In an interconnected bulk power system, wide‐area measurement system (WAMS) can provide abundant remote measurement for the coordinated control system. However, WAMS data have obvious time delays, which affect the performance of the control system and should be properly considered. Time‐delay stability margin (TDSM) is an index to reflect the maximum delay that a time‐delay system can sustain without losing its stability. To construct a coordinated control system based on WAMS data, it is crucial to accurately and rapidly determine the TDSM value. In this paper, a novel Jordan‐Taylor‐Schur (JTS) approach to determine the TDSM value of power system is proposed. It consists of three, Jordan standardization, Taylor separation and Schur simplification. With the three procedures of this method, the model dimension of time‐delay system can be reduced, and the stability criterion derivation can be rebuilt to omit some unnecessary variables so that both the computational efficiency and accuracy can be boosted. Further, it is worth highlighting that the proposed method can be applied to various Lyapunov‐based stability criteria to improve their efficiency with small errors. Finally, three power systems with time delays have been used to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.
