GENERATOR POWER QUALITY SURVEYS UK

TESTING AND DIAGNOSIS

Diesel generator power quality testing and surveys from WBPS

WHY DOES MY GENERATOR NEED TO HAVE POWER QUALITY SURVEYS?

Poor or unstable power quality has a number of adverse effects on an electrical system. These include; higher than average energy costs, damage or reduction in the longevity of the equipment, increased carbon output and possible total electrical failure. Our engineers are available to conduct power quality surveys throughout the UK. Using the very latest techniques, we can carry out a complete survey of the electrical system and make the necessary recommendations to restore a power supply to its most efficient function.

WHAT IS POWER QUALITY?

Power quality is a measure of the strength and stability of an electrical power supply. It is often expressed in terms of voltage, which should remain within a certain range to avoid damaging electrical equipment. Power quality can be affected by a number of factors, including surges and fluctuations. To ensure reliable power quality, generator operators must monitor the generator and take steps to mitigate any potential problems.

Each piece of electrical equipment will have parameters for normal/safe operation, and guidelines as to how far from normal they can vary before power quality is deemed too low.

Whilst fluctuations in voltage etc. will always occur, these fluctuations must be kept within well-defined limits to ensure that equipment that draws power from a generator is safe and protected from damage.
