Abstract: The paper here describes the importance of Genetic algorithm (GA) in solving PMUs problem and the comparison of the results is done with Linear programming Integer method. To get the results for the proposed method, IEEE-7 and IEEE-14 bus bars of the systems are considered. From the simulation result, it is observed that the suggested method overcomes the problem of held in local minima and takes less time which saves the CPU computation time greatly.
