Module 3 : Frequency Control in a Power System
Lecture 11 : Definition of Frequency
 
   Recap

   In this lecture you have learnt the following

A system settles to a frequency at which generation is equal to the load plus losses.
 
It is important to distinguish between relative motion between generator rotors and center of inertia (common) movement. Center of inertia movement is dependent only on the load-generation balance and is a useful definition of frequency under transient conditions.
