Abstract
The potential for voltage collapse in the Puget Sound area is analyzed . Shunt and series compensation schemes, as well as undervoltage load shedding, are evaluated. Twenty-five minute time simulations of the Pu get Sound area system are presented, showing interaction of load dynam ics with LTCs, switched compensation and protective equipment. Results and analysis are relevant to utilities worldwide which must address s imilar concerns.
