• Total Harmonic Distortion of current THDi in %.

THD_i = 100 x (sqrt( (iH2)²+ (iH3)² + (iH4)² +…+ (iHn)² ) ) / iH1

• Total Harmonic Distortion of current THDv in %.

THD_v = 100 x (sqrt( (vH2)²+ (vH3)² + (vH4)² +…+ (vHn)² ) ) / vH1

• Total Harmonic Distortion of voltage THDv in %.

Individual Harmonic Distortion HD_i(%) = 100 x ( H_i / H₁ )

Linear Loads:-
A linear load is a load that generates a current waveform identical to the input voltage waveform. In other words, a load is said to be linear when the current drawn has the same waveform as the voltage across its terminals.

Non-linear Loads:-
A non-linear load is a load that generates a current waveform which is not following the voltage waveform. In other words, a load is said to be non-linear when the relation between the current and voltage is non-linear.

E.g. When a sinusoidal voltage is applied and the loads draw non-sinusoidal current then it is said that the load is a non-linear load.

Examples of Non-linear loads:-
1. Discharge lamps.
2. Fluorescent Lamps.
3. Video Monitor
4. Computer Hardware.
5. Variable Drives.
6. AC/DC Converters, etc.

CONSEQUENCES OF NON-LINEAR LOADS:-
– Increase in distortion on the distribution systems.
– High current in system neutral.
– Increase in current carrying conductor size.
– Derating of power source, transformer, and distribution network.
– Malfunctioning of protective devices due to the unpredictable nature of system current.
