The Impact

The set of characteristics that determine the power quality (PQ) can be used to describe the state and efficiency of the power supply system in terms of the influence of electromagnetic interference. The impact of electromagnetic interference on electrical equipment is manifested in the reduction of uptime, additional losses of active power, data loss, etc. The most common sources of interference in modern conditions are consumers with non-linear volt-ampere characteristics. This type of electrical receivers creates a distortion of the current and voltage waveform. In view of the widespread use of these power consumers in daily life and industry, special attention should be paid to the problems of harmonic distortion. This article presents the results of measurements and analysis of the quality of electricity, and also shows the effect of applying an active filter (AF) to ensure the quality of electricity in the distribution network (66/20 kV) of the city of Lattakia in the Syrian Arab Republic. The definition of the optimal capacitance of the AF dc link using the particle swarm method is given in order to minimize the total non- sinusoidal current and voltage in the studied electrical network.

The Impact

This paper investigates the harmonic distortion and losses in power distribution systems due to the dramatic increase of nonlinear loads. This paper tries to determine the amount of the harmonics generated by nonlinear loads in residential, commercial and office loads in distribution feeders and estimates the energy losses due to these harmonics. Norton equivalent modeling technique has been used to model the nonlinear loads. The presented harmonic Norton equivalent models of the end user appliances are accurately obtained based on the experimental data taken from the laboratory measurements. A 20 kV/400V distribution feeder is simulated to analyze the impact of nonlinear loads on feeder harmonic distortion level and losses. The model follows a “bottom-up” approach, starting from end users appliances Norton equivalent model and then modeling residential, commercial and office loads. Two new indices are introduced by the authors to quantize the effect of each nonlinear appliance on the power quality of a distribution feeder and loads are ranked based on these new defined indices. The simulation results show that harmonic distortion in distribution systems can increase power losses up to 20%.

Switching frequency modulation (SFM) as spread-spectrum technique has been used for electromagnetic interference reduction in switching power converters. In this paper, a switching-frequency-modulated boost power factor correction (PFC) converter operating in continuous conduction mode is analysed in detail in terms of its input power quality. Initially, the effect of SFM on the input current total harmonic distortion, power factor and low-frequency harmonics of the PFC converter are studied by using computer simulations. Some advices on choosing parameters of SFM are given. Then the theoretical results are verified experimentally. It is shown that, from a power quality point of view, SFM can be harmful (it can significantly worsen the power quality of the PFC converter) or almost harmless. The results depend on how properly the modulation parameters are selected.

The parameters of electrical network modes often do not meet the requirements of Russian GOST 32144-2013 and the guidelines of Vietnam. In the actual operating conditions while there is the non-sinusoidal mode in electrical networks voltage and current harmonics are present. Harmonics result in overheating and damage of power transformers since they cause additional active power losses. Additional losses lead to the additional heat release, accelerating the process of insulating paper, transformer oil and magnetic structure deterioration consequently shortening the service life of a power transformer. In this regard there arises a need to develop certain scientific methods that would help demonstrate that low power quality, for instance could lead to a decrease in the electrical equipment service life. Currently we see a development of automated systems for continuous monitoring of power quality indices and mode parameters of electrical networks. These systems could be supplemented by characteristics calculating programs that give out a warning upon detection of the adverse influence of voltage and current harmonics on various electrical equipment of both electric power providers and electric power consumers. A software program presented in the article may be used to predict the influence of voltage and current harmonics on power transformers.
