Poor power quality — characterized by fluctuations and/or persistently low or high voltages — has far-reaching consequences and should receive much more attention. Like lack of access, poor power quality holds back economic growth. But it is much harder to track and its prevalence is unknown because systems to measure it are not in place. We installed sensors across Nigeria to assess p...
Reactive Power Compensation in Photovoltaic Power Generation: A Case Study 1. Introduction As the world moves towards a greener future, China has set ambitious "Dual Carbon" targets, which have propelled the photovoltaic (PV) power generation industry into an era of unprecedented growth and potential. The State Council's plan for achieving peak carbon emissions by 2030 envisions an installe...
Mitigating Harmonics in Frequency Converters with AHF Frequency converters (VFDs) are indispensable components in modern industrial systems. These devices control the speed and torque of electric motors, enabling greater flexibility and efficiency in operations. However, the use of frequency converters often results in harmonic distortions, which can significantly impact the performance and...
Introduction In today’s technology-driven industries, clean and stable power is the backbone of productivity. Harmonics—distortions caused by non-linear loads like variable frequency drives (VFDs), servers, and renewable energy systems—threaten equipment longevity, energy efficiency, and regulatory compliance. At YT Electric, we engineer advanced power quality solutions to t...
Enhancing Power Quality in UPS Systems Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) systems are essential for maintaining continuous operations in environments such as data centers, hospitals, and industrial facilities. However, the non-linear loads common to UPS systems can introduce harmonic distortions. These distortions not only degrade power quality but may also lead to equipment malfunctions. Y...
