Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) -- Part 4-30: Testing and measurement techniques - Power quality measurement methods

Defines the methods for measurement and interpretation of results for power quality parameters in 50/60 Hz a.c. power supply systems. The power quality parameters considered in this standard are power frequency, magnitude of the supply voltage, flicker, supply voltage dips and swells, voltage interruptions, transient voltages, supply voltage unbalance, voltage and current harmonics and interharmonics, mains signalling on the supply voltage and rapid voltage changes. Depending on the purpose of the measurement, all or a subset of the phenomena on this list may be measured. This standard is a performance specification, not a design specification. The uncertainty tests in the ranges of influence quantities in this standard determine the performance requirements. This standard gives measurement methods but does not set thresholds.

ELECTROMAGNETIC COMPATIBILITY (EMC) –
Part 4-30: Testing and measurement techniques – Power quality measurement methods
FOREWORD 1) The IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of the IEC is to promote international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To this end and in addition to other activities, the IEC publishes International Standards. Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. The IEC collaborates closely with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by agreement between the two organizations. 2) The formal decisions or agreements of the IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all interested National Committees. 3) The documents produced have the form of recommendations for international use and are published in the form of standards, technical specifications, technical reports or guides and they are accepted by the National Committees in that sense. 4) In order to promote international unification, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC International Standards transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional standards. Any divergence between the IEC Standard and the corresponding national or regional standard shall be clearly indicated in the latter. 5) The IEC provides no marking procedure to indicate its approval and cannot be rendered responsible for any instrument declared to be in conformity with one of its standards. 6) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this International Standard may be the subject of patent rights. The IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. International Standard IEC 61000-4-30 has been prepared by subcommittee 77A: Low- frequency phenomena, of IEC technical committee 77: Electromagnetic compatibility. This standard forms part 4-30 of IEC 61000. It has the status of a basic EMC publication in accordance with IEC Guide 107. The text of this standard is based on the following documents: FDIS Report on voting 77A/398/FDIS 77A/402/RVD
Full information on the voting for the approval of this standard can be found in the report on voting indicated in the above table. This publication has been drafted in accordance with the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The committee has decided that the contents of this publication will remain unchanged until 2005. At this date, the publication will be
• reconfirmed; • withdrawn; • replaced by a revised edition, or • amended. The contents of the corrigendum of August 2006 have been included in this copy.

61000-4-30 © IEC:2003– 9 –ELECTROMAGNETIC COMPATIBILITY (EMC) –Part 4-30: Testing and measurement techniques –Power quality measurement methods1 ScopeThis part of IEC 61000-4 defines the methods for measurement and interpretation of results forpower quality parameters in 50/60 Hz a.c. power supply systems.Measurement methods are described for each relevant type of parameter in terms that willmake it possible to obtain reliable, repeatable and comparable results regardless of thecompliant instrument being used and regardless of its environmental conditions. This standardaddresses measurement methods for in situ measurements.Measurement of parameters covered by this standard is limited to those phenomena that canbe conducted in a power system. These include the voltage and/or current parameters, asappropriate.The power quality parameters considered in this standard are power frequency, magnitude ofthe supply voltage, flicker, supply voltage dips and swells, voltage interruptions, transientvoltages, supply voltage unbalance, voltage and current harmonics and interharmonics, mainssignalling on the supply voltage and rapid voltage changes. Depending on the purpose of themeasurement, all or a subset of the phenomena on this list may be measured.This standard is a performance specification, not a design specification. The uncertainty testsin the ranges of influence quantities in this standard determine the performance requirements.This standard gives measurement methods but does not set thresholds.The effects of transducers being inserted between the power system and the instrument areacknowledged but not addressed in detail in this standard. Precautions on installing monitorson live circuits are addressed.2 Normative referencesThe following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document.

