ABSTRACT
The increase in penetration of distributed generation into power system has made the transient stability an integral aspect of power network analysis. This paper analyses the frequency and voltage responses of a natural gas distributed generation under transient conditions. This analysis involves line to ground, line to line, double line to ground and three phase to ground faults under different load conditions. The distributed generator is modelled and simulated under different loading and fault conditions. The results obtained indicated a deviation in the frequency and voltage of the system from the standard operating values when different loads were added to the system. The deviation increased as the load and fault time increased before it finally returned to its nominal values after the duration of the fault. The implication of these findings is that sensitive equipment needs effective protective mechanism put in place to guard against damaging effect of transient conditions.
