Introduction:
Allmodelparameters,functions,andtoolsareaccessedeasilythroughSimulator'sgraphicaluser
interface (GUI), which offers unparalleled easeofuse and, thus, a very modest learning curve.
Simulator'sGUI,whichhaslongbeenitsstrongestsellingpoint(becauseitistheproduct'smost
obvious advantage over its competitors), aids both in using the program and in interpreting its
results. Using Simulator's oneline displays and information dialogs, it is possible to build and

PowerWorldSimulator.
Anoverridingfactorintheoperationofapowersystemisthedesiretomaintainsystemsecurity.
Systemsecurityinvolvespracticesdesignedtokeepthesystemoperatingwhencomponentsfail.
For example, a generating unit may have to be taken offline because of auxiliary equipment
failure.Bymaintainingproperamountsofspinningreserve,theremainingunitsonthesystemcan
make up the deficit without too low a frequency drop or need to shed any load. Similarly, a
transmission line may be damaged by a storm and taken out by automatic relaying. If, in
committing and dispatching generation, proper regard for transmission flows is maintained, the
remainingtransmissionlinescantaketheincreasedloadingandstillremainwithinlimit.
Because the specific times at which initiating events that cause components to fail are
unpredictable,thesystemmustbeoperatedatalltimesinsuchawaythatthesystemwillnotbe
left in a dangerous condition should any credible initiating event occur. Since power system
equipment is designed to be operated within certain limits, most pieces of equipment are
protectedbyautomaticdevicesthatcancauseequipmenttobeswitchedoutofthesystemifthese

Aim:TostudythePreventiveandEmergencycontrolusingPowerWorldSimulator.
Ifalltheequipmentsinthesystemarewithintheirrespectivelimits,thenasystemcouldbeinthe
normal oralertstate. If a system can withstand potential contingencies (like afault followed by
line tripping or a generator trip) without equipment limits being violated or without losing
stability,thenwesaythatthesystemisinanormalor"securestate".Anetworkconfigurationor
loadingstatewhichcanwithstandanelementoutagewithoutlossoffsupplytoanyloadiscalled
"n1"secure.Otherwiseweclassifythesystemasbeing"insecure",i.e.,inthealertstate.
To distinguish between a normal state and an alert state, a system operator carries out the
following studies using the network configuration, load and generation values obtained from a
staticstateestimationprocedure:
Static Security analysis: This involves checking for equipment limit violations, if one of the
elementsofthenetwork/load/generationconfigurationexistingatthatpointoftimeweretobe
trippedduetosomecontingency.Notethatthiselementisnotactuallytrippedbyanoperator,but
only simulated using a computer program (essentially a loadflow study which computes the
steady state power flows in transmission lines, generator real and reactive power output, and
voltagesatvariousnodesforsuchatripping).
Dynamic Security analysis: This involves checking the stability of the system, if one of the
elementsofthenetwork/load/generationconfigurationexistingatthatpointoftimeweretobe
tripped due to some contingency. The exact nature of the contingency can impact the transient
behavior. For example, the contingency could be due to a single phase to ground fault which
resultsinprotectiveaction(circuitbreakersdisconnectingthefaultedelement)within,say,0.1s.
Note again, that this element is not actually tripped by an operator, but only simulated using a
computer transient analysis program (which essentially does a numerical integration of the
differentialequationswhichdescribethesystem).Acomputerprogramwhichchecksforangular
stability requires a significantly large amount of computation time. Therefore, it is not
implementedinmostloaddispatchcentersatpresent.
Ifthesecurityanalysisshowsthatthesystemissecure,itisclassifiedasanormalstate.Ifthestate
is normal, then a system operator may wish to do some minor changes in real and reactive
scheduling (from an economic perspective), if such flexibility exists. However any such change
shouldnotbringthesystemoutofthesecurestate.

