Rationale: Power systems are typically characterized by large size and complex nature. Therefore, its
analysis for various purposes is extremely important. The assessment of load flows under the presence of
complex components, fault analysis of large systems, security assessment, contingency analysis, power
system state estimation and voltage stability have got importance in modern power systems.
