Harmonic measurement software development / Abd. Basir Mukri

Modern technology has made possible the rectification of AC power to DC power using static rectifier for DC drivers as well as static inversion for AC drivers. Although more versatile than past methods, these newer technologies may have detrimental effects on the quality of the AC system, especially when they comprise a significant portion of the system. Rectification generates harmonie voltages and currents which can cause problem, e.g, insulation failures due to overheating and overvoltages, malfunction of solid-state equipment and communication. The main objective of this project is to measure and monitor in PC. However, the through analysis of power quality will not be covered in this project but they will be perform in a different project by another student member. The harmonie related project is proposed in view of the frequent power supply disturbance occurring at the school of Engineering, ITM, This project classified under the category of measurement using software development.
