3.6 Mains Supply Interference/Harmonics
A frequency converter takes up a non-sinusoidal current
from mains, which increases the input current I
RMS
. A non-
sinusoidal current is transformed by means of a Fourier
analysis and split up into sine-wave currents with different
frequencies, i.e. different harmonic currents I
N
with 50 Hz
as the basic frequency.

Table 3.15 Transformed Non-sinusoidal Current
The harmonics do not affect the power consumption
directly but increase the heat losses in the installation
(transformer, cables). Consequently, in plants with a high
percentage of rectifier load, maintain harmonic currents at
a low level to avoid overload of the transformer and high
temperature in the cables.

NOTE
Some of the harmonic currents might disturb communi-
cation equipment connected to the same transformer or
cause resonance in connection with power-factor
correction batteries.

Table 3.16 Harmonic currents compared to the RMS input current
To ensure low harmonic currents, the frequency converter
is equipped with intermediate circuit coils as standard. DC-
coils reduce the total harmonic distortion (THD) to 40%.

The Effect of Harmonics in a Power
Distribution System
In Illustration 3.25 a transformer is connected on the
primary side to a point of common coupling PCC1, on the
medium voltage supply. The transformer has an
impedance Z
xfr
and feeds a number of loads. The point of
