Popis: An iterative method is presented to determine the most probable voltage stability limit by identifying the closest saddle node bifurcation in a probability-loading space starting at the expected initial system state. The iterative method is applied to the probability space to identify the closest saddle node bifurcation by means of the Mahalanobis-Distance. Further the method provides an ellipsoidal load subspace corresponding to the most probable bifurcation. This ellipsoid is a lower bound for the probability of bifurcation. To verify the proposed methodology examples are given and the minimum Mahalanobis-Distance, for dependent and independent load patterns, is compared with the minimum Euclidian distance.
