Abstract
Electricity as a commodity should satisfy strict quality
requirements. In the last two decades, the customer’s urge for
good quality of power supply has increased due to the use of
more sensitive electronic devices which on the other hand might
influence the electricity network too. At present, no definite
responsibility with respect to power quality (PQ) aspects at the
point of connection (POC) is defined in the European standard
EN50160 or other standard. Also, the limiting values for various
power quality parameters differ in different standards available
in different countries of the world. For implementing power
quality regulation in the future electricity infrastructure, it is
required to evaluate the actual performance level of the
electricity network. In this paper, various PQ related problems in
different countries of the world are highlighted. A brief overview
is presented on the present PQ status of the Dutch network and
other PQ related activities.
