Abstract

This paper presents heuristic method to find optimal location of PMU to make power system observable. This Optimal PMU Placement (OPP) is optimization problem which has been solved using SA (simulated annealing).This method has been coded in the MATLAB and applied to different IEEE test systems up to 118 buses. Moreover OPP is offline optimization problem.The number of PMUs required is almost one third of system buses however their numbers actually depends on the topology of the Network.
