Abstract: The proliferation of nonlinear electronic loads is increasing day by day, and it can anticipate an influx of newer technologies in this domain in the future. This article focuses on the impacts of various home nonlinear electric equipment on the power quality of electrical distribution system. It was studied the influence of operating mode on the harmonic pollution generated by nonlinear home appliances operating in an isolated mode, using the CA 8334B three-phase power quality analyzer. Although home electric appliances are low power receivers, the cumulative effect produced by a large number of small harmonic sources can be substantial.
