Abstract :
A methodology is presented for the techno-economic optimisation of the industrial plant and utility supply network compatibility in terms of both voltage dip and reliability criteria. The methodology incorporates dip prediction techniques and a method of relating these predictions to actual industrial plant performance and economic losses
