Abstract

The purpose of this project is try to analyze and identify voltage sags problem in power quality especially in a distribution system. There are a lot of power quality problems occurred in a reality such as harmonic distortion, voltage swell and etc. In this project, it focused on voltage sags where we will identify briefly what is voltage sags in power quality problems. Voltage sags also known as voltage dips can define as a sudden reduction of the voltage at a point in the electrical system followed by a voltage recovery after a short period of time. Voltage sags in a large distribution system occurs by fault or load behavior. If there is a fault, any clearing of the faults provided interruptions and produce voltage sags. Voltage sags are a remarkable source of economic losses. PSCAD software will be used to determine voltage sags in a distribution system. To run the simulation, all the factors that caused the voltage sags have to be identified. During simulation, the location, type of fault, faults clearing time and electrical configuration will be analyze. Through out this simulation, voltages sags problems can be solve and mitigate as well earn fewer losses especially in distribution system.
