    Abstract: The first part of this paper presents the basic analyses carried out on Nigerian 330 kV electrical network with distributed generation (DG) penetration. The analyses include load flow, short circuit, transient stability, modal/eigenvalues calculation and harmonics. The proposed network is an expanded network of the present network incorporating win... Show More
