Unlocking Precision: Customizing the GE Flicker Curve for Targeted Power Quality Solutions

This white paper explores the persistent issue of voltage-induced light flicker, a leading power quality complaint, and details the process of customizing the GE Flicker Curve using PMI recorders. It explains the physiological basis of flicker perception, the rationale for custom thresholds, and provides a step-by-step guide for adapting flicker settings to specific operational needs or customer sensitivities. The paper demonstrates how tailored flicker curves can help utilities address unique regional requirements and exclude known, non-irritating sources from triggering unnecessary alerts.

Key topics include:

- Flicker Perception and Causes
- What is the GE Flicker Curve
- Reasons to Define a New Curve
- GE Flicker Curve Default Settings
- How to Define New Flicker Parameters

Why utilities should care:
Customizable flicker curves enable precise power quality monitoring, reduce unnecessary complaints, and support compliance with local standards. This flexibility improves customer satisfaction and operational efficiency by focusing on actionable flicker events.
