A Power System Analysis is a very important exercise in the design and operation of a power system. The Power System Analysis is used to evaluate the performance of a power system.
Power System Analysis deals, chiefly, with three important parts
They are
- Load Flow Analysis
- Short Circuit Analysis and
- Stability Analysis
A Power System Analysis helps the following aspects.
- Study the ability of the system to respond to small disturbances caused by the application/removal of small or large loads.
- Design of the breakers and isolating equipments.
- Plan for future expansion of the power system
- Study the response of the system to different fault conditions.
- Observe and monitor the voltage, real and reactive power between different buses.
- Calculate the setting of the relays and the design of the protection system.
