTINUATION POWER FLOW

U. Parul Anand, P.Dharmeshkumar

This Paper presents voltage stability assessment through P-V curve and bus voltage sensitivity factor. It addresses a measure of how close the system is to voltage instability? Active power margin is used to measure the distance to instability. Continuation power flow is used to obtain P-V curve of power system. Continuation power flow starting with initial operating point and increasing load to the maximum loading point. Voltage stability index and weakest bus is found from the result. A power system analysis tool is used to run continuation power flow.
