Ia / Ib / Ic CREST FACTOR: The crest factor describes how much the load current can vary from a pure sine
wave while maintaining the system’s full rating. A completely linear load (pure sine wave) has a crest factor of
(
), which is the ratio of the peak value of sine wave to its rms value. Typically, the crest factor can
range from
to 2.5.
Ia/Ib/Ic THDF: Transformer Harmonic Derating Factor (THDF), also known as CBEMA factor, is defined as the
crest factor of a pure sine wave (
) divided by the measured crest factor. This method is useful in cases
where lower order harmonics are dominant. In a case where higher order harmonics are present, it may be
necessary to use a more precise method (K-factor) of calculating the derating factor. This method also does
not take into consideration the losses associated with rated eddy current in the transformer. The PQMPC soft-
ware provides the K-factor method of calculating the derating factor, which is defined on a per unit basis as fol-
lows:
