This article is part of a multi-part series on how to identify, monitor, diagnose, and deal with harmonics in electrical power systems. Last month’s column discussed how to take the data gathered when ...

If the electronic device you are developing plugs into the wall for power, chances are that you will need to send it to a compliance lab to ensure it meets a variety of international standards such as ...

The power quality of electrical distribution systems has a drastic effect on power regulation and consumption. Power quality includes all aspects of events in the power system that deviate from normal ...

Arteche PQ, Inc. has introduced a complete range of active harmonic filters. This new filter product line achieves 5% total harmonic current distortion (THD) by monitoring the flow of harmonic ...

As the world population grows and energy consumption increases, nations have become increasingly concerned with the future availability of electrical power. One way to minimize the effects of the ...

Scientists in the Middle East have developed a series active filter to improve power quality in grid-tied PV systems, consisting of an inductor, two capacitors, and four transistor-diode pairs. The ...

How to measure harmonics in a power system. Methodologies for reducing power system harmonics. A look at "triplen" harmonics. The IEEE standard 3002.8-2018, “Recommended Practice for Conducting ...

Power companies are increasingly incentivizing better power quality – a shift that is having a significant impact on the data center industry today. Central to this is power factor, a key performance ...
