TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present three harmonic simulation test systems for the preparation and analysis of harmonic problems through case studies and simulation examples, which can be used as benchmark for the development of new harmonic simulation methods and for the evaluation of existing harmonic analysis software.

TL;DR: In this paper, the most remarkable issues related to interharmonic theory and modeling are presented, starting from the basic definitions and concepts, attention is first devoted to inter-harmonic sources, and then the interharmonics assessment is considered with particular attention to the problem of the frequency resolution and of the computational burden associated with the analysis of periodic steady-state waveforms.

TL;DR: This paper represents Part I of a two-part article which summarizes the probabilistic aspects of harmonics in electric distribution systems and various ways to describe recorded data in statistical terms.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors review the common practice and analytical models for the representation of aggregate linear load in harmonic propagation and distortion studies and recommend a comprehensive modeling approach that accounts for all major components of the modern load including electronic load and background distortion.

TL;DR: In this article, the modeling of harmonic sources with nonlinear voltage-current characteristics such as transformers, iron-core reactors, rotating machines, arc furnaces, energy efficient lightings, and some household electronic appliances are reviewed.
