B. Case 2: Unbalanced Swells due to Unsymmetrical
conditions
Another important power quality aspect that generally the
power system subjected to is: Voltage swell is quite
opposite to sag: increasing the voltage more than one cycle
and less than a few seconds. This power quality issue arises
due to: sudden change in the reference of the ground, raise
in un-faulted phases, large loads de-energiszation,
insulation failure, damage to the very sensitive loads etc.
