An evolving grid, alternative power supplies, and changing regulations are all creating new power quality challenges for businesses. Poor power quality can affect energy efficiency, equipment performance, and, ultimately, operating costs. Facilities management and maintenance teams therefore need to know how to pinpoint, diagnose, and address poor power quality. However, knowing that good power quality is important and understanding how to measure, interpret, and correct it are two separate things. That’s why Fluke, a leading manufacturer of electrical test equipment, including power quality analysers (PQA), is hosting a free five-part webinar series this November and December. Aimed at maintenance engineers, technicians, and facilities managers, Fluke’s free webinars will teach you how to find hidden electrical issues, analyse power quality data, and identify energy-saving opportunities.

Webinar 1: Power Quality in the Age of Renewables: Understanding Harmonics, Unbalance, & Neutral Issues
Date: Wednesday 4th November 2026
Time: 9 am UK Time (GMT)
Led By: Eric van Riet, Field Application Engineers Manager
Key Takeaway: Diagnose power quality problems associated with modern electrical networks
As the world moves towards greater renewable energy generation, maintaining reliable power quality is becoming increasingly important. In Fluke’s first webinar, discover how the 1730 and 1770 Power Quality Analysers can help you identify and understand issues, such as voltage and current unbalance, harmonics, and neutral problems, and the impact these can have on motors, transformers, drives, and other critical electrical systems. Alongside Fluke’s expert, you’ll explore the practical ways to measure, diagnose, and troubleshoot power quality issues, helping you stay ahead of potential problems as modern electrical networks become more complex.
Webinar 2: Understanding ISO 8528: Hidden Risks & Start-up Challenges
Date: Wednesday 11th November 2026
Time: 9 am UK Time (GMT)
Led By: Marc Sherwood, Field Application Engineers Manager
Key Takeaway: Investigate risks in critical power and standby generator systems
UPS systems provide critical power protection, but can also introduce hidden power quality challenges affecting connected equipment, standby generators, and overall system resilience. This technical webinar explores how Fluke power quality analysers can identify issues including harmonics, voltage/current unbalance, transients, frequency variations, neutral currents, and power factor. Together with Fluke’s expert, you’ll examine the interaction between UPS systems, non-linear loads, and standby generators, as well as the importance of standards such as ISO 8528 in verifying generator performance under real-world load conditions. You’ll also learn practical measurement and diagnostic techniques to uncover hidden risks and improve the reliability of critical power systems.
Webinar 3: Hidden Energy Loss: Real-world Power Quality & the Fluke Energy Loss Calculator
Date: Wednesday 25th November 2026
Time: 9 am UK Time (GMT)
Led By: Mark Bakker, Field Application Engineer
Key Takeaway: Translate power quality measurements into energy-loss and cost estimates
Poor power quality can lead to increased losses, overheating, reduced equipment efficiency and unnecessary energy costs. Join Fluke’s technical webinar to explore how Fluke power quality analysers can identify real-world issues such as harmonics, voltage and current unbalance, poor power factor, and load-related losses. Fluke will also demonstrate their energy loss calculator, showing how power-quality measurements can be translated into practical energy loss and cost data. Discover how accurate measurement and analysis can help identify energy-saving opportunities, optimise electrical systems, and improve overall efficiency.
Webinar 4: The Changing Grid: Power Quality, EN 50160 & the Cost of Wasted Energy
Date: Wednesday 2nd December 2026
Time: 9 am UK Time (GMT)
Led By: Eric van Riet, Field Application Engineers Manager
Key Takeaway: Understand supply quality standards and the financial implications of power quality
As the electrical grid evolves with increasing renewable generation, power electronics, and more complex loads, maintaining power quality is becoming increasingly important. Join Fluke’s fourth webinar to explore how power quality analysers can help identify issues such as harmonics, voltage variations, unbalance, and poor power factor, and understand their impact on system performance and energy costs. The webinar will also look at EN 50160 and the key power quality characteristics it defines at the public supply network, as well as why businesses can end up paying for energy that delivers little or no useful work due to reactive power, losses, and inefficient loads. Discover how effective measurement can help turn power quality data into practical improvements in efficiency, reliability, and energy management.
Webinar 5: The Real Cost of Industrial Downtime: Uncovering the Effects of Bad Power Quality on Motors
Date: Wednesday 9th December 2026
Time: 9 am UK Time (GMT)
Led By: Mark Bakker, Field Application Engineer
Key Takeaway: Investigate electrical problems that can lead to motor failures and costly downtime
Power-quality issues can go unnoticed until they result in equipment trips, interruptions, production stoppages, and costly downtime. The final webinar in Fluke’s series explores how power quality analysers can help identify hidden electrical issues such as voltage dips, transients, harmonics, unbalance, and interruptions before they become costly failures. We’ll look beyond the immediate energy expenses to understand the real cost of downtime, including lost production, wasted resources, equipment stress, and disruption to operations. Discover practical measurement and analysis techniques to identify the root causes of power-quality events and help improve system reliability, uptime, and operational efficiency.
