How can Power Quality problems be detected?
Determining the exact problems requires sophisticated electronic test equipment. The following symptoms are indicators of Power Quality problems: • A piece of equipment misoperates at the same time of day. • Circuit breakers trip without being overloaded. • Equipment fails during a thunderstorm. • Automated systems stop for no apparent reason. • Electronic systems fail or fail to operate on a frequent basis. • Electronic systems work in one location but not in another location. • Lights dim or blink and electronic systems misoperate.
