This paper proposes an alternative methodology for the characterization of industrial process sensitivity to voltage sags using a power quality (PQ) monitoring system. Several methodologies have been used for voltage sag characterization as can be seen in the literature. The load behavior is classified for each event registered by PQ monitors. Several characterization methods are analyzed to select the most consistent methodology for the characterization of load sensitivity.
