ResumoThe use of Grid-Connected Photovoltaic Systems is increasingly on the rise in Brazil. Faced with this growth, it is necessary to evaluate the impacts of this source in the electric energy systems. Based on this scenario, the present work aims to analyze and quantify the impact of a grid-connected photovoltaic system connection, evaluating the Electric Power Quality indicators based on the levels specified in Module 8 of the Electric Energy Distribution Procedures in the National Electric System. To perform the data collection, an energy analyzer device was installed at the output of the grid-connected system inverter located in the Energy Laboratory of the Federal Rural Semi-Arid University, located in the city of Mossoró-RN. Using the collected data, it was possible to analyze parameters of voltage and current distortion, power factor, active, reactive and apparent power, voltage, frequency variations, and voltage unbalance. It was observed that the criteria analyzed were within the appropriate standards although there were also verified cases that there was an elevation in tension levels. Finally, it is concluded that the impacts caused are relevant within the electric system, and grid connected system performance was satisfactory, although there are still possibilities for improvements.
