CBEMA curve based on voltage standard
l Method to classify voltage sags as “acceptable” or “unacceptable” using CBEMA
l  V(t)=Vend+0.288e-1.06t+(0.712-Vend)e-23.7t
l    V(t)  = DC circuit voltage for a rectifier.  This is the voltage which is checked versus the voltage standard VTH (the threshold voltage in p.u below which a voltage sag is classified “unacceptable”)
l Vend = final DC Voltage if fault persists
l    Sag is considered “unacceptable” if V(t) < 0.87
