About
Power Quality?
It is becoming more difficult to control and analyze new
technologies (i.e. VFDs, UPSs, computers, automated controls, etc.).
Many of the electrical environments of today and yesterday are not
capable of handling the demands of the nonlinear loads form new
technologies.
Lately, the growing concern for energy conservation and the cost
savings of using the new technology has increased the need for our
expertise in power quality.
For years, we at Energy Management Corporation have been providing
these, and other services to residential, commercial, and industrial
customers throughout the intermountain west.
The Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) reports that the average,
well-managed electrical supply system in North America experiences
about 8.8 hours of power outages annually. This can damage your
electrical equipment significantly and cost you in significant fines
through your power provider.
Any occurrence manifested in voltage, current, or frequency deviations
that results in failure or miss-operation of end-us equipment. Is
concerned to be a power quality issue!
Power Factor Correction
In the West, the utility company will charge their customers a penalty
for a power factor adjustment or demand charge. In most cases, this
penalty charge is based on an established power factor reading taken at
the common point of a coupling, or metering point in the utility.
Adding power factor correction capacitors will eliminate this penalty.
Our Power Factor Correction Audit will determine what Kilovolt-Amperes,
KVAR, capacitors are needed to eliminate the penalty.
Transients &
Transient Voltage Surge Suppression
Small surges and lulls are pulsing through your power system at all
times. These are sometimes caused by external forces such as lightning,
but most electrical transients are caused internally by something as
simple as a computer being turned on or a product being scanned. These
transients are taking time from the equipment's life and will cost your
company to replace the damaged equipment.
