A new, MIL-qualified power converter has been designed to provide electrical isolation between input power and an electrically noisy load. The DTI PCS-5000 maintains a unity power factor when driving ...
The power quality of electrical distribution systems has a drastic effect on power regulation and consumption. Power quality includes all aspects of events in the power system that deviate from normal ...
At one time, almost all electrical loads were linear — those that weren't made up such a small portion of the total that they had little effect on electrical system operation. That all changed, ...
Harmonic is one of the most important concepts on the power system that cannot be neglected since it can affect the power quality and operation of equipment. High levels of Harmonics in the system may ...
Providing modern electronic devices with a diet of healthy power is not straightforward. Small AC-connected equipment often uses a capacitor-input filter following a half- or full-wave rectifier.
Low power factor reduces an electrical system’s distribution capacity by increasing current flow. Therefore, having a low power factor is inefficient and expensive. But what is power factor and what ...
