Abstract

This paper presents voltage stability analysis of distributed generation (DG) in mesh distribution network in Power System Analysis Toolbox (PSAT) — free and open source software. Voltage stability analysis of a power system is a necessity, particularly in the planning period of the development or expansion of a power network. The ultimate goal of this paper is to investigate the voltage stability of the 52 buses power system network (Mandalay City) during the expansion of the network. In this paper, a study is being done to expand the power network of the area of Mandalay City. In order to perform the voltage stability analysis, modal analysis as well as PV curves was evaluated based on load flow for selected scenarios. PSAT has been developed to carry out the static voltage stability analysis. And also the dynamic voltage stability analysis has been performed by using time domain simulation with PSAT software.
