Abstract
Power quality (PQ) has become an important concern for utility, facility, and consulting engineers in recent years. End-use equipment is more sensitive to disturbances that arise both on the supplying power system and within the customer facilities. Also, this equipment is more interconnected in networks and industrial processes so that the impacts of a problem with any piece of equipment are much more severe. Here, the author describes how information from PQ monitoring systems can help improve the efficiency of operating the system and the reliability of customer operations.
