The Benefits of Harmonic Filters are many, including the following:

  • Preventing premature equipment failure
  • Preventing fires due to inductive heating and overload
  • Preventing of blinking of incandescent lights due to supply transformer saturation
  • Preventing capacitor failure due to harmonic resonance
  • Preventing circuit breakers tripping, fuses blowing due to inductive heating and overload
  • Preventing computer malfunction or lock up due to voltage distortion
  • Preventing conductor failure due to inductive heating
  • Preventing electronic equipment from shutting down unexpectedly due to voltage distortion
  • Preventing flickering of fluorescent lights due to supply transformer saturation
  • Preventing motor failures (overheating) due to voltage drops
  • Preventing inflated kWh costs due to all of the above
  • Preventing neutral conductor and terminal failures due to additive triple currents
  • Preventing electromagnetic load failures due to inductive heating
  • Preventing overheating of metal enclosures due to inductive heating
  • Preventing power interference on voice communication due to harmonic noise
  • Preventing transformer failures due to inductive heating
  • Reducing the risk of electrical fires is likely eventually to become actionable in terms of reduced P&C (or Homeowners’) Insurance.
    Oh and by the way, it pays for itself with electrical savings usually in under 1-2 years, sometimes less.
