Operation effect to voltage SAG Immunity Levels of AC Contractors at petrochemical plant in Pahang, Malaysia
Frequent voltage sag events at Gebeng Industrial Area posed a significant impact on the process lines of a petrochemical plant. Several of its important electrical/electronic equipment which is controlled by AC contactors had tripped, resulting in long downtime and high losses. In order to understan...
