Published by Dranetz Technologies, Inc. Website: Dranetz.com PU (Per Unit) Explained PU stands for Per Unit. It is a term that electric utility engineers frequently use, and it was incorporated into IEEE 1159. PU is the percentage formed by dividing the actual voltage by the nominal. For example, a sag to 0.8 pu on a 480V circuitContinue reading “PQ Terms & Definitions”

Investigating Blinky Lights
Published by Dranetz Technologies, Inc., Technical Documents he HDPQ Family of products have a number of trigger mechanisms for capturing different types of power quality phenomena. Most users are familiar with settings for sags and swells, but those typical limits usually don’t capture the “blinky lights” problems. While the Pst (perceptibility short term) parameter will indicate whether the voltageContinue reading “Investigating Blinky Lights”
Ultra–Fast Charging of Electric Bus Fleet and its Impact on Power Quality Parameters
Published by 1. Aleksander CHUDY, 2. Paweł A. MAZUREK, Lublin University of Technology ORCID: 1. 0000-0002-3183-8450, 2. 0000-0002-7098-2084 Abstract. The research focused on one–week long measurement of power quality parameters at the connection point of a 450 kW charging station (pantograph type) in the distribution substation. The bus terminal was equipped with 1200 kVA 15.75/0.42Continue reading “Ultra–Fast Charging of Electric Bus Fleet and its Impact on Power Quality Parameters”
Unipower – About Power Quality
Published by Unipower AB, Metallgatan 4C, 44132 Alingsås, Sweden. Email: info@unipower.se Power quality is a generic term for disturbance-free electricity supply. Deviation from voltage sinusoidal waveform (50 Hz), which may result in equipment being disturbed or damaged, is to be regarded as a power quality disturbance. This means that the more sensitive equipment you connect toContinue reading “Unipower – About Power Quality”
Container Harbour in Gothenburg
Published by Jonny Carlsson, Unipower AB, Case Study: Container Harbour in Gothenburg, Date: November 8th, 2010. http://www.unipower.se The most important problem was the sags that were caused by the container cranes. The cranes created a lot of high reactive power during the start of the lift procedure. The high currents caused high demand on the transformerContinue reading “Container Harbour in Gothenburg”
A Simple LED Lamp with a Stable Luminous Flux Supplied from 230V AC and Free rom Inrush Current
Published by Jacek CHĘCIŃSKI, Zdzisław FILUS, Silesian University of Technology, Department of Electronics, Electrical Engineering and Microelectronics Abstract. Modern replacements for 230V AC lamps with the bases E14 and E27 are mainly based on LEDs. Today the efforts of their designers are concentrated, in particular, on elimination of detrimental effects associated with the flicker characteristicContinue reading “A Simple LED Lamp with a Stable Luminous Flux Supplied from 230V AC and Free rom Inrush Current”
