Full Description

Scope

Provide guidelines for the application and specification of passive shunt harmonic fileters for use on 50 and 60 Hz power systems at 216 volts and above.

Purpose

No specific standard exists for harmonic filters, although standards do exist for virtually all of the components that are used in a filter. The objective of this document is to define the application and specification criteria which should be considered in designing, controlling and protecting a harmonic filter. Existing standards will be referenced, and additional considerations will be presented as is appropriate. This document would not address harmonic simulations and modeling. It will focus on the equipment.

Abstract

Revision Standard - Active - Draft.This document provides guidelines 1 for the specification of components, protection, and control of harmonic filters. This guide applies to the use of 50 Hz and 60 Hz passive shunt power harmonic filters on low-voltage, medium voltage and high-voltage electric power systems. This document is the first guide specifically created for harmonic filters, although standards do presently exist for most of the components that are used in a filter. Applications including industrial low-voltage facilities, utility medium-voltage systems, and arc furnace installations are covered.
