Power Quality and Distributed Generation

This book is intended as reading material to enhance the fundamentals of power quality issues, standards and various solutions. The importance of power quality in the distributed generation systems is also discussed as are various power quality issues such as sag, swell, interruptions, transients, harmonics etc.

The fundamentals of power quality compensation along with carious power electronics-based solutions for power quality are discussed. The proliferation of distributed generation in the systems raises a question on power quality caused by these systems as well as the effect of power quality issues on distributed generation systems.
