Coupled nonlinear oscillators, e.g., Kuramoto models, are commonly used to analyze electrical power systems. Recently the cage model from the statistical mechanics of liquids has also been used for the modelling of the dynamics of synchronously connected generation stations. It appears that while the Kuramoto model is good for describing high inertia grid systems, the cage model allows both high and low inertia grids to be modelled. This is demonstrated by comparing both the synchronization time and relaxation towards synchronization of each model of power generating stations by treating the model equations of motion via a common framework rooted in the dynamics of many coupled phase oscillators. A solution of these equations via matrix continued fractions is implemented rendering the characteristic relaxation times of a grid-generator system over a wide range of inertia and damping.