“Channel” and “phase” are not the same.
A voltage channel is by definition the difference in potentialbetween 2 conductors. Phase refers to a single conductor. On polyphase systems, a channel may be between 2phases, or between a phase and neutral, or between a phase and earth.3.2declared input voltage, Udinvalue obtained from the declared supply voltage by a transducer ratio3.3declared supply voltage, Ucdeclared supply voltage Uc is normally the nominal voltage Un of the system.

This definition of hysteresis is relevant to PQ measurement parameters and is different from the IEVdefinition which is relevant to iron core saturation.NOTE 2
The purpose of hysteresis in the context of PQ measurements is to avoid counting multiple events whenthe magnitude of the parameter oscillates about the threshold level.3.12influence quantityany quantity which may affect the working performance of a measuring equipment[IEV 311-06-01, modified]NOTE
This quantity is generally external to the measurement equipment.3.13interharmonic componentcomponent having an interharmonic frequency[IEC 61000-2-2, definition 3.2.6]NOTE

Interruptions are a special case of a voltage dip. Post-processing may be used to distinguish betweenvoltage dips and interruptions.NOTE 2
In some areas of the world a voltage dip is referred to as sag. The two terms are consideredinterchangeable; however, this standard will only use the term voltage dip.3.31voltage swelltemporary increase of the voltage at a point in the electrical system above a threshold3.32voltage unbalancecondition in a polyphase system in which the r.m.s. values of the line voltages (fundamentalcomponent), or the phase angles between consecutive line voltages, are not all equal[IEV 161-08-09, modified]NOTE 1
The degree of the inequality is usually expressed as the ratios of the negative- and zero-sequencecomponents to the positive-sequence component.NOTE 2
In this standard, voltage unbalance is considered in relation to 3-phase systems.

4 General
4.1 Classes of measurement performance For each parameter measured, two classes of measurement performance are defined. – Class A performance This class of performance is used where precise measurements are necessary, for example, for contractual applications, verifying compliance with standards, resolving disputes, etc. Any measurements of a parameter carried out with two different instruments complying with the requirements of class A, when measuring the same signals, will produce matching results within the specified uncertainty.
To ensure that matching results are produced, class A performance requires a bandwidth characteristic and a sampling rate sufficient for the specified uncertainty of each parameter. – Class B performance
This class of performance may be used for statistical surveys, trouble-shooting applications, and other applications where low uncertainty is not required. For each performance class the range of influencing factors that shall be complied with is specified in 6.1. Users shall select the class of measurement performance taking account of the situation of each application case. NOTE 1 A measurement instrument may have different performance classes for different parameters.
NOTE 2 The instrument manufacturer should declare influence quantities which are not expressly given and which may degrade performance of the instrument. 4.2 Organization of the measurements The electrical quantity to be measured may be either directly accessible, as is generally the case in low-voltage systems, or accessible via measurement transducers.
The whole measurement chain is shown in Figure 1. MeasurementtransducersMeasurementunitEvaluationunit Input signal tobe measuredElectrical inputsignalMeasurementresultMeasurementevaluationIEC
323/03 Figure 1 – Measurement chain An "instrument" usually includes the whole measurement chain (see Figure 1). In this standard, the normative part does not consider the measurement transducers and their associated uncertainty, but Clause A.2 gives guidance. 4.3 Electrical values to be measured Measurements can be performed on single-phase or polyphase supply systems. Depending on the context, it may be necessary to measure voltages between phase conductors and neutral (line-to-neutral) or between phase conductors (line-to-line) or between neutral and earth. It is not the purpose of this standard to impose the choice of the electrical values to be measured. Moreover, except for the measurement of voltage unbalance, which is intrinsically polyphase, the measurement methods specified in this document are such that independent results can be produced on each measurement channel.



61000-4-30 © IEC:2003 – 21 –
Current measurements can be performed on each conductor of supply systems, including the neutral conductor and the protective earth conductor.
NOTE It is often useful to measure current simultaneously with voltage and to associate the current measurements in 1 conductor with voltage measurements between that conductor and a reference conductor, such as an earth conductor or a neutral conductor.
