Abstract

As an important part of power systems, power transmission and transformation system involves various equipments, complicated structure and operation modes, and its reliability level has a significant influence on the reliability of the whole system. The paper proposes a practical method for reliability evaluation of power transmission and transformation system based on minimum cut sets. The algorithm, based on topological structure and reliability data without power flow, analyses the reliability of system by different voltage grades. In each voltage grade analysis, the method resolves minimum path sets by depth first search method, gets minimum cut sets, and calculates reliability index. The method considers three states involved normal operating, schedule repair and fault repair, and it makes the evaluation process much more reasonable and effective as it resolves branch-node mixed cut sets. The paper verifies the effectiveness of the algorithm by the test of IEEE-RTS 79 system
