Abstract: GUI (Graphical User Interface) based simulation tool has been developed for power system simulation lab and it can be used as an educational tool for analysis of power system. GUI figure file is developed in MATLAB environment for performance of transmission line, Y bus formation, Power angle curve, Fault studies, line flow and losses. The user can enter the data and obtained the results quickly in the form of data or figures. The advantages of GUI based simulations are  Less time required for execution  Students can solve and verify any power system problems in this area.  The user can observe the effect of changing any parameters on the output data. An educational tool has been developed for the students to check the accuracy of their calculations and to observe the variations of input data and results and waveforms.
Keywords: Graphical user interface, MATLAB, power system analysis

Scope of the Article: Low-power design
