This thesis describes an investigation into the power quality of wind turbines and the impacts this could have on distribution networks. The main focus is on voltage fluctuations and flicker as grid connected wind turbines could have a huge impact on these, especially when connected to weak distribution networks. 2014-07-31T10:54:41Z 2014-07-31T10:54:41Z 2005 Master Thesis Masters MSc http://hdl.handle.net/11427/5157 eng application/pdf Department of Electrical Engineering Faculty of Engineering and the Built Environment University of Cape Town
