Simulate Grid Disturbance Conditions

Testing server power supplies requires reproducing controlled AC voltage disturbances including sags, surges, frequency variations, and complete line interruptions while monitoring the response of the power conversion circuitry. Engineers evaluate input voltage behavior together with output stability, recovery time, and hold-up performance under programmable operating conditions.

The validation process combines a programmable alternating current power source with electronic loading to recreate realistic operating profiles while measuring voltage, current, harmonic content, and transition behavior. Automated test sequences execute multiple disturbance scenarios and capture measurement results for analysis across power supply units and battery backup systems operating under representative data center conditions.

Power Ride-Through Test Solution

Power ride-through testing requires generating repeatable AC voltage disturbances while accurately measuring how power systems respond during abnormal operating conditions. The solution combines programmable AC and DC power generation, disturbance simulation, precision measurement, harmonic analysis, and automated control in a single platform. Engineers can create voltage sags, surges, dropouts, frequency variations, and complete AC interruptions while monitoring voltage, current, and harmonic performance. The platform also supports battery backup transition testing, scalable output power from 3 kVA to 72 kVA through parallel operation, and automation through LAN, USB, and GPIB interfaces for repeatable validation workflows. This capability is described as a primary application of the AC6900 Series for testing power supply units, power conversion units, and battery backup units.
