Interconnected Power System
Introduction
• Active power balance is controlled by the generators.
• Another option - reduce the active power consumption by disconnecting parts
of the load (load shedding), but this is merely an emergency measure and not
common practice.
• Reactive power balance can be controlled by rotating equipment (generators
and motors) and by static components (capacitors and inductors).
• When a generator is supplying a variable load, when suddenly more active or
reactive power is consumed and no control actions are taken (neglecting
losses).
Basics of Power System Control
• Increased active power consumption reduces the frequency
• Because the difference between the voltage angles is rather small,we can
replace sin(δ1-δ2) by δ1-δ2 and cos (δ1-δ2) by 1.
