Waveform Capture with Transient Capture Overlays
PMI Revolution recorders can record waveform captures and, with the transient capture option, high-speed microsecond-level transient captures. Transient captures have a much higher sampling rate than waveform captures but have…
Understanding Harmonic Power
Harmonic power is a complex and often misunderstood topic. This leads to misinterpretations, including using a harmonic power analysis when the measurements aren't physically meaningful. An overview of harmonic power…
Getting Started with Harmonics
Harmonic distortion has become an increasingly important subject for large power consumers. Non-linear loads continue to be adopted into customer systems, which often are the root cause of power quality…
Merging Recordings in ProVision
Many PQ investigations end with a follow-up recording to verify a problem has been corrected and to gather a baseline for any further issues. Analyzing the “before” and “after” recordings…
Quickly Creating PQ Reports
The ProVision Publication Wizard is a quick way to create finished documents from individual graphs and reports. Use the wizard to create publication templates for different PQ applications, and then…
Measuring Power
The Revolution is a powerful tool for measuring and recording power quality information. With ProVision, there are a wide variety of ways to display and analyze many different types of…
Analyzing Voltage Sags with Event Change
Identifying the sources for voltage sags can be a somewhat complicated task. Graphs such as waveform capture can obscure the essentials with an RMS-based voltage sag. PMI provides a triggered…
New ProVision Release for Handling Large PQ Recordings
With the introduction of the cell Guardian, 1 GB of memory in a PQ recorder is increasingly common. Although the resulting large files can provide a wealth of data, they…
CBEMA-ITIC Analysis with Stripcharts
The ITIC curve (formerly CBEMA) is a performance-oriented standard for electronic equipment manufacturers. The standard gives a method for classifying and plotting voltage events on a specially constructed graph that…
CBEMA Graphs Revealed
The CBEMA (Computer Business Equipment Manufacturers Association) curve and the ITIC (Information Technology Industry Council) curve both refer to a similar method to visibly represent voltage events. A graph of…
Advanced Harmonic Analysis Through Bulk ProVision Exports
The IEEE 519-2014 harmonic standard calls for several advanced data analysis procedures. Some of these, especially when combining with data from other devices, may be performed in Excel or Matlab.…
