Power Quality Solutions

Engineered mitigation systems designed from measured site data — improving power factor, eliminating harmonics, and ensuring compliance with IEEE 519 and EN50160.

What we deliver

From measurement to mitigation — engineered for your site

pqExcel delivers Power Quality Solutions that are engineered from actual measured data — not catalogue selections. Every solution begins with a power quality audit or measurement study, followed by engineering analysis, and then solution design specific to your load profile and system conditions.

Our solutions address harmonic distortion, poor power factor, voltage instability, and transient events — delivering measurable improvements in electrical system reliability, energy efficiency, and compliance with international standards.

01

Measure

Power quality audit and site measurement using power quality analysers — capturing actual load conditions and disturbance levels

02

Analyse

Engineering analysis of measured data — harmonic studies, power factor assessment, and load profile evaluation

03

Design

Solution design based on analysis — selecting and sizing the right mitigation system for your specific requirements

04

Validate

Post-installation measurement to verify performance against design targets and compliance standards

Our process

From power quality measurement to corrected output

Every power quality solution we deliver follows a structured, measurement-driven process — ensuring the solution is validated by data before and after implementation.

Three-step flow: Power Quality Measurement → Data Analysis (waveform + harmonic spectrum) → Power Quality Mitigation → Corrected Output
Solution portfolio

Power quality mitigation solutions

Five engineered solutions — each addressing specific power quality challenges. Solution selection is based on your measured site data and load profile.

Reactive Power & Harmonic Mitigation

⚖
Reactive power

APFC / RTPFC Panel

Reactive power compensation using capacitors and detuned reactors. Contactor-based (APFC) for stable loads; thyristor-based (RTPFC) for dynamic loads requiring transient-free switching.

✓Eliminates utility PF penalties
✓Detuned reactors prevent resonance
✓Switching method based on load profile
⚡
Reactive + harmonics

Static VAR Generator (SVG)

Primary function is reactive power compensation with millisecond response. Harmonic mitigation is also achievable — suitable for arc furnaces, welding, and rapidly varying loads.

✓Millisecond response to load changes
✓Harmonic mitigation also achievable
✓Ideal for variable and fluctuating loads
⏫
Harmonics + reactive

Active Harmonic Filter (AHF)

Primary function is harmonic mitigation — reducing THD in real time to meet IEEE 519 and EN50160 limits. Reactive power compensation is also achievable in a single solution.

✓Dynamic real-time harmonic cancellation
✓Reactive power compensation also achievable
✓Complies with IEEE 519 & EN50160
🔗
Passive + active

Hybrid System

Passive component handles base load correction; active component manages dynamic and fluctuating loads in real time. Cost-optimised for complex mixed-load environments.

✓Passive for base load, active for dynamic
✓Cost-optimised for mixed-load environments
✓Complies with IEEE 519 & EN50160

Electrical Protection

🛡

Transient Voltage Surge Suppressor (TVSS)

Surge protection

Protects sensitive and critical equipment from voltage spikes, transients, and lightning surges — preventing damage, unplanned downtime, and production losses across industrial and commercial facilities.

✓Protects VFDs, PLCs, and sensitive electronics from transients
✓Reduces motor stress, overheating, and equipment wear
✓Extends equipment life and reduces maintenance costs
✓Minimises downtime and production losses from surge events
How we work

Solution design begins with measurement — not assumption

Every power quality solution pqExcel delivers is engineered from actual site data. We do not recommend solutions from a catalogue — we design them from your measured load conditions, harmonic profile, and system requirements.

Post-installation, we validate performance through measurement — confirming that THD, power factor, and compliance parameters meet design targets before handover.
