Abstract

The increasing demand for high power quality has increased the demand for power quality monitoring tools. The voltage performance monitoring for each feeder is one of the needs found by the utility companies. Since it is not economically viable to measure every single node in the system, it is necessary to use estimation techniques in order to get all needed information with a reduced the number of meters. These are basically interpolation techniques. Each interpolation provides different performance of estimations accordingly the application. In this work, it is proposed a non-linear non-parametric method which was found to get the best voltage estimates of feeders in relation to other more usual techniques. Comparative results for different methodologies in a hypothetic system are presented and discussed.
