This paper describes the distribution power system econimical PQMS(Power quality monitoring system) of Utility. Recently, the korea power quality standard has been established based on the IEC Std. By IEC Std., the power quality assessment point is measured in PCC(Point of common coupling). In this case, the utility has to construct PQM system in all customer PCC point and the PQ meter cost would be very high in order to acquire the suitable data. Also the distribution system would be encounter the communication overload problem due to the huge data. Accordingly the utilities could not apply to PQM system in the distribution power system by the cost and communication problem. In this paper, the proposed economical PQMS has the voltage and current signal reiteration function and FFT operation function is transferred the server. Also the voltage and current measurement channels are minimized by a classified substation construction.

The necessity of Power Quality(PQ) Management grow bigger because the disturbance strength in power system is increasing, on the other hand, the tolerance of electrical components is reducing with widely use of the IT and digital equipments. The domestic management standards on power quality are enacted based on the IEC standards in recent. Since the IEC standards defines the measurement and evaluation point on PQ as PCC(Point of Common Coupling) which is normally the point of penetration between customer and power company, the PQ monitoring system(PQMS) should be made to measure and manage the PQ of custom effectively. In this paper, therefore, the economical construction plan on PQMS using the wireless communication channel in distribution automation system is suggested, and the usefulness of the PQMS are shown by analyzing the PQM data with IEC standards.

Power quality monitoring is the cornerstone for power quality analysis, diagnosis and improvement. The measurement of power quality (PQ) evolves from instantaneous metering to continuous monitoring. Furthermore, recent technologies enable us to construct more flexible, reliable, rapid and economical power quality monitoring system (PQMS). Therefore, this paper presents an improved PQMS with a new distributed monitoring structure. The proposed PQMS consists of a PQ meter, PQ analyzer and GUI. The PQ meter only collects raw data and the PQ analyzer performs power quality analysis. It has several advantages compared to conventional structures in economic efficiency, modularity, speed, etc. PQ monitoring algorithms to catch steady-state trends and to detect PQ events are also adapted to the proposed structure. Using the proposed structure and monitoring algorithm, a prototype PQMS is constructed and real-time testing is performed.
