POWER QUALITY ISSUES & SOLUTIONS - FELIDAE SYSTEMSFELIDAE SYSTEMS
Power quality refers to how well an electrical system delivers power to devices without loss of performance. Poor power quality can cause devices to malfunction or fail prematurely. Harmonics from nonlinear loads are a major cause of power quality issues, distorting the voltage and current waveforms which increases losses and equipment ratings. Modern systems with power electronics also introduce harmonics, so techniques are needed to suppress distortion for both utilities and users.
This document discusses power quality and defines it as the ability of a power system to supply voltage continuously within tolerances. It outlines various power quality events like sags, swells, interruptions, harmonics, and their causes and effects. It then describes various techniques to mitigate power quality issues, including dynamic voltage restorers, harmonic filters, static VAR compensators, and unified power quality conditioners. Maintaining high power quality improves system efficiency and equipment lifespan while eliminating problems like voltage fluctuations, harmonics, and reactive power issues.
