Abstract :
IEEE 1159 describes and defines power quality disturbances. These classifications are widely used in electric power quality monitors. Equipment connected to the ac power system respond not only to these listed disturbances, but to additional parameters that are not defined in IEEE 1159 or other standards. Furthermore, the measurement requirements for capturing and analyzing these phenomena have not been established within IEEE 1159. Descriptions of some example phenomena and measurements that should be defined, and their impact on electrical equipment, are described. Suggestions for future activities within 1159 are provided.
