Abstract: This paper presents a system stability study is the important parameter of economic, reliable and secure power system planning and operation. Power system studies are important during the planning and conceptual design stages of the project as well as during the operating life of the plant periodically. In this system stability study transient stability has a greater importance. In a radial distribution network during severe fault the transient stability of the network is much important which determines the stability of the system. During severe fault the rotor angle deviation of the generator connected to the distribution network is analyzed and is enhanced by adding fault current limiter. Fault Current Limiter (FCL) is a device which limits the prospective fault current when a fault occurs. The reliability of the system is analyzed by simulating the distribution network with a fault, and the transient stability is enhanced using FCL and SVC in ETAP for IEEE 59 bus test System.
