Abstract
Delivering quality power to industrial and commercial customers is of strategic business importance to utilities. In addition, business economics now require utilities to look for the most cost-effective solutions. This paper shows how power quality can be improved for customers with sensitive equipment loads by utilizing current-limiting fuses on distribution feeders and/or laterals. The installation of more expensive power conditioning equipment can be avoided in many situations.
