TL;DR: In this paper, an extended voltage phasors approach (EVPA) is proposed for placement of FACTS controllers in power systems, which locates the critical buses/line segments.
Abstract: In this paper, a new method called the extended voltage phasors approach (EVPA) is proposed for placement of FACTS controllers in power systems. While the voltage phasors approach (VPA) identifies only the critical paths from the voltage stability viewpoint, the proposed method additionally locates the critical buses/line segments. The results of EVPA are compared with the well-established line flow index (LFI) method for nine-bus, 39-bus, and 68-bus systems. It is shown that the EVPA provides accurate indication for the placement of FACTS controllers.

TL;DR: This paper presents a new structure for the software elements used at the distribution control center that is modular in nature and permits the development of the distribution automation system in a phased manner by the different vendors.
Abstract: This paper presents a new structure for the software elements used at the distribution control center. The proposed software structure is modular in nature and permits the development of the distribution automation system in a phased manner by the different vendors. It has been successfully implemented in an actual 33/11 kV substation.
