  • Abstract
    This paper investigates the inclusion of attenuation and diversity effects in harmonic distortion assessment for systems with distributed harmonic sources. The concept of device characteristic curves is introduced to represent the effects. An iterative method is proposed to include the effects in system wide harmonic assessment. The method is illustrated using a system with distributed personal computer loads. Test results have confirmed the effectiveness of the proposed method.
