This paper describes an influence of system voltage harmonics on arrester deterioration diagnostic techniques based on leakage current measurement because the resistive current is composed of two components caused by nonlinear characteristics of arrester and by system voltage harmonics. Resistive leakage currents of arresters, which can be evaluated by the third harmonic component of total leakage currents, increase with its deterioration progress. In this paper, we developed a PSpice model for ZnO arrester to simulate the harmonics' effect described above. In simulation, pure sinusoidal voltage and the $3^{rd}$ harmonic voltage are applied to the model, and the leakage current changes are compared. The simulation results showed that the magnitudes of resistive leakage current depend not only on the phase of system voltage harmonics but also on the magnitude of it.

This paper proposes a new model for harmonic analysis in 2${\times}$25㎸ traction power supply system including inverted feeder, contact line, rails and auto-transformer. The system model is based on four-port representation which is an extension of two-port network theory. In order to verify the proposed approach, we have analysed and tested real traction power feeding system focused on the amplification of harmonic current. The calculation results front tile proposed approach and the measurement data from the test are widely described in the paper.

Because of falling-off in power quality by harmonics, obstacles like lowering of capability, noise, vibration of power facilities and so on are occurred. Also generation of harmonics is inevitable and the point at harmonics is seriously gathering strength because energy saving installation using semiconductor circuit as countermeasures to enhance energy efficiency will be broadly spread and the use of energy conversion equipment like motor speed control contrivance, energy keeping installation and so on will increase, in the future. In order to eliminate harmonics obstacle, precision measurement and analysis on voltage, current, power factor, the each ingredient of harmonic order, the percentage of total harmonic distortion, and so forth are needed. In this paper, we developed low-cost measurement system to measure and analyze power quality connected with harmonics and verified it's performance by measuring and analyzing power quality in the three-phase and four-wire system.

In Integrated Tube Components(ITC) process in themanufacturing of color display tube, we describe the necessity of the convergence measurement method using photo sensors. Compared with methods using 1D or 2D cameras, its characteristics is to use of moving image patterns and fixed sensors. This measurement method is formulated as the measurement problem of the phase difference in phase changing periodic signals. The convergence measurement system using photo sensors, for the good performance, must have a small standard deviation for the repetitive measurement in the same condition and a fast measurement time for thecovergence change. By above two conditions, we proposed the real time measurement algorithm of the pahse difference using fundametal and harmonic in phase changing periodic signals. And, the proposed algorithm is applied to the convergence measurement system.

An increasing of non-linear loads such as power electronic equipment in distribution systems is the reason for the greater concern about harmonics in recent time. A harmonic current and voltage in distribution systems can cause many problems such as malfunction of protective equipment. In this paper, Total Harmonic Distortion(THD) of voltage according to magnitudes and measurement locations of the non-linear loads was calculated and analyzed with Electro-Magnetic Transients Program(EMTP).

Recently, harmonic problem affect a great effect on power system. Especially, Incheon International Airport is a very important place in view of safety and reliability of power. In this paper we measure the harmonics at incheon international airport, especially passenger terminal. With the results we analysis the results and propose the guideline of harmonic reduction method. To do this we compare various kinds of specification for harmonic restrictions.

This paper presents the model for an AC electric railway system using the PSCAD/EMTDC program. It is composed of a scott-transformer, an auto-transformer, catenary and electric trains, etc. After obtaining the models of the fundamental elements describing the AC electric railway system and its behavior, we have analyzed and tested an actual AC electric railway system focused on the amplification of harmonic current to verify the proposed model. The simulation results from the proposed approach and the measurement data from the test are described.

To predict the background level of harmonics produced by household appliances, information on the site, capacity, and usage pattern of these loads arenecessary. However, as household appliances are distributed widely and various in type, it is difficult to know these kinds of information accurately. This paper presents a method for estimation of background level of harmonics produced by distributed harmonic sources with readily available data. Large industrial customers are excluded from this study. In this paper, customers are grouped into three classes, i.e. residential, commercial, and industrial. Typical customers for each class are assumed and characteristics of their equipments are modeled. As the proposed method does not require harmonic measurement, it can be employed to forecast voltage total harmonic distribution (VTHD) in the future. An illustrative example is described.

Heavy chemical industries have nonlinear loads including elecrolyzers. AC-DC converters are the most widely used in an elecrolysis in a chemical plant. The electrolysis consists of AC-DC converter groups connected in parallel at the DC side. The converter operations cause harmonic currents and create distortions on the sinusoidal voltage of the AC power system. This paper provides an in depth analysis on harmonics field measurement for the electrolyzer loads and harmonics assessment by the international harmonic standards IEC 61000-3-6 and IEEE 519-1992.
