Anybody ever designed / installed / used a harmonic mitigating transformer? If so What did you think? Any practical concerns or problems I need to be aware of. What about the extra costs?
I have a commercial facility with all of the electronics loads segregated from the other loads in subpanels. I have always used K rated transformers and 200% neutrals to supply these panels in order to survive the harmonics. However, I have been considering going with harmonic mitigating transformers in hopes of actually reducing the harmonics in the system. I am curious as to what are the down sides of doing this.
P.S. I got a new photo for the profile. Thought you all would enjoy.
