A CRITICAL ANALYSIS OF TRANSIENT STABILITY OF ELECTRICAL POWER SYSTEM A CASE STUDY OF NIGERIAN 330KV POWER SYSTEM

📄 Project Abstract

Electrical energy is an essential ingredient for the industrial and all-round development of any country. The quality of life in any country is highly dependent on a reliable electricity supply. The frequent system collapses in the Nigerian power sector have severally thrown or plunged the nation into darkness due to system instability in the Nigeria electric power system. The epileptic nature of the supply has led to low economic growth and dissatisfaction among the citizenry. To assist in overcoming the instability problems, analysis of the Nigerian electric power system transient stability is carried out employing Newton-Raphson method of load flow solution and fourth order Runge Kutta method in mat-lab software package environment [1, 2, 3]. The objective of any electrical power system is to generate electric energy in sufficient quantities at most suitable locality, transmit it in bulk quantities to the load centre, which is then distributed to the individual consumers. In carryi...
