Power Quality

Power Quality is often called into question but, be it simple Power Factor correction capacitors or a complex harmonic filtering system, there is a solution to fit any budget or schedule.

PowerCore's in-house expertise along with its partners can resolve commonly experienced issues such as:

• Excessive Harmonic Distortion
• Voltage Flicker
• Voltage Fluctuation
• Neutral Cable Overheating
• Ground Loops/Grounding Problems

In addition, complex PQ Audits can be provided that will assess the entire facility power distribution system from the top down.

Typically, power quality is evaluated through a Power Monitoring System (if the facility has one) or a series of Power Quality Measurements are performed.

PowerCore Solutions can provide such customized PQ Solutions as:

• Fixed PF Correction Capacitor Banks
• Switched-in Capacitor Banks
• Harmonic Filters
• Voltage Regulators
• K-rated Transformers
• TVSS

When considering Battery Energy Storage System, the existing challenges can be resolved by dynamic support capability of many type of BESS inverters:

• Voltage variations support (brownouts)
• Fault ride through
• Controlled injection of reactive power during a fault
• Control of cos(phi) with an active power priority
• Grid following / grid forming mode (islanding)
• System startup form a cold condition, within 30s
• Black-start capability (with restrictions) to start a gas turbine
