What is voltage stability ?
 maintain steady acceptable voltages at all buses in the
system
 a system enters a state of voltage instability when a
disturbance, increase in load demand
 inability of a power system to meet the demand for
reactive power
 a criterion for voltage stability stability is that,
bus voltage magnitude increase as reactive
power injection at the same
bus increase
a system is voltage unstable if,
V-Q sensitivity

3
 voltage instability is essentially a local phenomenon
 voltage collapse is more complex than simple voltage
instability

ILLUSTRATION OF VOLTAGE
INSTABILITY
 Limit of satisfactory operation
 For higher load demand , control of power by varying
load would be unstable
 if load is supplied by transformers with ULTC, the tap-
changer action try to raise the load voltage. This has lower
effective ZLD and due to that VR goes low still further and
 It may call pure form of voltage instability.

CLASSIFICATION OF VOLTAGE
STABILITY
 LARGE DISTURBANCE VOLTAGE
STABILITY
 SMALL DISTURBANCE VOLTAGE
STABILITY
 TRANSIENT VOLTAGE STABILITY
 LONGER TERM VOLTAGE STABILITY

6
LARGE DISTURBANCE VOLTAGE
STABILITY (LDVS)
 It is concerned with systems ability to control voltages
following large disturbances such as system faults, loss of
generator or circuit contingency.
 Load characteristics and the interaction of both continuous
and discrete controls and protections.
 Determination of LDVS requires the examination of the
non-linear dynamic performance of a system over a period
of time (ULTC and generator field current limiter)

7
 For analysis long-term dynamic simulations are required.
 A criterion of large disturbance voltage stability, is that,
following a given disturbance and system control actions,
voltage at all buses reach acceptable steady state levels.

8
 control voltages following small perturbations
 load characteristics, continuous control and discrete control
 Basic process a steady state nature
 Stability margin, identifying factors influencing stability,
examine wide range of system conditions and large
number of post contingency scenarios.
 A criterion for SDVS, V-Q sensitivity
SMALL DISTURBANCE VOLTAGE
STABILITY (SDVS)

9
TRANSIENT VOLTAGE STABILITY
 0 to 10 seconds, transient rotor angle stability
voltage
 voltage collapse is caused by unfavorable fast
acting load components (IM and DC converters)
 For severe voltage dips the reactive power demand
of IM increases, contributing to V.C
 Electrical islanding and under frequency load
shedding resulting V.C. when imbalance is greater
than about 50%.

10
 Voltage decays faster than frequency
 under frequency relays may not operate
 There are incidents where the voltage collapses before
frequency decays to the under frequency load shedding set
points

11
LONGER TERM VOLTAGE STABILITY
 2-3 minutes
 involves high loads, high power inputs from remote
generation and a sudden large disturbance (lass of
generator or loss of major transmission line)
 the disturbance causes high reactive power losses and
voltage sags in load areas
 the tap changer sense low voltages and act to restore
disturbance voltages thereby restoring load power levels

12
 further sags of transmission voltages.
 generator farther away must then provide reactive power
this is inefficient and ineffective
 no longer support by generation and transmission system.
 partial and complete voltage collapse.

RELATION OF VOLTAGE STABILITY
AND ROTOR ANGLE STABILITY
VOLTAGE STABILITY
Pure voltage stability
 transient voltage stability
 reactive power control
 concerned with load area and load
characteristics
 load stability
 voltage collapse in load area
 without loss of synchronism of any
generators
 generator current limiting is very
detrimental to both form of
stability
ROTOR ANGLE STABILITY
Pure angle stability
 transient RAS
 reactive power control
 integrating remote power plant to a large
system over a long transmission line
 generator stability
 voltage collapse in transmission system
remote form loads

VOLTAGE INSTABILITY IN MATURE
POWER SYSTEM
 intensive use of existing generation and transmission.
 new generation in load areas and transmission lines from
remotely sited generation
 increased use of shunt capacitor bank.
How V.I. can become a problem in Mature power system?
 series reactive P.L. = I2 x take loading is I = 1000 amp, one
line outage.
 other lines peak up 25%

15
losses = (5 lines x 3 phase x 10002 x 80 ohms ) = 1200 MVA
25% peak up so losses = 1500 MVA.
 after several years load growth assume loading is 1500
Amp.
 losses = 2700 MVAr
25% increase 3375 MVAr
 because of these non linear process, V.S. problem develop
only in few years.

