Finding The Most Sensitive Nodes on IEEE-14 Bus System and Adaptation of Protection Scheme
Abstract: Power system stability is one of the most significant concerns in power system. Providing continuous supply of electric energy to meet the load demand is a complex technical challenge. One of the main causes of voltage instability in a system is the occurrence of reactive power imbalance in the system. Reactive power will be unbalanced when there is a sudden increase or decrease in reactive power demand in the system. …
