Supplemental techniques for characterizing power quality events in an electrical system

A system comprising:

• at least one processor;
• and
• at least one memory device coupled to the at least one processor, the at least one processor and the at least one memory device are configured to:
• process electrical measurement data from or derived from energy-related signals captured by at least one metering device to identify a power quality event associated with at least one load monitored by the at least one metering device, wherein the at least one metering device and the at least one load are installed at respective locations in the electrical system;
• determine if the identified power quality event has an operational impact on the at least one load or on the electrical system;
• in a case that to determining that the identified power quality event has an impact on the at least one load or on the electrical system:
• determine a recovery time by which the at least one load or the electrical system to recovered from the identified power quality event;
• and
• tag the recovery time to differentiate normal from atypical or abnormal, based on the determined recovery time;
• select a mitigation solution configured for mitigating the impact of a power quality event on an electrical system, wherein selecting the mitigation solution uses the tagging of recovery time from one or more power quality events previously identified and determined to have the impact on the load in association with the electrical system or another electrical system or on another load in association with the electrical system to mitigate the impact;
• and
• implement the mitigation solution, wherein the mitigation solution includes causing generation of at least one control signal configured to modify an operation of at least one controllable component associated with the electrical system.
