Noise and Vibration Analysis of a Distribution Transformer
Published by Dániel MARCSA, eCon Engineering Kft., Hungary Abstract. Transformer noise is a significant contribution to unwanted ambient noise, especially in the vicinity of the electrical transmission facility. It is therefore very important to get to know the mechanism of noise generation of the distribution transformer. As outcomes of this work, a finite element basedContinue reading “Noise and Vibration Analysis of a Distribution Transformer”
Five Ways to Reduce Harmonics in Circuits and Power Distribution Systems
Published by Alex Roderick, EE Power – Technical Articles: Five Ways to Reduce Harmonics in Circuits and Power Distribution Systems, May 24, 2021. There are several ways to reduce the problems of harmonics in a circuit or power distribution system. A K-rated transformer is designed to withstand the overheating problems created by harmonics. A harmonic mitigatingContinue reading “Five Ways to Reduce Harmonics in Circuits and Power Distribution Systems”

Billing Measurements in the High and Extra-High Voltage Network taking into Account the New Frequency Classes According to IEC 61869-1 ED2 (AFDIS)
Published by Roland Buerger (Senseleq B.V.), Dr. Thomas Heid (CONDIS SA) Internationally, it is not easy to specify the range of high voltage exactly. The boundary between medium and high voltage is between 30 kV and 100 kV, depending on local and historical conditions. In the current version of EN 50160 from 2020, the voltageContinue reading “Billing Measurements in the High and Extra-High Voltage Network taking into Account the New Frequency Classes According to IEC 61869-1 ED2 (AFDIS)”
Reactors in a Power System
Published by Alex Roderick, EE Power – Technical Articles Reactors in a Power System, May 03, 2021. This article highlights two common types of reactors which are the dry-type and the oil-immersed. In an AC circuit, reactance is the opposition to current flow. A reactor, also known as a line reactor, is a coil wired in series betweenContinue reading “Reactors in a Power System”
