Power quality is an estimate of how stable the electrical system is, often this is described as “power quality health.” One of the parameters which have a deeply effect is power system Harmonics; Harmonics is measured on three- phase electrical systems using instrumentation that considers several variables for current and voltage. Troubleshooting power system harmonics issues will help your facility save money by optimizing energy use and protect equipment from future damage. The first step to evaluating power system harmonics is to capture data from equipment, infrastructure, and the service panel. The trainee will able to know Power system harmonics determines the fitness of electrical power to consumer devices. Synchronization of the voltage frequency and phase allows electrical systems to function in their intended manner without significant loss of performance. Without the proper power, an electrical device (or load) may malfunction, fail prematurely or not operate at all. By the end of the course the participants will be able to:

• Understand the significance and detrimental effects of
• Identify the origin of
• Understand the difference between current and voltage
• Estimate the THD in the
• Propose and analyze harmonic mitigation
