Title
Guide for Service to Equipment Sensitive to Momentary Voltage Disturbances
The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, Inc.
Publication Date:
Mar 16, 1995
Scope:
Foreword
(This introduction is not a part of IEEE Std 1250-1995, IEEE Guide for Service to Equipment Sensitive to Momentary Voltage Disturbances.)
This guide was developed out of an increasing awareness of the incompatibility of modern electronics equipment with a normal power system environment. Simply put, much new user equipment is not designed to withstand the surges, faults, and reclosing duty present on typical electric utility distribution systems or within the user’s facility.
This guide describes the operating environment of sensitive utilization equipment, identifies potential problem areas, and suggests effective ways to satisfy its special voltage requirements. Cooperation among users, utilities, and equipment designers is needed to ensure both adequate electric service to all users and proper equipment operations. Solutions are presented from the perspectives of both the customer and the utility provider, since the problems users of sensitive equipment experience often originate from either area..
The Working Group on Distribution Voltage Quality, which undertook the development of this guide, had the following membership:
