 is measured over each 2-hour interval. The 
following is the conformance specification for these measurements in low- and 
medium-voltage systems:
•P
lt
 must be less than or equal to 1 for 95% of each week
Supply Voltage Unbalance
Mean rms values of fundamental positive and negative sequence voltages are 
measured each valid 10 minute interval. The following is the conformance 
specification for these measurements in low- and medium-voltage systems:
• Negative sequence voltage within the range 0…2% of the positive sequence 
voltage for 95% of each week
Harmonic Voltage
Mean rms values of each harmonic voltage are measured each valid 10 minute 
interval. The following is the conformance specification for these measurements 
in low-voltage systems:
• Harmonic voltage is less than or equal to the values listed in Table 228
 
(low-voltage) or Table 229
 (medium-voltage) for 95% of each week
• Voltage THD including harmonics up to the 40th order is less than or 
equal to 8%
