Introduction
One difficulty in calculating harmonic voltages and
currents throughout a transmission system is the need for an
adequate equivalent to represent the distribution system and
consumers' loads fed radially from each busbar.
It has become evident that the use of equivalents
without a comprehensive check on the effect of all
impedances actually present can lead to inaccurate estimation
of harmonic voltages and currents in the transmission system.
On the other hand, it is not practicable to obtain and
represent all the system details.
A detailed analysis of distribution systems, loads
and other system elements is carried out, models discussed
and a simple but more realistic approach adopted. It consists
basically of representing the dominant characteristics of the
network using alternative configurations and models. Also
simpler equivalents for extended networks are suggested.
General Considerations
Although further considerations leading to simpler
equivalents are given later, the basic assumptions used in this
paper are as follows:
(1)
Distribution lines and cables (say, 69-33kV, for
example) should be represented by an equivalent pi.
For short lines, estimate the total capacitance at
each voltage level and connect it at the termination
buses.
(2)
Transformers between distribution voltage level
should be represented by an equivalent element.
(3)
As the active power absorbed by rotating machines
does not correspond to a damping value, the active
and reactive power demand at the fundamental
frequency may not be used straightforwardly.
Alternative models for load representation should
be used according to their composition and
characteristics.
(4)
Power factor correction (PFC) capacitance should
be estimated as accurately as possible and allocated
at the corresponding voltage level.
(5)
Other elements, such as, transmission line
inductors, filters and generators should be
represented according to their actual configuration
and composition.
(6)
The representation should be more detailed nearer
the points of interest. Simpler equivalents, either

Experience has shown that
capacitances start to have some effect at 10KHz, i.e. well
above the common harmonic frequencies present in power
systems, i.e. 2hkz. Transformer impedance is shown to be
proportional to the leakage reactance an linear with
frequency. Various impedance representations have been
suggested.

The resistance R1 is estimated from the actual

induction motor and electronic load part. The skin effect
can be incorporated in the equivalent resistance by choosing
an appropriate factor as indicated. The inductance of the
induction motors should be evaluated using an estimation of
the fraction of the total load that represents induction motors
and their installed unitary power (not the demand). Also a
factor K1 representing the severity of the starting condition
should be used to calculate the equivalent inductance. R2
represents the damping component of the equivalent
induction motor impedance. Also background distortion
3.7 Conclusions
This document demonstrates that the representation
of the power system loads and extended networks can be
improved by using alternative models. The distribution
system, loads, other elements and equivalents of extended
networks have been considered in detail. The models
developed allow a more realistic representation of the system
and, consequently, a more accurate assessment of the
harmonic currents and voltages throughout the transmission
network. Guidance has been provided on modeling of
individual loads and on typical load composition. System
tests are necessary to provide verification of the modeling
methodology developed, as well as adding to the knowledge
of system load characteristics.
This paper demonstrates that the representation of
linear elements is very important for harmonic studies and
should not be neglected or represented without full
consideration of the load characteristics and composition.
Guidance has been provided on modeling of individual loads
and on typical load composition. System tests are necessary
to provide verification of the modeling methodology
developed, as well as adding to the knowledge of system load
characteristics.
And don't be fooled: utilization of sophisticated
harmonic penetration programs with inaccurate basic
information, and or inadequate modeling is a waste of
money, and the consequences of the interpretation of the
results might cost even more. Never forget that the accuracy
of any calculation cannot be better than the data on which it
is based.
