IV. RESULTS
The proposed power quality assessment method
presented is designed to detect and classify the eleven PQ
disturbances such as undervoltage, overvoltage, voltage sag
or dip, voltage swell, flicker, interruption, harmonics,
oscillatory transients, notch and spike. The fundamental
frequency of each signal is 50 Hz and the sampling
frequency is 3200Hz, i.e., 64 samples for each cycle [2].

Considering the overall duration of the signals as 0.2 seconds
A suitable threshold value is essential for disturbance
except for long duration voltage variations. The input signal
detection because of noise, sudden load changes as faults and
is voltage signal, the disturbance is detected by voltage slope
other uncertainties. Fig.1 shows the example of disturbance
detection method and then processed for classification using
