17–Generator Test System
Figure A–1 shows the major high voltage lines in the 17–generator test system. This test system represents a reduced version of a larger system which was used in a stability study run in 1978 by one of the electric utilities in the state of Iowa for a new generating unit.
The base load–flow system is a model of 862 buses and 1323 lines and transformers. Most of the transmission lines are 345 KV and 161 KV; some of the lines are 230 KV, 115 KV, or 69 KV. The base load–flow model was reduced by a network reduction program (steady state) to a model with 163 buses (of which 30 are terminal buses of the equivalent network) and with 304 lines and transformers (of which 69 are equivalent lines).
