Abstract

Harmonics plays very important role in the stability and economic operation of the power system. Harmonics results in heating of equipments and under efficiency of the electrical components. In this report we have tried to throw light on the location & selection of the filter to be used in the power system. The case study of the spinning mill was to carry out the study of the harmonics levels as against the IEC standards and reduce overall losses of the system by maintaining the noise level within acceptable limits. The voltage and current distortion levels were also analysed. The report is made in order to present the details of harmonics and how can they be neutralised. Furthermore the optimum method using active harmonics filters is discussed along with some frequently asked queries and standards.
