With electricity in growing demand, low PQ is on the rise and becoming notoriously difficult to remedy. It is an issue that confronts professionals on a daily basis, but few have the required knowledge to diagnose and solve these problems.  \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eHandbook of Power Quality\u003c\/i\u003e examines of the full panorama of PQ disturbances, with background theory and guidelines on measurement procedures and problem solving. It uses the perspectives of both power suppliers and electricity users, with contributions from experts in all aspects of PQ supplying a vital balance of scientific and practical information on the following:\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul type=\"disc\"\u003e \u003cli\u003efrequency variations;\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003ethe characteristics of voltage, including dips, fluctuations and flicker;\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003ethe continuity and reliability of electricity supply, its structure, appliances and equipment;\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003ethe relationship of PQ with power systems, distributed generation, and the electricity market;\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003ethe monitoring and cost of poor PQ;\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003erational use of energy.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003eAn accompanying website hosts case studies for each chapter, demonstrating PQ practice; how problems are identified, analysed and resolved.  The website also includes extensive appendices listing the current standards, mathematical formulas, and principles of electrical circuits that are critical for the optimization of solutions. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis comprehensive handbook explains PQ methodology with a hands-on approach that makes it essential for all practising power systems engineers and researchers.
