Abstract :
A new program for performing the computer analysis of industrial power systems is presented. This program can be used for load flow, fault, and machine starting analyses, and to compute, interactively, desired levels of reactive power compensation. A brief review of the application of such programs is given. This program is described, and an example of its application to mine power systems is presented
