Chapter 1 - Introduction
General
This guide continues ABB's technical guide series, describing harmonic distortion, its sources and effects, and also distortion calculation and evaluation. Special attention has been given to the methods for reducing harmonics with AC drives.
Mains Transformer

The line current of a 3-phase, 6-pulse rectifier can be calculated from the direct output current by using the following formula.
, where the total RMS current and direct current output from the rectifier. (valid for ideal filtered DC current)
In a theoretical case where output current can be estimated as clean DC current, the harmonic current frequencies of a 6-pulse three phase rectifier are n times the fundamental frequency (50 or 60 Hz). The information given below is valid in the case when the line inductance is insignificant compared to the DC reactor inductance. The line current is then rectangular with 120 blocks. The order numbers n are calculated from the formula below:

The most common international and national standards setting limits on harmonics are described below. Figure 5.1 is shown as an example for harmonic distortion limits.
Part 3: EMC product standard including specific test methods The countries of the European Economic Area (EEA) have agreed on common minimum regulatory requirements in order to ensure the free movement of products within the EEA. The CE marking indicates that the product works in conformity with the directives that are valid for the product. The directives state the principles that must be followed. Standards specify the requirements that must be met. EN61800-3 is the EMC product standard of adjustable speed electrical power drive systems (PDS). Meeting the requirements of this standard, is the minimum condition for free trade of power electronics converters inside the EEA. EN61800-3 states, that the manufacturer shall provide in the documentation of the PDS, or on request, the current harmonic level, under rated conditions, as a percentage of the rated fundamental current on the power port. The referenced values shall be calculated for each order at least up to the 25th. The current THD (orders up to and including 40), and its high-frequency component PHD (orders from 14 to 40 inclusive) shall be evaluated. For these standard calculations, the PDS shall be assumed to be connected to a PC with Rsc = 250 and with initial voltage distortion less than 1%. The internal impedance of the network shall be assumed to be a pure reactance. In a low voltage public supply network, the limits and requirements of IEC1000-3-2 apply for equipment with rated current 16 A. The use of the future IEC1000-3-4 is recommended for equipment with rated current > 16 A. If PDS is used in an industrial installation, a reasonable economical approach, which considers the total installation, shall be used. This approach is based on the agreed power, which the supply can deliver at any time. The method for calculating the harmonics of the total installation is agreed and the limits for either the voltage distortion or the total harmonic current emission are agreed on. The compatibility limits given in IEC1000-2-4 may be used as the limits of voltage distortion.
12
Part 2: Environment - Section 2: Compatibility levels for low frequency conducted disturbances and signalling in public low-voltage power supply systems This standard sets the compatibility limits for low-frequency conducted disturbances and signalling in public low-voltage power supply systems. The disturbance phenomena include harmonics, inter-harmonics, voltage fluctuations, voltage dips and short interruptions voltage inbalance and so on. Basically this standard sets the design criteria for the equipment manufacturer, and amounts to the minimum immunity requirements of the equipment. IEC1000-2-2 is in line with the limits set in EN50160 for the quality of the voltage the utility owner must provide at the customer's supply-terminals. Part 2: Environment - Section 4: Compatibility levels in industrial plants for low frequency conducted disturbances IEC1000-2-4 is similar to IEC1000-2-2, but it gives compatibility levels for industrial and non-public networks. It covers low-voltage networks as well as medium voltage supplies excluding the networks for ships, aircraft, offshore platforms and railways. Part 3: Limits - Section 2: Limits for harmonic current emissions (equipment current <16 A per phase This standard deals with the harmonic current emission limits of individual equipment connected to public networks. The date of implementation of this standard is January 1st 2001, but there is extensive work going on at the moment to revise the standard before this date. The two main reasons for the revision are the need for the standard to cover also the voltage below 230 V and the difficulties and contradictions in applying the categorisation of the equipment given in the standard. This standard has been published as a Type II Technical report. Work is going on to convert it into a standard. It gives the harmonic current emission limits for individual equipment having a rated current of more than 16 A up to 75 A. It applies to public networks having nominal voltages from 230 V single phase to 600 V three phase.
13
The standard gives three different stages for connection procedures of the equipment. Meeting the individual harmonic limits of Stage 1 allows the connection of the equipment at any point in the supply system. Stage 2 gives individual harmonic current limits as well as THD and its weighted high frequency counterpart PWHD. The limits are classified and tabulated by the short circuit ratio. The third stage of connection is based on an agreement between the user and the supply authority, based on the agreed active power of the consumer's installation. If the rated current is above 75 A, Stage 3 applies in any case. The structure of this standard is generally seen to be good, but it may justly be questioned whether single and threephase equipment should have different limits in Stage 2. It is very probable that the structure of the standard will remain as it is, but the version having the status of actual standard, will contain different limits for single and threephase equipment.

