The principal objective of the paper is to establish the framework for power quality assessment of hydropower generator. The suggested framework states that electric power quality is affected by mechanical faults of power generator like rotor air gap eccentricity, rotor and stator vibration characteristics and unbalance. The power quality was analysed based on harmonic components of every generator pole. The proposed framework is beneficial for diagnosis of hydropower units since it relates electrical and mechanical analysis and provides example of data acquisition program suitable for further investigations.
