Abstract: | This paper focuses on the selection of ratings for capacitors and air-core reactors used in multiple single-tuned harmonic filter configurations. Digital transient simulations of an example power system demonstrate the exceptionally high voltage and current stresses placed upon filter components in these configurations. Design guidelines for increasing the component ratings to account for the extra stresses are described. A comparison between traditional rating methods and the proposed methods are presented for the example system |
