Software Tool for Voltage Dip Signal Generator

This paper presents a software tool for a three-phase voltage dip signal generator, which can be used to generate waveforms similar to those recorded. The voltage dip signal generator is designed to shape the voltage waveforms for the three phases, using random functions for almost all possible parameters. The advantage of using the generated waveforms instead of real data measurements is that the dip parameters are known, and in this way, it can be detected if the specific algorithms used for voltage dips analysis give correct results. Finally the tool was used to generate some voltage dips with different parameters and characteristics.
