Power Quality & Harmonics

Power Quality & Harmonic Studies

Measurement, analysis and reporting for electrical networks where power quality, harmonic distortion or network behaviour requires investigation.

01 /

Understand network behaviour

A clear assessment of measured performance helps define where further investigation or mitigation is needed.

  • Power quality monitoring
  • Harmonic measurement
  • Harmonic spectrum analysis
  • Voltage behaviour
  • Current behaviour
  • Load profiling
  • Transient/event investigation
  • Technical interpretation
  • Engineering reports
  • Recommendations for further investigation or mitigation

Harmonic studies & G5/5 assessment requirements

ENA Engineering Recommendation G5 Issue 5, commonly called G5/5, addresses harmonic voltage distortion and connection assessment for harmonic sources and resonant plant on UK transmission and distribution networks.

If your connection offer requests a G5/5 assessment, share the network operator’s requirements when discussing the scope. Monitoring, modelling inputs, assessment responsibilities and any specialist support must be agreed for the project.

Typical applications

  • Industrial sites
  • Renewable generation
  • BESS
  • EV charging
  • Data centres
  • Private HV networks
  • Network operators

Useful questions

Is power quality monitoring the same as a G5/5 assessment?

No. Monitoring records network behaviour over a defined period. A connection-related harmonic assessment may also need network data, equipment information and modelling against the network operator’s requirements. The required assessment scope should be confirmed before commissioning work.
