Tony is a professional engineer, member of IEEE and has published various papers on power quality.
It is commonly known that conventional transformers and neutral conductors can become overloaded and hot due to harmonics generated by computer equipment and other non-linear loads. Triplen current harmonics (mainly 3rd and 9th) sum arithmetically in the neutral and circulate in the primary windings of transformers. A simple and effective solution being commonly applied is [...]
