Abstract
In this paper, the available methods and procedures for creating equivalents for the analysis of electromagnetic transients in power systems are presented and discussed. General requirements of power system representation during simulation of electromagnetic transients are shown. The main available procedures are shown, along with an assessment of their advantages and disadvantages. Methods to search for the optimal replacement of structures in time and frequency domains are discussed. Optimization and direct methods in the frequency domain are presented. Each of these methods is discussed with respect to their possible use in determining the structure of the equivalent circuit for the study of electromagnetic phenomena. Methods to reduce a complex power system, as one of the approaches to determining the structure and parameters of the equivalent circuit, are also presented. Contraindications to the search for equivalents in the frequency domain to study electromagnetic transients are discussed. An analysis of methods for the identification of parameters of the equivalents is presented. The latest advances in the search for the structure and parameters of equivalents are presented, particularly the use of artificial neural networks in the process of replacing parts of systems. Finally, the analyses conducted in this study, together with recommendations regarding the choice of the procedure during the search for equivalents for the analysis of electromagnetic transient phenomena, are summarized.

When studying dynamic phenomena in a system, the main focus is on waveforms occurring only in a certain part of the system. This part is defined as the internal system, and the rest is defined as the external system
Summary
Introduction and Abdelali El AroudiHistorical Review of ResearchReceived: 14 December 2021The currently operating interconnected power systems cover large geographic areas and millions of devices. When studying dynamic phenomena in a system, the main focus is on waveforms occurring only in a certain part of the system. Very often, this part is defined as the internal system, and the rest is defined as the external system. Static and dynamic reduction of the external system or its equivalent is a process of reducing the complexity of external models of the system while maintaining its influence on the obtained test results. In this way, complex system models can be significantly reduced with satisfactory accuracy with regard to a given phenomenon
