Abstract

Flicker is one of the major power quality event. The effect of flicker disturbance has been seen in the power distribution networks nowadays. Voltage variations so called flicker mainly brings negative effects human eye, but also it brings some malfunctions and misoperations to the sensitive electrical equipments. In order to provide proper corrective measures for flicker, the first step is precisely detection of flicker source. Therefore, this paper gives a review of flicker source detection methods based on IEC 61000-4-15 flickermeter and signal processing methods like Fast Fourier Transform (FFT), Wavelet Transform (WT) and Hilbert-Huang Transform.
