6. ➢ Modern power systems operates near to their stability boundaries due to
strict economic limitations. Due to rapid increased loading the chance of
voltage collapse is certain. The driving force for voltage instability is
usually the loads.
➢ Disconnect some load from power system under heavy stress condition is
known as load shedding. A small amount of load shed can make the
system from collapse to survival

7. Introduction.. Cont’d
➢ Voltage collapse in power system is the main concern for the system
operators which is complex and confined in nature. It is typically
associated with reactive power demand of load not being met due to
shortage of reactive power and transmission system limitation.
➢ Load shedding scheme requires coordination between protection
engineers and system planners, who together can determine the amount
of load and time delay required for the shedding

15. 1. Load shedding scheme should be designed in coordination with protective
devices and control schemes for momentary voltage dips, sustained faults, low
voltages caused by stalled air conditioners, etc.
2. Time delay to initiate load dropping should be in seconds, not in cycles. A
typical time delay varies between 3 to 10 seconds.
3. UVLS relays must be on PTs that are connected above the automatic LTCs.
4. Voltage pick-up points for the tripping signals should be set reasonably
higher than the “nose point” of the critical P-V or Q-V curve.
5. Voltage pick-up points and the time delays of the local neighboring systems
should be checked and coordinated.
6. Redundancy and enough intelligence should be built into the scheme to
ensure reliable operation and to prevent false tripping.
7. Enough loads should be shed to bring voltages to minimum operating
voltage levels or higher while Maintaining VAR margins according to WSCC’s
Voltage Stability Criteria.

26. ➢ The data used is standard IEEE Bus System.
➢ Transmission network is considered (IEEE 30 and 57 Bus Test System)
➢ Distributed generations are not considered.
➢ The disturbance is created by increasing the power demand in this
study i.e. large contingency such as major generator outages or
important power transmission line outages.
➢ Minimization of losses due to increased demand are not considered
➢ Frequency decay due to increased demand ignored while consider
the voltage decay only.
➢ Composite load demand is considered.

27. ➢ The improved algorithm is simple and could be easily integrated into
practical existing test systems.
➢ The developed technique is useful where generation and transmission
facilities are limited.
➢ The system planners and operators have deep insight the condition of power
failure with the help of developed technique.
➢ The developed technique is fast enough which is suitable for real time
applications.
➢ The developed technique has the ability to bring back the power system
from collapse to restoration.
