This paper proposes a set of performance factors for load characterization and revenue metering. They are based on the Conservative Power Theory, and each of them relates to a specific load non-ideality (unbalance, reactivity, ...

This paper proposes an approach based on grey relational analysis to analyze and classify potentially disturbing loads taking into account the power factor, unbalance, harmonics and reactive power. By computer simulations, ...
