Comprehensive guide to power quality problems, surge protection, and voltage issues. Protect your equipment and operations.
Power Quality Problems
Understanding power problems is the first step to protecting your equipment.
📉
Voltage Sag/Brownout
Voltage drop below 90% for >1 cycle
Cause: Heavy load starts, utility problems
Impact: Equipment shutdown, data loss
📈
Voltage Surge
Voltage spike above 110% for >1 cycle
Cause: Load switching, lightning
Impact: Component damage, fires
⚡
Transient/Spike
Microsecond high-voltage spike
Cause: Lightning, switching
Impact: Electronic damage, data corruption
〰️
Harmonics
Distorted waveform from non-linear loads
Cause: VFDs, computers, LED lights
Impact: Overheating, false trips
🔄
Frequency Variation
Deviation from 50Hz standard
Cause: Generator problems, grid instability
Impact: Motor speed changes, clock drift
📻
Electrical Noise
High-frequency interference on power line
Cause: Motors, radio transmitters
Impact: Data errors, equipment malfunction
