What is a Power Quality Problem?
“Any occurrence manifested in voltage,
current, or frequency deviations that
results in failure or mis-operation
of end-use equipment.”
![Page 6: Power Quality Fundamentals and Monitoring](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081507/56815b74550346895dc96db7/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
What Does That Mean?
It’s dependant on your susceptibility.
Given the quality of supply do I have
to worry about problems with my
equipment or systems?
![Page 7: Power Quality Fundamentals and Monitoring](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081507/56815b74550346895dc96db7/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
What You Should Be Asking…
What is my susceptibility to power problems?
What is my economic exposure to such problems?

The Big Picture
It’s the complete electrical environment,
not just the quality of supply
![Page 12: Power Quality Fundamentals and Monitoring](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081507/56815b74550346895dc96db7/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
What You Should Be Asking…
Be Proactive!
Does my power system have the
capacity for my present needs?
How about future growth?

An Analogy…

the bank to cash them”

$50 billion per year in the USA is lost as a result of power
quality breakdown.SOURCE: EPRI, 2000
Half of all computer problems and one-third of all data loss can be traced back to the power line.SOURCE: Contingency Planning Research, LAN Times
Sandia National Laboratories estimates power quality and reliability problems cost US businesses approx. $150 billion annually in lost data, materials and productivity—60% are sags
In 1999, the amount lost as a result of power quality in the US was five times the amount spent on power quality worldwide

…The data center houses 45,000 square-feet of computer floor
space. In one database, the company has consolidated $1.6 trillion of life insurance information.Energy Decisions, June 2001
During power supply shortages, utilities are generally permitted to have line voltage reductions, so-called “brown outs,” to cope with seasonal power demands…But if equipment is already operating on the low end of nominal voltage then the brown-out may cause excessive heat dissipation in motors and electronic equipment. Building Operation and Management, May 2000

Limits depend on ratio of Short Circuit Current (SCC) at PCC to average Load Current of maximum demand over 1 year
For example, Isc/IL < 20, odd harm <11 = 4.0% Isc/IL 20<50, odd harm < 11 = 7.0% Isc/IL >1000, odd harm > 35 = 1.4%

Paradigm Shift?
You may no longer be able to rely You may no longer be able to rely on the utility to be your primary on the utility to be your primary source of power!source of power!
Be Prepared
![Page 97: Power Quality Fundamentals and Monitoring](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081507/56815b74550346895dc96db7/html5/thumbnails/97.jpg)
Why Monitor Your Electrical Supply?
• Quality of supply is of paramount importance
• Huge investment in protection & mitigation is not a guarantee!
• You have a high economic exposure
• Your facility is core to your business or maybe is your business
• You already monitor other critical items
• Your electrical environment is just as important
• You need to balance your needs with available supply
• Loading, cost allocation, etc
![Page 98: Power Quality Fundamentals and Monitoring](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081507/56815b74550346895dc96db7/html5/thumbnails/98.jpg)
You May Already Monitor Your Facility
• Traditional Data Center
• Building Management Systems (BMS), Human Machine Interface Software (HMI)
• Wonderware, Sitescan, ALC, Datatrax, etc
• Via Bacnet, Lonworks, Incomm, modbus, etc
• Internet Data Center
• Network Operations Center (NOC)
• HP Open View, etc
• Via SNMP

What You May Already Monitor
• Traditional Data Center• UPS - On Bypass, other alarms
• Traditionally do not measure quality• Sub Metering • HVAC, Fire, Security
• Internet Data Center• Network/System Health• HVAC, Fire, Security
• Electrical Supply is often overlooked• Quality of supply, Energy/cost allocation
• Power monitoring can interface with existing systems for single point alarming, logging, etc…

Reactive Approach
• Problem Solving, hopefully you’ll find it!
• Portable instrumentation typically used
![Page 102: Power Quality Fundamentals and Monitoring](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081507/56815b74550346895dc96db7/html5/thumbnails/102.jpg)
Proactive Approach
• Permanently installed monitoring systems
• Anticipate the future – on-line when trouble occurs
• Monitor system dynamics
• Preventive Maintenance, Trending, identify
equipment deteriorationBe Proactive!

Power Quality vs. Power Flow
• Power Quality Monitoring - Quality of SupplyQuality of Supply• Monitor for harmful disturbances, harmonics, etc• Microsecond, Sub-Cycle Measurements• In close accordance with IEEE 1159 & IEC
• Power Flow Monitoring - How much, cost, when & where?How much, cost, when & where?• Energy & Demand, Measured over seconds• Be Careful! False sense of security
• Blind to common PQ problems
Use a PQ instrument for PQ monitoring!
![Page 104: Power Quality Fundamentals and Monitoring](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081507/56815b74550346895dc96db7/html5/thumbnails/104.jpg)
Comprehensive Power Monitoring
• Combined Power Quality and Flow
• Monitor PQ at critical locations• Utility service, UPS, PDU’s, loads• Energy provided along with PQ
• Monitor Energy at less critical locations & individual loads
• Loading• Sub Metering• Cost Allocation, etc…

![Page 121: Power Quality Fundamentals and Monitoring](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081507/56815b74550346895dc96db7/html5/thumbnails/121.jpg)
Utility Monitoring Summary
• Uncovered problems with the utility supply• 50+ disturbances recorded over a 2 month period. • Sags, transients, waveshape distortion
• Results reported to the utility, they did not know
• Utility investigation• Faulty relay caused the majority of the disturbances. Corrected
![Page 122: Power Quality Fundamentals and Monitoring](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081507/56815b74550346895dc96db7/html5/thumbnails/122.jpg)
UPS Output Monitoring Summary
• No disturbances on the conditioned UPS output
• Output regulated to within manufacturers specifications
• UPS mitigated many disturbances on the utility feed
• Did what they paid for
• Justified the investment
![Page 123: Power Quality Fundamentals and Monitoring](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081507/56815b74550346895dc96db7/html5/thumbnails/123.jpg)
Conclusion
• Being proactive uncovered problems with the utility supply that required correction
• Continuous monitoring proved power conditioning equipment worked as design and to manufacturer’s specifications. Protected loads were unaffected
• Provided justification to management for power monitoring systems at other key facilities
• Load profiling helping to determine power requirements of a planned expansion

Conclusion
• Utility sags damaged elevator controls. • Corresponding UPS Swell coincident with Utility return to normal.• Cause of Swell being investigated…• Possible effects of Swells:
• Damaged power supplies and other devices.• Without monitoring would have never seen this. The next time it could be worse.

FAA’s Objectives
• Monitor critical points throughout each ARTCC
• Determine present status of each ARTCC Facility • Is the electrical supply operating within design parameters?
• Catch problems before they occur• Change approach from Reactive to Proactive
• Correlate power quality to status indicators, panel
meters, transfer switch positions, etc

FAA’s Objectives
• Benchmark long term performance in order to improve reliability
• Compare measured parameters to simulations
• Have web browser access from anywhere within the FAA system
• Local ARTCC personnel• OKC Airway Operational Support (AOS) personnel

Monitoring System
• Monitor 15 points for quality of supply & energy• Utility Service• Generators• UPS’s• Key distribution points• Critical Power Centers
• In parallel monitor other data such as• Transfer switch & breaker positions• Panel meters• Misc indicators
• Web based access to each site via intranet

Initial Results
• Key points operating out of design specs• Ex: Adjust transformer taps
• Routine maintenance not always performed as per procedures
• Wiring inconsistent with drawings
