These, system stability has been addressed by several previous CIGRE however, do not completely reflect current industry needs, ex- and IEEE Task Force reports. These earlier efforts, however, periences, and understanding. In particular, definitions are not do not completely reflect current industry needs, experiences and understanding. In particular, the definitions are not precise precise and the classifications do not encompass all practical in- and the classifications do not encompass all practical instability stability scenarios. scenarios. This report is the result of long deliberations of the Task Force This report developed by a Task Force, set up jointly by the set up jointly by the CIGRE Study Committee 38 and the IEEE CIGRE Study Committee 38 and the IEEE Power System Dynamic Performance Committee, addresses the issue of stability definition Power System Dynamic Performance Committee.
