Abstract:
<em>A power distribution network is simply an inter-connection of 33/11 kV power transformers, network in-feeds, distribution station buses and the loads. The security of such a system is of great consideration in power utilities. Thus, contingency analysis is often used to determine the security of such system. Several methods used in analyzing power system security include linear programming (LP), least squares (LS), decision trees (DTs), artificial neural network (ANN) etc. These methods were observed from literature to take a long computational period. Therefore, this paper presents a cont

Abstract:
The increased complexity of the transmission grid can endanger the operational security of the grid. Operational risk assessment, a stochastic tool, helps to enhance security. Contingency analysis and its impact quantification are the main constituents of operational risk assessment. In this study, different graphical methods are proposed to visualize operational risk contingency-based detailed results: heat-map and risk-based contingency chart. Through the heat-map, the system operator can determine which contingencies contribute most to the operational risk and would therefore be the most th

Abstract:
This paper deals with the security aspects of power system by evaluating the severity of transmission line outage. MW security assessment is made by determining the power flow in the line using load flow for each contingency. The severity of contingency is measured using a scalar index called performance index (PI). DC load flow and Fast Decoupled load flow are used as approximate and exact load flow methods for MW security assessment respectively. Contingency analysis is carried out and ranked lists in the decreasing order of severity based on PI values are prepared for standard test systems.

Abstract:
Severity assessment of transmission lines is a very important aspect of contingency analysis of a power system. Thereafter, a proper solution needs to be provided to ensure a secured power supply. In this paper, rapid contingency ranking technique (RCRT) has been introduced for the contingency assessment of a power system. Several composite indices have been designed by forming different combinations of line overload indices and voltage stability indices and the results have been compared. Deterministic and probabilistic approach have been used for the placement of IPFC and the results have be
