In era of automation, the power quality disturbances are increasing day by day with use of electronics components or devices which are source of harmonics. Residential, commercial and industrial consumers are affected by deprived power quality. Levels of power quality disturbances depend upon type of loading in a system. Newly installed equipment or good quality equipment also get affected by other old equipments in electrical network. It happens due to shared infrastructure. Power quality monitoring and analysis of electrical network is important to maintain stability and reliability of power system. It also helps to reduce the heavy financial losses to customer and major breakdown of system equipment. The aim of this study is to identify and measures power quality disturbances like voltage, current imbalance, harmonics, quality of power factor and reactive power factor in educational institute campus. This paper present the results of study conducted on power quality analysis for military college of engineering Pune. Readings are taken with help of power quality analyzer. Readings are obtained in form of excel file in exponential format. Study and analysis of obtained readings is done for power quality parameters.
