Over 390 international representatives from the electric utility industry, end-users manufacturers, government and academia met in Atlanta, Georgia, at the Second International Conference on Power Quality: End-Use Applications and Perspectives - PQA`92. As the use of sensitive micro-processing equipment continues to increase within commercial, industrial and residential applications, the need to understand power quality issues also increases. End-use research and development is providing novel approaches to understanding and reducing the sensitivity of customer loads to power quality disturbances. Success in these efforts will help improve customer satisfaction, productivity, and profitability, and help utilities avoid lost revenues due to customer disruptions and customer migration. The ten session conference focused on international power quality monitoring, identification, and mitigating practices. Innovative research and development projects were also highlighted. In total 58 presentations were given addressing issues including but not limited to: sensitive equipment design and specification; proper grounding and wiring practices; end-user options for power quality assurance; and solving power quality problems. Of special interest to conference attendees was the work being done on developing power quality standards both within the US and Europe. Additionally, conference attendees were encouraged to attend a series of tutorials offered prior to PQA`92 on: (a) comparative analysis of European and US Standards (b) transient voltage surge suppressers (c) power quality impact of residential loads in the distribution network. Selected papers were indexed separately for inclusion in the Energy Science and Technology Database.
