Abstract :
This paper presents a smart power quality data a analyzer (S-PQDA) or power quality diagnosis software (PQDS) tool that performs power quality (PQ) diagnosis on the PQ disturbance data recorded by an online PQ monitoring system. The software tool enables power utility engineers to perform automatic PQ disturbance detection, classification and diagnosis of the disturbances. The PQDS also assists the power utility engineers in identifying the existence of incipient faults due to partial discharges in the cable compartment. The overall accuracy of the software in performing PQ diagnosis is 96.4%.
