Introduction

Power system harmonics is an area that is receiving a great deal of

attention recently
Harmonic currents are caused by non-linear loads connected to the
distribution system
A load is said to be non-linear when the current it draws does not
have the same waveform as the supply voltage
currents through system impedances in turn creates voltage
harmonics, which distort the supply voltage
occurrence of the harmonics is a big problems due to changes of the
power system resonance or magnitude.
 electric voltages and currents on an electric power system that can
cause power quality problems.
Example: equipment and machinery can malfunction or fail in the
presence of high harmonic voltage and/or current levels, harmonic
distortion has become a growing concern for facility managers, users of
automation equipment, and engineers.
 Measurement device and method
By using mathematical method, harmonic spectrum of currents and
voltages (amplitudes and percentage of the fundamental) ,The THD
for current and voltage and Fourier theory analysis.
Fourier theory analysis
 oscilloscope which an initial indication on the distortion affecting a
signal can be obtained by viewing the current or the voltage on an
oscilloscope
Example : when it diverges from a sinusoidal, clearly indicates the
presence of harmonics.
Fluke 435, Fluke's three-phase power meters will quickly provide the
answers needed to get things running smoothly.
Example : for troubleshooting to find the answers now; or as
benchmarking tools to discover the trend of power quality over time.
Conclusion
The flow of harmonic currents through system impedances in turn
creates voltage harmonics, which distort the supply voltage.
harmonics effect can detect by using FLUKE 435 which is device for
measure harmonics disorder in power lines
By using data harmonics that courtesy of Dr Farid, it has 3246 data
points of the harmonics and has been analysed this data.
After done all the analysis, harmonic spectrum is obtained as in the
result. This experiment can be conclude that the harmonics disorder
are proven by analyse data harmonics that we get
