10. 90 300 6 result shows that these conditions the system transformer capacitor bank has the parallel resonance frequency of 300Hz Nx50Hz This means likely amplification of 5 7 harmonic current The most convenient solution to avoid this is the detuned filter formed introducing a filter reactor in series with the capacitors making this more complex resonant circuit but with the desired feature of having a resonance frequency below the first existing harmonic Transformer Detuned capacitor bank No linear load With this type of solution the parallel resonance frequency is modified from to Normally the resonance frequency between the capacitor and the series reactance is shifted lower than 250Hz and it is generally between 135Hz and 210Hz The lower frequencies correspond to higher harmonic loads The installation of a reactance in series with the capacitor bank produces a series resonance frequency 1 2 n NL C If a harmonic current with the same frequency of the resonance in series exists this one will be totally absorbed by the system capacitors reactors without any effect on the network The realisation of a tuned passive filter is based on this simple principle This application is required when we want the reduction of the total distortion in current THD on the system 2 E THD cUm 5 Component at the fundamental
