This Paper principally portrays that a PowerQuality Monitoring system utilizing LabVIEW is created.Because of the higher utilization of power converters and othernonlinear burdens in industry and by customers all in all, it verywell may be noticed an expanding crumbling of the powerframeworks voltage and current waveforms [1]. The paper‘Power Quality Monitoring using Virtual Instrumentation andLABVIEW’ basically depicts the monitoring of the quality of thepower generated during the process with the help of a virtualenvironment that is LABVIEW. Now this paper is very muchsimple and is based on finding the power factor along withActive, Reactive and Apparent Power. In additional to thatActive/Apparent and Reactive Energies is also found out and thenature of the graph is also found out accordingly. Here we areusing Current and Voltage Transformers as the basic transducersand ideal values of voltage and current is taken and the graph isplotted with respect to voltage/current and the power/energies.The nature of both the graphs is quite different in case of powerit is linearly increasing with the time, whereas in case of theenergies the graph is linear in nature. Also the error andaccuracy is found out with a fluke data which is based on thevalues of fluke instruments.
