Implementation of adaline on dsp and fpga for measurement of harmonics

Abstract

Electrical power systems suffer in quality due to poor Power Factor newlinePF harmonics voltage swells voltage sags interruptions flicker and newlinetransients Harmonics in current are caused by nonlinear loads such as newlinerectifiers Switched Mode Power Supplies SMPS Uninterruptible Power newlineSupplies UPS Variable Frequency Drives VFD etc Harmonics produce newlinemany ill effects such as high current and overheating in neutral conductor in newline3 phase 4 wire systems increase in neutral to ground voltage overloading of newlinetransformers failure of PF correction capacitors malfunctioning of protective newlinerelays etc newline newline
