Abstract :
A mathematical method, Catastrophe Theory, is applied to the problem of electrical power system dynamic stability. It is suggested that this offers a method for the continual monitoring of power system stability margins by the use of visual graphic display produced by a dedicated minicomputer using information monitored from the power system.
