Abstract

The article is given the evaluation obtained of an industrial network with the presence of harmonic contamination, where the non lineal loads correspond fundamentally to rectifiers and variators of speed. Where the typical harmonic generated by these loads settled down and allowed it to determine the levels of harmonic distortion of tension and current to analyze their influence in the selection of the bank of condensers during the compensation of the power it reactivates assisting to the behavior of the
system before different load states.
