A conventional power system stabilizer (PSS) is a control device used in power systems to enhance the stability of synchronous generators by damping oscillations in the system's rotor angle. It achieves this by adjusting the generator's output in response to changes in system frequency and rotor speed, thereby providing critical support during disturbances. This type of stabilizer operates primarily through feedback control and aims to improve transient stability and dampen low-frequency oscillations that can arise during system disturbances.
congrats on reading the definition of conventional pss. now let's actually learn it.
