Sumario:Prospect of measuring Neutral Triple Gauge Boson Couplings(NTGC) in $q\overline{q} \rightarrow ZZ \rightarrow$ 4 leptons (muons and electrons) events in ATLAS is presented. This is done through reconstructing the Transverse momentum($P_{t}$) distribution of the Z Boson. The optimal observable variable was also used as a cross check. The limits on possible NTGC are extracted by binning the $P_{t}$ distribution and using Poisson statistics to make a likelihood fit. The results presented correspond to an integrated luminosity of 100$\rm{fb^{-1}}$ and used events passing the full ATLAS simulation program.
