ABSTRACT
This paper presents evaluation of P-V curve for the determination of the point of power system voltage collapse.Continuation power flow is used to obtain P-V curve of an interconnected electric power system. Continuation power flow starting with initial operating point and increasing load to the maximum loading point to obtain P-V data is implemented .Critical Voltages are found for the weakest buses from the results.A standard power flow simulation tool Power World Simulator is used to run continuation power flow.
