Abstract

Abstract : With the large‐scale deployment of power electronic equipment, harmonic sources in the power system are gradually increasing. Traditional harmonic source location methods are inaccurate and they usually require prior information of the location, which is difficult to obtain. This study presents a novel method of harmonic source location that can use less prior information to accurately locate the location of harmonic sources. First, a linear screening criterion is constructed using sparse component analysis. Then, the source signals separated by complex independent component analysis are filtered by linear and non‐Gaussian secondary screening, improving the accuracy of source signals and mixing matrix. Finally, the precise location of the harmonic is obtained by matching the mixing matrix with the columns of the matrix, which related to the system topology. Three IEEE systems are used to validate the proposed method. The simulation results show the high accuracy of the proposed method in the harmonic source location.
