Power Quality Enhancement

The increased dependence upon electronic equipment has greatly increased the need for power quality enhancement in many commercial and industrial facilities. It is a dual-edged sword. Electronic equipment can seriously disturb the pure sinusoidal voltage and current that was once assumed to flow in wiring systems. At the same time, this equipment is even more sensitive to such disturbances than are traditional loads such as motors and lights.


Aloha's team of experts can tackle power quality problems, provide recommendations for their solution, and even implement the needed remedies. Loss of data, equipment failure, and plant shut-downs can result from power quality problems. Often these problems are simple in cause, but yet their location requires intensive detective work by highly skilled engineers.


Although most power quality problems have sources internal to the customer's facility, electric utilities are the logical place for customers to seek assistance. As deregulation and restructuring advance, energy service providers will have to provide services along with basic energy. Power quality enhancement can be such a service. Aloha Systems can provide that assistance, either through the utility or directly to the power user.
