Abstract

The authors study the minimal information structure needed for monitoring and control of the voltage profile and the reactive power flow of a power system. Emphasis is on the minimum amount of information (data) required for reliable decision-making. An effort is made to work with fewer voltage data and therefore make the real-time monitoring and control more manageable. An annealing algorithm for selecting pilot points is presented. These are the load buses at which the voltage is to be measured in real time. Simulation results obtained with the algorithm for the Central Illinois Light Company system are presented
