Abstract :
A three-phase equivalent circuit model is developed to model adjustable speed drives (ASD) for power system harmonic analysis. The validity and accuracy of the model were verified by comparing simulation results with lab test results. Sensitivity studies are then conducted to determine the key factors affecting the harmonic characteristics of ASDs. Guidelines on modelling ASDs for harmonic distortion assessment are developed based on the results
