Impacts of modern residential loads on power grids

Abstract

Modern residential loads use variable frequency drive motors and solid state electronics to improve operational efficiency and reduce energy consumption. The drawback of such energy efficient loads is the introduction of harmonics onto the local distribution grid. Elevated harmonic content due to the increased use of such devices can potentially impact residential distribution networks and adjacent customers. This paper quantifies the current …
