Abstract
The paper presents a distribution network fed by multi Distributed Generation (DG) systems. The power quality of such distribution network is analysed in order to see the impact of power quality problems generated from DG systems. This paper addresses the following questions: How does DG differ from conventional power production? What is the impact of DG on the power quality? Given the potential benefits of DG, where will the systems have the greatest advantage? The full analysis of the network using ETAP software is presented in this paper.
