Big savings from power factor correction equipment
Barry Oliver, managing director of PFC Engineering, looks at the influence power factor correction measures can have and how electrical contractors can steer customers toward these savings.
Mainey gained considerable experience of the power quality issues affecting drives in previous senior positions at HID Hitachi and MTE Europe.
Already, PFC's Power Quality Division has experience in industries ranging from the drives market to city based IT installations.
PFC's move is a response to growing interest in power quality issues since the introduction of the electricity industry's G5/4 regulations last year.
However, Mainey emphasises that the new division will not simply monitor sites for power quality problems, but will also supply the most appropriate and cost effective solution for any problems direct from its UK base.
This drastically reduces delivery times.
Furthermore, PFC's Power Quality Division will also hold seminars for companies affected by power quality issues.
