2.9.4 General Aspects of Harmonics Emission
A frequency converter takes up a non-sinusoidal current from mains,
which increases the input current I
RMS
. A non-sinusoidal current is trans-
formed by means of a Fourier analysis and split up into sine-wave cur-
rents with different frequencies, i.e. different harmonic currents I
N
with
50 Hz as the basic frequency:

The harmonics do not affect the power consumption directly but increase
the heat losses in the installation (transformer, cables). Consequently, in
