Influence of Non-Sinusoidality of Voltage on Electricity Loss in Distribution Networks

The problem of electromagnetic compatibility in high-voltage distribution networks is considered, connected with the consumption of reactive power at the fundamental frequency and distortion of the current form in the feeding networks. The estimated indices of the calculation of power losses for non-sinusoidal supply voltage in the high-voltage distribution network for the PNS pump with a capacity of 50 MW are given. Methods for reducing the voltage non-sinusoidality. (paper)
