POWER QUALITY STUDIES
Power Quality Study According to IEC 50160: Advanced Diagnostics for Efficient Operations
At Electrodata, we carry out specialized power quality studies based on the international IEC 50160 standard, which defines the technical parameters that an electrical supply must meet to ensure the reliable and efficient operation of all equipment within a facility.
During the study, we use high-tech power analyzers specifically designed to detect and record electrical phenomena such as voltage fluctuations, harmonics, transients, voltage sags or swells, imbalances, and other events that may compromise the stability of the electrical system. This allows us to identify the root causes of disturbances and implement corrective actions with precision.
Key Benefits of a Power Quality Study:
Energy savings:
Detecting inefficiencies such as low power factor enables targeted improvements that reduce energy consumption while maintaining operational performance.
Avoid penalties:
Keeping your electrical systems compliant with utility standards helps prevent potential fines from the power distribution company.
Reduced unplanned downtime:
Identifying and correcting issues like unbalances, interruptions, voltage variations, or harmonic distortions helps prevent equipment failures and production stops.
Extended equipment lifespan:
Operating under stable electrical conditions reduces stress on components, helping prolong the service life of your critical assets and minimizing maintenance costs.
