Power quality measurement and analysis services

About the service

Electricity is essential to industrial operations. ITVC’s experience surveying factories shows that poor power quality can prevent production equipment from meeting its technical requirements, increase energy losses and affect product quality. Power-electronic devices used to control plant equipment can also generate harmonics that affect nearby equipment and cause additional losses.

ITVC Global provides power quality measurement and analysis to assess incoming supplies and the stability of the plant’s electrical network.

Key measurements and analyses

• Continuous measurement of current, voltage, power and cos φ over an agreed period, with automatic data logging and analysis.
• Measurement of harmonic components in individual branches and across the plant network, identification of harmonic sources and recommendations for corrective measures.
• Detection and assessment of phase imbalance, with recommendations for corrective measures.
• Measurement and assessment of energy losses in the plant network at the time of the survey.
• Analysis of power consumption in individual branches and across the plant.

Personnel and equipment

• Personnel: Energy auditors and electrical engineers specialising in industrial power systems.
• Equipment: Fluke 435 / Fluke 435 Series II Power Quality and Energy Analyzer.
