Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

Power electronics devices are widespread in different engineering systems for housing and public utilities. But they have negative impacts to the power source. A typical example is using of the pumps operated by variable frequency drive in boiler stations and heating substations. The using helps both the energy savings and the voltage waveform distortion. If boiler station is supplied by emergency generator the voltage waveform distortion significantly increases. Voltage quality parameters are analyzed using a simulation model, built in MATLAB/Simulink, in different situations. The recommendations to ensure the specified voltage quality in the power supply system are created.
