Power Electronics and Drives

  1. A 3-phase Voltage Source Inverter is operated in 180° conduction mode. Which one of the following statements is true?
    1. Both pole-voltage and line-voltage will have 3rd harmonic components
    2. Pole-voltage will have 3rd harmonic component but line-voltage will be free from 3rd harmonic
    3. Line-voltage will have 3rd harmonic component but pole-voltage will be free from 3rd harmonic
    4. Both pole-voltage and line-voltage will be free from 3rd harmonic components
Correct Option: B

Line voltage,

For n = 3, VL = 0. as cos
= 0
6

Pole voltage,

For n = 3, VP ≠ 0.
Hence it is not free from third hormonics.
