    Abstract: The primary purpose in constructing equivalents is to represent a portion of a network containing many buses but having only a few "boundary buses" by a reduced network containing only the boundary buses and, perhaps, a few selected buses from within the original sub-network. The equivalent constructed gives an exact reproduction of the self and tr... Show More

    Abstract: The concluding part of this work (Part III) presents the non-probabilistic (deterministic) assessment of failure effects under given contingencies and reliability analysis is an automation and probabilistic extension of contingency evaluation. Also, PowerFactory generation adequacy tool is design specifically for testing of system adequacy using Mo... Show More
