• Substation-grade reliability – years of unattended operation

• Compliance documentation – verify power quality per EN 50160, IEEE 519

📊 Comprehensive Analysis Capability:

• Harmonic spectrum analysis – identify resonant conditions, filter performance

• Transient capture – record lightning strikes, capacitor switching, load switching

• Flicker measurement – assess impact of fluctuating loads

• Unbalance analysis – detect system asymmetries

🏭 Industrial & Utility Applications:

• Verify incoming power quality at facility service entrance

• Monitor sensitive loads – data centers, semiconductor fabs, hospitals

• Troubleshoot power disturbances – correlate events with production issues

• Substation automation – integrate with SCADA systems
