1. Summary Due to the advantages of simple control and low cost of uncontrolled rectifying converter, it is widely used in switching power supply, frequency converter and other equipment. However, this kind of converter will inject a large amount of harmonic current into the power grid, and increasingly become the most important harmonic source in the power grid. Most of the frequency converters o...
Harmonics: Not a Problem Unless They Become One Harmonics in modern power systems are now considered “the new normal” due to the widespread use of non-linear loads. While harmonics can lead to issues such as overheating, overloads, and resonance, they don’t always pose immediate problems. The key is understanding when harmonics are actually causing harm. When Should You Ac...
I. Why Are Non-Linear Loads So Ubiquitous in Our Daily Lives? The fundamental reason is technological advancement and our relentless pursuit of efficiency and control. The core of non-linear loads is various power electronic devices that precisely control electrical energy through rapid switching. Here are the specific reasons for their ubiquity: Demand for Energy Savings and Efficiency:...
