Where is the power of the IEEE 1459-2010?

The integration of the IEEE 1459-2010 power definitions with the IEC 61000-4-30 PQ standard is investigated. A Class A PQ instrument, which record network coherent data with an absolute time uncertainty of less than 100 ns, is used to analyse and evaluate this opportunity. This paper then propose how the usefulness of the IEEE 1459-2010 parameters to better understand the performance of a modern power system in addition to PQ characterisation.
