Improving Power Quality with Electrical Energy Systems

Authors(1) :-Ms. M. Santhi

As the proliferation of sensitive electronic devices continues, the importance of maintaining high power quality in energy systems has become increasingly critical. Electrical disturbances within the energy system can lead to both technical and financial damages and can degrade the quality of power supplied. The Unified Power Quality Conditioner (UPQC) has emerged as a highly effective solution to mitigate these dilemmas. Key factors affecting power quality include voltage sags, swells, harmonics, non-linear loads, unbalanced loads, and voltage stability dilemmas.
