HARMONICS in different 3 system: In 3 systems, harmonics may be produced in the same way as in 1 system, Hence,fo: all calculations each harmonic is treated separately. Usually, EVEN harmonics are absent in 49 system. But care must be excreised when dealing with ODD harmonics, especially with 3". and all riple-n harmonics, The following points are important in harmonic analysis for 3¢ systems : @ All triple-n harmonics 34.9",15". ...etc, are in phase.

(iv) For Star-connected system ,the line voltages will be the difference between the successive phase voltages and hence will contain No 3, harmonic terms, because being identical in each phase, thus it will cance! out () For Delia-connected system the resultant emif acting around the closed loop would be the sum of the phase emfs, I is zero in the case of fundamental,S®,7®,11".,178 etc, but for 3,9"., 15" ete,the resultant emf is 3 times the Phase value acting in the loop.
