Power Drop

A Hidden Risk to Electrical Assets

Understanding Power Drop Condition

Power drop in an industrial setting A power drop occurs when there is a sudden, temporary decrease in voltage or a brief loss of electrical supply. Unlike a total power outage, power drops are short-lived but can have long-term damaging effects on electrical assets. These fluctuations often result from grid instability, high inrush currents, or overloaded circuits, leading to system malfunctions, reduced equipment lifespan, and unexpected downtime.

At Volta Insite, our InsiteAI technology provides real-time monitoring to detect power drops as they happen, helping facilities prevent costly disruptions and maintain optimal system performance.

Why Power Drops Are a Critical Concern

Sudden voltage drops can cause significant issues for electrical systems, including:

Equipment Malfunctions & Data Loss

Sensitive electronics and industrial equipment may shut down or reset unexpectedly, leading to data corruption and lost productivity.

Premature Wear on Electrical Components

Frequent power drops put stress on motors, relays, and power supplies, reducing their operational lifespan.

Increased Downtime & Production Losses

Power fluctuations can interrupt automated processes, leading to costly delays and reduced operational efficiency.

Higher Maintenance & Repair Costs

Repeated exposure to power drops can cause cumulative damage, requiring more frequent repairs and increasing maintenance expenses.
