Abstract
In an electrical supply network containing a generator, critical fluctuations in real power can occur. The load angle of the generator is representative of these fluctuations. The present invention provides a method which measures the real and reactive power flow, the current and the voltage on a line to the generator and feeds these measured values along with reactance values YL and YQ of the generator and line to a computing device. The computing device determines an output signal δ which represents the load angle of the generator and fluctuations in real power. The output signal δ is provided to an indicating device and/or a reactive power compensator.
