CODAM PLUS: Harmonics
Harmonics are
components of the
mains voltage. Their
frequency is an integer
multiple of the mains
frequency.

Harmonics of the 3 phases are scaled to their limits.

MEMOBOX 808 - Application:
Operation of a crane caused Flicker

Complaints about
flicker in an office
building!
Light intensity
fluctuations,
PC crashes!
Data losses, ….

Measurement location
02.1999 EN50160E LEM INSTRUMENTS 17
Initial Situation
 Complaints about flicker effects
(light fluctuations) in an office building.

Goal of the measurement:

 Find the source of the flicker and recommend


remedial action !

02.1999 EN50160E LEM INSTRUMENTS 18


Measurement over several days:
The Flicker
exceeds the
limits on all
phases !

Many events
appeared !

Voltage
variations
however are in
the allowed
area of +/-10% !

02.1999 EN50160E LEM INSTRUMENTS 19


10-minute r.m.s. values:

Voltage variations are always within +/-10%, but the voltage is unstable!
02.1999 EN50160E LEM INSTRUMENTS 20
Events in UNIPEDE DISDIP Table
Many short voltage dips were captured.
The dips were produced from the switching events of the crane.

02.1999 EN50160E LEM INSTRUMENTS 21


Flicker Pst during 1 week

The flicker Pst exceeds the limit from Monday to Friday.


These very high flicker values produce remarkable light
fluctuations, voltage variations.

02.1999 EN50160E LEM INSTRUMENTS 22


Flicker Pst during 1 day

The flicker exists


only during the
operation time of
the crane.

02.1999 EN50160E LEM INSTRUMENTS 23


Coffee break of the crane operator:

02.1999 EN50160E LEM INSTRUMENTS 24


Conclusion:

The crane must


be supplied by a
separate power
line directly from
the transformer
station!

The power supply for the crane was reinstalled accordingly. Subsequent power
quality measurements tuned out that the Flicker was reduced significantly by this
measure.
02.1999 There were no further complaints
EN50160E from the office building.
