Abstract :
THE PRINCIPAL SOURCES of system harmonics have been rotating machines and transformers. More recently, the widespread application of apparatus taking nonsinusoidal current, particularly mercury-arc rectifiers, has introduced other sources of system harmonics. These harmonics often require consideration when rectifiers and capacitors are connected to the same system.
