POWER SYSTEM OPERATION AND CONTROL
SUBJECT CODE: 2180909
B.E. 8th SEMESTER
Type of course: Engineering Science (Electrical)
Prerequisite: Basic understanding of structure of the power system and power system analysis.
Rationale: Demand of electrical energy is increasing day by day due to improvement in the life style of
the people in particular and development of the countries in general. On the other hand, conventional
sources of power generation are limited. Under this scenario, the power system network operates in a
stressed condition. Effective management of generation, transmission and distribution of electrical
power is necessary for optimal system operation, for loss minimization and to avoid the unwanted
power cuts. This subject deals with the fundamentals for effective operation and control of the power
system.
