Power Quality Analysis

CareLabs examines the quality of the power for businesses in Sweden. Our goal is to prevent your electrical appliances, equipment, and systems from malfunctioning as a result of erratic power sources.

Many organizations and an increasing number of individual users are deploying energy-sensitive data collection, monitoring, and instrumentation systems. Despite the fact that a wide range of voltage changes might occur with distributed energy, few electrical devices are built to handle them. The majority of electrical equipment is designed to handle certain supply variations. Experts from CareLabs are available to assist with problems with power quality, such as equipment installation, control, protection, and power conditioning.   

Power Quality Analysis Serves the Following Purposes:
  • The method of locating problems in an electrical system or a load.
  • Examining the workplace will help simulate techniques for solving issues with power quality.
  • Assessing the load equipment’s functionality and performance
  • The performance and power factor of the machine should be improved.
  • Don’t expend excessive energy.
  • To prevent things from breaking down and dying.
  • Eliminating power-decreasing harmonics, spikes, and transients.
  • Stop frozen PLCs and voltage/frequency spikes.
  • To keep hot transformers, uncomfortable journeys, and bursting capacitors at bay.
  • You should drastically reduce your utility costs.
  • Lengthen the usable life of the electrical network and its parts.
  • Make sure the electrical equipment can tolerate changes by doing an inspection.
Sweden Needs to Perform an Evaluation of the Quality of Its Power:

Every electrical network occasionally experiences power outages, which occur more often during storms, natural disasters, or incidents that destroy power lines.

It is rather common to change the electrical energy source. Changes, interruptions, and distortions in the way electricity is distributed across an electrical network can be divided into three groups:

1. A frequency deviation occurs when a frequency departs from its natural frequency range.

2.Voltage disruptions occur when the voltage’s amplitude exceeds the acceptable range while the voltage’s shape remains unchanged.

2.1Short-term fluctuations include voltage dips and spikes that last up to a minute.

2.2 Under- and over-voltage conditions are examples of longer-lasting variations.

2.3 Unbalanced voltage: When the load is not distributed uniformly across the phases, the equipment overheats and this situation results.

2.4 Voltage difference between the neutral and ground

3. Distortions, which happen when the voltage’s form is not even or smooth, cause disturbances.

3.1 Harmonics and inter-harmonics in electrical equipment cause overheating, power loss, inefficient power use, and resonance problems.

3.2 Transients that are short-lived and last less than a tenth of a second have the potential to damage switch contact surfaces, impair system functionality, and precipitate the failure of motor drives and control systems.

What Is the Process of Power Quality Analysis?

Finding different power quality concerns requires using a variety of strategies. These methods consist of:

  • Potential harmonic challenges are identified and forecasted in harmonic analysis utilizing computer algorithms and reduction techniques.
  • Analysis of Transients and Surges: This inquiry will identify transients and surges.
  • This study would track the magnitude and course of the voltage as well as its transient peaks and dips.
  • The purpose of this investigation is to determine the ideal reactive power at the distribution and load ends.
  • Captive power would be evaluated and coordinated to fulfil demand while using less fuel and energy.
  • Load Flow Study: This study projects power flow magnitudes, power factors, voltage levels, and losses in system branches based on operating conditions.