5.6 IEEE519, IEEE Recommended practices and requirements for harmonic control in electrical power systems
The philosophy of developing harmonic limits in this recommended practice is to limit the harmonic injection from individual customers so that they will not cause unacceptable voltage distortion levels for normal system characteristics and to limit overall harmonic distortion of the system voltage supplied by the utility. This standard is also recognised as American National Standard and it is widely used in the USA, especially in the municipal public works market.
14
The standard does not give limits for individual equipment, but for individual customers. The customers are categorised by the ratio of available short circuit current (Isc) to their maximum demand load current (IL) at the point of common coupling. The total demand load current is the sum of both linear and non-linear loads. Within an industrial plant, the PCC is clearly defined as the point between the non-linear load and other loads. The allowed individual harmonic currents and total harmonic distortion are tabulated by the ratio of available short circuit current to the total demand load current (Isc/ IL) at the point of common coupling. The limits are as a percentage of IL for all odd and even harmonics from 2 to infinity. Total harmonic distortion is called total demand distortion and also it should be calculated up to infinity. Many authors limit the calculation of both the individual components and TDD to 50. The table 10.3 of the standard is sometimes misinterpreted to give limits for the harmonic emissions of a single apparatus by using Rsc of the equipment instead of Isc/IL of the whole installation. The limits of the table should not be used this way, since the ratio of the short circuit current to the total demand load current of an installation should always be used.

The connections for different rectifier solutions are shown in Figure 7.2. The most common rectifier circuit in 3-phase AC drives is a 6-pulse diode bridge. It consists of six uncontrollable rectifiers or diodes and an inductor, which together with a DC-capacitor forms a low-pass filter for smoothing the DC-current. The inductor can be on the DCor AC-side or it can be left totally out. The 6-pulse rectifier is simple and cheap but it generates a high amount of low order harmonics 5th, 7th, 11th especially with small smoothing inductance. The current form is shown in Figure 7.2. If the major part of the load consists of converters with a 6-pulse rectifier, the supply transformer needs to be oversized and meeting the requirements in standards may be difficult. Often some harmonics filtering is needed.

The 12-pulse rectifier is formed by connecting two 6-pulse rectifiers in parallel to feed a common DC-bus. The input to the rectifiers is provided with one three-winding transformer. The transformer secondaries are in 30 o phase shift. The benefit with this arrangement is that in the supply side some of the harmonics are in opposite phase and thus eliminated. In theory the harmonic component with the lowest frequency seen at the primary of the transformer is the 11th. The major drawbacks are special transformers and a higher cost than with the 6-pulse rectifier. The principle of the 24-pulse rectifier is also shown in Figure 7.2. It has two 12-pulse rectifiers in parallel with two three- winding transformers having 15 o phase shift. The benefit is that practically all low frequency harmonics are eliminated but the drawback is the high cost. In the case of a high power single drive or large multidrive installation a 24-pulse system may be the most economical solution with lowest harmonic distortion.

Harmonic order
A phase controlled rectifier is accomplished by replacing the diodes in a 6-pulse rectifier with thyristors. Since a thyristor needs a triggering pulse for transition from nonconducting to conducting state, the phase angle at which the thyristor starts to conduct can be delayed. By delaying the firing angle over 90 o, the DC-bus voltage goes negative. This allows regenerative flow of power from the DC-bus back to the power supply.
19
Standard DC-bus and inverter configurations do not allow polarity change of the DC-voltage and it is more common to connect another thyristor bridge anti-parallel with the first one to allow the current polarity reversal. In this configuration the first bridge conducts in rectifying mode and the other in regenerating mode. The current waveforms of phase controlled rectifiers are similar to those of the 6-pulse diode rectifier, but since they draw power with an alternating displacement power factor, the total power factor with partial load is quite poor. The poor power factor causes high apparent current and the absolute harmonic currents are higher than those with a diode rectifier. In addition to these problems, phase-controlled converters cause commutation notches in the utility voltage waveform. The angular position of the notches varies along with the firing angle.

