Power Quality Testing

Poor power quality is one of the most overlooked causes of equipment damage, unexpected downtime, and inflated energy costs. Ballance Electrical uses IEC61000-4-30 compliant instrumentation to measure and document every parameter across your electrical distribution system.

Testing Capabilities

• Voltage, current, power, harmonics, and flicker on all phases including neutral and ground
• Cross-channel and current triggering to capture every event, on every channel
• 5 MHz, 8,000 Vpk waveform capture for even the shortest transient events
• EN50160 automated reporting for compliance documentation

Common Power Quality Problems

• High voltage distortion
• Sags & swells
• Outages
• Transients
• Grounding & bonding issues
• Fault clearing
• Switching events

In many cases, power quality issues are present long before equipment fails — testing identifies them while corrective action is still low-cost.
