These waveform distortion in current are called current harmonics. The harmonic current produced by the nonlinear loads flow through the system impedances and generate voltage harmonics. SOURCES OF HARMONICS: + Variable speed AC/DC Drives, UPS systems, Rectifiers + SMPS, Static converters, Thyristorcontrolled systems Frequency controlled induction furnaces + Arcing equipment, Arc furnace, Welding, Lighting + When saturations reached in Transformers, motors, Generators PROBLEMS CREATED BY HARMONICS: + Reduced energy efficiency in the networks Excessive Heating and failure of capacitors, Fuses, Motors, Transformers, Cables, Switchgears and Lighting Ballast et. Nuisance tripping of circuit breaker or frequent blowing offuses. Erroneous operation of control system equipments. Damages to sensitive electronic equipment's and communi tion interferences.
