Data record gloss.voltage-imbalance.ieee1159.causes

Verified 2026-10-27 Confidence: High

IEEE 1159-2019 attributes minor voltage imbalance mainly to unbalanced single-phase loads on a three-phase circuit, with capacitor bank fuse failures and single-phase regulators as other causes, and severe imbalance to single-phasing conditions such as an open upstream protective device.
