Abstract (EN): In this paper it is studied the influence of the transient stability performance indices on a contingency screening and ranking algorithm. The proposed methodology consists of three modules, with different complexity levels. Due to the large number of contingencies scenarios and calculations required, the application of a hybrid method to assess the system stability reduces drastically the computing time. The single dynamic security indices are obtained as a sub product of the hybrid method with a very reduce computing effort. The composed security indices are evaluated combining the single dynamic indices using weights. These indices are used to select, classify and rank the contingencies in accordance with the system security level. The developed methodology was applied to study the transient stability of the IEEE 17 machines test power system.
