Efficient power consumption has become a key consideration for many businesses, especially large energy users.
Efficient power consumption has become a key consideration for many businesses, especially large energy users.
THE ISSUE
Poor power factor can lead to increased energy costs, overheating of plant and equipment including increased sizing of power cables and increases in overall maximum demand. High harmonic content can cause overheating of cables and problems generally with power supply quality.
Maximum demand consumers may have an Authorised Supply Capacity (ASC) disproportionate to the actual kVA requirement resulting in excessive energy bills.
Using the latest technologies in electrical power monitoring equipment, Utility Engineering Solutions can conduct electrical load monitoring in a wide range of operating environments including office complexes, schools, colleges, large retail outlets, supermarkets, hospitals and industrial parks.
We analyse power consumption and provide detailed reports on true power usage, maximum demand, reactive power, harmonic content, operating power factor and operating voltages. Our reports focus on systems and equipment that contribute to poor energy efficiency, power factor and poor power quality and then we identify a solution whether that be power factor correction, harmonic filtration systems or recommendations for replacement of inefficient equipment.
A power monitoring survey also acts as a useful tool to reduce ASC and to identify voltage violations caused by process loads and upstream problems on electricity Distribution Network Operator (DNO) networks.
We can also conduct a post installation survey to show the benefits that a power quality survey can bring coupled with support for clients to amend the tariff structure.
