What is harmonic and how to manage it? Harmonics denote electrical quantities that possess frequencies which are integer multiples of the fundamental wave present in the current. This concept typically involves the Fourier series decomposition of periodic, non-sinusoidal electrical quantities. In this context, any electrical quantity with a frequency exceeding that of the fundamental wave, derived...
Introduction to our 150A AHF module A 150A Active Harmonic Filter (AHF) module is a specific type of AHF designed to handle and compensate power quality up to 150 amperes. This module is used to improve power quality by reducing harmonic distortion,compensation reactive power and unbalance in electrical systems. Here’s a detailed overview of its installations, features, working principles, a...
Understanding the IEEE 519–2014 Standard for Harmonics The IEEE 519-2014 standard establishes criteria for voltage and current harmonics distortion in electrical system design. It provides detailed explanations of the existing voltage and current waveforms throughout the system and sets waveform distortion goals for system designers. The standard undergoes periodic updates to stay align...
What is Harmonic Mitigating Transformers? Harmonic Mitigating Transformers (HMTs) are specialized electrical devices designed to reduce energy wastage by minimizing losses caused by harmonic distortions. They achieve this through several mechanisms: 1. Triplen Harmonic Cancellation: By cancelling out zero phase sequence harmonic fluxes, HMTs prevent triplen harmonic currents from circulatin...
Resonance and Active Harmonic Filters Resonance in power systems can lead to significant issues such as harmonic amplification, overvoltages, and equipment damage. Active Harmonic Filters (AHFs) play a crucial role in mitigating harmonic distortion and preventing resonance. Understanding how resonance occurs and how AHF can be used to manage it is key to maintaining a stable and efficient electric...
How to calculate transformer efficiency? Transformers, like all electrical devices, experience some power losses during operation. While ideal transformers would be lossless, real-world transformers incur power losses that manifest as heat, necessitating cooling solutions. The main types of power losses in transformers are resistive loss, eddy current loss, hysteresis loss, and flux loss. R...
How do transformers and harmonic filters suppress harmonics? Harmonic Mitigation Techniques for Three-Phase Loads Three-phase loads do not produce triplen harmonics. Therefore, in environments dominated by three-phase loads, harmonic issues primarily arise from currents at the 5th, 7th, 17th, 19th, and higher harmonics. A harmonic mitigating transformer (HMT) can help reduce these ha...
What are Even and Odd order Harmonics? Even and Odd Order Harmonics refer to the classification of harmonics in an electrical system based on their frequency in relation to the fundamental frequency. Understanding the distinction between even and odd harmonics is important for analyzing and mitigating power quality issues. 1. Harmonics Overview: Fundamental Frequency: The base frequency of th...
