Read morePower Quality (Voltage Quality) is primarily about the quality of the voltage (Voltage) coming out of the socket: is the sine wave form [...]
Read moreThis cannot be said without measurement. There are specific standards such as EN 50160 (for the voltage you [...]
Read moreYou can think of harmonics as 'noise' or contamination on your power grid. They are frequencies that deviate from the standard 50Hz. [...]
Read moreSimple measurements (such as voltage and current) can be done by yourself. However, correct Power Quality diagnosis requires specialist [...]
Read moreYes, absolutely. Poor Power Quality, such as high levels of reactive current or harmonic contamination, causes additional energy losses in [...]
Read moreOnly partly. The grid operator is responsible for the quality up to your meter. Any contamination created behind the meter [...]
Read moreIt always starts with insight. A thorough Power Quality measurement reveals savings opportunities. Based on this, we create a [...]
Read moreTraditional capacitor banks only compensate the fundamental frequency (50Hz). In modern networks with lots of electronics (harmonics), these banks can even resonate [...]
