When the FAA updated its JO 6950.27B Power System Studies Order, it reinforced something many engineers already knew: harmonics can’t be ignored. In certain projects, the order specifically calls for harmonic analysis to evaluate waveform distortions from nonlinear loads, especially at the point of common coupling (PCC). Harmonic distortion can degrade power quality, cause overheating […]

If you’ve ever connected two different power quality meters to the same circuit and gotten different results, you’re not alone. It’s an age-old issue in power quality monitoring. And when it happens, the obvious question is: which reading should you trust? That’s where power quality standards come in. But knowing which ones apply, especially in […]
If your power monitoring system is capturing more events than you can make sense of, incorrect settings might be to blame. Dranetz waveshape triggers are a powerful tool to detect step load changes, negative transients, harmonics, and other intermittent fast changes in voltage or current that can affect your power system. Waveshape triggers continually look […]
