The authors will review the use of PrimeTime PX (PT PX) to measure active power. With PT PX, one will always get a power value. However, one cannot always rely on this initial power measurement. We will review the conditions under which the generated power numbers are inaccurate and provide strategies to avoid these pitfalls. We will describe a forced gate based flow using VCS and PT PX which e...

Subject review Total power losses in a power system consist of technical losses and commercial losses. Commercial losses are 30-40 % of total losses and appear as a result of unreliable measurement devices for electricity registering and wilful unauthorised consumption of electricity. It is almost impossible to find illegal connections in a distribution power system due to hidden main power cab...

We propose a method to measure the energy distribution of low-energy flares (nanoflares) in range below 1023 erg. As an example, we measured spectrum nanoflares 1021–1026 erg for two Sun’s frames observed by SDO/AIA telescope 171 Å channel. Nanoflares are shown have power law 1022–1026 range. The spectral index is approximately constant, i.e. energy-independent. For energies 1022 erg, begins co...
