Voltage and current data for IEC 62600-30 power quality monitoring from the Mutriku Wave Power Plant and Lir National Ocean Test Facility electrical laboratory

This Technical Note describes the electrical data collected from the Mutriku Wave Power Plant (MWPP) and the Lir National Ocean Test Facility (NOTF) electrical laboratory at the MaREI Centre in the Environmental Research Institute, at University College Cork.

In summary, the electrical data collect is for the purpose of analysing the power quality output of a Wave Energy Converter (WEC). The data includes voltage and current signals from the output of a WEC sampled at 15 kHz from the MWPP and a WEC emulator sampled at 20 kHz from the Lir NOTF electrical laboratory. There are 24 datasets from the MWPP taken at various sea state conditions, and there are 56 datasets from the Lir NOTF which are taken with at various sea state conditions, with different control laws, and grid connections.

This data is published for purpose of power quality analysis and comparison for future tests. For OPERA, power quality analysis was performed as part of WP5 T5.2 and T5.5, and presented in depth in Deliverables D5.2 and D5.4.
