No harmonic mitigation solution is ideal for every application. So, once you or your client decides to reduce harmonic distortion on a facility electrical power system, you must consider several ...
The proliferation of end-use electrical and electronic loads in customer facilities — residential, commercial, and industrial — is not slowing down. Despite economic pressures, utility customers are ...
[Editor's Note: The need for controlling the level of harmonic current in power distribution systems is widely recognized as an important factor in selecting and applying adjustable-speed drives (AFDs ...
MTE Corp.’s Series B Matrix Low Pass Harmonic Filters substantially reduce harmonic current distortion and improve true power factor in virtually any 6-pulse rectifier application while offering lower ...
AC motors are abundant in the HVAC industry. Every fan and pump application requires an AC motor. For efficient and reliable control, adjustable-speed drives are becoming a common companion for these ...
When discussing electronic circuits, I often lock onto the circuit's magnitude characteristics. For example, we refer to filters as high pass, low pass, or band pass, which is a shorthand way to ...
Almost all off line switching power supplies over several kilowatts of output power use a three phase bridge rectifier. Typically, it comprises a six diode bridge and a DC bus filter capacitor. A ...
