A novel approach for the simulation of power quality stationary disturbances in electric power systems

This paper presents a method for calculation of stationary Power Quality Disturbances-PQD based on measurements, distribution system modeling and Monte Carlo techniques. A method to simulate PQD with specific random behavior based on Perfect Sampling is proposed. Three non-sinusoidal conditions power quantities are employed to illustrate the proposed methodology, and a proposal for statistical interpretation of simulated results is presented as well.
