The growth of any country depends upon the availability, accessibility and growth of electricity. The need of energy rises due to the modern lifestyle and advanced technologies in residential sector and hence in industrial sector. The un-even demand in energy during different time intervals of a day leads to unbalanced load curve at power plant. To...
This article presents two practical methods used for lowering residential consumers' electricity bills. The first method is the implementation of net metering, which is used in many areas, such as Australia, the United States, the United Kingdom, the European Union, India, South America, Brazil, Colombia, and Argentina [1]-[3]. One example of the i...
Power swing is a transient event in the power system that is incepted by various phenomenons such as suddenloss or sudden addition of load, tripping of line due to faults etc. The conventional Distance relays are set tooperate for faults may mal-operate during Power swings which lead to transient instability of the system alongwith low post fault p...
Modern industries are installed with an adjustable speed drive (ASD), which is more sensitive to power qualityissues. The most common reason for the tripping of ASD is the voltage sag.
