Abstract
Electric utilities in the United States spend in excess of one billion dollars annually to maintain or improve the quality of electric power supplied to their customers. Yet, an increasing and alarming number of complaints are being voiced by consumers whose equipment has in some way been affected by the quality of electricity. This paper describes some of the causes of this apparent dilemma and explores the implications for industry utilities and equipment manufacturers.
