Power quality analysis based on LABVIEW for current power generation system

With the development of the current power generation technology, power quality of the generation system becomes a new problem, because of ocean energy variable and converters with large power electronic device applied. A real-time signal detection and harmonic analysis is great significance to improve power quality. The paper mainly proposes how to use LABVIEW software platform to develop a power quality detection and analysis system to detect the signals from the current power generation. Moreover, a simulation model of the current power generation using MATLAB is built to generate the analog signals, so we can also monitor the analog signals with the power quality system. The system is successfully designed to detect the electric power quality indexes after test results.
