Abstract

The excessive use of power electronics makes power quality problems in power grids increasingly prominent. The estimation of the harmonic parameters of harmonic sources in the power grid and the division of harmonic responsibilities are of great significance for the evaluation of power quality. At present, methods for estimating harmonic parameters and harmonic responsibilities need to provide the amplitude and phase information of the current and voltage of the point of common coupling (PCC). However, in practical engineering applications, the general power quality monitor only provides the amplitude information of the voltage and current of the measured point and the phase difference information between them. Missing phase information invalidates existing methods. Based on the partial least squares regression method, the present work proposes a method for estimating harmonic parameters in the case of monitoring data without phase. This method only needs to measure the amplitude information of the harmonic voltage and current of the PCC and the phase difference between them, then use the measurable data to estimate the harmonic parameters and the harmonic responsibility of each harmonic source. It provides a new way to effectively solve the problem that the measured data of the project has no phase information. The feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed method are proved by simulation data and measured engineering data.

Summary

Introduction

With the development of electronic technology, power electronic equipment is widely used. Power electronic equipment has non-linear and fast switching characteristics. This non-linear time-varying load is extremely prone to generate harmonics. Power quality problems caused by harmonics have received extensive attention [1]. The prerequisite for evaluating and improving power quality is to evaluate the harmonic emission levels of each user reasonably. In order to evaluate the harmonic emission levels of each user correctly, it is necessary to divide the harmonic responsibility. Determining the Harmonic Impacts of Multiple Harmonic-Producing Loads
