1.3.2 Working Principle
The low harmonic drive is a high-power frequency converter with an integrated active lter. An active lter is a device that
actively monitors harmonic distortion levels and injects compensative harmonic current onto the line to cancel the
harmonics.

Figure 1.1 Basic Layout for the Low Harmonic Drive
Low harmonic drives are designed to draw an ideal sinusoidal current waveform from the supply grid with a power factor of
1. Where traditional non-linear load draws pulse-shaped currents, the low harmonic drive compensates that via the parallel
lter path, lowering the stress on the supply grid. The low harmonic drive meets the highest harmonic standards with a
THDi less than 5% at full load for <3% pre-distortion on a 3% unbalanced 3-phase grid.
