Abstract

Application of deregulation policy in power systems results in growing attention regarding power quality issues. This fact highlights the needs of a new monitoring strategy, which is capable of tracking, detecting, classifying and identifying the cause of power quality events. In this paper, a new monitoring strategy for power quality events is proposed. This new strategy will be implemented using a distributed power quality monitoring nodes, which will be connected via ethernet connection to a central diagnosis unit.
