z-Voltage Stability Analysis

Voltage collapse is still the biggest single threat to the transmission system. It is
generally characterized by loss of a stable operating point as well as by the
deterioration of voltage levels in and around the electrical center of the region
undergoing voltage collapse.
Voltage collapse, a form of voltage instability, commonly occurs as a result of reactive
power deficiency. Unmitigated rotor angle instability can also result in voltage
instability. Voltage stability is therefore the ability of power system to maintain steady
voltages at all buses in the system after being subjected to a disturbance from a
given initial operating condition .
