• Capacitors and Harmonics: Capacitors always amplify harmonics in power systems, which necessitates careful consideration and management of harmonic currents to prevent damage. • Harmonic Filters: Using harmonic filters in lieu of straight capacitors is a great solution to control and reduce the amplification of harmonic currents caused by capacitors in power systems. • Resonant Points and Damage: Resonant points created by capacitors create risk and can amplify harmonic currents, potentially leading to significant damage to the power system. • Preventive Measures: You should be vigilant about resonant points when using any power electronics or converters and capacitors in power systems to avoid issues with harmonic current flow. Eaton’s Harmonic Frequently Asked Question’s FAQs collection of videos hosted by Dan Carnovale can help individuals from all different levels of education understand what harmonics are and explain many different solutions for mitigating harmonics on an electrical power system. Dan Carnovale P.E. has decades of experience in power quality and harmonics and is a recognized electrical industry expert in power quality and power systems. He is the creator and director of Eaton’s Power Systems Experience Centers (PSEC) in Pittsburgh PA and Houston TX. The PSECs provide visitors live demonstrations of hands-on power quality and harmonic situations and solutions can be seen first-hand in the Power Quality Lab.
