Abstract :
This paper presents harmonic pollution in offices and university building installation power systems. Most electronic equipment produces harmonics. This pollution is produced not only by offices but also by measurement equipment and electronic drives used in university laboratories. In transient states, the supply voltage is very deformed and the unpredictable zero crossing voltage is variable
