  • Power Quality Evaluation for Electrical Installation of Hospital Building
    (IJACSA) International Journal of Advanced Computer Science and Applications, Vol. 10, No. 12, 2019 Power Quality Evaluation for Electrical Installation of Hospital Building Agus Jamal1, Sekarlita Gusfat Putri2, Anna Nur Nazilah Chamim3, Ramadoni Syahputra4 Department of Electrical Engineering, Faculty of Engineering Universitas Muhammadiyah Yogyakarta Yogyakarta, Indonesia Abstract—This paper presents improvements to the quality of Considering how vital electrical energy services are to power in hospital building installations using power capacitors. consumers, good quality electricity is needed [11]. There are Power quality in the distribution network is an important issue several methods to correct the voltage drop in a system, that must be considered in the electric power system. One namely by increasing the cross-section wire, changing the important variable that must be found in the quality of the power feeder section from one phase to a three-phase system, distribution system is the power factor. The power factor plays sending the load through a new feeder. The three methods an essential role in determining the efficiency of a distribution above show ineffectiveness both in terms of infrastructure and network. A good power factor will make the distribution system in terms of cost. Another technique that allows for more very efficient in using electricity. Hospital building installation is productive work is by using a Bank Capacitor [12]. one component in the distribution network that is very important to analyze. Nowadays, hospitals have a lot of computer-based The addition of capacitor banks can improve the power medical equipment. This medical equipment contains many factor, supply reactive power so that it can maximize the use electronic components that significantly affect the power factor of complex power, reduce voltage drops, avoid overloaded of the system.

  • Introduction to Power Quality
    CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION TO POWER QUALITY 1.1 INTRODUCTION This chapter reviews the power quality definition, standards, causes and effects of harmonic distortion in a power system. 1.2 DEFINITION OF ELECTRIC POWER QUALITY In recent years, there has been an increased emphasis and concern for the quality of power delivered to factories, commercial establishments, and residences. This is due to the increasing usage of harmonic-creating non linear loads such as adjustable-speed drives, switched mode power supplies, arc furnaces, electronic fluorescent lamp ballasts etc.[1]. Power quality loosely defined, as the study of powering and grounding electronic systems so as to maintain the integrity of the power supplied to the system. IEEE Standard 1159 defines power quality as [2]: The concept of powering and grounding sensitive equipment in a manner that is suitable for the operation of that equipment. In the IEEE 100 Authoritative Dictionary of IEEE Standard Terms, Power quality is defined as ([1], p. 855): The concept of powering and grounding electronic equipment in a manner that is suitable to the operation of that equipment and compatible with the premise wiring system and other connected equipment. Good power quality, however, is not easy to define because what is good power quality to a refrigerator motor may not be good enough for today‟s personal computers and other sensitive loads. 1.3 DESCRIPTIONS OF SOME POOR POWER QUALITY EVENTS The following are some examples and descriptions of poor power quality “events.” Fig. 1.1 Typical power disturbances [2]. ■ A voltage sag/dip is a brief decrease in the r.m.s line-voltage of 10 to 90 percent of the nominal line-voltage.

This replacement has led to adding a huge number of EVs with the capability of connecting to the grid. It is noted that the presence of such vehicles may introduce several challenges to the electrical grid due to their grid-to-vehicle and vehicle-to-grid capabilities. In between, the power quality issues would be the main items in electrical grids highly impacted by such vehicles.

Under this key contributing factor, the sustainable development goal aims to ensure universal access to an affordable, clean, and reliable energy service. To support the generation capacity in years to come, distributed generation is conceptualized through stages upon its implementation in the power system network. However, the rapid establishment growth of distributed generation technology in Malaysia will invoke power quality problems in the current power system network. In order to prevent this, the current government is committed to embark on the development of renewable technologies with the assurance of maintaining the quality of power delivered to consumers. Therefore, this research paper will focus on the review of the energy prospect of both fossil fuel and renewable energy generation in Malaysia and other countries, followed by power quality issues and compensation device under a high renewable penetration distribution network. The issues and challenges of distributed generation are presented, with a comprehensive discussion and insightful recommendation on future work of the distributed generation.

Ferreira and João L. Afonso Additional information is available at the end of the chapter http://dx.doi.org/10.5772/45791 1. Introduction Nowadays, energy efficiency is a top priority, boosted by a major concern with climatic changes and by the soaring oil prices in countries that have a large dependency on imported fossil fuels. A great part of the oil consumption is currently allocated to the transportation sector and a large portion of that is used by road vehicles. According to the international energy outlook report, the transportation sector is going to increase its share in world's total oil consumption by up to 55% by 2030 [1]. Aiming an improvement of energy efficiency, a revolution in the transportation sector is being done. The bet is in the electric mobility, mostly supported by the technological developments in different areas, as power electronics, mechanics, and information systems. Different types of Electric Vehicles (EVs) are being developed nowadays as alternative to the Internal Combustion Engines (ICE) vehicles [2][3], namely, Battery Electric Vehicles (BEV), Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles (PHEV), in its different configurations [3], and Fuel-Cell Electric Vehicles (FCEV).

  • Interaction Between Charging Infrastructure and the Electricity Grid
    Interaction between charging infrastructure and the electricity grid The situation and challenges regarding the influence of electromobility on mainly low voltage networks Shimi Sudha Letha Tatiano Busatto Math Bollen Interaction between charging infrastructure and the electricity grid The situation and challenges regarding the influence of electromobility on mainly low voltage networks Shimi Sudha Letha Tatiano Busatto Math Bollen Luleå University of Technology Department of Department of Engineering Sciences and Mathematics Division of Energy Science ISSN 1402-1536 ISBN 978-91-7790-807-4 (pdf) Luleå 2021 www.ltu.se SUMMARY This report summarizes the situation with knowledge and challenges regarding the large- scale introduction of electromobility in the Swedish power grid. The content convers a range of systemic perspectives in terms of challenges and impacts that the fast-growing amount of charging associated with electromobility poses to the actual power system. From this, several important questions are addressed in order to predict the future positive and negative impacts of this. A description of electromobility in technological terms is given by presenting various configurations of electric vehicles, charging infrastructure and energy supply. The focus is placed on the possible impacts on the low-voltage networks, mainly exploring the power quality issues and grid hosting capacity. The following power quality issues are addressed: rms voltage (slow voltage variation, overvoltage, undervoltage, fast voltage variations), unbalance, waveform distortion (harmonics, interharmonics, and supraharmonics), and power system stability. The hosting capacity is examined to predict whether the charging demand from electromobility can be accommodated in the existing power system considering the involved challenges. Furthermore, the aspect related to the charging process and people’s travelling patterns under a stochastic point of view is analyzed.
