Momentary Voltage Drop Countermeasure Webinar: Increasing Nationwide!! Momentary Voltage Drops Due to Lightning and Their Countermeasures [Afternoon Session]
This is an announcement for a free webinar hosted by the Power Protection Group of ABB's Electrification Business Smart Power Division. ABB, which has protected loads worldwide with its unique inverter technology, will explain the measures against momentary voltage drops caused by lightning, which have been on the rise in recent years. This webinar is aimed at those considering the introduction of countermeasures against momentary voltage drop damage or those who have already implemented measures but are struggling with update costs and operational expenses. ABB, a leader in the industry with its unique inverter technology, will hold a webinar on countermeasures for momentary voltage drops. In this webinar, we will explain the increase in lightning occurrences in recent years and the momentary voltage drops caused by them, as well as the countermeasures. We will also introduce the features of the PCS100 AVC-40, which ABB proposes for momentary voltage drop damage countermeasures. Program: ■ Expansion of momentary voltage drop damage due to increased lightning occurrences ■ Momentary voltage drops, power outages, and interruptions ■ Proportion of momentary voltage drops in power supply troubles ■ Over 10 years of operational performance worldwide! PCS100 AVC-40 ■ Introduction of installation achievements, including those in Japan Date and Time: October 6, 2023 (Friday) 11:00 AM ~ / 3:00 PM ~ (Each session lasts about 45 minutes, and the content is the same.)

ABB solutions achieve a 90% reduction in voltage sags at two semiconductor factories in Southeast Asia.
The ABB teams from New Zealand and Vietnam have partnered with Yoosung KN to introduce ABB's energy storage-less momentary voltage compensation device, the PCS100 AVC Active Voltage Conditioner, to two semiconductor factories in Southeast Asia. Fluctuations in power quality can cause serious issues for factory equipment. Since its installation, the PCS100 AVC has resolved these issues, which were costing millions of dollars each year.
