A system and method to evaluate characteristics of transient events in an electrical power system to determine the location of a transient source type, the source type of a transient event, and suggested mitigation measures that might reduce or eliminate the effects of the transient. The electrical power system has a plurality of monitoring devices that each may detect the occurrence of a transient event incident upon the power system. A controller is coupled to the monitoring devices. The monitoring devices measure signal parameter values associated with the transient event, and the location of the transient event is automatically determined by evaluating transient characteristics from each of the recording monitoring devices. Other measurements of signal parameters may be made to determine transient characteristics. The transient characteristics may be used to determine the source of the transient event, the type of transient event, mitigation measures, and the effects or predictive effects of mitigation measures.
