The article analyzes the main causes and consequences of voltage sags in industrial power supply systems. The study highlights the most typical sources of voltage disturbances, such as motor starting, short circuits, load changes, and equipment failures. The direct and indirect effects of voltage sags on industrial processes and equipment reliability are examined. Technical solutions for preventing and minimizing voltage sags, including the use of soft starters, frequency converters, reactive power compensation, and proper network design, are discussed. A systematic approach to monitoring and analyzing power quality parameters is proposed to enhance the resilience and efficiency of industrial enterprises.
