PLAGIARISM POLICY

The Journal of Applied Electrical and Energy System (JPES) is committed to maintaining academic integrity and originality in scholarly publishing.

All submitted manuscripts must represent original work and must not contain plagiarism, inappropriate text reuse, data fabrication, or other forms of academic misconduct.

Originality

Authors must ensure that:

• The manuscript is their original work.

• All relevant sources are properly cited.

• Previously published material is appropriately acknowledged.

• The manuscript has not been submitted simultaneously to another journal.

• Duplicate or redundant publication is avoided.

Plagiarism Screening

Manuscripts submitted to JPES may undergo similarity and plagiarism screening as part of the editorial evaluation process.

A similarity report is used as a supporting tool for editorial assessment. Editorial decisions are not based solely on a numerical similarity percentage. The editorial team considers the nature, location, extent, and source of overlapping content.

Forms of Unacceptable Practice

The following practices are considered unacceptable:

• Copying text without proper citation.

• Presenting another person's ideas or results as one's own.

• Inappropriate reuse of previously published material.

• Duplicate or redundant publication.

• Data fabrication or falsification.

Editorial Action

If plagiarism or significant unethical overlap is identified, the editorial team may:

• Request clarification or revision.

• Reject the manuscript.

• Conduct further investigation.

• Take appropriate editorial action in cases involving published articles.

Authors are responsible for ensuring the originality and academic integrity of their submissions.
