Topic: "Case Study: Light Flicker-Application of IEEE 1453"
This presentation will share a utility’s experience in serving a flicker emitting load. Service recently started at an electric arc furnace. The operation of the furnace contributed significant flicker levels to the system. SRP received numerous complaints from residential customers concerning flickering lights.
