| Title: | EXCESSIVE NEUTRAL CURRENTS IN THREE-PHASE FLUORESCENT LIGHTING CIRCUITS. | Authors: | Liew, A.C. | Issue Date: | 1987 | Citation: | Liew, A.C. (1987). EXCESSIVE NEUTRAL CURRENTS IN THREE-PHASE FLUORESCENT LIGHTING CIRCUITS.. Conference Record - IAS Annual Meeting (IEEE Industry Applications Society) : 1364-1371. ScholarBank@NUS Repository. | Abstract: | Causes for excessive neutral currents amounting to 75% and 157% of phase current values in two installations supplying predominantly fluorescent lighting circuits have been identified. These neutral currents are accounted for by three main components; fundamental third-phase current unbalance, third-harmonic currents caused by saturation of ballasts, and more third-harmonic current caused by third-harmonic voltage waveform distortion in the supply. Solutions to overcome the problem are outlined, including a scheme that cancels third-harmonic currents along a common neutral conductor in the form of a six-phase system supplied by two transformers connected in antiphase. | Source Title: | Conference Record - IAS Annual Meeting (IEEE Industry Applications Society) | URI: | http://scholarbank.nus.edu.sg/handle/10635/72619 | ISSN: | 01972618 |
