Phipps, James K. ; Nelson, John P.
Abstract :
A practical design aspect for controlling power system harmonics through the use of transformer connections applied to a distributed set of 6-pulse converter-type loads in industrial power distribution systems is presented. Some common system problems associated with harmonic distortion from 6-pulse-type converters are presented. A method for reducing harmonic distortion through the use of transformer bank connections to allow for harmonic cancellation is discussed
