Use of Simple Linear Regression Models to Analyze the Contribution of Non-linear Loads in the Harmonic Distortions of Voltage in an Electric System Bus: Case Study

Abstract

A new harmonic data distribution window was developed, through the collection of data from the distribution network, in a medium voltage substation of level 13.8 kV. The objective of this article is to obtain a study on the energy for the consumer units (UCs), for a minimum period of 7 consecutive days according to the PRODIST, electrical system. The harmonics are not as harmful for firms as for power distribution company. A technique developed of this article is a linear regression technique, which is a construction of parametric models and a mathematical analysis. This is an article published and applied in the practice of case studies of harmonic analysis of electric energy distribution systems through linear regression analysis, obtaining great results in the study, thus validating an applied technique in harmonic analysis of electric power distribution systems.
