Abstract

This paper presents a summary of the most important issues with respect to harmonics and resonances within wind power plants. An introduction is given to provide an overview of the various power quality related issues encountered when designing, commissioning, or operating a wind power plant, as well as typical characteristics of the components associated with wind power plants. The many variables, which influence harmonics and resonance in wind power plants, will be described with respect to analysis methods, avoidance, mitigation, and compliance with IEEE Std 519-1992 recommended practices.
