Decision tree –pruned PG13>=1800.8 PG4<=309 PG77>=668.2 PG6<=744.18 PG11<=1786.44 PG65_1<=973.2 PG35>=2808.8 PG40<=1363.1 Conclusions • The constraints depend upon how the power is distributed among the generators. • New constraints in addition to the existing ones appear here where all the cases are considered. • Finally, above 60GW, the system is highly stressed. 5-24 Thanks! 5-25
