3. Problems of Reconnection of Decentralized Power Energy Sources to Distribution Grid Problems of reconnections of wind power plant: convention sources must be „on“ and prepared, in the case of wind power plants outage; dependence on actual meteorological situation; relatively small power of wind power plants; they are not possible to operate when the wind velocity is above 30 m/s or below 3 m/s. Problems of reconnections of solar power plants: convention sources must be „on“ and prepared, in the case of solar power plants outage; problems with the season variations of sunlight (in December is 7-times weaker than in July); difference between night and day is very significant Problems of reconnections of water power plants: they generate electric power only when the water flow is in allowable range;

38. Conclusion using of EMTP-ATP it is possible to relatively quickly consider connectivity of new power source (voltage change, short-circuit ratio, overvoltage,...); there were confirmed theoretical assumptions that the most important points with the highest quantity change are the closest branches to connection node, i.e.: - the highest increasing of voltage magnitude is in the node of source connection, - the highest increasing of short-circuit current is in the node of source connection, if there were connected 3 sources, the voltage in the power system was increased to permitted maximum voltage, and then it is possible to connect another load to the grid without significant complications, the similar procedure can be used for various small power systems
