Power Quality – IEEE 519-2022
Published by Comsys AB, website: comsys.se, ADF Technology: Power quality – IEEE 519-2022 A commonly used and very important standard is IEEE 519-2022 (previous versions IEEE 519-1992 and IEEE 519-2014). The standard, among other things, puts two requirements on harmonics; and absolute maximum THDU level, and a variable maximum TDD level. All limits are appliedContinue reading “Power Quality – IEEE 519-2022”
Are You Compliant with the IEEE 519-2022 Edition?
Published by Elspec LTD, website: elspec-ltd.com The IEEE 519 standard defines the voltage and current harmonics distortion criteria for electrical systems design. The IEEE 519-2022 edition replaces the 2014 edition from December 2022. The IEEE 519-2022 edition includes two important changes: • Installations with mixed loads and Inverter Based Resources/Distributed Energy Resources• Even current harmonicsContinue reading “Are You Compliant with the IEEE 519-2022 Edition?”
Understanding the IEEE 519–2014 Standard for Harmonics
Published by Elspec LTD, website: elspec-ltd.com The IEEE 519-2014 standard defines the voltage and current harmonics distortion criteria for the design of electrical systems. The existed voltage and current waveforms in every part of the system are explained in this standard, and the waveform distortion goals for the system designer are established. The standard isContinue reading “Understanding the IEEE 519–2014 Standard for Harmonics”

Designing a Passive Filter for Reducing Harmonic Distortion in the Hybrid Micro-grid Including Wind Turbine, Solar Cell and Nonlinear Load
Published by Ali BAGHERI, Mohsen ALIZADEH, Department of Electrical Engineering, Yadegar -e- Imam Khomeini (RAH) Shahre Rey Branch, Islamic Azad University, Tehran, Iran Abstract. One of the most important indices of power quality in distribution grids is the harmonic distortion, which can affect the reliability of the micro-grid. On the other hand, the growth ofContinue reading “Designing a Passive Filter for Reducing Harmonic Distortion in the Hybrid Micro-grid Including Wind Turbine, Solar Cell and Nonlinear Load”
The Quality of Electric Power Supplied into the Grid by Co-Generation Units
Published by Jiri JANSA, Petr MOLDRIK, Daniel MINARIK, VSB – Technical University of Ostrava Abstract. This paper deals with the utilisation of firedamp for combined heat and electric power generation. The firedamp is gained from hard-coal mines and can be combusted in a co-generation units with gas-engine. This process involves more efficient utilisation of firedamp.Continue reading “The Quality of Electric Power Supplied into the Grid by Co-Generation Units”
