The proposed method allows us to classify multistage and real voltage dips when measurement errors or transients are present in the recorded data. Different real voltage dips are used to assess this method, comparing the results with previous approaches. For visualization purposes, a voltage-space vector representation is introduced in order to clarify the global voltage dip evolution along the time. The classification of all the voltage dips, measured from a one-year field measurement campaign in wind farms located in the Spanish region of Castilla-La Mancha, is also presented and characterized according to the proposed method. %K Ingeniería Eléctrica %K Calidad de la energía %K Bajada de tensión %K Generación de energía eólica %K Power quality %K Voltage dip %K Wind power generation %~ GOEDOC, SUB GOETTINGEN
