Introduction to Power System Harmonics




Introduction to Power System Harmonics

The course describes harmonic distortion and its different causes, as well as the issues and practical restrictions involved with harmonics.

The course teaches students how to identify, reduce, and avoid power quality harmonics problems, as well as how to assess harmonic distortion levels.

This course will cover harmonics distortion fundamentals, as well as how harmonic reduction can result in immediate savings in terms of power losses, electricity bills, and the ability to utilize the entire system's capacity. IEEE-519 recommendation is covered in-depth.


After completion of this course, students would have a meaningful understanding of

· voltage and current harmonics.

· the impact that harmonics can have on the electrical power systems.

· typical causes of harmonics current.

· simple methods to analyze harmonics distortion.

· methods to minimize harmonics.