16
V-Q CURVES
 voltage security is closely related to reactive power and a
v-q curves gives reactive power margin at the test bus.
 the slope of the V-Q curves indicated the stiffness of the
test bus
 reactive power of the generators can be plotted on same
graph

17
 the effect of voltage sensitivity loads ( i.e. prior to tap
changing ) will have much greater reactive power margins
and much lower critical voltages
 when tap changer hit limits, the curves tend to flatten out
rather then turn up on the left side

18
VOLTAGE STABILITY ANALYSIS
DYNAMIC ANALYSIS
 for detailed studies of specific voltage control situations.
 co-ordination of protection and controls and testing of
remedial measures.
 dynamic simulations also examine whether and how the
steady-state equilibrium point will be reached.

19
STATIC ANALYSIS
 allow examination of a wide range of system conditions
 nature of the problem and identify the key condition
factors

20
DETERMINATION OF SHORTEST
DISTANCE TO INSTABILITY
 increase load from Po,Qo in some direction until an eigen
value of a Jacobian is practically zero.
 surface S represents the locus of all combinations of P and
Q which results in a zero eigen value of Jacobian.
 P1,Q1 corrosponding to this point is the stability limit
which lies on or extremely near to S.

21
 the load on the transmission lines is too high.
 the voltage sources are too far from the load centres.
 the source voltages are too low.
 large distances between generation and load.
 ULTC action during low voltage conditions.
 poor co-ordination between various control and protective
systems.
 insufficient load reactive compensation.
CAUSES OF VOLTAGE COLLAPSE

22
PREVENTION OF VOLTAGE
COLLEPSE
 application of reactive power compensating devices
 control of network voltage and generator reactive o/p
 co-ordination of protection / controls
 control of transformer tap changers
 undervoltage load shedding
 stability margin
 spinning reserve
 operators' action

23
GENERIC DYNAMIC LOAD MODEL
 Pt = V or Pv = c2V2 + c1V + c0
 Ps = P0V or Ps = P0(d2V2 + d1V + d0)
 where V is the per-unit magnitude of the voltage imposed
on the load
 It can be seen that, at steady-state, state variable x of the
model is constant
A generic dynamic model

24
 e = Ps – P, must be zero
 The transient output is then determined by the transient
characteristics P = xPt
 The mismatch between the model output and the steady-
state load demand is the error signal e
 This signal is fed back to the integration block that
gradually changes the state variable x
 This process is continues until a new steady-state (e=0) is
reached
 Pt(V) = V, Ps(V) = P0Va; Qt(V) = V, Qs(V) = Q0Vb

25
LOAD MODELLING
 ix3 = ixE = ixM + ixC ; iy3 = iyE + iyN + iyC
 Exponential load Polynomial load
P(V3) = Po (V3/V3o) P =  Po [aP(V/Vo)2 + bP(V/Vo) + CP]
Q(V3) = Qo (V3/V3o) Q =  Qo [aQ(V/Vo)2 + bQ(V/Vo) + CQ]
 , depends on load ; aP + bP + cP = aQ = bQ = cQ = 1
 Po,Qo is consumed power at reference voltage
 complex current injected in to the network
 IE = - (S/V3) = -[ P(V3) – jQ(V3)/Vx3 – j Vy3 ] = ixE + j
VyE

26
CONCLUSION
 Three key concepts of voltage stability are
the load characteristics as seen from the bulk power network
the available means for voltage control at generators and in the
network
the ability of network to transfer power particularly reactive power
from the point of production to the point of consumption
 The network steady state loadability limit is not necessarily the voltage
instability limit
 Static power flow based analyses of the post disturbance steady state is
the useful method of analyzing longer term voltage stability
 The fundamental cause of voltage instability is identified as
incapability of combined transmission and generation system to meet
excessive load demand in either real power or reactive power form
