> Voltage quality
> Stability of the line frequency
The reliability of the energy supply and the voltage quality are
criteria at a local level there. However, the stability of the line
frequency is important for assessing the quality of the overall
grid. The lower its fluctuations, the higher the supply quality
and therefore also the grid stability. In turn, this means that
as much electrical energy is being generated as is currently
required by the consumers in the grid. However, when the
demand is higher than the energy that can be generated, then
the frequency in the grid decreases and energy providers must
react accordingly. If these measures are insufficient, then there
is an acute danger of major supply disruptions in the grid or
even the breakdown of the entire energy supply.
In the past, when you only had large power plants, load
flows were relatively stable. Producers and consumers could
be easily allocated, the targeted load cut-off for stabilization
was easily possible.
High test quality is ensured when these criteria are met. Errors
in the installation are correctly uncovered during the test and
not after disruptions have occurred during operation.
