A Study on the Analysis of Harmonics Aspects on Low-voltage AC Mains

저압 전원계통에서 고조파 양상의 분석에 관한 연구

This paper presents the aspect and distribution of voltage and current harmonics being made at low voltage power systems. The voltage and current harmonics in power systems supplying various loads were monitored and analyzed. We have examined the results compared to advanced countries' harmonics control standards. As a result, the current harmonics were significantly greater than the voltage harmonics. In particular, the harmonics of currents flowing through loads with power switching electronics was pronounced. Also, the contents of current harmonics of street lamp circuits was about 30%, and it was decreased to 12.3% with the installation of series reactor. On the whole, The measured results of voltage and current harmonics exceeds the regulation limits recommended by IEEE 519-1992.
