Automatic classification of power quality distortions has gained interest in research due to the proliferation of distributed power systems with renewable sources. To train and test a classification system, data with power quality distortions are required. Most studies generate synthetic data from mathematical equations, since real distortions are difficult to record. A possible alternative is to use public datasets of real disturbances. However, there are strong differences among public datasets. In this paper, existing datasets of power quality distortions were compiled and their main features were analysed and compared. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first work reviewing these datasets. To identify the datasets, the most cited papers on this topic were surveyed. In addition, systematic searches were conducted in four popular scientific repositories. As a result, four available datasets were identified. They included a limited number of samples (20-44) and types of distortions. Sampling frequencies and recording conditions were appropriate and the two main fundamental grid frequencies (50 and 60 Hz) were also considered. Although these datasets are appropriate for partially testing automatic classifiers, a remaining research effort is to provide comprehensive datasets with hundreds of samples and several types of distortions.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
