Solutions include power factor correction, harmonic filtering, infrared thermography inspections, and preventive maintenance schedules. Upgrading to variable frequency drives reduces motor energy consumption by 20-50%. Arc flash studies and proper labeling are now required under CSA Z462 electrical safety standards.
