Electronic Arc Suppressors: Critical Protection for Switching Systems & SVGs The Core Challenge: Destructive Arcing When mechanical switches (contactors, relays, breakers) or semiconductors (IGBTs, thyristors) interrupt current – especially in inductive DC circuits – stored magnetic energy (1/2*LI^2) generates extreme voltage spikes (V=−Ldi/dt). This ionizes air bet...
We all know that the full name of AHF is Active Harmonic Filter, so is there such a thing as a Passive Harmonic Filter? The answer is YES! But here’s the big question — do you really understand the differences between active and passive harmonic filters, and when to choose one over the other? Let’s break it down in a way that’s easy to follow, yet technically accurate...
