The understanding of harmonics propagation in power systems recently gained interest. In HV networks, the current trend of undergrounding is modifying the network resonance frequencies. In LV distribution systems, the increasing deployment of decentralized generation induces new harmonic pollution, which could interfere with power line communications (PLC). In this analysis, the most important elements of power systems (overhead lines, underground cables, power transformers, linear loads and inverters) are modelled in frequency and integrated into Frequency scan and Resonance Mode Analysis methods. Two network types are analysed to point out the specificities of each network level: the first one is an EHV/HV network (380 kV, 220 kV, 125 kV and 50 kV) and the second one is a part of a MV/LV distribution system (20 kV and 400 V). With this method the network behaviour in a large frequency bandwidth (up to 5 kHz for transport grids and up to 200 kHz for the distribution system) can be predicted. Recent network impedance measurements contribute to the validation of this method by showing the same trends and resonance frequencies close to the ones visible in the simulation results.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
