STATIC STABILITY ASSESSMENT OF THE ELECTRIC POWER SYSTEM DURING THE COURSE OF RAILWAY ELECTRIFICATION
The paper considers the assessment of the static stability of the electric power system when the regime becomes heavier due to the connection of new traction railway substations; and the possibility of increasing the static stability by using reactive power compensation units. It is shown that the installation of additional compensating devices is necessary not only to reduce losses, but also to increase the static voltage stability margin of the electric power system.
