Flicker

Flicker is a measure of the severity of voltage fluctuations caused by equipment (such as a turbine) connected to the network. It may be calculated either from a voltage time history or from active and reactive power. Click the Select... button(s) select channels to use.

Range of data to use: if desired, flicker may be calculated from just a part of the time history. To do this, enter a To value which is greater than the From value.

If flicker is calculated from active and reactive power, it can be calculated for a range of different network short-circuit power levels and impedance angles in a single calculation. Enter as many values as are required. Set default values supplies a set of standard impedance angles.
