Power quality disturbances lead to severe problems in industries and electrical grids. To mitigate PQ problems, the accurate detection and classification of the possible disturbances are essential. A large number of studies exist in this field. The first research step in these studies is to obtain several distorted signals to test the classification systems. In this regard, the most common trend is the generation of signals from mathematical models. In the literature, several models with significant differences are available. However, there is no integral model that considers all types of distortions. In this dissertation work, an integral mathematical model of power quality disturbances will be developed based on the models available in the literature. The model will include new types of combined disturbances. Almost all types of power quality disturbances will be considered under study. Further, this integral mathematical model of various power quality disturbances will be implemented for the generation of power quality disturbances using MATLAB environment. By using this model various power quality disturbances will be generated in a fast and automatic way. This model aims to facilitate future studies, supporting researchers in the modelling stage
