Abstract (EN): In this paper it is studied and analysed the transient stability of a test power network, considering the tripping of one or more generators. It was used the software package TRANsySTEM that the authors developed for transient security assessment of a multimachine power system. These computer programs use the extended equal area criteria formulation. The results obtained with this direct approach were compared with the solutions produced by the Runge-Kutta method. It is also analysed the influence of the sudden increase in the electromagnetic torque in the rotor shaft fatigue life of the remaining generators, when one or more power units are tripped. Finally, some conclusions that provide a valuable contribution to the understanding of the transient security assessment of a multimachine power system are pointed out.
