in the European standard EN 50160. However, the power quality standards like the
international standard IEC 61000-4-30 specify that the voltage variation event is
characterized by its duration and magnitude. Furthermore, IEEE Std 1159-1995 gives
the recommended practice for monitoring the electric power quality.
Voltage variation measurement can be done to the phase-to-earth and phase-
to-phase voltages. The power quality standards do not specify whether the
measurement should be done to phase or phase-to-phase voltages. However, in
some cases it is preferable to use phase-to-earth voltages for measurement. The
measurement mode is always TRMS.
