Abstract

Introduction: In this work, the design of a physical model for the study of electrical energy quality indicators in low-voltage single-phase electrical networks is described. Materials and methods: The proposed model uses elements of modern instrumentation, allowing the measurement of voltages and currents in the system using a Data Acquisition Card and its subsequent processing with the use of a personal computer and Matlab software. Results: The model allows studying non-linear loads that are commonly used in residential and service networks, characterizing them and determining the quality indicators of the technical product. Discussion: The use of this model contributes to the development of Energy Quality laboratory practices, with the appropriate teaching aids for the development of skills and knowledge associated with the quality of electrical energy in low voltage electroenergy systems, which which contributes to the training of undergraduate and graduate professionals in this specialty. Conclusions: It is confirmed that the practices are designed to be carried out virtually, which does not contribute to students developing measurement, modeling and simulation skills of secondary distribution networks and their main loads.
