| Summary: | Power quality issues have become more important due to increased use of electronics and non-linear loads from equipment in the home to control of huge and costly industrial processes. Power quality measurement equipment is used to enable the power engineers have a better understanding on the power quality events and their effect or consumers. One of such equipment in use is the Series 901 Dranetz Power Harmonic Analyzer. However, this equipment could only display the measured data in the printed form. This report describes the development of PC based software used to interface with the existing equipment. A graphical user interface was also developed that allows better logging and visualization. However, the thorough analysis of power quality will not be covered in this project but another student member will perform them in a different project. The harmonic related project is proposed in view of the frequent power supply disturbance occurring Faculty of Electrical Engineering, UiTM. This project classified under the category of measurement using software development. |
