Answer / d.h.waiker
Harmonics are generated in electrical A.c systems due to
non-linear loads. There are even harmonics multiples 2,4.6
etc and odd harmonics multiples of 3,5,7 etc. There are
current Harmonics as well as voltage Harmonics .These
Harmonics will cause un necessary heating in th electrical
equipments resulting the to fail prematurly.Bad effects of
Harmonics are mitigated by harmonic filters ( Active or
paasive filters ). Active filters generates Harmonics of
oppsite polarity to system Harmonis to nullify the effects
where paasive filters give low impednace path for for
Harmonics. ( Filter is nothing but combinatoion of
capacitor and inductor to create least rsistive path for
Harmonics )

Answer / prosenjit majumder
It is the multiple of fundamental frequency . If
fundamental frequency is 50Hz then its harmonics are
100Hz , 150Hz , 200Hz .... and so on . It generates due to
improper switching action .

Answer / ej ram
except fundamental ie primary frequency other frequency
signals ie odd frequecy signals are called harmonics. they
disturbance the Grid and equipments.

Deviation of an ac signal from pure sinoside causes the
harmonics to exist.They are generated both because of non
linear loads; and generators because of the nonuniform
srator windings and magnetic fields in practical case.
When a sonosidal voltage is applied to a linear load,a
proportional current is also drawn with it.But when it is
applied to a non linear load,it causes the current to vary
disproportionately with the voltage due to which
nonsinosidal waveforms are created containg
distortions,whereby 50/60 hertz frequency contains numerous
waveforms superimposed upon it which are the multiple
frequencies of the normal 50/60 hz sine wave.

Answer / felixraj
it is the integral multiples of fundamental frequency.
it is due to non-linear load.
by using filters .
| Is This Answer Correct ? | 13 Yes | 5 No |
Harmonics are integral multiples of some fundamental
frequency ,if the fundamental frequency is f, the harmonics
have frequencies 2f, 3f, 4f, . . . etc., when added
together, result in a distorted waveform, It generates due
to improper switching action, they disturbance the Grid and
equipments.
filters generates Harmonics of opposite polarity to system
Harmonics to nullify the effects,We use filters to get a
stable system.

Answer / gopal
un wanted damping frequencies , by switching action by using
filterers
| Is This Answer Correct ? | 4 Yes | 5 No |
Answer / p.aruna devi
Unwanted signal is known as harmonics .it generate due to
double the frequency.

how to test an MCB
This is reqd for a 1MW Solar power plant..We have 2DC outputs from the solar panels Connected to 2INVERTOR panels.. Output from invertor is 3ph,280v,500kva,50hz.These are connected to individual ACB.This has to be stepped up to 11KV ,1250KVA SYSTEM.Now can I use (1) one more ACBTO GIVE A COMBINED OUTPUT OF 1000KVA,280V & STEP UP THE OUTPUT BY USING a single two winding 3 ph transformer 11kv/1250kva. or (2)use the two outputs and connect to one three winding transformer of above rating..Pls suggestwith details.
Can the output voltage of a rectifier be greater than the input AC voltage without the use of any voltage multiplier in the circuit??please provide the explanation too..
The synchronous speed of a motor with 6 poles and operating at 50 Hz frequency is ___.
power 148kw i need exat cable size in 148 kw in 3phase what size of cable can i used.
3 phase supply is there Total kw 100 howmuch cable put the load
