As Featured in EC&M: How to Plan a Power Quality Survey That Works

The latest article in EC&M’s PQ Newsbeat covers something that’s often overlooked: planning.

“Planning and Preparing a Power Quality Survey” by Ross Ignall, Director of Business Development and Marketing, walks through the steps to take before deploying any instruments. From identifying symptoms and setting objectives to knowing what to monitor—and for how long—the article focuses on the decisions that set up a survey for success.

This is the second in a three-part series:

• Part 1: Getting Started with Power Quality Surveys
  Introduced the “when and why” of PQ surveys, including signs of trouble and what triggers an investigation.
• Part 2: Planning and Preparing a Power Quality Survey
  Focuses on pre-survey prep: how to identify where to monitor, what to look for, and how to avoid wasted effort.
• Part 3: Conducting the PQ Survey and Taking Corrective Action
  Coming in January 2026, this article will cover field deployment and what to do once the data is in.

If you’re tasked with keeping systems running and faults at bay, this article is worth your time.
