What is harmonics in AC waves. How it is generated? How it
will effect the system network? how can eliminate it?
Answer Posted / iamdon
The integral multiple frequency components superimposed on
fundamental components is called harmonics.
It is generated due to switching action,power electronics
devies(static compensator,rectifiers) used in power
system,Arc furnace etc...
Due to harmonics
1)Resonance occur between inductive and capacitive parts of
circuit.It is dangerous.
2)Harmonics cause the interference with neighbouring
telecommmunication circuit and computer traffic.
3)Incresed loss in machines=>temp rise=>insulation failure.
Use of filter can solve the harmonics to some extent.

I want to put this query to SENIOR & EXPERIENCED ELECTRICAL ENGINEERS. 1)I want to know about the control circuit diagrams for control panels. I found it difficult to understand. Is there ant booklet through which we can learn the circuit diagrams? 2)I want to learn about conduiting, laying cables, preparing cable schedules and various techniques which is the part of building infrastucture(construction field). I don't have any experience in this area. I have experience in control panels only. that's why i am not getting any opening in building infrastucture (construction field).Can I get the job in this field as Trainee Engineer? How to enter this field? I need job in PUNE
