Harmonic Mitigation Using Phase-shifting Transformers and Harmonic Filters
Published by Alex Roderick, EE Power – Technical Articles: Harmonic Mitigation Using Phase-shifting Transformers and Harmonic Filters, May 21, 2021. Learn about how minimise the presence of harmonics in an electrical system with harmonic transformers and filters. Three-phase loads do not generate triplen harmonics. Therefore, harmonic problems in situations where 3-phase loads dominate are primarily fromContinue reading “Harmonic Mitigation Using Phase-shifting Transformers and Harmonic Filters”
