Abstract: In this work, the authors look at the effective use of Transient Voltage Suppression (TVS) diodes in solid-state DC-breaker applications and their constraints. For this purpose, the thermal ...

I have a universal PSU with a variety of tips and voltage that can be dialed in from 3V to 24V. The knob is not super easy to dial in though to get a precise value. However, once I set a value, the ...

MEASURING live voltages and current in today's high-energy environments can result in a severe hazard to equipment and users if proper precautions are not applied. Given the risk of transients, surges ...

Power quality primarily encompasses short-duration events on the electrical system that cause equipment to misoperate or shutdown. The time delineation between a power quality event and a steady-state ...

For modern distribution protection, Negative Phase Sequence (NPS) Protection is often relegated in favor of common elements such as Overcurrent (OC) or Earth Fault (EF), but NPS is an incredibly ...

Abstract: For an LCC-HVDC, the commutation failure (CF) of the inverter will cause the transient overvoltage (TOV) in sending-end system, while the existing control strategies based on the DC ...

A major power outage in April was caused by grid overvoltage, triggering a chain reaction. The Spanish grid lacked sufficient voltage control capacity, contributing to the blackout. Minister Aagesen ...

A power blackout in April left 60 million people in the Iberian Peninsula without power. Experts cited cascading overvoltage as the cause, affecting vital services in Spain and Portugal. The Iberian ...

An undervoltage or voltage sag is a disturbance that commonly occurs during electrical faults or when equipment is turning on. They are produced when large currents are being drawn on the system. On ...

Researchers from King Mongkut’s University of Technology North Bangkok in Thailand have proposed a new methodology to conduct techno-economic assessments of distributed PV systems considering ...
