Abstract

In deregulated power market, the parameters of the power system are to be operated nearer to the rated values to meet up the load. To improve system security with existing power lines, the flexible AC transmission system (FACTS) devices are the best alternatives. In this work, the line power flow factor and bus voltage deviations are considered as power system security indices for the system security problem. The proposed algorithm to improve the security is fuzzy adaptive gravitational search algorithm (FAGSA), as gravitational search algorithm (GSA) is wearisome to resolve the best operating setting of FACTS due to the selection of gravitational constant (G). To alleviate this difficulty, FAGSA is selected to tune the G with the help of fuzzy rules. This method is validated on standard IEEE 14 bus system, and the effectiveness is also tested under three-phase symmetrical fault condition.
