چکیده

A new instrument for the evaluation of disturbances caused by variations in lamp voltage (light flicker) is proposed, based on light intensity measurements. Unlike current standard (IEC EN 61000-4-15), which determines flicker severity by filtering powering voltage measurements with a standard lamp model (230V/60W), the presented methodology includes the lamp itself in the measurement process, thus realizing an objective measurement of flicker. A testing station for the metrological characterization of the device has been implemented and measurements have been compared to a standard IEC flickermeter (Norma D6000). Thanks to its portability, the instrument can be used to measure light flicker over a wide range of environments spanning from home/office to rial locations.

Improving the Method of Location Identification and Determining the Effect of Each Flicker Source in Distribution Networks

Voltage flicker phenomenon is one of the main power quality problems in today's power networks. Before any compensation operation for this phenomenon, the location of each flicker sources must be identified and the effect of each of them on the network flicker value must be determined. Also, methods that require least number of monitoring points are more in demand due to the limitations of meas...

A Comparison between SVC and STATCOM in Flicker Mitigation of Electric Arc Furnace using Practical Recorded Data

Electric arc furnace (EAF) is one of the largest loads in electric power systems. It is highly time varying and nonlinear. Its reactive power variations cause voltage fluctuations in nearby system which is known as flicker. On the other hand the nonlinear voltage-current characteristic causes strong voltage and current harmonics in EAF. To this end Flexible AC Transmission Systems (FACTS) techn...
