The triplen harmonics are defined as the odd multiples of the 3rd harmonic (ex. 3rd, 9th, 15th, 21st etc.). Triplen harmonics are of particular concern because they are zero sequence harmonics, unlike the fundamental, which is positive sequence. The consequence of this fact is that the magnitude of these currents on the 3 phases are additive in the neutral. This can lead to very large currents circulating in the neutral, and unless the neutral is sufficiently oversized this can present a fire hazard. These currents can also circulate in the transformer causing significant overheating there too. Single-phase power supplies for equipment such as electronic ballasts and PCs are the most significant source of Triplen harmonics

What are harmonics in a complex waveform?
Scroll down to related links and look at "Calculations of Harmonics from Fundamental Frequency".
Sources of harmonics?
Harmonics is multiple of fundamental frequency. Spurious is not related to fundamental frequency but it is observed at the output spectrum. Harmonics are generated due to non-linearity of the device. Harmonics can generate spurious. As an example harmonics can produce resonance with mechanical box internal structure and can generate spurious. Harmonics generally generated from TCXO & frequency multipliers. If amplifier is non-linear, this will also generate harmonics. But harmonics very near to carrier generally generates interference to modulating signals. We design final power amplifier as a class AB amplifier to get more output power and better efficiency and also to minimize output power variation with temperature. Since it is non linear amplifier it generates harmonics but it will be very far from carrier and can be filtered easily. See the link for detail :- http://harshit.org/spurious and harmonics.pdf
Why even harmonics are not present in push pull amplifier?
Symmetrical push/pull circuits must cancel even ordered harmonics, like f2, f4, f6 and therefore promote odd ordered harmonics, like (f1), f3, f5 when driven into the nonlinear range.
Why is there a harmonics when there is no load?
Harmonics is electric current or voltages that are part of the power system as a result of nonlinear electric loads. If there is no load and a harmonic is present it can present because of a rectifier in the system.
What is the fundamental frequency?
For a waveform containing harmonics, the harmonic frequencies are multiples of what is known as the 'fundamental' frequency. For example, for a waveform that contains 'third harmonics', the fundamental frequency is one-third the frequency of the harmonics. The fundamental frequency of vocal folds the speech mechanism as sound generator.
What are triplen currents?
Ref: Website of Hershey Energy Systems Triplen Harmonics - The triplen harmonics, in alternating current power systems, are defined as the odd multiples of the 3rd harmonic (ex. 3rd, 9th, 15th, 21st etc.). Triplen harmonics are of particular concern because they are zero sequence harmonics, unlike the fundamental, which is positive sequence. The consequence of this fact is that the magnitude of these currents on the 3 phases are additive in the neutral. Edited the original to add: ", in alternating current power systems, "
What is idmt over current relay with different plug setting multiplier?
Any nonlinear load on a system generates harmonics. Exampes are the magnetic core of a transformer or equipment which uses rectifiers to produce direct current. The triplen harmonics are unpopular because they add on a three-phase system, so they produce current in the neutral, which a three-phase system in balance does not.
What is the term harmonic when refering to a three phase transformer?
A problem arises in 3-phase systems when the loads draw harmonic currents. This can happen with a load like a TV set which contains rectifiers to produce a dc supply for its electronic circuits. The load current waveform is not a perfect sine wave and it can be analysed in the frequency domain as the sum of a fundamental current at 50 Hz (in Europe) and harmonics at 100, 150, 200, 250 Hz etc. This is done by Fourier analysis. The triplen harmonics are the odd-multiples of 3, in other words the 3rd, 9th, 15th etc. and cause problems in 3-phase systems. In a balanced 3-phase 4-wire system there is zero current in the neutral wire, but when there are triplen harmonics in the load current, there is current in the neutral even when the currents are balanced (i.e. equal in all three phases), because the triplen currents add while the fundamental-frequency currents cancel out in the neutral. Unnecessary currents cause additional losses in the power transmission network and therefore transmission engineers try to minimise them.
What guitar has the best harmonics?
There are no best harmonics.
When was Psy-Harmonics created?
Psy-Harmonics was created in 1993.
When did Sigma Harmonics happen?
Sigma Harmonics happened in 2008.
Why the harmonics are multiples of fundamental frequency?
Because that is how harmonics are defined!
What is the difference between harmonic and transients?
harmonics nothing but harmonics...............
Is odd harmonics present in push pull amplifier?
Odd harmonics are theoretically the only harmonics that are produced by a push-pull amplifier, and even the level of odd harmonics should be very low.
When was Sigma Harmonics created?
Sigma Harmonics was created on 2008-08-21.
What are harmonics in power distribution system?
Harmonics are a multiple of the fundamental frequency. If the power frequency is 60Hz, harmonics occur at 120Hz, 180Hz, 240Hz, etc.
Why harmonics present in a signal?
if a signal is not a pure sine wave it must contain harmonics
