Voltage Regulators:...
The peak and effective value of harmonics When discussing the peak of harmonic currents, it's essential to first understand the fundamentals of harmonics. The effective value (RMS value) of a harmonic describes the average power of the harmonic component over one period, reflecting the equivalent extent to which the harmonic causes heating effects in the system. However, the peak of a harmonic (th...
The harm of harmonics to power capacitors mainly includes the following aspects 1. Overcurrent and Overload -Harmonics can cause distortion of voltage and current at the capacitor terminals, especially at specific harmonic frequencies, where capacitors resonate with inductive components in the system, resulting in significant amplification of harmonic currents. Excessive harmonic current causes th...
