Harmonic Filter Banks

In power systems, harmonic filter banks are used to mitigate harmonics in electrical networks. These harmonics are unwanted frequencies (typically multiples of the fundamental frequency, like 50 Hz or 60 Hz) caused by non-linear loads such as:

  • Variable frequency drives (VFDs)

  • Rectifiers

  • Inverters

  • UPS systems

  • Arc furnaces

These harmonics can degrade power quality, overheat equipment,etc
