This paper proposes a new method for transient stability analysis in terms of measuring critical clearing time using grid-computing technology. Grid computing is a highly developed system for jointly solving collaborative complex problems; those are required to solve in limited time and therefore they need high performance computing. Probabilistic transient stability analysis is one such application, which requires a lot of computation for accurate results. This paper presents the grid computing based approach for this purpose, which is able to measure the critical clearing time through time domain simulation by using this method. A prototype system is developed in our research lab in order to deploy this technique. Experiments are performed on the prototype grid for probabilistic transient stability analysis on New England 39 bus test system. Results show that this method has capability of providing accurate results with better performance.
