Abstract :
The Power Quality Database is a software product designed to help engineers evaluate power quality problems on electric utility systems and within end-use facilities. It provides examples of power quality case studies in a variety of different categories along with a wide variety of additional reference information to facilitate the investigation and reporting process. The database includes the results of over fifty case studies. Also included are the results of the Distribution Power Quality (DPQ) monitoring project which characterizes power quality on distribution systems throughout the USA, and the results of power quality characterization testing at the Power Quality Test Facility (PQTF)
