The article describes the importance of monitoring power quality parameters for stabilising the electricity grid. The recurrent and intermittent renewable energy connections also induce voltage fluctuations, harmonics, surges and imbalances in the grid. These are power quality issues which need to be addressed. - Jayant Sinha

The power quality issue is defined as any occurrence manifested in voltage, current, or frequency deviations those results in damage, upset, failure, or disoperation of end-use equipment. The history of Chaos Theory and Poincare Map are discussed here... - Rahul Shankar Bhagat, Mahesh Meena

Power factor compensation and harmonic filtration in integrated steel plants is a tool to reduce stress in electrical system. The paper focuses on energy efficiency issues and advantages with compensation and harmonic filtration. The paper presents comparative study of compensation requirement in various steel plant units. It would be interesting to find that requirement is the most in Rolling Mills, BOF, CCP, BF & Sinter Plant. In fact the entire steel plant is energy guzzler and with advent of drives, automation and precision requirement, fanning out electrical system stress has become more important and crucial… - Anil Kumar Choudhary, Md Mobinul Islam

The PSU’s total power generation includes those from its 25 subsidiary and JV companies too.

Owing to some shortcomings of thermoplastics, a need was felt to make thermoplastics behave like thermosets. This led to the development of a material, which is easily processable like a thermoplastic and should have higher thermal properties like thermosets in application…
