In IEC harmonic measurement, this instrument performs Fourier transform on the input
signal and divides the signal into frequency components as follows:
• Interharmonics
If the input signal is 50 Hz, 10 periods of the waveform are divided in 5-Hz resolution.
Thus, the section between each harmonic order is divided into 10 sections. The
components between each harmonic order are called interharmonics.

When the fundamental signal is 50 Hz
If the input signal is 60 Hz, 12 periods of the waveform are divided in 5-Hz resolution.
Thus, the section between each harmonic order is divided into 12 sections.
