Abstract: The emergence of power quality topic in power systems has gained an increased research interest due to its widespread applicability in different applications. Since the quality of power is devalued due to various disturbances, detection of such disturbances is required. This paper provides refined power quality disturbances classification mechanism which is associated with various compositions like the presence of noise, and accumulation of two or more disturbances. Considering the both linear and non-linear dependencies between PQDs, two optimal feature extraction techniques, Joint Mutual Information as well as Correlation based feature selection, are proposed. These optimal set of features are processed for PQDs classification by employing pair of supervised learning algorithms, Support Vector Machine (SVM) along with Decision Tree (DT). Extensive simulations are conducted over different PQ disturbances at different Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR) levels give away the performance constructiveness of proposed approach. The robustness is derived through the provision of a tradeoff between the computational time and classification accuracy.
