Application of Neural Networks in Power System Security Assessment

Security assessment (SA) refers to the analysis required to determine whether or not a power system can meet specified reliability and security criteria in both transient and steady-state time frames for all credible contingencies. This paper proposed a review in application of artificial neural network (ANN) in power system security assessment. Systems security identification, neural network capabilities, conventional methods and main problems in data generation and main challenges in using ANN have been discussed.
