In today's fast-paced industrial and commercial environments, maintaining high power quality is essential for maximizing equipment lifespan and minimizing downtime. Power quality issues, such as harmonics, voltage sags, and reactive power, are becoming more prevalent due to the rise of modern electronics and non-linear loads. This blog explores key power quality problems, the technological solutions available, and the industry standards that guide the development and implementation of these solutions.

Active harmonic filters(AHF) primarily reduce harmonics. These occur due to the characteristic energy consumption of non-linear consumers. In our everyday lives, products with power electronics are indispensable. These include LED light sources, IT and telecommunications equipment, frequency inverters, pumps, compressors, uninterruptible power supplies, electric vehicle charging stations, solar inverters and many more.

Introduction to Power Quality

Power quality refers to the compatibility between electrical supply systems and connected equipment. Any deviations in frequency, voltage amplitude, phase balance in a three-phase system, or signal distortion can impact the supply system. The specific power quality requirements of electrical equipment vary across different facilities.

While most electro-mechanical equipment is resilient to minor power fluctuations, electronic devices are highly sensitive to power quality issues. As businesses increasingly rely on electronic systems, maintaining good power quality has become a significant concern in commercial, industrial, and institutional settings, such as hospitals, universities, and offices.

Harmonics have far-reaching effects on power systems, lowering system efficiency and increasing maintenance costs. Filtering harmonics and improving the power factor are key to enhancing the stability and efficiency of power systems. By using Active Power Filters and optimizing system design, power users can significantly reduce the impact of harmonics, improve power quality, and extend the lifespan of their equipment.

The Challenge of Harmonics

Harmonics are unwanted distortions in the electrical sine wave, caused by non-linear components in electrical systems. With the rise in power electronics use, including variable frequency drives, uninterruptible power supplies, and inverters, voltage distortion, or harmonics, has become a significant issue. These harmonics can lead to various problems, from immediate equipment failures to long-term damage, causing increased temperature, energy losses, and reduced service life of electrical systems. To prevent such issues, harmonic filters are essential to reduce or eliminate these distortions before they cause harm.

Static Var Generator is power factor correction device used in electrical power systems to control the flow of reactive power. Reactive power is necessary for the operation of inductive and capacitive loads but is not consumed by them. It creates voltage drops and increases line losses in power transmission systems. SVGs help regulate the reactive power flow, maintaining power system stability and improving power quality.

Today, the engineering team at Intonepower carried out an ambient temperature derating test at the laboratory. The test involved running a 150A module continuously for 12 hours at 60°C to evaluate how ambient temperature affects its performance. This research is key to understanding the module's limits and ensuring optimal operation under various temperature conditions.

Static Var Generator (SVG) and Advanced Static Var Generator(ASVG) are both used to provide dynamic reactive power compensation in electrical systems. However, there are key differences in their design, capabilities, and performance that distinguish the advanced version from the standard SVG.
