Abstract

It is widely accepted that transient stability is an important aspect in designing and upgrading electric power system. This paper covers the modeling and the transient stability analysis of the IEEE 14 test bus system using Matlab power system toolbox (PST) package. A three-phase fault is located at two different locations, to analyze the effect of fault location and critical clearing time on the system stability. In order to protect overhead transmission line, conductors and insulators, it is suggested that the faulted part to be isolated rapidly from the rest of the system so as to increase stability margin and hence decrease damage.
