Abstract

The main aim of this paper is to reduce the damping oscillations. In this paper a new model is proposed to show the interaction between load frequency oscillations and automatic voltage regulator loops and to achieve more accuracy in dynamic and steady state response. The major problem arising from large scale electric power system interconnection is the low frequency oscillation of interconnected system. In order to maintain all the scheduled power transactions to the constant value, automatic generation control of a power system with closed loop feedback is used. By using the data acquisition system which conducts the actual operating conditions of the systems and the errors are computed. In ordered to maintain the level of voltage and frequency automatic generation control method through LFC loops is used.
