Topics

The conference covers all network disturbance phenomena including lower-frequency distortion (harmonics, interharmonics, subharmonics), higher-frequency distortion (supraharmonics), flicker, unbalance, slow voltage variations, rapid voltage changes, volt-age sags, voltage swells, notching and transients. Classical as well as modern technologies, like e-mobility, inverter-based generation, battery storage systems, FACTS, HVDC converters and heat pumps are addressed.
