Statistical Analyses of ${\rm P}_{\rm st}$ and $\Delta {\rm V}_{10}$ Recorded at Electric A

Adoption of the IEC flicker standard by IEEE would encourage countries currently using ΔV₁₀ flicker standard to consider either updating the ΔV₁₀ calculation to make it more suitable for modern day applications, or switching to the IEC standard. In the process of revising the flicker standard, the design of flicker planning level is important. For this purpose, this letter presents comparative statistical analyses of flicker measurements based on present P_st and ΔV₁₀ standards. Besides the comparison of synchronous flicker severity indices in 10-min intervals, analyses are also conducted using daily flicker statistical reference values measured at the point of common coupling (PCC) of ac and dc electric arc furnace facilities.
