Financial impact of power quality on Indian Pharmaceutical Industry - Survey results

The paper presents results of PQ survey conducted on Indian Pharmaceutical Industry (IPI) to assess the extent of PQ problems (voltage disturbances in particular) facing this important industry sector. The results of the survey quantify the frequency of occurrence of PQ problems, their impact on manufacturing processes, financial losses resulting from PQ disturbances (i.e., cost of downtime) and management approach to mitigation of PQ problems.