PreventiveControl:
Ifthesystemisnotsecure(alert),thentheoperatorhastotrytosteeritintothesecurestateby

reactive power rescheduling (Preventive Control ). However, note that this rescheduling is
donetoimprovesecurityandmayresultinhighercostifcheapergeneratorsareaskedto"back

emergencycontrolactionsfail)whichcancausegreateconomicloss.Theclassificationofasystem
stateasanormaloralertstateisbasedonsimulatingsomedisturbances.Often,eventhoughthe
system has been classified as being in a normal state, several improbable disturbances, which
wouldnothavebeenanalyzedfordoingthisclassification,takeplace.
Therefore the system can transit from a perceived alert state to an emergency state if no
preventive controls are exercised and a contingency occurs, or may directly transit to an
emergency state from a perceived normal state if an unanticipated sequence of several
contingencies occurs. If the system does go into an emergency state some equipment limits are
exceeded which may cause further tripping of equipment, thereby worsening the situation and
maycauseacompleteblackout.Emergencycontrolactions(manualorautomatic)arerequiredto

Aim:Tostudythestateestimationofpowersystem.
Stateestimationistheprocessofassigningavaluetoanunknownsystemstatevariablebasedon
measurements from that system according to some criteria. Usually, the process involves
imperfect measurements that are redundant and the process of estimating the system states is
basedonastatisticalcriterionthatestimatesthetruevalueofthestatevariablestominimizeor
maximizetheselectedcriterion.Acommonlyusedandfamiliarcriterionisthatofminimizingthe
sumofthesquaresofthedifferencesbetweentheestimatedandtrue(i.e.measured)valuesofa
function.
Inapowersystem,thestatevariablesarethevoltagemagnitudesandrelativephaseanglesatthe
system nodes. Measurements are required in order to estimate the system performance in real
time for both system security control and constraints on economic dispatch. The inputs to an
estimatorareimperfectpowersystemmeasurementsofvoltagemagnitudesandpower,VAR,or
ampereflow quantities. The estimator is designed to produce the best estimate of the system
voltage and phase angles, recognizing that there are errors in the measured quantities and that
theremayberedundantmeasurements.Theoutputdataarethenusedinsystemcontrolcenters
intheimplementationofthesecurityconstraineddispatchandcontrolofthesystem.
Many problems are encountered in monitoring a transmission system. These problems come
primarilyfromthenatureofthemeasurementtransducersandfromcommunicationsproblemsin
transmittingthemeasuredvaluesbacktotheoperationscontrolcenter.Transducersfrompower
system measurements, like any measurement device, will be subject to errors. If the errors are
small, they may go undetected and can cause misinterpretation by those reading the measured
values. In addition, transducers may have gross measurement errors that render their output
useless. An example of such a gross error might involve having the transducer connected up
backward;thus,givingthenegativeofthevaluebeingmeasured.Finally,thetelemetryequipment

Bychangingthetransformationratio,thevoltageinthesecondarysideofanybuscanbevaried.
Powertransformers,beingusedextensivelyforthecontroloftransmissionandsubtransmission
voltageofanetworkutilizingthisprinciple,maybeeithermanualorautomatic.Thelatter,usually
calledOnLoadTapChangers(OLTC)areusuallyarrangedtoregulatethebusvoltageinorderto
keeptheoperatingvoltageoftheregulatedbuswithinacceptablelimits.
Bychangingthetransformationratio,thevoltageinthesecondarysideofanybuscanbevaried
andthusvoltagecontrolcanbeobtained.Thisconstitutesthemostpopularandwidespreadform
of voltage control at all voltage levels. The secondary voltage is maintained at or very near to
nominal value by the operation of the tap changer, when the voltage of primary transmission
systemisreduced.Thisisfeasibleprovidedthesystemisnotonthestateofextremeshortageof
reactivepower.However,ifloaddemandbecomesexcessivelyheavy,thesecondaryvoltagemay
become unstable even with tap changing; the instability of the voltage is being basically due to
reactivepowershortage.
