Harmonic / IEEE-519 Evaluation

We will identify, monitor and measure harmonics generated by non-linear equipment. The study will determine if your facility exceeds the IEEE 519 Limits. We will determine harmonic mitigation techniques to reduce the harmonics. Examples of these are phase shifting, zig-zag transformers, and filter installation.

A Harmonic study will:

  • Identify the source of harmonics (internal or external to your facility)

  • Evaluate the impact of non-linear loads (harmonic sources) on facility distribution systems

  • Evaluate compliance with IEEE 519

  • Verify proper size and placement of capacitors when harmonic sources are present

  • Verify proper size, configuration and placement of filters, if necessary
