Abstract

The momentum of today is focused on smart grid facilities that allow green energies to be used in electrical networks. But an important issue is to have powerful tools at hand able to measure power quality parameters in a flexible way in such grids. This paper present a flexible system designed and implemented to monitor power quality parameters in the power grid. Not only real time monitoring was taken into account but also a build-in database was designed for inspections and long term statistics. Different measurement standards can be used in order to provide flexible information in energy measurements.
