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 ...
This month we step outside the confines of Ask the Experts to address topics covered in previous power quality articles. John DeDad, editorial director of EC&M, clarifies some points made by fellow ...
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 ...
Editor’s Note: Harmonic voltages in the power supply can raise the temperature of electrical equipment and therefore inhibit performance. As a result of the increased application of high-speed ...
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 ...
The steady increase in non-linear loads on the power supply network such as, for instance, variable speed motor drives (VSDs), raises questions about power quality and reliability. In this respect, a ...
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 ...
