Harmonic voltage and harmonic current are common phenomena in power systems, and they have a great impact on power equipment and power grid operation. Harmonics refer to voltage or current components whose frequencies are integer multiples of the fundamental frequency. In power systems, the fundamental frequency is generally 50Hz or 60Hz, so the harmonic frequency is an integer multiple of 50Hz or...

The low-voltage power distribution system consists of a distribution substation (usually reducing the transmission voltage of the power grid to the distribution voltage), a high-voltage distribution line (i.e., a voltage above 1 kV), a distribution transformer, a low-voltage distribution line (a voltage below 1 kV), and corresponding control and protection equipment. Generally includes: Main equip...
