Voltage Unbalance Emission Assessment In Radial Power Systems, U Jayatunga, S Perera, P Ciufo Nov 2012

Voltage Unbalance Emission Assessment In Radial Power Systems, U Jayatunga, S Perera, P Ciufo

Associate Professor Sarath Perera

Voltage unbalance (VU) emission assessment is an integral part in the VU-management process where loads are allocated a portion of the unbalance absorption capacity of the power system. The International Electrotechnical Commission Report IEC/TR 61000-3-13:2008 prescribes a VU emission allocation methodology establishing the fact that the VU can arise at the point of common connection (PCC) due to upstream network unbalance and load unbalance. Although this is the case for emission allocation, approaches for post connection emission assessment do not exist except for cases where the load is the only contributor to the VU at the PCC. Such assessment methods …

Conditions For The Assessment Of The Harmonic Compliance Of An Installation, Timothy J. Browne, Sarath Perera, Victor J. Gosbell Nov 2012

Conditions For The Assessment Of The Harmonic Compliance Of An Installation, Timothy J. Browne, Sarath Perera, Victor J. Gosbell

Associate Professor Sarath Perera

Methods of allocating harmonic emission limits to customer installations have evolved considerably, as evidenced by the development of harmonic guides such as IEEE-519 and IEC/TR 61000-3-6. However, there is only limited consensus on appropriate techniques validating compliance of installations with those limits. Existing techniques are reviewed and related problems are examined. Conditions which acceptable tests of compliance should meet are proposed.
