How Power Quality Monitoring Can Save Your Business Thousands

Power quality is often overlooked — until it starts costing you money. Voltage sags, harmonic distortion, and poor load balancing can silently damage equipment, reduce energy efficiency, and cause unexplained downtime. But the good news? Monitoring these issues isn’t just for large industrial sites anymore.

What Is Power Quality Monitoring?

Power quality monitoring involves using specialised equipment to track and record electrical performance across your site. From voltage spikes to harmonic distortion, it helps you identify invisible issues before they lead to costly damage or inefficiency.

Key Business Benefits

• Prevent Equipment Failures – Detect electrical disturbances before they wear out sensitive equipment.

• Reduce Downtime – Avoid production losses caused by erratic power issues.

• Improve Energy Efficiency – Understand load profiles and optimise energy use.

• Meet Regulatory Compliance – Easily generate reports for audits and grid connection standards.

Real-World Example

One of our clients in the manufacturing sector was experiencing frequent drive failures. Through a week-long power quality study using our CESINEL voltage loggers and METSyS current dataloggers, we identified recurring transients caused by an upstream fault. The fix? A minor upgrade to switchgear that saved them over £20,000 annually in equipment replacements and lost productivity.
