Undervoltage load shedding

Undervoltage load shedding is a protective strategy used in electrical power systems to prevent widespread blackouts. When voltage levels drop below a predetermined threshold, certain non-essential loads are temporarily disconnected to stabilize the system and restore voltage levels. This process helps maintain the integrity of the grid and ensures that essential services remain operational during voltage disturbances. It is a critical component of grid management, especially during peak demand or system faults.