Distortion is in % of RMS values Figure 7.4 Distortion of different supply unit types. Values may vary case by case.
Introducing a rectifier bridge, made of self commutated components, brings several benefits and opportunities compared to phase commutated ones. Like a phase commutated rectifier, this hardware allows both rectification and regeneration, but it makes it possible to control the DCvoltage level and displacement power factor separately regardless of the power flow direction. The main benefits are: - Safe function in case of mains supply disappearance. - High dynamics of the drive control even in the field weakening range.
20
- Possibility to generate reactive power. - Nearly sinusoidal supply current with low harmonic content. Measured results for one drive is shown in Figure 7.5. When comparing with Figure 7.3 we can see a clear difference. IGBT has very low harmonics at lower frequencies, but somewhat higher at higher frequencies. - Voltage boost capability. In case of low supply voltage the DC voltage can be boosted to keep motor voltage higher than supply voltage. The main drawback is the high cost coming from the IGBT bridge and extra filtering needed.
In I1
Harmonic order
The harmonics of a voltage source AC drive can be significantly reduced by connecting a large enough inductor in its AC input or DC bus. The trend has been to reduce the size of converter while the inductor size has been also reduced, or in several cases it has been omitted totally. The effect of this can be seen from the curve forms in Figure 7.6.
Current without Inductor Current with Inductor
21
The chart in Figure 7.7 shows the effect of the size of the DC inductor on the harmonics. For the first 25 harmonic components the theoretical THD minimum is 29%. That value is practically reached when the inductance is 100 mH divided by the motor kW or 1 mH for a 100 kW motor (415 V, 50 Hz). Practically sensible is about 25 mH divided by motor kW, which gives a THD of about 45%. This is 0,25 mH for a 100 kW motor.
415 V, 50 Hz
The voltage distortion with certain current distortion depends on the Short Circuit Ratio Rsc of the supply. The higher the ratio, the lower the voltage distortion. This can be seen in Figure 7.8.

The principle of a tuned arm passive filter is shown in Figure 8.1. A tuned arm passive filter should be applied at the single lowest harmonic component where there is significant harmonic generation in the system. For systems that mostly supply an industrial load this would probably be the fifth harmonic. Above the tuned frequency the harmonics are absorbed but below that frequency they may be amplified.
Detuned - Single tuning frequency Above tuned frequency harmonics absorbed Below tuned frequency harmonics may be amplified Harmonic reduction limited by possible over compensation at the supply frequency and network itself Figure 8.1 Tuned single arm passive filter.
This kind of filter consists of an inductor in series with a capacitor bank and the best location for the passive filter is close to the harmonic generating loads. This solution is not normally used for new installations.
The principle of this filter is shown in Figure 8.2. This filter has several arms tuned to two or more of the harmonic components which should be the lowest significant harmonic frequencies in the system. The multiple filter has better harmonic absorption than the one arm system.
Capacitive below tuned frequency/Inductive above Better harmonic absorption Design consideration to amplification harmonics by filter Limited by KVAr and network Figure 8.2 Tuned multiple arm passive filter. 24 Technical Guide No.6 - Guide to Harmonics with AC Drives
The multiple arm passive filters are often used for large DC drive installations where a dedicated transformer is supplying the whole installation.
A passive tuned filter introduces new resonances that can cause additional harmonic problems. New power electronics technologies are resulting in products that can control harmonic distortion with active control. These active filters, see Figure 8.3, provide compensation for harmonic components on the utility system based on existing harmonic generation at any given moment in time.
Fundamental only Supply idistortion Load icompensation Active Filter
The active filter compensates the harmonics generated by nonlinear loads by generating the same harmonic components in opposite phase as shown in Figure 8.4. External active filters are most suited to multiple small drives. They are relatively expensive compared to other methods.
