Power quality metering for industrial efficiency In today's competitive industrial landscape, ensuring an uninterrupted, stable, and efficient power supply is essential. Power quality issues such as voltage fluctuations, harmonic distortion, and poor power factor can lead to significant operational downtime, costly equipment repairs, and reduced energy efficiency. Power quality metering is a criti...
What are Reactive Power and Reactive Power compensation? Reactive power is a key part of AC electrical systems—it’s the energy that flows back and forth between the power source and the load. Unlike active power, which does the actual work like powering lights or running machines, reactive power doesn’t directly get used up. But it plays a crucial role in keeping voltage levels s...
Power Factor Correction Methods Efficient energy management has become a cornerstone of modern industries and commercial facilities. Among the various strategies to optimize energy usage, Power Factor Correction (PFC) stands out as a critical approach for reducing energy losses, improving power quality, and minimizing costs. Reactive power compensation methods play a vital role in achieving...
Power Quality Challenges: An Invisible Barrier to Economic Growth Electricity access has made significant strides across the globe, and more people than ever are connecting to the power grid. However, even in regions where access is available, many face a more insidious issue: poor power quality. This issue, which is often less visible than frequent power outages, presents a major challenge...
Clean Power Solutions for Modern Office Towers The power networks in today’s skyscrapers and large office buildings face increasingly complex challenges. From nonlinear loads like elevators, LED lighting, and IT systems to harmonic pollution affecting the power supply's quality, maintaining optimal power quality is critical. This blog explores how the YTPQC Active Harmonic Filters effectivel...
Mitigating Harmonics to Maintain Data Center Reliability Data center operations depend heavily on reliable electric power, as even minor disruptions in power quality can significantly affect performance and stability. Industry studies show that approximately 33% of all data center outages result from power quality issues. These problems cause costly downtime. They can also lead to data corruption,...
Advantages of YT Electric SVC Over Capacitor Banks In industrial and commercial power systems, maintaining a balanced power factor is critical for efficient operation, reduced energy costs, and overall system stability. Reactive power compensation is a key technique used to improve power factor and stabilize the voltage profile of the system. Traditionally, capacitor banks have been w...
I. INTRODUCTION A small entity of electrical network known as Microgrid provides secure and reliable energy supply to the critical loads of communities. It also provides a sustainable and self dependent energy supply to communities in remote area where there is no access or facility for main grid power system. MG should be capable of operating either in on-gird or off-grid mode. MG incorporates se...
