Benchmark Systems forSmall-Signal StabilityAnalysis and Control

This report documents the work of the IEEE PES Task Force (TF) on Benchmark Systems for Stability Controls. The following sections present the objectives of the TF, the guidelines used to select the benchmarks, a brief description of each benchmark system so the reader can select the most suitable system for the intended application, the input data and results for each benchmark system, and a set of conclusions. Detailed descriptions of each system are also presented in the Appendices to this report and in the website1 created by this Task Force to share the data and simulation results related to the benchmark systems. 1 This website is provisionally available at the web address http://www.sel.eesc.usp.br/ieee, but it will be transferred to the PSDP web server as soon as the Task Force work is complete.
