Other Methods to Decrease Harmonic Distortion Limits
The first technique to control harmonic-related problems in industry involved substantial use of single-tuned filters to offer a low-impedance path to harmonic currents. Interestingly, it is not difficult to find harmonic-producing loads in the megavolt ampere range in industry operating with no harmonic filters. This is a difficult issue for power utilities to control because the existing standards are often more of a reference guideline for industry than a regulatory pronouncement. Large harmonic producers, typically in the industrial sector, may be the only producers that adopt harmonic filtering methods to reduce the otherwise multiple disturbances that may arise ...
