The concern towards power quality has increased rapidly due to the amount of losses it created. Throughout the world, many researchers have proposed a study on various aspects of power quality, which may be used to overcome or reduce the effects. In this paper, a project initiated by the Energy Commission of Malaysia has been carried out to find the level of power quality in Malaysia as well as to estimate the cost associated with power quality. The Malaysian data on power quality will be recorded and collected by using the standards compliance equipments, Fluke 1750. The advanced in the communication network has made this project successful as a large amount of data can be downloaded online. The analysis of the recorded data can be made systematically as much software is available in the market which helps the consultant to develop a more user friendly database. The findings from this project will be used to determine the best possible solution for the national interest.
