With the continuous development of testing and evaluation of tidal current convertors, power quality assessment is becoming more and more critical. According to the characteristics of Chinese tidal current power generation and power quality standards, this paper proposes a comprehensive evaluation method of power quality based on K-means clustering and a support vector machine. The fundamental purpose of the method is to automatically select the weights of various indicators in the comprehensive assessment of power quality, by which the influence of subjective factors can be eliminated. In order to achieve the above purpose, K-means clustering is used for automatically classifying the operational data into five different categories. Then, a support vector machine is used to study and estimate the relationship of the operational data and categories. Using the method proposed in the paper, the analysis of operational data of a tidal current power generation shows that calculation results can objectively reflect the power quality of the device, and the influence of subjective factors is eliminated. The method can provide a reference for the testing and evaluation of a large amount of tidal current convertors in the future.
