Power Quality Audit

What You Get with a Power Quality Audit

Preliminary review
Your facility personnel will characterize the problem, describe existing conditions (equipment or wiring changes, modifications, etc.) that could be causing power quality problems, and help determine a plan for the site survey. This preliminary review helps determine the need for the site survey. Sometimes problems can be diagnosed at this stage, reducing the need for the survey.

Site survey & field measurements
When deemed necessary, an onsite survey is performed to gather specific information about the facility, power quality problems, and affected equipment. Using state of the art Power Analyzers, field measurements are made in conjunction with an onsite power system and equipment inspection. Measurements may include load current values, voltage and harmonic distortion levels, as well as transient voltage events.

Technical report
Following the site visit and field measurements, a technical report is issued. This report includes a summary of all of the information gathered, highlighted power system problems, a summary of field measurements, recommendations for eliminating the original problem. This report also includes base line measurements that can be used for future system design and facility planning.
