Power Quality Alamance County NC

Here’s what most business owners don’t realize: that one voltage sag that lasts half a second can shut down equipment for hours. In manufacturing, a single power quality event costs an average of $30,000 in lost production. For some industries, it’s closer to $75,000. And that’s just one incident. When voltage drops even 10%, your motors work harder to compensate. They overheat. Insulation breaks down faster. Bearings wear out sooner. What should’ve lasted 15 years fails in 8. You’re not just paying for repairs—you’re replacing equipment that should still be running. Harmonic distortion is even sneakier. It comes from the everyday equipment you rely on: computers, LED lights, variable frequency drives. These non-linear loads distort your electrical waveform, and that distortion heats up transformers, overloads neutral conductors, and trips breakers for no obvious reason. Most facilities don’t even know they have a harmonics problem until something fails. The businesses that call us have usually been dealing with these issues for months, sometimes years. They’ve replaced equipment. They’ve called other electricians. But nobody tested the actual power quality, so the real problem never got fixed. We do the testing. We find the source. And we solve it so it doesn’t keep happening.
