In PQ News
Call of the Month for June 2025 A recent PQ Hotline inquiry from a PQ Knowledge Funder raised a critical question regarding the application of voltage sag mitigation in split-phase panel configurations. Specifically, the caller asked whether each line-to-neutral connection in a split-phase circuit requires separate mitigation or if a single line-to-line rated static series compensator could provide adequate protection in a more cost-effective manner.
