  • Abstract
    It is envisaged that the use of photovoltaic (PV) dispersed generation will become more widespread in the near future due to advances in PV technology which will lead to cost reductions. In order to gain an understanding of the effects that PV dispersed generation may have upon the quality of electric power, this paper presents a power quality study performed on a PV generator. The study includes measured waveforms, trends, a statistical analysis of the measurements and the results of a connection/disconnection test
