System Losses
Ploss = IT2 R (Watts)
Qloss = IT2 X (VARs)
VAR loss
Increases in proportion to the square of the total current.
Is approximately 2 to 25 times larger than Watt loss.

Voltage Stability
Common Definitions
Voltage stability - ability of a power system to maintain steady voltages
at all the buses in the system after disturbance.
Voltage collapse - A condition of a blackout or abnormally low voltages
in significant part of the power system.
Short term voltage stability - involves the dynamics of fast acting load
components such as induction motors, electronically controlled loads,
and HVDC converters.
Long term voltage stability - involves slower acting equipments such
as tap-changing transformer, thermostatically controlled loads, and
generator limiters.
