Abstract--The impact of wind generation on the electrical system should be assessed to guarantee error free operation and good power quality indicia. In this paper switching transients within wind generation units have been analyzed. Transients were simulated and measured. A Prony model of the signal and a nonlinear regression method were applied to determine transients' parameters for various operation modes of the wind generator. Both methods delivered quite satisfactory results, but the regression method was sensitive to local minima.
