Power Quality Analyzer
Class A Power Quality Analyzers are usually installed at PCC (Point of common coupling). It monitors and records short-term or long-term distortions in voltage.

What is power quality?
The properties that electrical energy must have in order for electrical loads to work smoothly and efficiently are examined under the title of “power quality”. These features are defined as follows;
- Uninterrupted electrical energy
- Constanting voltage and frequency
- Adjusting of power factor
- Balance of phases’ loads
- Limitation of harmonic values

Why is Power Quality Important?
Electrical faults frequently occur in facilities with poor power quality. These faults negatively affect production continuity and production efficiency by causing losses such as raw materials, energy, and labor.
