2. Electric power quality - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_power_quality

   Electric power quality is the degree to which the voltage, frequency, and waveform of a power supply system conform to established specifications. Good power quality can be defined as a steady supply voltage that stays within the prescribed range, steady AC frequency close to the rated value, and smooth voltage curve waveform (which resembles a sine wave).

3. Harmonics (electrical power) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harmonics_(electrical_power)

   Harmonic frequencies are produced by the action of non-linear loads such as rectifiers, discharge lighting, or saturated electric machines. They are a frequent cause of power quality problems and can result in increased equipment and conductor heating, misfiring in variable speed drives, and torque pulsations in motors and generators.

4. Conducted emissions - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conducted_emissions

   It measures power quality of AC mains for different voltage levels as described in common EMC test standards. By definition, the AC harmonic is a multiple of the electrical quantity (voltage or current) at multiples of the fundamental frequency of the system, produced by the action of non-linear loads such as rectifier , lighting , or saturated ...

5. Q factor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Q_factor

   The Q factor is a parameter that describes the resonance behavior of an underdamped harmonic oscillator (resonator). Sinusoidally driven resonators having higher Q factors resonate with greater amplitudes (at the resonant frequency) but have a smaller range of frequencies around that frequency for which they resonate; the range of frequencies for which the oscillator resonates is called the ...

6. Voltage optimisation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voltage_optimisation

   Harmonics are caused by non-linear loads, which include power supplies for computer equipment, variable speed drives, and discharge lighting. "Triplen" harmonics (odd multiples of the third harmonic) result when phase voltages are not balanced in a three phase power systems and add in the neutral, causing wasteful currents to flow. [5]

7. Ripple (electrical) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ripple_(electrical)

   Various properties of ripple voltage may be important depending on application: the equation of the ripple for Fourier analysis to determine the constituent harmonics; the peak (usually peak-to-peak) value of the voltage; the root mean square (RMS) value of the voltage which is a component of power transmitted; the ripple factor γ, the ratio ...

8. Power system simulation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_system_simulation

   A well-defined power systems study requirement is critical to the success of any project as it will reduce the challenge of selecting the qualified service provider and the right analysis software. The system study specification describes the project scope, analysis types, and the required deliverable.

9. PQDIF - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PQDIF

   The file format is designed to represent all power quality phenomena identified in IEEE Std 1159, [5] which is a recommended practice on monitoring electric power quality. PQDIF can be used to represent other power related measurement data and is extensible to other data types as well.
