| Abstract |
Large steel industries have nonlinear loads including electric arc furnaces. These nonlinear loads generate harmonic currents and create distortions on the sinusoidal voltage of the power system. This paper provides an in depth analysis on harmonics field measurement of the electric arc furnace loads, adding a single-tuned filter at the customer bus for reducing harmonic distortion and harmonics assessment by the international harmonic standards IEC 61000-3-6 and IEEE Std. 519. The EDSA program was used as a simulation tool for the case study. |
