Dranetz HDPQ Plus & SP Products and IEEE 519-2014

Published by Dranetz Technologies, Inc., Application Note Introduction IEEE Std. 519-2014, IEEE Recommended Practice and Requirements for Harmonic Control in Electric Power Systems is the most current recommended practice from the IEEE related to harmonics measurement and compliance. Although the recommended practices from the IEEE are usually only followed in North America, IEEE 519-2014 is usedContinue reading “Dranetz HDPQ Plus & SP Products and IEEE 519-2014”

What is Short Circuit Analysis, and Why is it Done?

Published by Carelabs (Carelabz), Website: carelabz.com A Short circuit analysis is used to determine the magnitude of short circuit current, the system is capable of producing, and compares that magnitude with the interrupting rating of the overcurrent protective devices (OCPD). Since the interrupting ratings are based by the standards, the methods used in conducting a short circuitContinue reading “What is Short Circuit Analysis, and Why is it Done?”

Section 4: System Voltage Considerations

Published by Bill Brown, P.E., Square D Engineering Services. Basic Principles The selection of system voltages is crucial to successful power system design. Reference [1] lists the standard voltages for the United States and their ranges. The nominal voltages from [1] are given in table 4-1. As can be seen, ANSI C84.1-1989 divides system voltagesContinue reading “Section 4: System Voltage Considerations”
